"VOLUME 4, NO. 20
DEMONSTATION CLUB TO
BE ORGANIZED
The ladies at Chandler’s are
making plans to organize a De
monstration Club in our commun
ity. Already we have seen the need
of such a club to which we can
take ou. every-day household pro
blems for study and solution. Al
though as yet we have no organi
zation, Miss Rose Dillard, our
County Demonstrator, has con
sented to meet with us twice each
month and give demonstrations on
subjects in which we are deeply
interested.
Our first meeting was held last
Thursday, July 10th, at the home
of Mrs. Sells. We heard a lecture
on typhoid fever which was fol
lowed by a demonstration on In
valid Cookery. Some of the gener
al points stressed on serving on in
valids diet were these:
1. Do not depend on the patients
appetite
2. Cook food well.
3. Garnish and serve attractive
ly-
4. Avoid monotony when possi
ble by serving in different ways.
5. Serve on small dishes and not
in too large amounts.
(i. Have things intended to be
hot, hot.
7. Serve things intended to be
cold, cold, but not ice-cold.
8. Use the best linen and china.
9. Arrange the tray just as a
place at the table, being careful
not to crow'd things.
10. Remove the tray as soon
as the patient has finished eating.
11. Never allow the children to
finish up any dainty left by an in
valid.
Our next meeting will be held at
the home of Mrs. Will Chandler on
Friday August Ist, promptly at
3:30 p. m. new time. At that time
Miss Dillard will give a demon
stration on beverages which prom
isese to be very interesting and
helpful. Be sure to attend this
meeting if you are within reach.

FIRST WHITE HOUSE OF THE
CONFEDERACY TO BE PRE
SERVED.
Jefferson Davis Home at Montgo
mery Purchased by Alabama
Women From Render Heirs at
LaGrange, Ga.
Montgomery, Ala., July 14. —
The first white house association
of Montgomery now owns the
building at the southwest corner
of Lee and Montgomery streets in
this city known as “the first white
house of the confederacy,” ac
cording to reliable information ob
tained tonight.
Mrs. Belle Allen Ross, at Mont
gomery, secretary of the TTrst
White House association, returned
to Montgomery late Monday night
from LaGrange, Ga., where she
spent the day in conference with
heirs of the Render estate, former
owners of the property. Mrs. Ross
said that she could not make an
official statement until * meeting
of the association had been held
and the matter presented to the
members.
It is understood that the First
White House association only
owns the building but it. is possible
that, with the assistance of the
Alabama legislature, which Mon
day appointed a joint committee
of the senate and house to see
what could be done toward saving
the property, an effort will be
made to purchase the land on
which the house is located.
Reports that th eAlabama divi
sion of the Daughters of the Con
federacy were trying to save the
property are said by members of
the First White House association
to he erroneous. The work was or
iginally taken up by that body hut
later the First White HouslT asso
ciation was organized and charter
ed by the legislature to take over
the work. Since that time the asso
ciation has been actively but
quietly at work with the result
that it now owns the building and
it has been saved to the people of
the south as an historic structure.
