WESLEYAN COLLEGE EDUCATES
DAUGHTERS, GRAND DAUGH
TERS AND GREAT- GRAND
DAUGHTERS
Wesleyan College is unique among
colleges for women in being able to
claim six girls in the freshman class
entering this year whose great
grandmothers were graduated from
Wesleyan.
Miss Sarah Louise Turner, Co
lumbus, and Miss Winett Turner,
Thomasville, not only are great
granddaughters of Mrs. Ella Pierce
Turner, who was a founder of Al
pha Delta Pi sorority and was gradu
ated in the class of 1852, but they
also are direct descendants of Bishop
George Foster Pierce, who was the
first president of the college.
Miss Adurline Tompkins, Sanders
ville, is the great granddaughter of
Mrs. Polly Coley Simpson of the
class of 1859. Mis. Simpson lived to
be 93 years old and was one of the
oldest living alumnae.
Other great-granddaughters of
graduates are Miss Milly Wagnon,
Atlanta; Miss Dorothy Benbow, Lu
verne, Ala., and Miss Loulie Hodges,
Macon.
Nine of this year’s new girls are
granddaughters of the alumnae. Miss
Eloise Ainsworth, granddaughter of
Bishop W. N. Ainsworth, chairman
of Wesleyan trustees, entered school
on the 50th anniversary of her
grandmother's entry and the 20th
anniversary of her mother’s fresh
man year at Wesleyan.
‘Captain H. B. Payne of Elberton
has one pecan tree which he values
at SBOO, and says it is worth that
much of anybody’s money. It was
planted 17 years ago, and this year
produced 200 pounds of nuts. Cap
tain Payne has one of the first com
mercial groves that was planted in
this section of the state.

HIS WILL EVIDENCED HIS
GRATITUDE
Mr. Carson, a wealthy San Fran
cisco business man who, when it
came time for him to die, had neith
er chick nor child to leave his mon
ey to, owned some $1,800,000 worth
of this world’s goods, and he didn’t
quite like the idea of handing it all
in a lump sum to some impersonal
philanthropic organization.
So when he sat down to make
out his will he simply wrote the
names of everybody who had been
kind to him, everybody whose cour
tesy, efficiency or helpfulness had
made his life a little pleasanter—
and divided his bequests among all
of them.
The 34 people who worked for
him all got bequests. The maids,
janitors, bellhops, waiters and eleva
tor boys at his hotel got bequests;
so did the employes of the country
club where he had played golf, peo
ple in the hospitals where he had
been a patient, the church he attend
ed, the university from which he had
been graduated, and so on.
Altogether, more than 100 people
were named in his will, for amounts
varying from SSOO to SIO,OOO.
There is a sort of moving picture
romanticism about this will, of
course, and earnest thinkers will no
doubt say that the money would
have “done more good” if it had all
gone to some worthy cause.

life expectancy shows a gain. Well,

sity team defeated their opponents,
29-13; while the Maysville Midgets

Roosevelt Permits Use Of Birthday
For Paralysis Benefit
Washington.—President Roosevelt
Monday authorized the use of his
fifty-fifth birthday next January 30
as a day for raising funds to help
finance the war against infantile
paralysis.
The authorization was given the
newly formed National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis, instead of
the Warm Springs, Ga., Founda
tion, benefactor in previous years.
The latter will arrange the plans for
the 1938 celebration because the
national organization has not been
completed.

.Printer Can’t Read, But ’Sure*
Sets Type
Centreville, Miss. Charles G.
Grubb, owner-editor of the Centre
ville Jeffersonian, said that Joe Lee,
23-year-old negro, can’t read or
write but he “sure can set type.”
Joe has been a typesetter on the
weekly for five years. He “reads’*
copy by the shape of each character,
and doesn’t even hesitate at “sul
fanilamide,” Editor Grubb declared.
His boss said Joe is one of those
printers who “follows copy even it
it takes him up the stovepipe,” and
has difficulty only in dividing words
properly at the ends of lines. He
can’t write his name, but has learn
ed to spell “Centreville” and “Mis

Shaft Erected To Adam Near
Columbia, Matching One
Dedicated to Eve
Columbia, S. C.—And now—a
monument to Adam.
A decade ago Paragrapher Robert
Quillen erected a memorial to Eve
at Fountain Inn, up-state.
So, after these long years, Julius
Walker, Columbus real estate man,
decided to do something for Adam.
He erected, at his country place
near here, a shaft to Adam’s mem
ory.
The monument is in the form of
a white column, and at the base is
the word, “Adam.”
Atop the column is a concrete ap
ple, from which two bites have been
taken.
Also, in plain view at the top of
the shaft, is a concrete serpent.
At the unveiling of the memorial,
forty-five guests attended and join
ed in singing, “Yield Not to Temp
tation.”

Ice Advertising To Increase In ’3&
Cleveland. —Harley Hust, adver
tising director of the National As
sociation of Ice Industries, told the
association’s annual convention the
ice industry would spend approxi
mately $2,500,000 for 1938 adver
tising, an increase of 25 per cent
over the previous year.
Hust urged the executives to in
crease advertising in their local
newspapers.
He credited advertising for a
large part in the sale of more than
600,000 units of ice-using equipment
in 1937, a 5 per cent rise over 1936.
GEORGIA TWINS NINETY-THREE
Dalton, Ga., Nov. 9.—Twins who
heard Robert Toombs in 1860 prom
ise to drink every drop of blood
shed in secession, and then in 1937
joined in the centennial festival
marking Dalton’s founding, Monday
celebrated their ninety-third birthday
separately.
Mrs. Louise Candler McCamy, of
Dalton, was guest at a simple party
while a birthday cake and
“nothing else special” featured
events at the home of Mrs. June
Candler Garrett, of 1003 Washing
ton Street, Atlanta.
Mrs. McCamy and Mrs. Garrett,
members of one of Georgia’s most
prominent families, are cousins of
Asa Candler, founder of the Coca-
Cola Company; Bishop Warren
Candler and Judge John S. Candler.
They have no formula for long life
or happiness, but agree on one
thought:
“Girls today are given too much
worldly education and are not
taught enough about making a
home.”
