her recent appearance in Eggleston
Hall, Atlanta, before a large and
critical audience. At this concert
she presented an ambitious program,
handling every number honestly, and
with that total absence of slurs which
marks the performance of an ama
teur. Hei' Bach numbers were play
ed with an agility and clarity which
displayed a vivid imagination. Her
Greig was charming, especially in
the wedding march which showed
the tinkle in the bells under deft
fingers. In McDowell she was espe
cially dramatic, handling the big 1
Etude with an intensity which was
a revelation to her hearers and show
ing that she has a potential future.
A remarkable feature of the concert
was that Miss Stovall nlayed her en-'

MARSHMALLOW ROAST IS
HELD AT PLAYGROUND.
One of the most enpoyable affairs
of the week was the marshmallow
roast held yesterday at the play-;
ground. About 150 were present on
this occasion. The children evinced
the greatest enthusiasm over the!
playground equipment which already'
has been installed for their amuse-J
ment. The greatest fun of all was;
the “slide” to which the children all'
flocked, and no merry-go-round ever
afforded more amusement than this
jolly exercise.
The sports were held on the lawn
of the playground under the direc
tion of Miss Wimans, who is teaching
the little folks how thoroughly to en
joy life through real and healthy fun.
The grownups enjoyed the afternoon!
as much as did the children, as was
exemplified by the number of older
people there. The tennis court has
been land off, and as soon as every
thing is completed, the older young
people may go any time and enjoy
a round of this healthful play. The
other equipment for the playground 5
is being rushed into place as rapidly!
as possible, and it is hoped soon to
see everything there in full swing. I
It is very gratifying to the snons-'
ors of the playground movement that
already 425 names of children have
been enrolled up to the present time,'
and many others are being added. |
This afternoon a play festival was
to be held at the playground, the
children placing into action the stor
ies as they were read to them. This)
is done to aid children in immediate!
interpretation of ideas as soon as they!
are presented. Many enjoyable fea
tures will be giveti daily, and chil-'
dren of Americus are availing them
selves of this opportunity for recrea-'
tion and pleasure.

PACE BILL FIRST
' OF 1920 SESSION
Would Get State Aid
For ( oiTsolidated
Schools Here
ATLANTA, 24—The first
bill to be introduced in the General
I Assembly of Georgia this session is
one by Stephen Pace, one of Sum
te,r s representatives, and it provid
ed for state aid for consolidated
schools in Sumter county.
Under the terms of a bill passed
by the legislature at its last session
consolidated schools in counties
where district agricultural schools
are located were denied state aid, and
it is to correct this condition that Mr.
Pace introduced his bill at the open
ing session. This state aid gives to
each consolidated school SSOO an
nually, where each school has a fac
ulty of four teachers, and where the
I consolidated school curriculum is
.such as to entitle its graduates to
enter the University of Georgia on
certificates, an additional SI,OOO is
contributed annually by the state.
The Pace bill has been received with
favor, and its early passage is -re
dicted.
The activity of the 1920 session
of the Georgia general assembly,
which convened yesterday, was con
fined to the house of representatives.

order by President S. L. Olive, re
ceived official notice from the gover
nor of the election of Senator Ken

Parker, of the 37th, and the new sen
ator was sworn in. No new business
was offered.
In the house there was a sharp in
terest in the balloting for a speaker
pro tern, to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of John W. Bale,
of Floyd. The candidates were L. C.
Brown, of Clarke county and J. Her

, won by 15 votes, the record on roll
call showing Millner 90 and Brown
75, immediately after which Mr.

tion be made unanimous.

MRS. J. K. WILLIAMS
Mrs. J. R. Williams died this morn
ing at her residence on Taylor street,!
death following an illness of only i
two days and being due to appolexy. |
She had resided in Americus many '
years, and announcement of her de-!
n.ise will come as a shock to her many!
friends here.
Mrs. Williams, who was the widow
of the late James R. Williams, who !
was solicitor general of the South- .
western judicial circuit twelve years, i
was 49 years of age, and a native of '
Schley county. She removed here I
with her husband from Ellaville and (
the family had long been prominent <
in social circles here. She is sur
vived by one son, J. R. Williams, Jr., i
who is known among his associates I
as “Dick’’ Williams, and who is em- ■
ployed in the Americus office of the j
American Railway Express Company.
Other relatives are a sister, Mrs. J. F.
Stewart; a half siter, Mrs. Clyde Hill,
an*’ two half brothers, Foster and oJe
Cheney, all cf Ellaville.
Mrs. Williams was a member of
the First Methodist church and was
especially interested in the mission
ary work of the congregation, being |
an active Christian woman and a
constant attendant at services in her
church. Oidy a few weeks ago she
was a member of a party of Ameri
cus folks who visited a number of
Florida points, and returned home,
apparently much benefitted by her
trip, although she had not complain
ed in any unusual degree before i
starting. A few days ago she visit- '
ed friends in Ellaville, where her j
husband and daughter. Miss Annie
Williams, are buried in the pretty
little cemeteery that is the pride
of the community.
The funeral will be held from the
First Methodist church Friday after
noon at 3 o’clock, conducted by Rev.
Bascom Anthony, of Macon, formerly
pastor here, and Rev. Guyton Fisher,
present pastor of the church. The
body will be taken to Ellaville for
burial.

other ponts.
