RECEPTION FOR* VISITORS
AT COMMUNITY HOUSE.
The Woman’s Club entertained the
visitors who attended the three-day
session of the Third District Agri
cultural and Mechanical college here
this week at a reception Wednesday
evening at the Community club house.
Mrs. Frank Sheffield gave an inter
esting talk on community play
grounds, following a short welcome
address. She spoke of the far-reach
ing good of the municipal play-

Mrs. Sheffield also stressed what the
federated clubs of America are do
ing for the children, realizing that
in the very young people are the
dominant principles that stand for fu
ture Americanism. She quoted Em
erson as saying that nothing great
could be achieved without enthusiasm,
and that this was just as potential
in play as in work. Nothing can
be accomplished in a half-hearted
manner, she declared, and her hear
ers were impressed with her deep
earnestness in child welfare.
Mrs. James Walker had charge of
the refreshment committee, and un
der her supervision, the service of the
evening was excellent. Two punch
tables were arranged in the reception
rooms, which were a bower of flow
ers, with bright-hued zinnias of the
mammoth variety, in combination
with other lovely midsummer blos
soms. One table was especially at
tractive with its flat arrangement of
flesh-colored, lilies arranged as a mat,
vjith sprays of delicate fern inter
woven. The other table was in yel
low, and at these Miss Mary Gnoss
pelius and Miss Pauline Broadhurst
served. Mrs. Marvin Everett, Mrs.
J. W. Harris and Mrs. James Walker
assisted Mrs. Sheffield in making the
event a happy occasion. Mrs. Har
ris was in charge of the program, on
which were Miss Melva Clark, Miss
Catherine Smith, Gordon Howell, and
a male quartet. Miss Clark ,sang a
number of selections, while Miss
Smith gave readings. Gordon How-,
ell sang. One of the most enjoyable
features of the program was the com
munity singing arranged by Mrs. Har-
ris.
Mr. Sherman gave a practical talk
on the benefit of play combined with
the work the rural clubs ar? do
ing. He praised the wonderful
strides that have been made in sur
burban localities by this method of
modern advertising. He congratulat
ed every boy and girl present upon
the enthusiasm with which they un
dertake the so-called hard tasks of
life, that of providing food for the
body. He encouraged them to pre
serve in their splendid endeavor,
and declared the future welfare of the
American nation depended upon
what food the body received. He il
lustrated the playground benefit by
practical demonstration of real play
ing, and it was inspiring to witness
the older people entering into the
games which children love in order
to appreciate what the joy of play
ing means. .
One particularly interesting fea
ture of the practical demonstration
was that of “assembling counties. ’
Mr. Sherman called the counties by
name, beginning with the largest, and
Muscogee county headed the list. As
the counties were called, those coming
from that county rose and formed in
line. After all the counties had been
named and their representatives plac
ed in line, a circle was formed with
in a circle, and thus arranged a
grand march was formed through the
rooms. This was verv imposing and
inspiring.
The visitors who attended the short
course, together with the heads of
economic departments, later express
ed their deep appreciation of the ef
forts of the ladies of the various
clubs who so generously donated their
time and endeavor to make the oc
casion a happy one.

you live a thousand years,
i “To sort of keep things lively in
this vale of human tears;
i “And here’s that I may live one
thousand years, tii.

No, a thousand less a day,
“For I should hate to live on
earth, and learn that you had
passed away.”
When the tea was poured Mrs. Eu
gene Boswell gave another original
toast as follows:
I “As we all know ’tis the Junior’s
delight,
“To make folks happy, cheerful
and bright,
“So we meet once a month and
I have loads of fun,
“When we get our reports and j

“Tonight Mrs. Jordan is giving
us a treat,
“And the juniors never refuse
to eat.
i “And then we want to show our
love for Mrs. Brown,
i “ ’Cause when she goes away our
I hearts will be cast down!
. “There will always be a corner
I in the Juniors for you,
“And we all want you to know
that our love is all true,
“But while we are together we’ll
be happy and gay,
I “And strive to please our Master
more every day.”
