MEETING OF THE
FEDERATED CLUBS
The Lamar County Federation of
Woman’s Clubs met at Johns.tonville
Wednesday afternoon, October sth.
The meeting was hejd at the school
building, one of the most up-to-date
in the county.
A committe met members of the
Federation and visitors in the vesti
bule and extended a courteous wel
come. The spacious assembly room
was tastily decorated for the oc
casion, ferns and crimson dahlias
predominating.
Owing to the forethought of the
hostess club the large audience was
comfortably seated, chairs having
been placed in the isles and around
the rostrum.
The President, Mrs. George God
dard of Milner, called the meeting to
order and invited the presidents of
the clubs to take seats with the of
ficers of . the County Federation.
There are six clubs in the county
and all are showing marvelous
growth.
The address of welcome by Mrs.
J. B. Fleming of Johnstonville made
the clubs feel it was good to be
there and the feeling was echoed in
the happy response.
Mrs. R. C. Johnson of Zebulon,
president of the Sixth District Fed
eration, was introduced and greeted
with enthusiasm. Cooperation was
the key-note of her timely address.
Mss. W. A. Farley made an inter
esting talk on the responsibility of
mothers under new conditions.
A discussion on the duties of citi
zenship emphasized the duties near
est at hand and recommended that
the clubs nourish the ambition to be
come a power which can put men in
office on their own true worth.
The program was interspersed with
sweet music.
The most important business trans
acted was the annual election of of
ficers. The 'committee on nomina
tions, Mrs. Fleming of Johnstonville,
Mrs. Holmes, of Milner, and Mrs.
Reeves of Bamesville, found their
deliberations a difficult problem since
the six clubs can boast a member
ship of unusual ability. In nomi
nating Miss Mattie Tyus for Presi
dent the chairman stated that every
district in the county had an equal
claim on her time and talent and it
was merely a matter of convenience
that her home and office was in the
Barnesville district. The nomina
tion of Mrs. Grady Dumas as vice
president was well supported by the
great things she and her co-workers
have accomplished for the Redbone
club. Mrs. Goddard was nominated
for Secretary and Treasurer, which
proved much appreciation of her
faithful service since the organiza
tion of the Lamar Federation. The
nominees were unanimously elected.
The retiring officers were reward
ed with the repeated plaudit of duty
well done.
After adjournment the Johnston
ville club suddenly turned on a lovely
social affair. When delicious re
freshments were being served many
hand-clasps and happy greetings of
neighbors, friends and acquaintances
were exchanged and Hie good cheer
that prevailed were enough to make
such occasions worth while even if
weightier matters were not weighed
in the balance.
Mrs. J. M. Anderson offered a
resolution of thanks to the Johnston
ville club for its beautiful hospitality
which met with a wave of cheering
approval.
The next meeting of ,the Lamar
County Federation will meet at Mil
ner.
