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.

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.

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.
