RECENT BRIDE IS
HONORED
Mrs- Joe Tex Johnson, re
cent bride, the former Miss
Julianne Davis, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Felix Davis, was
honored at a miscellaneous
bridal shower on Saturday
afternoon at the lovely coun

land McCann and Mrs. Doris
iHocker smith.
The guest register was kept
by Miss Patricia Williams of
Smyrna, a cousin of the hon
oree. Guests were invited to
the register by Mrs- Hunter
Davis.
Arrangements ot white
glads and mums were in the
reception rooms.
Mrs- Davis received with
her daughter. The bride was
beautiful in a green metallic
sheath afternoon dress
which she wore a corsage of
yellow mums. Mrs. Davis
dress was of beige with brown
metallic thread. Her corsage
was of bronze mums.
Guests were invited into the
dining room for tea. The table

linen and lace cloth. In the

a large crystal bowl. Crystal

ful and lovely gifts-
Many friends called during
the hours of tea to wish her
happiness and to see all of the
many lovely presents.
Active During Summer, Too
During the summer the 4-H
club was as active as ever. In
Jujie, I, along with the other
county winners, spent three
exciting days at district pro
ject achievement at Rock
Eagle 4-H Club center near
Eatonton.
I Each of us 4-H members
was given a pat on the back
and wish for good luck and off
•we went to enter the various
competitions of the projects,
i My project was Teen-Fare,
in which I prepared a main
dish meal and set it up to be
judged on the basis of appro
priateness, practicality, and
simplicity. Even though I did
not place I learned much from
this experience and hope that
I can go again next year, pre
pared to do even better.
I was also a voting dele
gate from this county and
helped to elect our district
officers- Rose Dutton, one of
our 4-H’ers lost presidency by
one vote and you can bet I
was really campaigning for
her. e .
At an impressive installa
tion ceremony the old officers
relinquished their titles and
i duties to the new officers and
challenged them to make the
coming year the best by guid
ing and magnitizing the forc
es of the 147,000 4-H’ers in
Georgia. ■
This is just one of the
many events in the life of a
4-H member. Yes, it means
work to be an active 4-H mem
ber, but the rewards are most
satisfying.

JENKINS TELLS OF TOUR
OF EUROPE
It’s cheaper to live in Italy,
France, or Germany than it
is in America. Room and
board for a day and night for
two is around SIO.OO.
The food is delicious. All
small cases serve food equal
to or better than our most
exquisite restaurants, and for
much less money.
But the most memorable
thing Dr. H. B. Jenkins re
calls from his recent tour of
Europe was the friendliness
of the people.
Dr. H. B- Jenkins told of
his tour at this week’s meet
ing of the Lions club. He and
Mrs. Jenkins and their sc/,
Brantley, spent the summer
visting in England, France,
Germany, Potrugal, and sev
eral other points of interest.
In the business session,

out and sell birthday calend
ers, by sale chairman Gil
Kelly. He said the deadline
has been extended until next
Tuesday and 200 more need to
be sold.

“This is the kind of ‘scrap’
we love to see,” Snell said.
Except for these two spots,
Shell expects to use the same
starting lineup that brought
victory in Colquitt.
Pelham operates from the
single wing, Snell says, and
he calls the Hornets’ Robert
Warren one of the better
backs in the region. He does
not weigh but 155 lbs., but he
runs hard, Snell added.
Admitting the Hornets are
a good club, the coach seems
to think his Indians have a
good chance to upset them.
“Our boys are looking bet
ter in running and blocking
this week than they have all
season, and we ought to have
a good chance to win,” Snell
commented.
