meeting . . and Gosh! I hope
they wifi let me go next year.
One of the things we are ver;
proud of is the fact that it was a
the suggestion of our own Mrs.
Homer Cook that hundreds oi
Farm Women from every section
of the state stood together . , .
with a prayer'in each heart . . .
and for the first time at one of
these meeting . . . gave the Pledge
of Allegiance to the Flag of the
United States of America . . . and
Oh my friends . . . you know as
well as the Office Boy . . . just i
what that prayer was ... in the
hearts of these Mothers who have
stalwart sons they have borne . .
and cared lor . . . loved and rear- j
ed to be the finest of the land . . .
May God bless each one of them
and keep our boys from war! Mrs.
Cook is to be commended for this
fine thought. She is a woman
who has for years made her way
into the hearts of all who knew
her . . . but now that our State
and Nation is bringing about a
program where Farm Women and
Girls and Boys can meet together
Cook r, __, • ■

hearts everywhere that same fine
spirit she has placed in the hearts
of those in her community. We
shall watch with love and pride
her progress, knowing our Com
munity and the State is enriched
by having her in our midst work
ing with Rural-Urban Women
everywhere.
Gosh! We watched three
ored boys bust a watermelon on
our wall and eat it . . . we wanted
some so bad . . . and up walked
Willie Nunnally from Oxford with
a huge / basket of 'he lovliest
flowers for us . . . but when
lifted the flowers unde neath was
a delicious watermelon grown by
her sister Hattie Sara who is ill
