of the Club Collect in unison.
Eleven members answered the
roll and four visitors were wel
comed. The treasurer. Mrs.
Gene Whatley reported Two
hundred forty-seven dollars
and eighteen cents balance in
the treasurery. The club voted
to give one hundred fifty dol
lars to the Science department
at Palmer Stone School. The
club will give ten dollars to
the local Cub Pack 211 to be
used to defray expenses of the
annual Blue and Gold Ban
quet. Mrs. Charles Ellis an
nounced changes in the hostess
and program committees due
to the drop of two members.
Mrs. John Burson announced a
Turkey Supper to be held at
the Palmer Stone School, spon
sored by the P.T.A. on Friday
evening to raise funds to re
place equipment lost in the
fire.
At the close of the business
meeting Mrs. Webb turned the
meeting over to Mrs. John Bur
son, Program Chairman for
the month. Mrs. Burson intro
duced Prof. W. A. (Squire)
Carlton and Mrs. Carlton. Mr.
Carlton in his own inimitable
way reviewed his new book
‘ln Memory of Old Emory”.
Mr. Carlton stated his book is
in the hand., of the publishers
but he expects it to go on sale
Alumni Day at Emory-at-Ox
ford. In his book Prof. Carlton
recalls in a delightful and hu
morous way life on the Emory
Campus from 1910-1913.
He begins with a vivid des
cription of Oxford campus in
1910. No sidewalks, no elec
tricity, no autos, no COEDS
and one Dormitory, Marvin
Hall. All students not able to
get into the dormitory were
housed in cabins —his was giv
en the Name Angel’s Retreat.
He tells of the business estab
lishments of the time Frank
Hendersons Store, the only one
still standing now houses the
local Post Office, Stone’s Store,
perhaps the favorite hangout,
Bill Burke’s Arcade and Jim
Rawlin’s Barber Shop where
the boys gathered to swap the
latest news and jokes.
The Covington-Oxford Tran
sit Co.’s mule drawn street car
THE COVINGTON NEWS
provided passenger and mail
service between Oxford and ।
Covington for ten cents a trip, j
This was operated by Mr. Tom
Byrd who later became the
Postmaster. The curiculum j
emphassis was on the classics,
Greek and Latin. He speaks
with admiration and deep af
fection for Doctors Peppier,
Turner, Smith, Bonnell, Stone
and Prof. Peed, who guided
them through their studies and
character formations. His de
scription of the 1913 gradua
tion ceremonies is so vivid one
can see the Japanese Lanterns
swinging in the trees, the love
ly female visitors strolling un
der the shade trees and hear
the Big Brass Band. Many
prominent men in the fields of
diplomacy, law, medicine, re
ligion and education have gone
out from Old Emory to make
their mark in the world and
never to be forgotten.
Everyone hearing this review
will surely w’ant to get the book |
to enjoy it in it’s entirety.
A social half followed the
program, the hostess served ma- .
croon pie a’lamode and coffee i
and toasted nuts.

“If from cherished childhood
scenes
Fate and fortune Lave brought
you here,
Ind your heart still homeward
leans;
Remember —New friends with
time grow dear.
Your joys, your sorrows are of
ours a part,
So. help us to know you that
we may share
This experience of Life, with
open heart;
Welcome Neighbor! We’re glad
you are here.”
The slogan relative to Edu
cation, “It doesn’t cost, it pays”,
is also applic a b 1 e to true
friendship. Any amount of time
and effort expended in culti
vating friendship, which after
all is practical application of
the Golden Rule, pays the lar
gest dividends in happiness, of
any similar investment-finan
cial or otherwise.
So, we welcome the oppor- ;
tunity of making new friends,
and facing the fact that good
relations in the human family
begin with the individual ef
fort.
This week our new neighbors
are not altogether “newcomers”
since they have lived in Cov
ington once before. Mr. and
Mrs. Joe Daniel and their son,
John Nevin, 11, have recently
moved from Calhoun to make ,
their home at 208 Church St.
Mr. Daniel, who is now a
member of the Covington News
personnel, is a native of Doug
lasville; and finds reading and
fishing his most enjoyable hob
bies.
Mrs. Daniel, who claims Cal- ’
houn as her home town, names
homemaking as her prime hob
by, and takes an active inter
est in her church and its orga
nizations.
The Daniels are finding a
warm welcome in the First
Baptist Church of which they
are members, as well as in the
other areas of our community
life.

Mrs. Doyle Bailey Was Hostess to
Salem Methodist Church WSCS Meet
The home of Mrs Doyle Bai
ley was the scene of Salem
Methodist Church’s WSCS
meeting on February 14. The
meeting was called to order by
the preseident, who gave a
word of welcome to each one.
Mrs. Bailey greeted the mem
bers upon arrival with words
of welcome.
Mrs. Douglas Robertson gave
a beautiful devotion, using
Luke 16:9 as the scriptural
background for the devotion
al. “Kindness” was the theme
of the devotion. Mrs. Robert
son closed with a reading en
titled, "I Shall Not Pass This
Way Again". The opening song
of the meeting was "Others”,
with Mrs. Hoyt Bailey leading
the opening prayer.
Eleven members answered
roll call by repeating verses of
.scripture. Minutes of the Jan
uary meeting were read and
approved. The treasurer’s re
poort was given and during the
business session Mrs. Burns
read letters listing special days.
The study, "Latin America
Speaks”, was discussed and
each member who attended the
study expressed thanks to Rev.
