A Tribute to
Mrs. Godfrey
In the early morning of Feb
ruary eleventh, our beloved
member Carolyn Hardee God
frey left our midst to enter in
to the joys of her Lord.
It is with saddened hearts
and bereft feelings that the
Covington Woman's Club
pauses to pay her tribute.
Mrs. Godfrey lived in Cov
ington for more than half a
century and worked with the
Woman's Club through its pro
jects for the betterment of the
community in cultural, social,
and civic affairs. Her philan
thropies and gifts of love are
beyond listing.
The guiding influence of
Mrs. Godfrey's life was her
church. She was instrumental
in the founding of a Christian
Service Church in Covington
and one in Madison. The words
“Let your light so shine before
men that they may see your
good works,” may truly be ap
plied to her.
It was the Club's apprecia
tion of this strong Christian
spirit that the club facilities
were open to her for her use
whenever she chose to have
meetings.
At an early age Mrs. God
frey began writing spiritual
poetry. She became the author
of several books and member
of the Atlanta Writers Club
and National Writers Club. Her
best known books being,
“Christmas Candle s,” “The
Christmas Fireplace,” and
“God’s Christmas Trees.”
The book “The Christmas
Fireplace,” was given to the
club the proceeds from its sale
to be used on club projects.
With the finish of her “life’s
book” coming so closely after
the Christmas season it seems
as if God in his graciousness
had given one more sacred and
symbolic reason to this faith-

Mankind owes a great debt
to Joseph Lister, for it is very
possible that the lives saved
by this brilliant surgeon's work
are numbered in the millions.
It was Lister who introduced
antisepsis less than a century
ago, and this means of prevent
ing infection removed the final
great stumbling block to mod
ern surgery.
In Lister's day, surgery was
a chancey and discouraging
proposition in that no matter
how fine the surgeon's talent
and despite careful planning,
patient mortality was alarming,
ly high due to post-surgery in.

chance, however, in having
