‘W. R. C. ENTERTAIN AT
BIRTHDAY DINNER
Wednesday, September 7, the W,
R. C, ladies gave their usual bjrth
day dinner or supper to the W, R,
C. and G. A. R. including the Sons
of Veterans and the P. S. of A,
At about 4 o’clock they began to
gather at the W_ R, C. Hall and
though it was very warm about
forty-five partook of a fine picnic
supper,
As we listened to the fun and
laughter we realized that youth is
not the only time of fun and frolic,
At the closé of the meal we went
up to the large upper hall.
Mrs. Green said that it seemed
right and fitting that at gatherings
of this kind, that we sing our nation
al -anthem “The Star Spangled Ban
ner,” after which Mr. Cecil Abbott
sang two lovely solos, We listened
almost breathless as the words of
that dear song of the soldiers float
ed through the air, “Dear - Mother
Machree,” . could almost see the
American soldiers in the trenches.
We sincerely thank Mr. Abbott for
his kindness in adding to our en
joyment of the occasion and have
the promise of Mearing him again as
cooler weather comes on.
Owing to business Mr. Percy
Manning was not able to be present
but his good wife was there and
gave a very interesting talk of a
part of their trip to California, or
rather a part of the trip in and
around Los Angeles, Alhambra, etc
of the great viaduct costing over
Ywo million dollars and which sup
plies the city with fresh sparkling
water, then with her we almost went
to the Ben Hill picnic held near there
every year some time during August.
We sympathize with her that they
were not able to attend on account
bf not being able to swim so far in
ice cold water, The boat being in
Tault not' going when they expected.
She gave a spirited talk about Catalina
Island, describing the beautiful city
built around the Jovely bay and from
which the rocky lands rise more or
less abruptly, I think she said that
!there were 842 steps leading from the
bay up to the top fromt which a sp]e;n
did view of the island was to be en
joyed by those encrgetic enough to
climb to the top; she aiso spoke of
the fine golf course, where golfers
from all over the country gather. |
We 2]l listened with interest and
hoe to see at least a part of these
glories some time in the happy future,
Mrs, Manning alse sald further that
if we in Georgia would put the vim
and energy into, the work that we
could equal our sister state on the
western side of the great mountains,
in a great many products, Well, we
ourselves have seen what Florida can
do in orange raising and if being so
Inuch nearer we felt that perhaps life
wil] be worth living even if we never
have the bliss of going but still we
will hope to see the great Pacific sea,
She spoke of a number of oldtime
Fitzgerald people, A. P, Brown, W,
Church and others, but especially she

also of his father, who suffered a
slight troke of paralysis a short time
ago but who still wishes to come back

The Georgia Yam will find a place in every household
if the Georgia marketing agencies will use proper dilligence
and some brains in placing its virtues before the American
public. Already well established in the fzvor of tens of
thousands of the Northern boys who camped in Southern
Miltary Camps during the war, it is just necessary to re
vive the desire in the homes of those boys for the delicious
yams, which once were part of their army diet.
In their raw state, they are poor shippers, but cured
they will keep indefinitely—lt is this feature which will
make it possible to market them in the Northern Cities
