THE BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS. MAY S, 1917.
WOMAN’S PAGE
CHEROKEE CLUE.
The improvement and cultivation of
vacant lots; loose papers on the
streets; street sprinkling, and a clean
er town In every way were the topics
discussed at the last meeting of the
club, and a very helpful, enthusiastic
meeting it proved.
The chairman of civic improvement,
Mrs. J. R. Whitaker, invited her
chairmen from the various sections of
town to come and talk about local
conditions. No set program was ar
ranged, but none could have made a
stronger appeal than the simple get
ting down to facts as presented.
* * *
Mrs. J. W. Vaughan spoke of the
unsightly loose papers blowing over
the streets and yards. It was decided
to have a long pick made for exhibit,
the kind used so extensively in many
places, and to urge the housekeepers,
merchants and the city to have them
made and used. They are very simple
and inexpensive.
* * *
Mrs. Ed Strickland, Jr., spoke of the
many vacant lots on Bartow street
which might be available for cultiva
tion.
Mrs. J. N. Weems, chairman for
Cassville Road, Mrs. H. J. Jolly, Mrs.
Jack Hill, Mrs. Clark Griffin, Mrs. W.
W. Daves, Mrs. Conner Plttard, Mrs.
Elbert Shaw and others made Informal
talks.
A Few Strong impressions.
The general opinion was—and a
very positive opinion It seemed to bo
—that never before at this season had
there been so many mosquitoes in evi
dence in town. Thi6 means a situation
to he met and handled without delay,
or a season of illness will follow.
• • •
"Dust! Dust!” the women said.
Thereupon a motion was made and
carried unanimously to ask the mayor
and city commissioners to use the
street sprinkler a certain number of
blocks out from the public square. The
women strongly preferred oiling the
streets, but they would perhaps be
satisfied to have them well sprinkled.
* * •
Sanitary conditions at the depot
w ere spoken of by a non-resident mem
ber and a committee called on Mr.
Wofford following the meeting to find
out if the club could co-operate in any
way in his efforts to beautify the sta
tion and make it more sanitary.
* * *
A committee also called on Mr.
Landers, commissioner of parks, in
regard to certain nuisances which
have become noticeable in the city
parks.
* * *
The club women are always cordial
ly received when they appear before
Individuals or in their official capacity,
and it is very evident that the men
and women in Cartersville are work
ing together as never before to up
build the town.
The Red Cross movement was
brought before the club at Tuesday’s
meeting by the president, and Mrs. W,
W. Daves was appointed chairman to
form a local chapter under the aus

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT.
On account of the moving of the city
office to the new building, the wagons
were npt able to get the garbage this
Tuesday. But the wagons will be
around next Tuesday and, if the house
wives will cooperate, we can get the
trash moved. Mrs. Whitaker, chair
man of the committee urges all that
can to whitewash fences, out houses
and posts. It not only improves the ap
pearance of the premises but is more
sanitary.
A week or so ago we told of the
work of Miss Lyda Saxon on her
street. Mrs. J. M. Benson who has
charge of Gilmer street has also
started her campaign of clean up and
improvement. On a vacant lot on her
street she is going to have a tennis
court which will serve the double pur
pose of pleasure as well as beautifying
the street.

MARY ROBERTB RHINEHAftT.
All of us who admire a aovefl aat
value It often picture for ourselves
the personality back of the work. Per
baps no writer In America today is
more of a favorite than Mary Roberts
Rhinehart. As we read her dellghtfu
writings we want to know more anc
more about the author herself. As i
short story writer, as a war corres
pondent, and as a novilist, her versa
tile pen has endeared her to a mighty
public.
Last month two magazines affordec
us the opportunity to become person :
ally acquainted with this famous;
daughter of Pittsburg. Good Houst
Keeping in the April number gives ai
intimate glimpse of her in the various
phases of her active life. We are In \
troduced to her as a sports woman, t
loVer of the out of doers, as a writei
of great ability, and as a home maker
and a mother.
The Saturday Post of April 21st pre
sonts “The Altar of Freedom” by Mary
Roberts Rhinehart, an article so force
ful, so full of truth and ringing with j
issues of vital moment to every Amerl
can Mother that our hearts are thrill
ed. ‘‘Trained boys are necessary to I
meet the trained ranks of our enemy
if we wish to save lives dear to us,"
is her banner cry and is echoed by ev- j
ery Mother In the Union. Read these
articles and learn of this woman, of
whom America is justly proud, not on
ly as a writer but first of all as a
mother. E. G.
