tel Luncheon Feature
of Day’s Program.
By BELL BAYLESS
Staff Representative
A made-t Q-order day, the first spring
day of the year, greeted the Bartow
County . Thursday in its
third meeting, which was preceded by
a delightful luncheon at the Park hotel,
where out-of-town members were
guests of the Cartersville organizations
Mrs. Oscar Peeples, president of the
federation, at the head of the table, in
troduced the visitors to their hosts
with a witty summing up of the salient
points of each, till a spirit of camara
derie pervaded the whole group as it
repaired to the Cherokee club room for
the regular session. A charming fea
ture of the luncheon was the gift of
favors. Cherokee roses, the club flower,
made by Mrs. Pauf Akin, Mrs. R. H.
McGinnis and Mrs. Bob Renfros, com
mittee on arrangements.
Seated on the club rostrum were
S]*s. Peeples, president; Mrs. Irby
Sheats. vice president; Mrs. W. C.
Martin, president of the Seventh Dis
trict Federation of Women's Clubs;
Mrs. Claude Irby and Mrs,. Sproull
FoucKe, ex-presiderits.| This was the
first tim? the three district presidents
had ever been together, and it was con
sidered a happy omen for the success
of-<he County Federation, .which is an
entirely separate organization with no
affiliation to the cltjbs, and incidentally
with no duos or other obligations.
Mrs. Peeples' gavel fell at 2:20 p. m..
and the company joined in singing
“Blest be the Tie that Binds ’’ with
Mrs. Logan Vaughan playing the ac
companiment.
Mrs. T. R. Kendall, in a touching in
vocation, placed the federation in the
hands of the Almighty, after which
Mr. J. W. Vaughan' delivered an ad
dress of welcome replete with quota
tations from great writers, and filled
with illustrations and suggestions. Mr.
Vaughan is always unconventional and
has something to say that is worth
hearing.
Mrs. Sheats responded, includinig in
her remarks the statement that Eng
land has but one woman's club, with
above its club room door this motto:
“The world was made for women, too ”
She voiced the appreciation of the
county in being for the second time
guests of hospitable Cartersville.
The president then read the resig
nation of Mrs. Julia Veach Stewart as
secretary, which, on motion of Mrs
Shats", was accepted with regret. Mrs.
Wilbur’ Ham was appointed secretary
pro tern, and read minutes of the last
meeting, which was at Kingston, where
a “made in Georgia” dinner was also
served. This report included the con
stitution and by-laws of the federation
as well as the resolutions adopted,
which were for better schools in Bar
tow county, better trained teachers,
enforcement of compulsory attendance
law and playgrounds equipped for
Jjeaithful sport; better health condi
tions in the homes, with the employ
ment of a county purse throughout the
year; good roads; right living and
civic righteousness.
Mrs. W. C. Martin, on being present
ed, stated that Bartow and Cobb were
the only counties in the Seventh that
have such organizations; that the ba
sic needs of the county were the same
as the state federation. Sh*' told of a
club institute to be held at the state
university this summer, and urged the
women toattend, praised the commu
nity spiritshowlk. here, ■find invited all
to go to the district meeting in Austell,
April 22.
Mrs. Fouche spoke of the European
women's interest in the American club
women. She urged that clubs pay more
attention to beautifying their sur
roundlnigs, and as illustration spoke
of being in Japan during cherry blos
som time, which is one f the great
national festivals, when even the school
children spent their holiday writiing
poems under the trees. She also said
that the Japanese cherry blossoms are
not as beautiful as our wild crab-apple
blooms, .and lack their delicious per
fume. She mentioned the mango trees
the British government has planted
cn each side of the thousands of miles
of highways it has built in India, with
a caretaker stationed every ten miles.
The sales of the fruit of these trees
pays for the upkeep of the roads.
Cherry trees along Hungarian roads
are likewise profitable, and nut trees
might help some of our highway prob
lems in Georgia Mrs. Fouche urged
everyone to plant a tree, preferably a
flowering or fruit tree. Her assertion
that if Red Cross chapters only knew
how the millions of dollars sent abroad
had been squandered they would de
vote their efforts to home relief; and
warned of the danger of tmmigation—
from the standpoint of onp who has
watched the daily issuance (It more
than 500 passports for America.
Mrs. Irby told of library work, of the
Importance of school libraries, as no
school can be accredited unless the
pupifs have access to a library of at
least 500 books. She also made the
motion that future meetings should be
on the picnic order, each member tak
ing her own lunch, as the federation
would then fee] free to visit any com
munity in the county without being a
burden on the people, only asking the
use of the school house or perhaps a
shady grove in which to meet. One of
the best attended meetings the Seventh
District has ever had was on that plan
at Cass Station model school This
suggestion was looked upon with fa
vor by all except Miss Campie Haw
kins and the other #nembers of the
Stilesboro Improvement Club, who
came bringing an invitation for the
next meeting, stipulating, however, that
no lunches should be brought. This

Annual May-Day
Picnic May Fourth
At Old Stilesboro
Plans are now being made to have
one of the best programs ever carried
out at Stilesboro, when the annual May
day picnic will be held this year on
Saturday, May 5.
A feature of the day’s program wi i!
be the ' crowning of the Queen,” Miss
Doris Mae Taff. pretty young daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Joel S. Taff assuming
this rolt this year. She will have as
her maids Misses Mary Sue Jackson,
Fannie Lou Fitzsimmons, Lucille Tins
ley Ruby Taff and Della Camp.
The flower girls will be Misses Dor
othy Jaokpon and Mary Will Brandon,
while little Miss Lazette Henderson
will be the train-bearer.
The program, which begins at 11
a clock at the school house, is under
the auspices of the Stilesboro Village
Improvement Club, which has desig
nated Misses Ruth Auchmutsy, Callie
Jackson, Campie Hawkins Mrs.
Herbert Taff as the special committee
having it in charge.
Further details will be given in the
next issue of The Tribune-News.
invitation was accepted with apprecia
tion. Miss Hawkins said that Stiles
boro would hold its sixty-fourth an
nual picnic next month, and its tenth
chrysanthemum show in the fall. This
is a remarkable record for any com
munity.
The federation was honored by the
presence of Mrs. Paul Trammel, of Dal
ton, a prominent D. A. R„ and vice
president of the Dalton Woman s Club,
who spoke briefly; also Miss Emma
Crabb. president of the Rockmart Club,
who told of the completion ol their
clubhouse which Mrs. Pee
ples said was the most handsomely fur
nished in the state, including a grand
piano. Rockmart is to be congratulat
ed on its spirit of enterprise as well as
this accomplishment
M ss Shaelileford, of Calhoun, made
a brief talk, and Mrs. Simpson, of
Norih Carolina, was also a guest.
. Mrs. Edna Tate, of Fairmount, used
as' she is to meeting' concrete problems
of every-day life, laid before the bofHj,
a number of really big questions for
which, -he asked answers, things vital
to the well-being of women who were
less fortunate in Bartow, and neigh
boring counties, giving ideas along
which tlxe federation might shape its
line of work, As always, Mrs. Tate
has something'' to say that merits at
tention.
Mrs. Switzer, of Flex-A-Tile. fol
lowed with a similar experience which
she has had in the viciryty of that big
new enterprise, among the families of
its numerous employes. She told of the
interest the company takes in the pub
lic school there, stressing attendance
of all the children, and of organizing a
Sunday school that has forty-five mem
bers in the Bible class, with more in
’the primary department. It is indeed a
privilege to be one of those who start
something among old hills.
Mrs. Sheats spoke of the alarming
rate at which the young men and boys
are leaving this section for the North,
and urged that something should be
done to furnish them employment at
home as well as interest and recrea
tion. She called attention to the fact
that the city was constantly calling
for young men from the country; that
the really big things had been accom
plished mostly by country-reared men,
people who came not from families
where there were but one or two chil
dren, but where ix and eight children
were not uncommon.
Mrs. Cox, of Smithville district, said
her club has held three meetings this
year and had in diverse ways worked
to aid the school.
Mrs Backus, president of the P.-T.
A., mentioned a number of activities,
entertainments, gifts and projects, ail
tending to improve city school condi
tions. This organization is especially
active and resuorceful.
Mrs. Paul Akin told of supplying the
Cartersville High School with a library
containing more than 500 volumes.
When the cost of good reference books
is considered, S2O for a dictionary and
at'least $125 for an encyclopaedia, the
magnitude of the accomplishment will
be appreciated.
Mrs. Cunyus spoke of the aims of
the W. C. T. U., "a million names en
rolled in the United States showing
allegiance to temperance.”
Mrs. Bradley Howard, of the Pres
byterian church, suggested a Bible
study course in the schools.
Mrs. .lack Hill assured the federtt
tion of co-operation of the Baptist wo
men, as did members of the Methodist
and Episcopal churches.
Mrs W. W. Daves, chairman, read
several new resolutions prepared by
that committee, consisting of Mrs.
Backus, Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Irby
Henderson. These included the na
tional program for garden week with
the slogan. “Dive at home and eat at
the Same place”; and on* by Miss M. E.
Johnson, which urged the importance
of forrestry, the preservation of trees
and enforcement of laws in relation to
prevention of forest fires.
Several clubwomen told of visiting
the schools for which they were spon
sors. Mrs. Peeples mentioned the re
ception the Cherokee Club gave to the
county teachers, introducing teachers
to their sponsors and making them feel
welcome in Cartersville. This seems a
particularly wise movement on the
part of the clubs and should not be al
lowed to fall into disuse.
A standing vote of thanks was given
Mrs. Omer for so tastefully preparing
the luncheon, ere the president, with
her usual tact and skill, brought for
ward the different organizations which
represent 900 of Bartow county's pro
gressive wop-ien; and then announced
that the meeting stood adjourned, with
date for the next to be announced
through the press.

BASEBALL NOW
| A CERTAINTY;
MORE MONEY
IS IMPERATIVE
Believing the baseball fans of Car
lersville want a good brand of ball,
the directors named at the recent
meeting met Wednesday afternoon
and canvassed the returns from the
campaign to raise funds.
The} found that while a number
had contributed libel-ally, there are
others who have not yet been seen,
who ate expected to “do their bit.”
With that idea before them, the di
rectors feel that further donations
are imperative if the right sort of
baseball is to be played here this
year.
Harris Cope, the peppery athletic
director of Howard College, and who
piloted the local team last season so
successfully, has been asked to take
charge again this year. He will come
over during the week-end for a con
ference with the directors.
Some of the best players in the
s.ate are to be offered berths on the
Cartersv lie team, but pending the
success of negotiations now under
way, their names are not being di
vulged for perfectly obvious reasons.
If all the fans who have not yet
done so, will see that their names are
placed on the dotted line, with a
contribution, they can rest assured
they \yili have baseball this year of
the winning variety.
if you have not yet contributed—
obey that impulse.
Valuable Prizes Offered.
No little interest has been aroused
locally In the campaign to raise suffi
cient funds, and this interest has ex
tended far afield, as is evidenced by
the following letter received this week
from the Nashville (Tenn.) Rolle:
Mills, by Mr. P. C. Flemister, chairman
of the board of directors:
‘‘Dear Mr. Flemisier:
"Have just noted with interest in
The Tribune-News of April 9th,

2.000 CHICKENS,
AND MORE COMING,
SAYS M. UPSHAW
Find? White Leghorns
Are Best Suited to His
Needs—Getting More
Than 200 Eggs Daily.
Operating under the name of Mount
Pleasant Poultry Farm, Messrs, Mur
ray Upshaw and A. Y. Tilly are mak
ing good with poultry.
Starting with a few thoroughbred
birds i j few months ago, they now have
more than 2.000 head of chickens on
their farm, and 500 baby chick* are
expecte.i to arrive this week.
Mr.Upshaw bought for the Mt. Pleas
ant Poultry Farm the 340 hens sold at
the auction sale of property of the late
H. C. Stiles. He reports that he was
able to move the entire lot of White
Leghornr without losing a single one,
and they are now laying at the rate of
more than 200 eggs every day.
In addition to the 340 hens on this
poultry farm, he has two or three other
small lots, and also 1,000 baby chicks
about three weeks old, 500 haoy chicks,
about a week old, and during .he latter
part of this week expects tjje arrival
of 500 more, coming from the Missouri
Poultry Farms,
"So far," said Mr. Upshaw, “we have
had mighty good luck with our chick
ens, and have lost only a very few. We
are hoping to raise a majority of the
baby chicks, and we are confident we
will, since Mr. Tilley has shown much
ability in the handling of poultry. He
has sever, sons and two daughters, and
all of them are interested in poultry
raising. With such help, Mr. Tilley and
I feel confident we will be able to do
well with the poultry business.
"I am looking forward to the day
When Bartow county will be the ban
ner poultry county of the state. We
are doing everything we can, and hope
others will join us in raising White
Leghorn chickens, with an idea of sup
plying uniform eggs and poultry of the
same breed to the markets."
Mr. Upshaw has given much time
and thought to the- poultry business,
and naturally his experiment is being
watched- with much interest by poohry
fanciers and others.
