ONE HUNDRED CLUB GIRLS IN
CARTERSVILLE FOR SHORT COURSE
Seventeen Clubs Repre
sented and Much In
t e r e st Manifested—
Trained Workers in
Charge of Three-Day
Session.
When the program for -the girls'
short course opened Wednesday morn
ing at the West Side school In Carters,
ville, ninety-two of Bartow county’s
club girls had enrolled for the course.
During the day Wednesday and Thurs
day, others came in, swelling the total
to more than one hundred.
Seventeen clubs, representing all
sections of the county, have members
in attendance on this course, and one
or two other clubs have signified their
intention to having delegates in at
tendance during the session.
After the preliminary exercises were
held. Meg. Francis J. Vaughan, who is
in charge of the extension work in
Bartow county, introduced Prof. Geo.
Firor, of the State Department Of Hor
ticulture. In a brief address, he told
the young ladies about the importance
of fruit on the farm, and said that it
was very little trouble to have or
chards on every farm, certainly suffi-
ciently large to provide the farm home
with all kinds of dainty fruits.
County Agent Cox followed Mr. Fi
ror and he outlined some of the pos
sibilities of club work. Miss Jessie
BurtorfT who is now engaged in exten
sion work in Floyd county, also spoke
along this line. Her remarks were
partJcularly happy and timely, and she
was given a most cordial hearing.
Miss Etta Colclough, bread special
ist from the S-iate College of Agricul
ture, was another speaker on Wednes
day’s program. This is one of the
most important phases of club activ
ities, and Miss Colqjough is considered
an autb#rity throughout the South, in
bread-making. The club girls are in
deed fortunte in having an opportunity
to hear her explanations about the
best ways to make .bread.
Mrs. 'Lein R. Mize, specialist in food
preservation, directed the canning ex
hibits, and demonstrated various ways
to preserve products of the orchard,
garden and farm. No one could listen
to her words of instruction without be
ing greatly benefited, and better pre
pared to carry on the duties incident
to home-making.
Miss Jeroline Thomson, home demon
stration agent for Whitfield county,
came down from Dalton Thursday, and
gave some very interesting lessons in
basket-making. This is an interesting
work, and Miss Thompson proved to
the club girls that they can easily
make pretty baskets in their own
homes.
There will be a contest between the
members representing the various
clubs, who will demonstrate some of
the things they have learned in bread
making, this part of the program be
ing held Thursday afternoon.
Social Activities
In addition to the serious and inten
sive program being carried out, Mrs.
Vaughan has arranged for some inter
esting social features during the stay
of the young ladles in Cartersville.
After they had finished with their
program Wednesday afternoon, the
entire party visited The Tribune-News
office, and had the pleasure of observ
ing the printing of sections of this edi
tion of the paper. They were carried
through the mechanical department
and given some idea of the many chan
nels through which a news story goes,
befoje it is ready for the reader. The
large Miehle printing press was kept
in operation during their stay in the
ana they saw sections of the pa
per being printed at the rate of 2,000
copies per hour.
Leaving the newspaper office, the
young ladies were divided into several
parties, and were guests of the ice
cream parlors, enjoying ice cream
cones. Wednesday evening they were
guests at the Opera House, where pic
tures of special interest to the club
girls were shown on the screen.
Thursday afternoon, from four to five
the young ladies were to be guests of
members of the Chamber of Commerce
to furnish cars for an auto ride to va
rious points of interest in and around
Cartersville.
From five to six o’clock Thursday af
ternoon the Cherokee Club entertained
ia honor of the young visitors, this af
fair being one of the most delightful
of the many social attentions shown
the club girls.
Homes were provided by Cartersville
people for all the visitors and more
than came would easily have been ac
commodated, so anxious were citizens
to show the club girls how happy they
were to have them even for a short
time’.

TWO NEGROES
DROWN IN RIVER
Tuesday afternoon a negro girl about
12 years old fell into the Etowah river
while fishing on the place of Mr. Mil
ton Dysart, near Cartersville.
Immediately after the accident an
alarm was sounded and rescue parties
formed, the river being dragged all
night and into Wednesday morning.
At this time a member of the party
of searchers, Andrew Powell, fell from
one of the boats, and before help could
reach him he drowned. His body was

efforts at artificial resuscitation proved
unavailing.

A beautiful picture was presented by
the young ladies and young gentlemen,

by Leslie, was rendered by the orches

For Visitors, the Local

His Twisters at Oppor
tune Moments.
A large crowd was in attendance, and
Cope’s boys tried hard enough to win
several ball games, at the open contest
of the season, last Tuesday afternoon,
but Mr. Goat Cochran was invincible,
and this tells the story.
The score ended four to nothing in
favor of the visitors, who garnered one
run in the first inning, which would
have won the j?ame, but in the seventh
they pushed three more of their men
across the home plate.
At more than one stage of the game
he local boys had a chance to score, but
failure to hit in the pinches proved
their undoing.
The local team showed up well, how
ever, and with sufficient practice to
gether, will prove a winner, local fans
believe.
