Mrs. L. M. Jones.
Another important piece of business
was the appointing of the woman's
committee for the ensuing year:
Director of woman's work—Mrs. G.’
C. McKinley.
Supervisor of Surgical Dressings—
Mrs. J. H. Ennis.
Supervisor of Hospital Garments—
Mrs. D. 8. Sanford.
Supervisor of General Supplies—
Mrs. J. H. Hutchinson.
The Work Room has done splendid
work since Us opening last September,
25 boxes of supplies having been sent
from the city work room, and of these
the contents of 3 were filled with work
done by the following rural schools
and community clubs;
McIntyre, Linton, Pleasant Grove,
Humphries. Watson, Meriwether, Sa
lem, Union Point, Camp Creek, Har4
meny, Coopervllle, Midway, Hopewell,
also the second grade at Georgia Mil
itary College. These boxes contained
the following articles:
Sixty-one hospital bed shirts, 20 un
dershirts, 150 comfort hags, 400 shot
bags, 143 comfort pillows. 120 hand
towels, 40 wash cloths, t pair of knit
ted socks, for the soldier, 2 quilts, 91
miscellaneous articles for Belgium re
lief, 2 baby layettes, consisting of slip,
napkins, sacks, bands, caps, jackets,
bootees, shirts, blankets, coats, sun
dry bags, socks, all beautifully made.
This splendid work is due in a great
measure to the rural teachers under
the inspiration of Dr. E. A. Tignei*.
hairman of the Junior Red Cross, Miss
Lora B. Able and Mrs. G. C. McKinley.
(We wish we had space to give
credit to each teacher and community
olub for this splendid work and we
wish it had been possible to put the
work on display, so that the public
might see what different kinds of work
Ip Leing put out by the women and
chilren—The Army Behind.)
MISS ELLISON,
Secretary of Red Cross.
Let us make It the blggeBt day of the
Summer School.
All are invited to hear Dr. Jackson
without any charge whatever. This
will be a wonderful opportunity for
aBldwtn county people to see what la
being taught in the way of food con
servation. It will help us to cope
with the htgh cost of living next year.
It will be an opportunity to see the
work done In the classes - for Red
Cross work and the work of classes
in all departments of the Summer
School.
The people from the county will be
served dinner at Atkinson hall at 25
cents per plate. Each community
club president is asked to send an ap
proximate list of names from her clm-
munity to Mrs. J. L. Beeson.
On this day It Is hoped that time
can be found for the initial meeting
of the Baldwin County Federation of
Clubs.
It is a real pleasure to read what
the community clubs did in the recent
Red CrcBS drive. Union Point raised
$178.05; Meriwether, $191.25; Cooper
vllle, $82.60; Midway, $19.45; Pleas
ant Grove, $49; Salem, $35.25. And
now that the drive for War Saving
Stamps Is to be made on June 28, we
predict that again these clubs will be
large subscribers.
It may be of interest to some to
know that the Nancy Hart Chapter,
Daughter of the American Revolution,
changed its constitution in'order to
retain Mrs. H, D. Allen as regent. Her
time limit of two years was up, and
the constitution was changed by a
unanimous vote, so that she might
serve an additional two years.
In the Garden Contest which was
inaugurated by the Woman’s Club last
year, Mrs. E. R. Hines, the president,
won the second prize. The first prize
went to Dr. Good, of the Georgia Nor
mal and Industrial College. Prizes
were given to the colored people also.
