Georgia Congress of Mothers; Mrs. A. McD. Wilson; Mrs. William H. Fel*
ton, of Cartersvllle. and Mrs. Edward H. Dorsey, of Athens.
The regular program was as follows:
Prayer—Rev. C. T. A. Pise.
Greetings—Mrs. A. McD. Wilson.
Response—Mrs. Edward H. Dorsey.
Report from Inman Park child study class, No. 1*
Appointment of committees.
"Healthy Homes”—Mrs. W. P, Pattlllo.
Informal discussion.
Address, “The Commercial Value of an Educated Child to the State"—
Mrs. W. H. Felton, Cartersvllle. /
The annual reports indicated an ever increasing'Interest In the prlncl-
pies advocated by the Congress of Mothers, and a flteady growth In the
organization. The speeches were of exceptional Interest, and evidenced a’
close and Intimate knowledge of the needs of the child in the various
phases of physical and mental development. The Interesting addresses of
Mrs. Felton and Mrs. Pattlllo were received with the most, cordial indorse
ment and keenest appreciation.* »
The greetings from the Atlanta Woman's Club, voiced by Mrs. A. McD.

Wednesday night the excellent program was as followsi #
Prayer—Rev. Dr. French.
"Religious Training in the Home"—Mrs. William King.
"Value of Muslo in Child Training" (by request)—Mrs. Victor A.
Moore:
Address, "Children In the Church”—Rev. Dr. French.
"Spiritual Life of the Child”—Mrs. Edward T. Brown.
Benediction.
These exercises occurred In the auditorium of the church, which was
filled with an audience fully alive to the child problem. Rev. .Dr. French,
Mrs. William King, Mrs. Victor A. Moore and Mrs. Edward Brown spoke
with eloquent earnestness upon the various subject assigned them, and
were accorded the most sympathetic interest by their hearers.
Dr. French’s appeal for a removal of the Sunday school from church
basements to brighter and more attractive environment met with the
thorough approval of his audience. To many persons in hearty sympathy
with Sunday schools, the memories of childhood carry them back to gray,
cheerless, unattractive basement rooms, where Sunday school exercises
were wont to bo held. One of the greatest needs of modern churches is
better, sunnier and more attractive rooms for Sunday school work.
