C LUBSISUSPEND ACTIVITIES
UNTIL FALL.
The Atlanta Woman's Chib, Unftfed
Daughters of the Confederacy, and
F'are.nt-Teacher Club* have disbanded
l for the summer. The women, for the
greater part, will go for rest and
recreation and will devote their time
to social activities and planning
projects and schemes for the next
fear’s work when the club house is
( opened and the various committees
; md organizations get together to
i mike their winter campaign.
A number of Interesting matters
j ire holding over, and many important
1 things will be in order when the clubs
ire ready to meet again.
Among the plans for the coming
fear will be the raising of money
for the building of the Joseph Haber-
pham Chapter House. The United
Daughters of the Confederacy will
1 likewise harbor strength and finances
for the purpose of starting a chapter
house of their own, and the Civic
• Hubs, the Juniors, the Literary and
Patriotic Societies are all suspend
ing, to rest and be prepared for a
larger and more sustained work than
they have ever accomplished.
The Uncle Remus Memorial Asso
ciation hopes to raise the remaining
Sfi.OUO to complete the purchase of
the little farm lying adjacent to the
Wren’s Nest, and which Joel Chand
ler Harris made famous as Snap
Bean Farm, and to make the formal
dedication of the home one of the
most memorable in the history of
Atlanta.
The Pioneer Women will probably
continue their monthly meetings, as
they seldom disband, and they will
give a series of al fresco entertain
ments during the heated term.
The Charitable societies, and the
church societies will not discontinue
' their work, and some of the social
clubs will resolve themselves inco
porch parties, and woodland parties,
as the weather grows warmer. But
most of the clubs will drop out of
view until the cool days of autumn,
and then resume their activities, with
more life and vitality.
(71RCIJ LATIN < j L IB R A RIES.
The club women of the federation
are doing a splendid work in the way
of circulating libraries. The South
ern Mountain Educational Associa
tion has a fine circulating library for
Mineral Springs school. The Council
of Jewish Women is establishing a
library in the Jewish Educational
Alliance, and the Decatur Woman’s
Club has 700 volumes in Its circu
lating library and a membership of
358.
The club women have been urged
by the library committee to send
books and literature to the rural
school®, the factories, and in oth* j r
ways to put book® and reading mat
ter of the right sort into the hands
of those striving for enlightenment.
The Woman's Club sends books to
Tallulah, and the Every Saturday
Club contributes to the Federal pris
on, the settlement and rural schools.
Recently several young girls of
Athens organized into a library club.
To-day they have so many books that
new quarters have had to be sought.
and at a penny a day charge for the
books, there is .already a neat sum
in the bank, with which to purchase
new books.
Circulating libraries were started in
Georgia by Mrs. Heard, of Elberton.
who is a woman of wide sympathies,
broad charities and is prominent in
all manner of club work.

desirous of having a modern system
of training and Instruction for their |
own children, the school has grown
to large proportions and its patrons
include well-known Atlantans of all
denominations.
From time to time, through the
school year, the students have given
“entertainments” planned and re
hearsed by themselves, the last, of
course, being the crowning event of
the series. Much credit for its suc
cess is due Miss Isabel Guinn. The
poses of historical personages repre
sented in poses were especially fine.
Among these were “Baby Stuart,” j
posed by Henry Stewart; Children of j
Charles I, by Pierpont Spiker, Fran- ;
ces Brown and Mary Virginia Wool-
ley; “Mother of the Gracci,” by Misses
Marjory Weldon, Clare Belle King,

Cities.” by Mildred Coleman and Mary
Burr Lake; “‘Joan of Arc.” by Miss
Margaret McCarty; “Madame Ro- |
land.” by Miss Helen McCarty: !
“Charlotte Corday,” by Miss Marlon
Stearns. "Queen Louise of Prussia,"
by Miss Louise Broyles. Readings
accompanied these tableaux, the read- |
ers being Misses Eloise Robinson, !
Florence Stowe, Mary Wills and |
Frances Knight.
“The Snow Witch” was a spectacu- I
lar play given by Misses Georgia Rice,
Evelyn Eagan, Alice Muse, Lillian Ja

The program opened with a drama
tized fable by Misses Emily Davis,

spection of the patrons. Tpiere were
beautiful illustrated psalms land other
