MISS NINA HORNADY
FIGHTS FOR BIRD BILL.
1SS NINA HORNADY, prudent
1^1 of the United States Daughters
■ of 1812, has waged one of the
most active and systematic cam
paigns ever conducted in Georgia by
a woman to secure the passage of a
bird and plumage bill, which is en
gaging the attention of the entire
country and of England, with lx>rd
Curzon backing up a similar bill In
England, which he introduced in
Parliament on the fourth of this
month, and which will render for
Great Britain the same service that
the Underwood clause proposes to
render this country.
Saturday last, when the McLean
amendment went before the Senate,
an amendment designed to restore
the bird clause to the tariff bill un
changed. little opposition was mani
fested. Senator O’Gorfnan made a
strong appeal to the Senate to re
store the clause and pass it un
changed.
Senator Simmons announced that
at tho proper time the committee
would ask that section 367 be re
committed to his committee for “re-
study 4 ’ and “possible amendment.”
This statement is significant of a
more friendly feeling in the Finance
Committee.
Miss Hornady has a.^kod specially
selected individuals and all heads of
committees and woman’s clubs who
have been active participants in the
passage of the bird bill to write to
Senator Simmons, chairman of the
committee, and to the other members
of the committee, who are Senators
Hoke Smith. William Hughes and
Charles F. Johnson, urging them to
meet the wishes of their const!uents.
Miss Hornady has had the co
operation of many of the foremost
woman’s clubs in the State, and the
assistance of the leading clubwomen
throughout the South. Among the
clubs, with their presidents, who have
aided in the preservation of the wild
birds are the the Daughters of 1812,
with Miss Hornady as president; the
Atlanta Woman's Club, Mrs. A. P.
Coles, president; Colonial Dames of
Georgia, Mrs. W. L. Wilson, of Sa
vannah, president; Daughters of the
American Revolution, Mrs. Shepard
W Foster, State regent; Joseph
Habersham Chapter, D. A. R., Mrs.
John Perdue, regent; Uncle Remus
Memorial Association, Mrs. A. McD.
Wilson, president; I^adies’ Memorial
Association, Mrs. W. D. Ellis, presi

Joseph H. Morgan, president; Altar
Society of the Sacred Heart Catho
lic Church, Mrs. Joseph Moody, presi
dent; the Butterflies, the Alcyone,
Ruw&nee Fish arid Game Club and
other organizations.
Mrs. Bolling Jones, secretary of the
Georgia Federation of Woman’s Clubs,
has personally written 300 letters in
the interests of the hill, and Mrs. Z. I.
Fitzpatrh k, president of the State
Federation, and other well-known
clubwomen have taken art in kill
ing the Clapp amendment and hav
ing the bird bill pass as it was
originally presented, which make the
conservation and protection of the
wild birds of th« forest an assured
law.
Miss Hornady has been informed
by the Central Organization at New
York for the Preservation of Birds
that Georgia has been put on file
as having done the best work of all
the States.

APPLICATIONS RECEIVED
FOR SCHOLARSHIP.
\ /f RS. A. P. COLBS has received a
I I number of applications for the
scholarship given by the At
lanta Woman’s Club to the Wood-
berry School. Miss Rosa Woodberry,
prominent clubwoman and educator
has given the scholarship for a half
tuition In the high school or collegi
ate course, with literary and modern
languages, which leads up to full
diploma course, if the recipient proves
worthy of such advancement.
The Atlanta Woman’s Club has
been an active factor in educational
progress in the city and has offered a
number of scholarships, which have
been promoted with satisfaction to
the educational committee.
Through these scholarships many
bright and capable girls who have
been denied the opportunity to take n
full course in college by reason of
inadequate means, have been given a
chance and put in a position to ma.to
good in their battle with life.
The Daughters of the Confederacy
have made a specialty of their educa
tional work and have distributed
scholarships to many of the leading
institutions of the United States, be
sides the home schools.
Several girls have been sent to the
Martha Berry School at Rome, where
it costa but $50 a year for the main
tenance of a girl in that place of in
struction.
Clubw'omen al! over the country
have learned that education Is power.
That vocational and special training
is w'hat is demanded in the work
work! and that the victory Is won by
the strong'iM. Therefore, they are
opening up the way for the capable
and worthy girls In their various sec
tions of the country to be trained for
some special endeavor.
A number of Atlanta women and
women in other cities and towns have
founded industrial schools, and schools
in places where educational facilities
are limited. There are several pros
perous schools In the mountain dis
tricts of Georgia that have been
established by the clubwomen of this
city and State.
Mrs. John Cooper, who has been up
at Porter Springs for the summer,
has founded a school In that section
that is doing a splendid work. This
year the girls and boys have been en
gaged in canning and corn growing.
They have enlarged their facilities for
work and have added to their school
and library.
Mrs M. A. Lipscomb, of Athens, h.is
made the school at Tallulah Falls
known throughout the country. She
hah worked faithfully for its develop
ment. and has by her individual ef
fort lifted it to the foremost ranks
industrial and vocational training
sc hooks in the State.
The Mineral Bluff Mountain School
with Mrs. La Zarus as president of
the association that founded it, has
made a splendid record, and Mrs. A.
O. Granger has made her Cass Station
School one of the finest and most pro
gressive in the State.

CELEBRATION IS PLANNED
FOR MRS. COMPTON.
*T* UESDAY being the elghty-eev-
I enth birthday of Mrs. Martha
Lumpkin Compton, of Kirk
wood, one of the oldest and most
highly valued members of the Atlanta
Woman’s Pioneer Society, the occa
sion was observed by the members of
that organization with a postal card
shower and the presentation of a
handsome basket of fruit to Mrs.
Compton.
Mrs. Compton ls'one of the oldest
residents of Georgia and was the
daughter of Judge Wilson Lumpkin,
of Georgia, when Atlanta was in its
infancy. For this woman, then a
girl, the little town of Marthasvlllo
was named, the name being changed
later to Atlanta by Colonel J. Edgar
Thompson with the co-operation of
others in authority.
Mrs. Compton is a w’oman of Great
charm and mental brilliancy, although
she has passed many milestones of
life.
For many years Mrs. Compton lived
at her home, “Cedar Hill,” at Athens,
J
alone with her faithful old negro
mammy, Aunt Puss, as she was called.
Aunt Puss was the fifth generation
of the direct line that had belonged
to t • e Lumpkin f&ntll). < I
f’ompton was a representative. When
Puss was two years old, she was giv
en to Martha Lumpkin, afterward
Mrs. Compton, and was brought up
by that lady as her attendant, when
freedom came for the slaves, Aunt
Puss refused to leave her young mis
tress, and for 40 years she faithfully
attended her.
When this faithful old negress
died, her funeral was preached in the
colored people’s Baptist church at
Athena, and befdre the conclusion of
the services Professor DaVId C. Bar-
row, of the CJnirenrity of Georgia,
who, with a great number of the
white friends of the old negress, was
present at the funeral, made some fit
ting remarks as to the worth an 1
faithfulness of the old woman.
The ground upon which the Kimball
House now' stands was given to Mrs.
Compton by Its owner, Mr. Mitchell,
who owned half of the town In those
far-away v.ays, and In honor of the
occasion of naming the town Mar-
thasvilie. After several years, the
guardian of Mrs. Compton sold the
lots. If reports are correct, she
swapped it for a likely mule or horse,
and In this way a fortune slipped
away from the young girl.
Mrs. Compton was the honor guest
at the notable icnic given at the
suburban home of the Sissons in the
early summer at Kirkwood.

CLUBWOMEN INTERESTED
IN EUGENICS MEET.
C LUBWOMEN the world over have
been deeply interested in the
— Child Welfare Congress whicn
opened in Buffalo August 25. Over
2,500 delegates were in attendance,
these delegates representing twenty
foreign nations.
One of the most important features
of the congress was the declaration
In favor of governmental action which
will tend to compel breeding of hu
mans, made by Dr. Charles W. Eliot,
president of the congress. Ur. Eliot
urged the segregation of defectives
and Insane.
This Is a question that hns been
deeply Interesting to the women of
Atlanta, and the recent bill before the
Legislature tending to remedy such
evil as propagating children from
criminal or incurably diseased par
ents. attracted a great deal of thought
amoijg the most conservative.
Dr. Eliot said: “It is not yet clear
V7 \7
how this can be done, among free
men and women, but we know how
bad breeding of children can be rem
edied, and it should be prevented.”
Notable people from all over the
world were present and had many
advanced ideas to promote before the
congress. The care of the mouth, be
ginning with the smallest child, was
one of the most important questions
dealt with.
Mrs. J. R. Little has for .«»ome time
been at the head of the Child Welfare
work In Atlanta, and Dr. Francis
Bradley has been chairman of the
public health committee.
The work of these two women has
reached into the very heart of the
situation and has been of great value
to the school children especially.
Atlanta was not represented at the
Buffalo congress, bu' much Interest
was taken in its several sessions by
the women of Atlanta and the new
thoughts exploited by the distin
guished delegates present.
