Craft Workshop
At Wildwood
A craft workshop was held
the Wildwood Community
Monday. The class, with
Demonstration Agent Miss
omi Hubble as instructor,
on framing pictures.
Miss Hubble had cut
frame lengths and the
and she showed the class
to put them together. The
step was the proper matting of
the picture itself. Miss Hubble
had brought some pictures and
when all assembled the
was a framed picture for
home.
One of the ladies said she had
some menus from Hawaii she’d
like to frame, another had
picture on Japanese fabric. The
ideas are endless on what can
be matted and put in a frame
all done by yourself.
The workshop was an all day
affair with the ladies bringing
a covered dish for luncheon.
Slygo will hold a craft day on
June 17.

McBryar, J. M. Case and Kath-

The Trenton Club was hon¬
ored with a dinner in Chatta¬
nooga after winning the county
contest.
THE MEN DONE IT
When the men said they were
going to serve a full dinner to
t?ie ladies they weren’t just a
woofing it.
When we went into the
Church basement Saturday
night, there they were all re¬
splendent with white aprons
and tall cheff caps. The menu
consisted of shrimp cocktail,
fruit and cottage cheese salad,
roast beef, french fried pota¬
toes, green beans, rolls, coffee
and ice cream. I might add
that the service was excellent.
We would not object if they
would do it often.
The program consisted of.
two musical (?) numbers. A
quartet composed of J. E.
Dantzler, Gene Kirk, J. C. Ayers
and Douglas Brock did a couple
of numbers. There were, “Hail,
Hail, the Gang’s all Here” and
“The Old Gray Mare”. The fun¬
ny part was that they played
on those humming musical toys
that children play with. The
other number was rendered
(and I mean rendered) by a
group of women who sang a
serenade to the Wildwood men.
After the program we went
upstairs and saw the picture on
cancer which Mr. Jenkins
brought. I won’t say we exactly
enjoyed it but it sure did us all
good.
We hope all the people of
our community will come to our
dinners. They are for everyone
and it is a wonderful feeling to
get together and have fel¬
lowship with your neighbors.
All of you come out next time.
