Jaycettes Vote $60 To Helping Hand Members of the Dade County Jaycettes voted Monday night to donate $60 a year, payable monthly at a raite of $5, to the Helping Hand organization which was recently started in an effort to give emergency aid to the needy. The Jaycettes, who are sponsoring this project on a county-wide level through the co-operation o f church and community leaders, are believed to be the first group in the county to officially vote a dona¬ tion to this fund. Since the beginning of the Helping Hand project, some clothing has been coming to the Jaycettes for distribution. R. L. Hadden offered the use of off ice space in his pharmacy which the club decided to use as a de¬ pository for used clothing, furn¬ iture, and canned goods which would be dispensed by the Help¬ ing Hand officers. A vote was taken to ask the assistance of the Jaycees in building cloth¬ ing racks and display tables, and also to clean and press clothing left from the fair rummage sale to be given to the needy along with the recently-donated art¬ icles. It was announced that Mrs. N. H. Hutchison was the first contributor outside of the club •of outgrown clothing for this project. It was also decided to sponsor a semi-formal Christmas dance at the American Legion Hall in Trenton on Dec. 20 and to hire a small orchestra for the occas¬ ion. Tickets will be sold to the public sub $1.50 each. Mesdames Bob Chitwood and Robert Had¬ den volunteered to head a de¬ corating committee which will be composed of most of the Jaycette members. Mesdames E. G. Wright and T. J. Bell were appointed to be in charge of refreshments. The group also decided to ask the Jaycees to prepare part of the entertainment for the even¬ ing and to assist with decora- NOV. MEETING OF WILDWOOD CLUB HELD The Home Demonstration Club met at the home of Mrs, Ruth Neely for the November meeting and enjoyed a very full program. the It was difficult to get all things that were clamoring to be discussed and cussed out of the way, our many plans laid for (the coming year, our new officers duly elected, and still have suf - ■ficient time to enjoy and bene- jfit by Miss Hubble’s Christmas decoration demonstration, which was very good. We do appreciate Miss Hubble’s untiring efforts to help us when sometimes it looks as though maybe we didn’t want to be helped. We received some splendid ideas on decorat¬ ing and lighting our doorways for the holiday season from the slides she showed us and we are planning to really do something about it. The following officers were elected for the edming year: Mrs. Mae Carroll, president; Mrs. Gertilee Wallen, vice-presi¬ dent; Mrs. Janie Mae Hancock, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Minnie Lea, scrapbook chairman; Mrs. Ruth Neely, program chairman and reporter. 1956 goals We will set up our at a later date as we ran out of time. We appreciate the faith¬ fulness of our outgoing officers. The next meeting will be a Christmas party and we hope each member will be there and also as many others of our neighbors as can. Bring a Chris¬ tmas gift to exchange. —Mrs. Ruth Neely, reporter.

MEMORIES OF DADE COUNTY, GEORGIA (Ed Note:—When Mrs. Thomas T. Cowan, the former Miss Sana Gross, now of Oklahoma City, Okla, sent in her renewal to the paper she sent us the following:) Of the towns and cities of Dade County, Trenton is the one that surely holds m y fondest memories. Each time I visit there again, I dream back through the years. I live again the HOPES of YOUTH and all It’s smiles and tears. I wander down the highways and touch remembered places, tas wistfully, I look around for some familiar faces. The laughter and heartaches are faded far away but I still like to make believe, TODAY IS YESTERDAY. I know it can never come to life, the wiay it used to be, but. . . Oh. . . I love the FAIRY LAND of timeless memory. To The VOTERS of the 7 th Congressional District of Georgia! Judge Erwin Mitchell Stands For ERWIN MITCHELL 1. Opposition to the trend toward centralization of all power and authority in Washington, which will ultimately re¬ sult in our States’ being reduced to mere political puppets.

SEGREGATION: in public schools, places of public amusement, restaurants, theatres, and elsewnere, the most vital issue in the campaign is the stand that each candidate sincerely takes, and he earnestly implores each of you to in¬ vestigate thoroughly the past record of each candidate on this issue. 3.
