■ UNION RECORDER, MILUOCEVILLE, CA-, OCTOBER 24, 1MR NELLE WOMACK HINES Oar Old Horn* Town Well, well, and a few other deep subjects might be considered column this week—for I am going to talk about our Own Old Home Town for a change. What’s coming it anyhow? Maybe it is at last ing into its own—and getting a of the things it has deserved these many years. All of us will be having the swell head if we don’t mind—for we have had bouquets handed us right and left during the past month. You remember just a couple of weeks ago—the D. A. R. State Board met here. They had the official ses sion in the auditorium at G. M. C.— the old capitol building; they had luncheon in the Marfsion—the old governor's home; and they were “tea-ed” at the home of Mrs. David Ferguson—that wonderfully To*ely place where you expect to meet somebody’s grandmother coming down the stone steps in lavender and i old lace; “The Nash and I” had a I very important part in the program I of the day—we took two of the j MOST DISTINGUISHED guests to I ride and then to the tea. and we were 1 all dressed up for the occasion. I wore a new hat and Lady Nash had a big bow ''f red, white and blue on either side her head—her curls all tied bark you see. I later learned that the D. A. R. colors were ju-t blue and white—but it didn’t matter a bit for there is nothing that will set off blue and white as well as a touch of red. Of course, all the sixty guests were “carried away” with the beauty of our Old Home Town—to say nothing of thinking they had walked “on hallowed grou*nd” 'all day—that is what one of the visitor* said to me—so I did not make it up. Then we had the Fair—and it was a wonderful Fair. I know, because I went myself- -and saw. And whe.. I think of the time—away back yonder—when a few of “the pio-j neers” in a county fair movement for Baldwin—(your humble Servant being one) just “fit, bled, and a!- j most died’’ for the caux—1 “kind- j er” felt like shaking hands with my-' self and everybody else that so many good worker’s had landed behind the J undertaking and make a great *uc- j cess of it. How many of you re-! member one of the “fairs” we had—, it was in Mr. E. E. Bass’s potato house—and we had so many wonder ful exhibits—Mrs. Beeson was chair- 1 man and she rode all over Baldwin to I interest the women—and she surely! did do that thing. And we had? “aide shows”—(we hadn’t gotten as j far as a carnival) for I was one my self. We got a quartette together! and had a tent—a*id dear me—I j don’t know what we didn’t do. But . uccess of the entire program. Just to get our own Bishop Candler to come down to talk to us is an event —and to double it up with such an unusua’ occasion! Our Home Town should give the U. D. C’s a rising vote of thanks—beta goes—everybody stand up! And speaking of bouquets for our Home Town—the Bishop handed us one himself—altho he said he didn’t do it for publication—but this is just between us—tie says he is sorry they ever moved the capitol away from here. And now—we are going to have a “Talkie.” Yes sir-ree—Mr. Curry is havirg it put in at fast as it can be | done and I surely thiik it is up to the | Old Home Town to celebrate when ie does announce hi* opening night. There are mighty few folks anywhere anout that have a good “boosting spirit for the Home Town” in any better form thafri Marion Curry— and he has always tried to give us (and has succeeded) the best that was going. Whenever you take n notion to “run over to Macon” to a •how—just go doom to the Colonial to a “talkie” and put the extra mon ey in the bank “for the children ’. I However—there is ONE thing I am going to ask Mr. Curry to do—with “tears in my eyes.” It may be ME —or my eyes rather—but every time I go in—I am so scared that I am going to sit down on some good friend and have them rise suddenly j and dump me on the floor—that I am ! about to decide to take my flash j light with me. It would be awful to 1 wake up some morning and find my self on the front page of the state | papers as “Woman sits in lap of 1 strange man at the picture show mis taking him for a vacant seat—and i, violently thrown against a chair back—knocking out all her front teeth. The man escaped." So I guess you must know what it is I am go ing to ask Mr. Curry to do. If he ( doesn’t think it best—then don’t be ' alirmed if you aee me walk in with j ny flash light. I am a grandmother j —and can’t afford to get on front page.

They can’t stea H—that’s a cinch—and as for com plaining—we ju>t like to keep th< record straight. Anyhow -it’s oui Now—here this week—I unden stand that <*ur own Mrs. Beeson went down to Moultrie to the State Con vention of the U. D. C’s—and—I’ll l»e jim-swiggered if they didn’t pre sent her with a silver loving cup al most a* big as she was. Because why? I’m sure you remei.her how Mrs. Beeson worked to get ull the children «f our county (and the state) to write essays on Bentramin Haney Hill and when the time came for all the states to send in their best easays—why Ga., won! Then, hecau-e Mrs. Beeson had done the work for Georgia>—and Georgia won—they presented this cup to her. Talking to her about it—she said—“I jurt wasn’t that fine? Of course, not neraly fell off that stage”—now her nearly falling off the stage—but her having a cup presented to her. Hurrah for Mrs. Beeson! Then—the U. D. C’s.—they pulled • great stunt—if you will excuse the word used in connection with unveil- i»g a marker for our first Methodist church. It was a splendid idea—and Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Ferguson are to ho greatly congratulated upon the FOR SALE—One , 1927 Chevrolet toariog car in eacolloat cowdiltoa, farm implements, mnl Priced for qeick sale.
