HOME _ • —EDITION VOLUME XX, No. 17. Society FIRST PRESBYTERIAN PHILATHEA CLASS. The Philathea Class recently or ganized in the First Presbyterian Sun day School with Miss Annie G, Wright as president, and Dr. Sevier as teacher is growing in interest and in num bers. The class meets in the ladies' parlors of the Telfair Building at the Sunday school hour, 3:30 in the after noon, an hour convenient to many. A setierai invitation is extended to all young women over 16 to join this class. DR SEVIER TO PREACH ILLUSTRATED SERMON. Sunday evening Dr. Sevier will preach the first of a series of three sermons with his illustrations taken from the work of the railroad. In choosing his illustrations he is copy ing the Master who made the Gospel' story glow with illuminating thoughts from the work men were doing all around him. With the special music and popular themes these evening services are most popular. The con gregations almost tax the capacity of the large church building. All are invited to hear these sermons, but especially railroad men and their fam ilies. TEACHERS’ CLUB TO MEET. The Teachers' Club of Richmond County will hold its regular monthly meeting Thursday. January 2eth at 4:15 p. m. at the Tubman High School. CARDS OF THANKS FROM THE CHILDREN’S HOME. We appreciate very much the help given the home in the Purple Stamp Contest and wish to thank every one who cast a vote for the home and especially those who were kind enough to work with us. The five hundred dollar prize won will be used to reduce the twenty five hundred dollar mortgage, which will expire on May 10th of this year, at which time we will have one hun dred dollars interest to pay, in addi tion to the mortgage. Besides this $2,000 we are carrying two notes amounting to $558.83 and paying eight pet cent interest on the entire $3,000, and would be very grateful to anyone who would lend us this amount at a lower rate of interest. We also thank all those who are helping u.s pay our grocery bill, through the auxiliary and hope each one will try to meet this pledge promptly. Again thanking each and everyone who is or has been helping us, we remain, cordially, THE CHILDREN’S HOME, Mrs, E. S. Hollingsworth, General Manager. ASSOCIATED CHARITIES WANT SOME BOOKS. The Associated Charities are in urgent need of some Fourth Grade school books, to be used by children who if they do not receive them from this source, will be unable to attend school this term. Phone 786-J. A VISIT TO THEIR PARENTS. Mr. and Mrs. Clifford R. Hughes, of Clarkesburg, West Va., after spending the holidays with Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Hughes have returned to their home. Mr. Hughes was visiting his father and mother in Greenville, P. C., and as his business called him back so soon he did not get to Augusta, his old home. He holds the position of foreman of the B. & O. freight deport and the sixty men who are working under him think very much of him. He says his next trip will be to dear old Augusta. Mrs. G no Stratton Porter, author of "Laddie,” "Freckles,” “The Har vester," and other popular stores, has built a cabin for herself in conformity with the life which she has always lived and written. A recent inter view with her describes her new home in the woods. “All her life this ‘Bird Woman’ has believed that she would be more at home in the woods than elsewhere, and now she is trying it. On her little estate of 15 acres of wild wood, with primeval trees upon it, near Rome City, Ind., she has reared a bungalow house, called Llmberlost Cabin. The land runs down to a lake shore; there is a spring and a clear ed hill for garden, orchard and pas ture. Here have been laid off red, white, pink, blue, lavender and yellow flower beds of an acre each, in the deep woods running down to the lake shore, where wild flowers of each color named have been planted, be ginning at water-growth at the lake and running back so that each plant has its proper location; vines and wooden fences stand between the beds of flowera Llmberlost Cabin Is situated In the middle of the yellow bed; it has 18 big rooms and four fireplaces, two of which Mrs. Stratton-Porter practi cally built herseif. One Is of white glacier formation known as *pudden stone,' the pebbles being red and blue; and In a big living room there Is one of field borulders spilt to Show many colors and flecked with quartz crys tals that spaTkle like diamonds In the light. Llmberlost Cabin Is provided wtth private gas and electric light plant, waterworks and telephone and a good road. The windows In this house are built with broad, deep casements es pecially to furnish feeding tables for the birds. Outside the open porch has a cement, floor on which In winter stand sheaves of wheat, apples and cabbage and celery leaves: and on the broad sills are scattered chopped wheat, ground com and baked pota ,*oes and depending from a rope are f raw meat bones and pieces of suet There £;«1 the chickadees, titmice, nut hatches, sap-suckers, flickers, song-sparrows, Jays, cardinals and squirrels. A pair of coons Inhabit one of the hollow trees, also a pair of big owls. All of this seems a suitable en vironment of the author of "The Har vester, and ‘The Song of the Cardi nal.' ” THE AUGUSTA HERALD 870 BROAD ST.
