The superintendent, Mrs. E. L.
Tanner, called the meeting to
order, and the program as prepared
by the comtnittee was adhered to
with only slight changes.
The devotional service Thursday
afternoon, by Mrs. B. H. Tanner,
was inspiring and her cheering
words will ever linger in the mem
ory of her hearers and especially
this reporter. Her topic was
“Service.” This was followed by
a quartet, entitled “Must l go and
empty handed,” rendered by four
members of the Stokesville com
munity.
The welcome address was by
Mrs. Frank M. Appleby. It made
all feel quite at home as guests of
the Douglas Society. The re
sponse was by Mrs. T. S. Roberts,
of the Alma Society.
Miss Maude Powell, of Atlanta,
Corresponding Secretary and Treas

The Douglas pastor, Elder T. S.
Hubert, led the evening devotion
al. Then came the pageant, en
titled "The Way, the Truth and
Life, beautifully and impressively
rendered by the Douglas Young
Woman’s Auxiliary.
The evening program was con
cluded by an interisting descrip
(ion of “Real Life in Persia,” by
Miss Bridges, a missionary to that
far away country now in this coun

address was calculated to inspire
one with a missionary spirit if they
never had it before.

and life asa Missinary in Palestine.
It was followed by addresses by
Mesdames 10. K. Overstreet, Divi
sional Vice-President, of Swaiim
boro, J. F. Singleton, of Fitzgerald
and I>. W. Gray, of Douglas.
The cry from most every Society
in the Association is, “We lack in
formation.” Therefore, following
the addresses came a pleasing hint
let, entitled “Miss Information,”
by four young ladies. The attire
of Miss Information furnished the
lesson where to get information.
Her collar was trimmed with two
blueback magazines, foryoung peo
ple, entitled “Royal Service;” her
overskirt was made up of mission
ary magazines, entitled “Homeand
Foreign Field;” her purse was the
“W. B. M. U. Year Book;” her
parasol was made of the “Christian
Index.” A dialogue in behalf of
the White Cross Work was nicely
rendered by little Miss Vera Giliis,
of the Stokesville community.
She lias decided to prepare her
self for service in Foreign fields.
An intermission was taken for
lunch and delicious sandwiches
and ice tea wms served.
The Friday afternoon devotional
was led by Mrs. J. F. Singleton.
Then followed the reports of com
mittees, fix time and place for next

staff.
