Mrs. N. 1!. Harrison was hostess to
Brunswick chapter. Daughters of the
American Revolution, yesterday aft¬
ernoon at her home on London street.
Mrs. J. P. McLean, regent, presided,
and there was a good attendance.
Mis. D. W. Krauss, chairman of the
memorial committee, made her last
report of the work done by this com¬
mittee, and announced that all plans
were now complete for the erection
of the memorial to Glynn County’s
World War heroes, to be placed in tjie
new high school auditorium. The tab¬
let is to be pure write marble, 5x8
feet, with gold lettering-, and wlil be
placed at the bead of the main stair¬
way in tlie foyer Of the magnificent
new building. When completed, t'he
tablet jwill be one of the most beauti¬
ful in the state, and will be a credit
lo Brunswick chapter, and will add no
little to the already exquisite en¬
trance to this building. Henrik
Wallin, of Savannah, the architect of
the building, will have charge of the
work of placing the tablet, which in
itself, is a surety of perfect execu¬
tion. Work will be begun at once, and
the public generally wil await with
interest its completion.
Mrs. C. II. Leavy, delegate to the
recent state convention in Savannah,
gave a complete report of the gath¬
ering, which was received with
thanks by the chapter. The treas¬
urer’s report showed the chapter to
be in splendid financial condition. A
benefit bridge party will be given at
tlie Oglethorpe Hotel, on Tuesday aft¬
ernoon, May 13th, for the benefit of
the educational fund, to which the
public is invited.
The chapter voted five dollars to
the Valley Forge memorial fund, in
Addition to two large contributions
already made. Miss Olivia Russell
gave an interesting five minute talk
on current events, taking for her sub¬
ject, (he local car line situation and
Lie St. Simon’s bridge, and 'her na¬
tional theme was the presidential
Campaign, the immigration problem
and the Da|wes report. Miss Russell’s
clear and concise remarks were great
ly enjoyed by the chapter.
Four new names were accepted by
the chapter, as prospective members.
An important resolution, present¬
ed by Miss Olivia Russell, was adopt¬
ed by the chapter, calling on our rep¬
resentatives in congress to introduce
a bill for the restoration of Fort
Frederica, on St. Simon’s Island. This
is a pet project of Brunswick chap¬
ter, t’he plan being previously brought
up by Mrs. C. II. Leavy, some months
ago, a good deal of preliminary work
already having been done in the mat¬
ter. The city and state authoritise
will be asked to cooperate in putting
this work through.
Brunswick chapter voted to assist
in every way possible, in making- a
success the huge pageant to be pre¬
sented on the opening of St. Simon’s
Highway in June. The regent ap¬
pointed to serve on the “Larlder’s
’junction with other organizations,
composed of Mrs. C. II. Leavy, Miss
Betty S. Rucker, and ’ Miss Julia

Choreh. Mrs. D. W. Krauss was ap¬
pointed to serve on hte “Lanier’s
Oik” committee, to meet with the
Board of Trade, and representatives
from other organizations, to evolve
a plan for suitably marking this his¬
toric tree, in time for the opening- of
the highway.
The regent appointed a nominating
committee composed of Mrs. C. H.
Leavy, Mrs. A. M. Way, and Mrs. J.
M. Couric, to present names at the
May meeting, to be voted on as offi¬
cers for the ensuing year.

meeting, the hostess, assisted by her
daughters, Mrs. Clyde Walker, of Co¬
lumbus, and Mrs. I. M. Aiken, served
dainty refreshments.

A. L. Church.
ANNUAL CLEAN-UP
SEASON IN STATE
GETS ATTENTION
NOT ONLY IN GEORGIA BUT THIS
PERIOD IS BECOMING A
NATIONAL ONE
Prepare to clean up, paint up and ]
brush up, for the annual clean-up sea-j
son is at hand. Preparations are be¬
ing made by city, county and state
officials for a thorough campaign for
the cleaning up of premises, streets,
alleys and vacant places.
These are the clays when the home
owner and the householder gaze spec¬
ulatively at the back yard, glance
with interest at the collection of part¬
ly-filled paint cars without which no
garage, barn or basement is complete,
and calculate the mileage left in last
year’s tires.
Nature, (assisted a little by t'he
proper public departments, is begin¬
ning to clean up; the la|wn showed
green this morning; there is a green
shoot, species unknown, an inch above
the ground. Against the back porch
the dead limbs of last year’s vine
hang brown and ugly; all the winds
of the earth 'have plastered waste pa¬
per against the fences; the window
boxes have the decayed stumps of an¬
nuals no one thought it worth while
to remove; the alley is dowdy with a
dilapidated ‘ garbage cans and occa
sion al heaps Qf ru bbish which the
wind scatters a vain over nearby
yards. This is tile passing of winter.
It is good old springtime.
The. clean up and paint up cam¬
paign which lias, become a national
institution in the United States is de¬
signed to capture this reflective con¬
templation |\vi tii which man muses on
'the debris of'a vanished winter, and
harness it to an impulse.
The impulse is nothing loss than
the will tc remove the rubbish, tidy
up the lot, front and back, dress the
garden, mop up the garbage ,see the
waste litter removed, and. if neces¬
sary, have a job of painting done on
the house before the win lo-.v boxes
are filled.
The subtle slogan, with which the
campaign is armed is the challenge:
“Keep it up!” aid, in fact, nothing
less than that will keep the environs
of a home clean and pleasant.

ALL COMMITTEES
SELECTED IN GREAT
HIGHWAY OPENING
(Continued from page 1.1
Amusements—C. M. Peddicord, cliair
ynan; Edo Miller, vice chairman. Du¬
ties to grant concessions to eating
and cold drink stands, novelties, bal¬
loons, amusements, side shoivvs, ped¬
dlers, etc., and thus create some rev¬
enue for tlie finance committee.
Printing and General Publicity
Committee—Jack Glover, chairman;
Fred G. Warde, vice chairman, with
a third committeeman to be selected.
Duties to have printed programs, in¬
vitations and other printed matter,
to secure badges, signs, etc., to se¬
cure advertisements for the program,
and to mail out all invitations and lit¬
erature.
Christening Committee—M. B. Mc¬
Kinnon, chairman. Dtuies to 'have a
propert christening ceremony pulled
off in good shape.
Committee on Hotels, Seating and
Boarding Houses—Jack 'Gardner, J.
P. Harrell. Duties to secure the num-J
her of rooms in the various hotels
available, rates, how many restau¬
rants can accommodate, number of
boarding houses, and rooming houses,
so that the visitors may be properly
taken care of. '
St. Simon’s Welcoming Committee
-—Dr. Ashby Purse, chairman, witli
t'he privilege of selecting as many
committeemen as necessary.
The location for the exercises on
tlie island will be left entirely in the
hands of E. L. Stephens and M. B.
McKinnon. It is thought, however,
that the place will be in the park on
Frederica river.
It is very important that all of the
chairmen of the various committees
select their committeemen at once and
report to General Secretary Warde
not later than Friday morning of this
week.
It is a fact that Brunswick has one
of the biggest opportunities ever giv¬
en to any city, to sell itself to the
thousands of visitors who will be out
guests during the opening exercises
of the Brunswick-St. Simon’s High¬
way and without t'he complete and
earnest co-operation of every man,
woman, and child in Brunswick, we
cannot get tlie results that we would
otherwise get, and President J. W.
Simmons with his official board and
the various chairmen, are urging that
the public give liberally of their time
energy, money and moral support to
this, which unquestionably is the
greatest undertaking Brunswick was
ever called upon to perform.
Our colored citizens will be given
the opportunity of having a part in
these exercises and in the next few
days a meeting will be called com¬
posed of both white and colored citi¬
zens to find out what part in the cer¬
emonies our colored friends would
like to participate in. In other words,
this occasion is one that will require
and demand the undivided support of
both of the races and we feel assured
that Brunswick will do her duty in
every respect and make this one of
the greatest occasions in her history.
