annual tour of homes and gardens. (PRN)

ATLANTA (PRN) e
Georgia in the early spring is
at her most promising. Her
legendary dogwoods are eager
to burst forth, her equally
famed azaleas hint of a rich
range of color yet to come,
her flowerbeds - are at the
ready.
In towns and cities
throughout the state, the
resulting explosion of color is
the cue for the first of
Georgia’s tours of homes and
gardens, sponsored by the
Garden Club of Georgia, Inc.
This is the time when
homeowners open their doors
and garden gates to hundreds
of visitors, making the lure of
spring travel all but irresistible.
Twelve cities will offer
tours this year, beginning
March 19 with Thomasville in
the southern portion of the
state. Eight stops will be
highlighted here, including the
home of Dr. Ben Grace, built
in 1890 by early settlers of
Thomas County. Inside are
14-foot ceilings and antique
brass chandeliers; in the
garden are seven fountains, a
small pool and rock walls
started generations ago.
Savannah follows on March
22, 23 and 24, with 24
offerings divided into two
candlelight tours and one
country tour. A newcomer to
Savannah’s schedule this year
{8 a seminar program dealing
with the history and
architecture of Georgia’s
colonial city and the
decorative arts of the 19th
century.
Included in the country
tour is the beautiful Beaulieu,
home of Robert Groves.
Beaulieu Point, once a favorite
camping ground of coastal
Indians, was granted to
Hospital in Dublin,
Mrs, Edgar Burch and Miss
Mary Della Burch of Jackson
ville, were overnight guests
on Wednesday, at the home of
Mrs. W, J, Ryals.
Mr. and Mrs. Mack Morri
son and family of Millen, were
visitors over the week end
with their parents, Mr. and
Mrs. D, M. Morrison.
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Rowland,
Sandra Montford, Torita
Bishop and Mr. and Mrs. J,
B. Thomas of Scott, were in
Fernandina Beach, Fla., for
the week end. They attended
the H, C. Rowland family re
union.
Mrs, T, E. Rushing of
Statesboro, spent Friday here
with her mother, Mrs, J. F.
Bishop.
Mrs., P, A, Crawford of
Augusta, was a guest of her
sister, Mrs. Kent W, Currie
for a few days. Mrs. Currie
accompanied her home.
Harper Ennis made a busi
ness trip on Wednesday to
Savannah,
Mrs. Martin Pope and her
daughter, Mrs. Howard Sharpe
of Lyons, were in Savannah
on Thursday.
Mrs. W, H, Sightler attended
William Stephens in 1739,
served as the landing place of
Count D’Estaing’s forces in
1779, and was visited by
Robert E. Lee when he
established a fort in 1861.
Amidst all this turbulence rose
the serene white-columned
plantation = whose curving
staircase and clegant
furnishings are outstanding.
The March 25 tour of
romantic, moss-festooned St.
Simons Island and Sea Island
features a host of homes with
breathtaking ocean views.
Historic Christ Church, where
John and Charles Wesley
preached in 1736, will also
welcome visitors. The present
structure, built in 1884,
inspired Eugenia Price’s
best-selling novel, BELOVED
INVADER.
Next comes Jesup, March
26 on the schedule. Seven
stops are featured here along
with a special arts and crafts
show.
Columbus offers two day
tours and a night tour, which
includes lighted gardens,
March 25 and 26. Featured is
the restored and furnished
Walker-Peters-Langdon House,
built in 1828 and believed to
be the oldest house in
Columbus. Another highlight
is the Pemberton House built
in 1855, home of the
ingenious Dr. Pemberton who
invented the formula for
Coca-Cola.
And there’s more to come
throughout April and early
May.

What Nursing
Means To Me
Nursing to me is one of the
most rewarding fields youcan
enter. I just feel like there is
a purpose in life and that I
am here for a reason,
1 feel like I am really doing
something and helping some
body. 1 don’t care if just talk
ing to patients is a help some~
times. You may have a prob
lem besides your health and
talking to someone about it
always helps to bring it out
and you feel bhetter with a
little friendly advice from
your friends.
There are millions of peo=~
ple who are sick and need
help. 1 feel as long as I have
good health, this is what I
will do the rest of my life,
