Mrs. M. E. Stoudenmire
Called To Reward
Though not unexpected, the news of
the death of Mrs. M. E. Stoudenmire
Saturday caused a general feeling
of sadness and loss among the many
friends of the deceased and her fami¬
ly throughout the county. Mrs. Stoud¬
enmire had been lying in a critical
condition for two weeks at the home
of her daughter, Mrs. J. H. Hasty,
at Doerun, and though she seemed bet¬
ter at times, the end was expected at
any time. At twelve o’clock Satur¬
day she slipped out peacefully into
her eternal rest.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon at 2:30 O'clock at the home
of Mr, W, F. Stoudenmire on North
Scott street, where a large number of
friends and relatives were gathered
to pay their last rtibutes of love and
respect to the departed friend and
loved one.- Rev. J. G. Graham con¬
ducted the services after which the
body was laid to rest in Oakview cem¬
etery.
Death came to Mrs. Stoudenmire
just before her 76th birthday, which
would have been November 10. She
was born in Jones county of pious
parentage, her father being a promi¬
nent Baptist minister. She was Miss
Mattie White, daughter of Jonathun
and Mary White, She moved with
her parents to Alabama when she was
twelve years old, grew up there and
there met her husband, Mr. C. W.
Stoudenmire, to whom she was hap¬
pily married in 1873. Mr. Stoudep
mire preceded her to the grave a num¬
ber of years ago, his death occurring
in Alabama. Twenty' years ago Mrs.
Stoudenmire and her family moved to
Mitchell county, living at Flint until
they came to Camilla ten years ago,
The deceased was a woman of deep
and devoted Christian character, loy¬
alty to the church and to the highest
and best in life. Her conversion dat¬
ed back from her Childhood when she
united with the Baptist church at the
age of eleven or twelve years. Her
tyj)e of enduring Christianity can best
be exemplified in the large family of
children that she raised and on whom
she left the imprint of her devoted
life of service for God.” Mrs. Stoud¬
enmire was beloved by a large num¬
ber of friends in Camilla and the
county, who are grieved at her death.
Surviving Mrs. Stoudenmire are the
following children: Messrs. J. F.,
W. F., W. L., T. T. and C. W. Stoud¬
enmire, Mrs. J. H. Hasty, Mrs. J. C.
Calhoun and Misses Dosia and Josie
Stoudenmire. She leaves also an only
brother, Mr. T. B. White, of this city.
The bereaved family have the ten¬
der and sincere sympathy of their
numbers of friends in the sad loss
that has come to them.

Misses Hartley
Give ’Possum Hunt
A most enjoyable event Tuesday
evening was the possum hunt and
weinie roast given by Misses Mabel
and Ruby Hartley. Both hostesses
are past masters in the art of enter¬
taining and knew just how to plan
an evening of continued fun. The par¬
ty of possum hunters met at the home
of Miss Louise Palmer and motored
out to meet their hostesses and the
chaperones, Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Pal¬
mer and Mr. Dan Palmer. The hunt
was staged out in the Palmer woods
about Rock Lake, noted for its possum
habitation, but the h'unters were eith¬
er over-diligent in their scheming or
the possums over-wise in evading the
hunters, for they bagged only one pos¬
sum and he succeeded in getting away.
Worn with the exertion of bagging
so many animals, the hunters repaired
to the home of the hostesses, where
bofffires were already burning in the
oak grove in front of the house. Ta¬
bles and chairs were placed around
thd fires, and the young folks had a
merry time toasting weinies and
maryshmellows over the fire and later
eating assorted fruits and drinking
hot chocolate.
Those enjoying the pleasant affair
with their hostesses were Misses Eve¬
lyn Perry, Louise Palmer, Sara Hil¬
liard, Lois Bennett, Lily Lewis, Mar¬
tha Aeree, Helen Dell, Gertrude But¬
ler, Messrs. T. B. Twilty, Carroll
Spence, J. F. Reid, George Perry, T.
L. Anthony, Bill Fry, Randolph Hol¬
ton, Virgil Holton attcHBr. Taylor.

thews.

Camilla Club Has
Hallowe’en Party
The Camilla Club at State Normal
School, Athens, was entertained in
a most delightful manner by Misses
Ruth Stevens, Nettyle Hogg and Nan¬
nie Sue Kirb# on Saturday evening,
October 31, from eight until ten
o’clock.
The room of the hostesses shone
forth in much splendor and brightness.
It was beautifully decorated with
black and gold crepe papper, with
owls, witches and cats placed in dif¬
ferent parts of the room- Together
with the weird atmosphere the room
produced, was the spooky, ghostlike
feeling, which made every one aware
of Hallowe’en. When the clock struck
eight, those invited were permitted
to enter. Their first attention was
drawn to the appropriately decorated
room. Then their eyes fell upon the
table, which was also decorated with
black and gold and on which were ar¬
ranged eight plates.
After admiring the beautifully dec¬
orated room they were amused by
playing several games, after which
they were directed to the table and
were served a most delicious salad
course and punch. Then they were
told their fate by Miss Betty Michael,
and she also entertained them with
several readings and stories., When
the clock struck ten, the guests de¬
parted, thinking of the enjoyable ev¬
ening they had spent. The guests
were Misses Eima Wade, Christine
Einstein, Maggie Griner, Martha Per¬
ry and Bess Cochran.
