W.F. N. S. District Meeting.

The district meeting of tn
Woman's Foreign Missionar.
society of the Summerville dis
trict met in Lake City on Friday
May II, and lasted until Sunday
MAY 19. We were delighted tt
have with US Mrs E s Herbert o.
Newberry, who is State CORES
ponding secretary, also Mrs
Wightman of charleston. Both
of these dear old ladies gave us
interesting:and inspiring talks
on the Scarritt Training School,
at Kansas City, and those who
had neverlhad the opportunity
of attending a district meeting
before..were given a better idea
of the other missionary societies
in our own State-and the con-
! dition of our missionaries in fol-
eign fields. Many of these ex-
cellent talks were given to the
juvenile delegates.
Much to our delight and sur
prise, DR. Wolling, our returned
missionary from Brazil, was
present and told US something
of his work there, and as the
meetings we're very informal, he
also showed us some kodak
pictures showing scenes from
Brazil life.
The thriving little town OF
Lake City is certainly to be con-
graduated for her hospitable
people, who did everything in
their power to make the stay OF
the delegates more pleasant.
A delightful reception was CIV
en- in honor of the delegates at
the beautiful parsonage home OF
Rev and Mrs S ! Bethea.
The annual State meeting
will be held in Laurens this
year,
MARY SWAMI,
Delegate from Juvenile Society.
