Crown Princess Of Germany.

The crown princess of Germany
was not the most docile Of children.
and she remembers that she used to
DE far more anxious to make her
name as a writer than to occupy any
such exalted position as she does at
present. Little royal princesses have
to be kept more strictly at their
studies than less important young
sters. of whom less will ultimately be
expected in the way OF learning, and
the future crown princess proved a
decided handful to her goyernesses.
Instead of doing the tasks set her she
used TO while away her time by writ
ing fairy stories and verses in her
exercise bOOks-an amusement which
gained her many a scolding. Praises
for her literary ventures never seem
to have been given her. but in spite
Of Encouragement she frequently dis.
patched anonymous contributions to
German periodicals.. none Of which
were ever accepted.

basket. all going to the fund for pur'

Farewell Recentinn-

Mrs. Fletcher Price entertained the
Southern Literature Club on last Mon
day afternoon, complimentary to Mrs.
Anna Jones TGrner, who has gone to
Big Springs, Texas, to join her hus-
band, who is in business there. It
was a merry talking party, where
each expressed her regret at the loss
of member, but glad that distance
makes the heart more fond. Pretty
post cards were presented her with
tender thoughts expressed thereon.
Refreshments were served. Miss
Mary Smith gave an original toast TO
the honoree of the evening, she re-
spending in sweet words.
A kodak picture was taken of the
group, and each member of the club
will have one as a souvenir of the
pleasant evening spent together.
