Hattiesburgers in other Fields.
Mrs. R. B. Stapleton, state presi-
dent of the National Congress of
Mothers, and Miss Mabel Ward, also
of this city, but instructor of Domestic
Science at the I. I. & c., were visitors
Friday and Saturday to Poplarville.
These ladies were invited to make ad-
dresses at the opening of the public
school of that city, and while there
were delightfully."- entertained by Prof.
Kelly, principal of the Pearl River
County Agricultural College, who re-
sides with Mrs. Kelly, in the dormito-
ry. A big dinner served on the school
grounds was a feature of Saturday
noon, and in the school auditorium
the afternoon was taken up with the
addresses. Prof. Kelly spoke and
Mrs. Stapleton gave a clear, ringing
talk on Educated Parenthood"-th
need of educating parents. Her talk
made a fine impression, as did that of
Miss Ward. Miss Ward is perhaps the
best equipped Southern girl for the
work she has chosen, and showed
clearly the needs of Domestic Science
in the public schools.
