the victors Tuesday after

Guy on Troy avenue with an elaborate
course luncheon of salads, ices, cakes

perfectly ripe berries were very delec-
table and their caps OF green most be-
The potato race proved
course Of much pleasure and great
appetizer. There was tie in this more
than difficult feat, Mrs Tom Starnes
winning out, the prize being bow-knot
pin. A list of the first saying
of each guest on entrance, taken and
read by Miss Verna Callicott, was ex-
tremely facetious. Music contributed

to exclaim If we only had kodak. "
From recent conversation with Mrs.
Allen Wade OF educational interests in
her home town, Rome, Georgia, we are
satisfied the South is throwing off its
shackles of lethargy. In this Southern
town is located school brought to its
present vastness by woman, by name
Mrs. Berry. The grounds to this des-
tined to be the Vassar College of the
South are two thousand acres and munf-
cent endowments. Mrs. Wade tells us
they also have another beautifully To-
Gated college, Shorter College, which
has FIVE or six hundred in enrolment.
If ! may come down the ladder few
rungs will state that cur little burg is
experiencing revival Of school in
terests. Now, having such an excellent
corps Of tearchers, it is hoped before the
fall school term to get the building
moved out OF the front door of the Sons
