Yesterdays Convention Was
Well Attended

thoroughly enjoyable and delight
ful for all who attended was the ela5-
crate banquet given by the physicians
7f Sumter county to the members of
the Third District Medical Association
at the Windsor Hotel last evening,
this occasion having formed the clos
ing feature of the hospitable enter
tainment given the visiting physicians
by the members of the profession here
1t was a large and representative
attendance from among the physi-
clans of the district that gathered at
the cleverly arranged and beautifully
decorated banquet table, which was
formed in the shape of a red cross,
The menu served was carefully ar
ranged and prepared in every detail
Manager George Gardner having de-
voted great care and thought to serv-
ing the visiting physicians with de-
licious feast.
The place cards bearing the menu
were unique and tastefully arranged,
bearing on the front leaf a photo
graph of a little girl, arrayed in a
nurses costume attending to the
wants of her dolly. The picture is
an excellent likeness Of little Eliza
beth Council, daughter of Mr.. L. G.
Council, proprietor of the Windsor,
which added special interest to this
original feature. The names of the
nine courses was given in Latin, the
language familiar to the physician in
his every day practice, directions as
to the disposition of each course being
also given in the same language. This
formed an exceedingly clever feature
of the program, which was printed
in the sape of red cross. The prep
aration of the menu card and other
features of the arrangements gave
ample proof of the diligent and effec-
tive work which was done by the COM
mittee on arrangements, which con-
sisted of DR.. Louie F. Grubbs, chair
