MISS RUTHERFORD SPEAKS TONIGHT
To Lecture Under Auspices of Daugh-
tiers of COnfederacy On South's
Place as Leader of Nation.

A large audience will greet Miss
Mildred Rutherford of Athens to-
night, when she will lecture in the
court house at o'clock under the
auspices of the Daughters of the Con-
federacy. She will speak on The
South of Yesterday"
Miss Rutherford is a rarely gifted
woman. Richly endowed with all
those qualities of mind and charm of
manner that distinguish the best type
of the gentle Southern woman she
holds a warm place in the hearts of
those who have come under the
witching spell of her pleasing per-
sonality. She is intensely Southern,
and is giving her talent and her en-
thusiasm to prove the SOuth's place
as leader in the building of the ma
ton.
Miss Rutherford will appear in
costume as belle of the sixties, and
her array of historical facts to estab-
lish her claim for this section cannot
fail to thrill all patriotic GeOrgians.
1t is especially important that the
young people get this view of the old
South so truthfully and interestingly
presented. In an account of her ad-
dress in Athens the Herald says:
Miss Mildred Rutherford, that
we'll known and gifted writer and
speaker, was heard Thursday night
by an attentive and enthusiastic au-
dience of men and women. She wore
a gown of scarlet silk fashioned after
the style of the COS and having the
skirt and basque trimmed with cream
lace She wore short mittens which
covered only the hands, and her hair
was arranged like old miss with
two curls bobbing on either side of
her face. She impressed upon her
hearers that this was not the cos
tune worn during the WARRIOR all
wore homespun at that time, not silk.
When she came out on the stage she
carried an old-fashioned paper
trimmed boquet of pink flowers. 70
say that Miss Mile came up to the
expectations of her audience is to
put it mildly. She kept them spell
bound by her charmfngly informal
descriptions of the good old days
'befo' de war.
The price of admission will be 20
and 80 cents. There will be no re-
served seats.

MEETING WAS SUCCESS
BIG RALLY BY CHAMBER OF CON-
MERGE AT BRONWOOD.
Large Crowd Heard Talks by Several
Well Known Citizens. Brentwood
Band Rendered Music.

The meeting held by the Terrell
County Chamber of Commerce Fri
day night at Bronwood was an I'M
qualified success in every particular.
Those having the arrangements in
charge at Brentwood had done every
thing necessary for the success of the
effort. The Brentwood band furnish
ed music for the occasion starting
the musical part of the program with
concert in the street and then go
ing to the school auditorium and
playing there for half an hour before
the speaking began.
The audience was practically COM
mensurate with the seating capacity
of the auditorium, and many of the
leading women of the town were
present, thus evincing their interest
in the countrywide effort to build
along broader lines in this county.
President YeOmans of the Cham
Der of Commerce presided, and by
neat addresses put the audience in
splendid humor for the reception of
the speakers.
WI. II d w. w 1lllulllS COhilCCICd
with the state chronological depart
ment, made short address on cot
ton culture, stressing the need for di-
verisfication and growing of other
crops than cotton. Mr.. Williams
took the position that Terrell county
would not suffer from the advent of
the boil weevil, which he said was
sure to come, if the people would
grow more food stuffs and other
things to sell besides cotton.
Tom NJ. Morgan, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, made clear
the objects of the Chamber, and in
scidentally read a letter from one of
the great food packing companies of
the country saying they would be in
the market for properly brined Gu
cumbers this fall. Mr.. Morgan took
the position that anything the farm
ers will grow in sufficient quantities
could be marketed, and recited the
fact that the planting of fifty or more
acres of potatoes near Dawson would
attract potato buyers when the crop
is ready to ship.
Mr.. M. T. Rice, who recently has
made his home in Dawson made
strong plea for cooperation and that
unity of effort that is so essential to
development along commercial lines
Following Mr.. Rices talk Attorney
H. A. Wilkinson was called on by
Chairman Yeomans to make a few
remarks. Mr.. Wilkinson caught the
audience with a very witty address
of ten minutes, and incidentally in
sisted that every business man in
the county become a member OF the
Chamber of Commerce.
In addition to the large attendance
from Bronwood and vicinity fifteen
or more of the leading business men
of Dawson were at the meeting, hav-
ing driven over in cars. The meet
ing and the interest shown empha-
sized the fact that the people of the
county are awakening to the splen-
did results that will come from CO.
operative work all along the line.
Wednesday night, April 8, a sim
liar meeting will be held at Parrott,
and it is hoped that many of those
who attended the meeting at Bron-
wood will be present at this meet
ing. The intention is not to stop
until every man in the county is
thoroughly awake to the benefits
which will be derived from the work.
