 OPEN MEETING
ENTERTAINED MEMBERS AND FRIENDS WITH PROGRAM OUT
 OF THE ORDINARY.
The Winners in the Contest "The
 Training of Model Husband" Were J. c. Rush and A. w. Jackson

With one of the most novel and unique programs ever presented in
 this city, the local lodge Knights of Pythias, Centennial Lodge No. , last night entertained it's members and friends. About l5O were present at
 the first open meeting of this lodg in some time.
 The program committee at the out. set attempted 10 get away from tae stereotyped form Of ntartainment on such occasions. There were printed
 programs distributed and no one present, save the members of the committee, knew what was coming next
 The first thing was a contest en- titled The Training of a Model Illus

 bers of the fair sex present who doubtless imagined their husbands to be the very best. However if there were any ladies of this class, they were doomed 10 disappointment, for the way in whicn J. C. Rush and A. W. Jackson washed the dishes, swept and scrubbed the floor and put the baby to sleep certainly dispeled such notions
 The ladies present voted for some man. Messrs. Rush and Jack son drew the highest number of votes, respectively and were put to work The judges, Mesdames John Fewkcs. W A. Kirk and w. l. Boyer decided that Mir. Rush was entitled to the first prize, two baby dolls, and Mir. Jackson tne second. a lemon

Blindfoided and attended by two officers, he was made to take the terrible and binding obligation never 10 marry a woman without her con sent This piece of WorK convulsed those present as Sam was most perfect subject
 During the meeting a letter was handed in 10 the chairman addressed to Dr. Fewkes Now, the doctor can best tell any nquisitiye person who might want to know from whom this letter came, just what was in the missiye and who was the sender. Opie Box says he will never answer a phone call again.
 Jack Goodine enlivened the evel- ing with several numbers rendered in Jacks inimitable way, which were much enjoyed. A contest drill osed the entertainment Captains were named who chose the ladies and gen tlemen present After the line was formed, the grand march com menced The driii was ably eXe- cuted, after which the partners in drill were partners for supper.
 The refreshment committee cod sisting of Ed WheelOck, A. j. Gun ther and W. A. Kirk, deserve especial mention for the palatable eatables served The program committee, composed of $. C. Cassell, ]. $, Me Connell and Charles Goslee, also came in for a share of praise for the success of the evening.

unfurled in all their purity, an emblem
of the sweet spirit of her whose pure
thought and innate love of the beauti-
ful gave them, perpetual gift of love-
illness, to those that came after her.
To-day there is a flaming of crimson
lilies and amaryllis against the green
shrubbery. Nor can we who are the
inheritors of this loneliness forget that
the sweetness of one woman made it
all possible. Though she is mingled
with the dust, the work of her hands
lives on in the beauteous life of the
lilies; she Is immortalized in the bloom
ing of her flowers"
Who of us should not covet a like
Immortality, and who of us should not
now strive to make home and farm
little fairer, little more beautiful, not
only for our own families, but for those
who are to come after us?
Let's make the South the beautiful
land it ought to be!

MAKE THE SOUTH THE BEAUTi-
Full LAND IT OUGHT TO BE.
(The Progressive Farmer.)

l hS Tvs CoolNV II al lllCl.J
No people can be what they ought to
unless they live amid beautiful sur
roundings, and there is no excuse for
any farmer in the South not having a
pretty farm and home. The Almighty
will certainly make any farm beautiful
wherever the farmer does his part
wherever gullies, stumps and sprouts
are eliminated and fields kept large,
and symmetrical instead of being
ragged and spotted with neglected
Indigenous and notwithstanding patches
of turned-out land.
Nor is there any excuse, no matter
how poor the owner may be, for having
one single ugly home anywhere in all
our Sunny South. Where we can't have
paint we can have Whitewash, and
where we can't spend money on hand
some buildings, we can at least have
the glory of beautiful trees, shrubs,
vines, flowers and grassy lawns that
the Almighty puts within reach of
Everybody in our favored section. A
Southern home without flowers ought
to be disgrace to the owner. Even a
cabin whitewashed and made beautiful
with blossoming morning glories may
be greater delight to the eye than a
snowy mansion built without taste.
And just here there comes to us a
letter from one of our women readers,
Mrs. W. |. Zachry, of Bailey, Ca, so
happily expressed and so suggestive of
our opportunities for adding to the
worlds beauty, that we cannot refrain
from giving it emphasis on this page
She writes.

| tons of the same family. 1t has now
passed into the hands of strangers;
the members of the old family are
dispersed and gone far away. But this

Especially to the first lady who came
here as bride and lived here as wife
and mother through long and useful
life. Her impress is still upon every.

current blooming of her rose garden.

Grandmother quietly.
Katie came The supper was very
pleasant. When it was over, grand
mother, smiling, said:
IAN old woman wants to give a few
plain, old-fashioned 'don'ts' to two
young people who are to be very close
to each other for eight months"
She took up her knitting, and the
talk seemed more casual as she paused
now and then to count the stitches:
First, don't get into the habit of
reading your letters to each other. At
first you may want to do it, but if a day
comes when letter contains some
thing that you wish to keep to your
self, or must keep to yourself, a sud
den silence, where silence has not been
the rule, is embarrassing.
Don't always be together. Since
you must meet every night, go for
walks, sometimes, each of you with
some one else. Do it from the first.
There must come a time when your
very proximity will make you get on
each others nerves. To choose another
companion for a stroll then would be
making definite breach; have some
one else to fall back on naturally.
Don't get into the habit Of waiting
on each other, You may have heard
the old proverb, In love, one is always
saddled and bridled, the other booted
and spurred That is sometimes true
in friendship. A little help when help
is needed is one thing, but that either
of you should play maid to the other is
quite different Nothing is much more
Irritating than unwished-for services.
I Now here is do to wind up with.
It's another old proverb. Do remember
it! OF the unspoken word you are
master So, do know when not to
speak"

MANY CAKES FROM ONE RECIPE.

The following recipe will be greeted
with joy by all members of the house
hold. 1t is certainly cheap, is quickly
made and can be varied indefinitely.
Put in mixing-bowl one cupful of
-four one Cupful sugar, pinch of salt
and a teaspoonful of baking powder,
and mix well together, dry Melt in a
measuring cup piece of butter the
size of an English walnut; break into
this an egg (without beating) and fill
the cup with milk Pour into the mix
ling bowl and beat all together rapidly
for a minute. Flavor to taste, and
bake in hot oven.
1t is excellent either as a loaf or
layer cake If baked in loaf, line the
pan with buttered paper. A little
shredded cocoanut sprinkled on top Of
the loaf when it is ready for the oven
is an Improvement, and chopped nuts
are equally good.
A tablespoonful of cocoa added to
he recipe makes a Devil Cake. By
putting half of the ordinary recipe in
he pan first, adding the cocoa to the
emaining half, and then pouring on
OPP, marble cake is the result.
A teaspoonful of pastry spice may be
Iadded, and the cake baked in long
tpan-the result Spanish Bun.
t By baking in gem pans, one can
have delicious cup cakes for lunch or
tea. These can be varied by the addi-
ton of shredded cocoanut, chopped
Walnuts, spice, currants, chopped figs
or dates. The changes achieved in the
character OF the cake by the use of
different icings, favorings and combi-
nations are infinite.
These little cakes are excellent as
dessert. Those containing fruit or spice
can be steamed and served either with
a hard or fruit sauce. The cocoanut or
plain cakes may be baked and served
cold with cream custard, or scooped
out and filled with different kinds of
jam or marmalade. This cake may do
duty for steamed cup pudding with
spoonful of jam in the bottom of the
cup. Cranberry sauce is delicious used
in this way.
Another way to utilize this useful
recipe is to bake in a fiat tin, cut in
two and fill with rich custard. Fresh
berries may be substituted for the
custard if desired.

not want to go to- the kitchen and try
