STONE CASTLE CHAPTER
DAUGHTERS OF RENOVATION
HAVE INTERESTING MEETING.

Reports of Different Officers Were
Made for Past Year, and New
Officers Were Elected.
The last meeting of Stone Castle
chapter D. A. R. for the fiscal year
was made beautiful occasion at the
home of Mrs. G. M. Davidson Thurs
day afternoon, Mrs. J. P. Perry as
sisting her mother in charmingly en-
pertaining the large number present.
The rooms were very attractive with
Easter lilies, roses and sweet peas,
the fairest flowers that could be
found being culled for mother" the
program and the occasion being
planned especially in honor of the
elderly mothers of the city, and each
daughter felt that the presence OF
these silver-haired gentle women of
the Old South was a benedicton.
The chapter flag conspicuously dis
played carried an inspiration as we'll
as furnished bright bit of color to
the decoration scheme. After the us
ual devotional exercises the regent,
Mrs. j. G. Dean, went at once into
the business session, which was I'M
usually interesting, as the final re-
ports of the different officers were
given. 1t is especially gratifying that
nine children who otherwise could
not have been kept in school have
been supported by the chapter with
the understanding that the beneficial
ries are to be known only to the
teachers.
Once year the chapter is open to
new members, twelve applicants be-
ing added at the last meeting. The
outgoing officers by their efficiency
and fidelity have broadened the work
in every line, and have richly merited
the high praise they are receiving on
every hand. With perfect confidence
the affairs of the organization are
committed to the following newly
elected officers: Regent, Mrs. T. c..
Geise; vice-regent, Mrs R. E. Bell;
recording secretary, Mrs. j. A.
Shields corresponding secretary,
Mrs Sam Denton; registrar, Mrs. w.
A. Davidson; treasurer, Mrs. Sallie
James; historian, Mrs. E. T. Jordan;
genealogist, Mrs. w. S. Dozier; chap
lain, Mrs c. M. Davidson.
A duet by Misses Willie Chappell
and Carolyn Geise was the bright
beginning of the splendid program.
Famous Mothers of the World by
Miss Belle Cheatham was, as a mem
her expressed it, a classic. A medley
by trio of young ladies, Misses
Hatcher, Collins and buchanan, was
greatly enjoyed. A pleasant surprise
was the poem, ''To Mother" written
by Mrs. Lucy Baldwin Woods. 1t was
full of tender thought beautifully
expressed.
In addition to the regular program
the company was favored with music
al selections by Mrs. Rebecca Woo
ten and Mrs. Branch. During the
delightful social hour tea and sand
witches were served by Mesdames j.
P. Perry, ]. c. Hollingsworth, b. c.

Each honor guest was presented an
old-fashioned round bouquet. Among
the visitors present were Miss Rob

1O1 BUSHELS OF WHEAT

MIR. Geo. Commander Has Remarka-
BILE Yield. Crop Good Generally.
The farmers of Terrell county are
busily engaged in harvesting their
wheat crops. The weather has been
ideal for maturing wheat, and many
farmers report unusually large yields.
Mr.. George S. Commander informs
The News that he had five acres in
wheat this season and from this he
gathered 1O1 bushels. He did not
use a pound of commercial fertilizer
or other manure. This is indeed a
remarkable yield when it is consid-
cred that in the past the average yield
of wheat has not been more than
eight or ten bushels to the acre.
Never in the history of Terrellcoun-
ty has such a large acreage in wheat
been planted, and the yield is graft
flying to those who planted this year
