At q largely attended meeting Of
of the Women's Progressive Union.
held Monday evening, January 35th.
Mrs. BOdebender presided In her usu-
al gracious manner and disposed Of
all the business for the past year.
As president Of the Union two
years Mrs. Bodebender has been In
defatigible In her work. Endowed
with great executive ability, re
sourceful mind. and winning manners,
It il no wonder that the Union has in
creased in number and strength.
Many improvements have been
brought about, and others supported
and encouraged and "civic pride and
interest in all things" has become q
motto for this splendid organization
composed of about one hundred Of
the best women of Covington.
As January is the usual time for
the election Of officers and - no of
ficer can succeed herself longer than
two years, Mrs. Bodebender gracefully
turned over the gavel to her success
sor, Miss Kate Eastman, who was
unanimously elected to the presiden-
cy. In this selection there can be no
doubt Of the continued growth Of our
Union.

building; the assistance given in
equipping the reorganized Fire De
partment: the large sale Of Red
Cross stamps; the securing Of arc
light at depot; securing permission
from council to beautify triangle op-
posite Bourgeois furniture house:
these are some of the things accom-
plished during the presidency Of Mrs.
Bodebender.
But one Of the greatest accom-
plishments of the Union during the
presidency Of Mrs. Bodebender was
the renovation and putting in order
of the Covington Cemetery. The
Union donated $50 in cash for this
work and by appeal to the town
council received $50 more and q
monthly contribution of SIS. This
fund was replenished and increased
to $500 by entertainments and other
donations. This cemetery committee
was headed by Mrs. Preston Burns,
chairman. She and Mrs. J. c.
Burns and Mrs. D. l. Addison, also
members of the committee worked.
not only as supervisors but as actual
laborers, doing much Of the tedious
work with their own hands, re-es-
tablishing old graves, clearing vines
and shrubbery from tombs, replant-
ing flowers, and turning the wilder
ness OF overgrowth into the beauti-
full green of = well kept lawn. This
was . much needed work and great
