SOUTHERN METHODIST DINNER

When all the ladies OF the church
were invited to bring their dinners
and spend the day with Mrs. Fred
Casteel, there was a ripple of genuine
pleasure, but when it was announced
that the men would be allowed to
come for the noon hour there was
great rejoicing
The bright, crisp day helped to in
crease the appetites of eighty guests
and yet there was plenty and then
some.
Naturally the chicken was much in
evidence, served in every style, and if
the number Of pieces extra is a test
that was surely loyal bunck of
Methodists. Salads, pastries, cakea.
vegetables and coffee made this a
vertable feast. After dinner busy
fingers kept time with busy tongues
as all sorts of pretty things in EN-.
broidery and crochet were made for
the society basket.
Occasions like these promote the
good.fellowship of any organization
and we feel that our church is unusu-
ally fortunate in having a member
like Mrs. Casteel, whose hospitality
is beyond compare.-M. c. G..

COW GIRL MAY BE
A CONGRESSMAN"
Miss Jeanette Rankin Nominated
for Office in Montana. Chances
for Election Good.

Miss Jeanette Rankin of Mis-
soula, Mont, one of the leading suf-
frage workers in the West, has won
the nomination for congressman, or
congresswoman at large in Montana.
Suffragists have long looked forward
to the time when the speaker of the
house would have to ask: "Will the
gentleman from New York yield to
the lady from Montana" But they
always thought of the first congress
woman as an elderly person, one of
the veterans of the suffrage fight. No
body ever pictured her as dashing
young woman with mass of auburn
hair and with talent for wearing
clothes as a fine lady or doing rough
rider stunts as a cow girl.
Chance of Being Elected.
Miss Rankin, it is claimed, has an
excellent chance of being elected.
The women of her state will vote
solidlv for her. She is prohibition
list and practically every voter knows
or knows of Miss Rankin. During
the campaign for the suffrage amend
ment last year she literally danced
men into voting her way.

In regard to the visitorial board
this board should be charged with the
collection and dissemination of data
concerning the treatment and proven
ton of poverty and the adoptment of
public welfare. This feature was in
cluded because of criticism of the
state for failure to provide funds for
flood victims, it is said.
"In almost all of the other states, !"
the plank continues, "there are state
boards for the performance of such

The Convention Convenes.
The convention was called to order
promptly at 10 O'Clock by E. j. Rea-
gan. After the invocation H. H.

Hiram P. Gardner of Eatonton was
placed in nomination for temporary

A resolution by Maj Simmons pro-
viding for the releasing of delegates

mated for permanent chairman by
Green Johnson of JASPER county. Mr..

Hiram Gardner, temporary secretary,

GEORGE, LUKE and
JENKINS ARE NAMED
FOR COURT OF APPEALS. THREE
BALLOTS REQUIRED. LUKE
GETS GREAT OVATION.

MACON, Ga.-Walter F. George
of Vienna, Roscoe Luke of Thomas
vile and w. Frank Jenkins of Eaton
ton were declared the nominees for
the three newly-created seats on the
state court of appeals by the demo-
cratic state convention in session
here, the most spectacular feature of
the judgeship contest being the high
pitch of enthusiasm which the Luke
candidacy reached during the last
few minutes of the convention.
Luke's Name Cheered.
Delegates left their seats and
cheered every mention of Luke's
name, and he was speedily brought
from sixth place in the running up to
second place and nominated along
with George and Jenkins.
Three ballots were required to Sc
lect the successful candidates for the
court of appeals.
Bloodworth led on the first ballot
with 1874 votes, George came second
with ITO and Alexander Stephens ran
third with n votes.
The George tide rolled high and
when the second ballot had been tab
ulated and the result announced he
was found to be elected with con-
vention vote of 219. On this ballot
jenkins gained 81 votes and Blood
worth, the leading candidate, lost IA,
practically throwing him out of the
running. Luke on the second ballot
gained ID votes and Stephens lost 10,
also eliminating him.
jenkins Runs Strong.
Jenkins ran strong from the first
county called on the third ballot, and
when 100 counties had voted his cleo
ton was assured. Luke ended the
third ballot lacking 80 votes of hav-
ing the necessary 1911.
The voting resulted as follows:
First ballot: Bloodworth. 1874;
George, ITO; Luke, 112; Jenkins,
1852; Stephens. 166; Hutcheson, 116;
Grogan, ia; Graham, 10; Jones, %;
Kimsey, 40; Yeomans, 45; Fullbright,
80, and Cozart, SO.
Second ballot, with Grogan and
