WOMAN'S CLUB
ANNUAL MEETING

The Annual meeting OF the
Woman's club was held Wednes-
day, April 10th, IN their rooms,
Mrs |. Gelders presiding
1t was almost entirely a bust
ness meeting and those present
proceeded at once to take up the
matters on hand.
The first business was the
adoption of the Amendment to
the Constitution Article six sec
ton 2 and 3. Strike out sections
Z and 3 and substitute the fol
lowing to read as sections 2. The
president shall appoint a nomi-
mating committee OF five prior to
the annual meeting who shall
suggest the names of the officers
to be elected for the ensuing
term. The election shall be by
acclamation unless otherwise or
dered by the club.
! he officers were then elected
for 1916-l7 as follows: President,
Mrs. S. G. Pryor, ST.; Vice Presi-
dent, Mrs. E. ]. Dorminy :; Re
cording Secretary, Mrs. c. E.
Brewer; Corresponding Secre-
tary, Miss Elizabeth Pryor );
Treasurer, Miss Maude Glover;
Reporter, Miss Helen Osborne;
Parliamentarian, Mrs. J. L. Fra
yer.
Mrs. J. T. Andrews asked that
the Woman's Club join the Par
emit Teachers Association in eX-
tending an invitation to the State
Convention of Mothers Congress
to meet in Fitzgerald next year.
The motion was made and carried
that we extend the invitation.
The Better Babies Contest was
discussed and postponed indeh-
nitely. The annual reports were
heard from the officers and COM
mittees which proved the good
work of the club.
Roll call was responded to by
suggestions for the next years
work and programs and some
very helpful and interesting 'sug-
gestions were made.
Mrs. c. f. Brewer made a mo-
ton which was carried that we
give Mrs. GelderS, the retiring
president a rising vote of thanks
for her faithful and untiring eff
forts for the good OF the club. She
has never missed a meeting and
has worked increasingly and al
ways with a view of something
higher, something better for our
CLUB.
At the close OF the meeting,
Mrs. Mrs. A. II. Thurmond, Mrs.
z. A. Russell and Misses Nellie
Frazer and Elizabeth Pryor serv-
ed refreshing tea and waters, af-
ter which they adjourned for the
coming year.

Mr.. A. M. Kendall, of Atlanta,

in the city in the interest of his

would refer "as from the gifted

pen to be the work of our boy,

then prevailing, But the lease
met with bitter opposition.
! his, then, is how the amount
came to be fixed at $4,000 per
month. When the old lease ex-
plred and new lease made, this
amount was taken to figure on as
a basis for the new lease. 1t was
shown that the traffic of the rail
road had increased enormously
and that its capacity was taxed
to the utmost to handle the i'm
mense tonnage, but all the same
they only offered q raise of $1O,-
900 per month, and this amount
was accepted, making $35,0OO per
month that the lessees are now
paying. Whenever it comes to
making the worse appear the bet
ter cause, or getting something
Tor nothing, they are there by an
overwhelming majority. SO
when the question OF making a
new lease came before the legis-
lature, the men who represented
the people OF Georgia, in leasing
the states railroad, they could
only hide their diminished heads
and accept what was given them.
which was $4,000 a month.
Now, then, $4,000 per month
IS the only figure we have seen
mentioned any ways in reason for
the leasing of the states railroad
And this figure was named in
connection with the discussion of
a proposed sale. OF course. if
there IS sale there can be no
Iease-and hence the discussion
was only to arrive at some basis
OF valuation, in order to deter
mine the exact figures to sell at,
! II 1t IS finally decided TO sell.
For our part, we are opposed to
considering a sale of the states
road, in the absence of complete
knowledge n the value of the
! property, together with the price
that Is proposed to be paid for
/ it.
! There seems to be a well-de-
hned propaganda formed for the
purpose of creating public senti-
ment in favor of selling the
states railroad. If it is sell it or
bust, we say bust. There is less
cause Tor a stampede in this mat
ter than ever before. And no
sense Ill the talk of retiring the
small bonded Indebtedness that
ithe state owes, because the bonds
are not due, and therefore not
payable. Bondholders are not 90
ing to allow their bonds to be re-
tired before they are due, without
the proper consideration, and the
better the security the more CON
Sideration they will exact.
But for exigencies of the war
situation and its aftermath, which
have been related above, it is pro-
bable that the states railroad
would now extend from the At
lantic ocean to the Tennessee
river, and this may yet have to be
done, i'll order to save it from the
rapacity of those who are medi-
tating and designing its forced
sale and sacrihEe.

THE STATES ROAD, THE
HERITAGE OF GEORGIA


States railroad, as it appears in
the editorial of the Brunswick
News, contains valuable inform
alton for the public, which is fed
on arguments favorable to the
sale OF the property by leading
State papers. The people have it
in their power to protect this as
set of the State and when they
fully recognize its value now and
for the future, they will exert
their influence on the coming
legislature to retain what they
have and to make the neCcssa, y
extensions to make it the revenue
earning property that it is des-
tined to be.
The Brunswick News says:

Baking Soda Uses.

There are numerous uses to which bak-
ing soda can he put, apart from the ac-
customed and legitimate ones OF cake
and bread making. First of all. II is an
excellent family remedy for scalds.
When milk Is on the point OF turning
sour a pinch OF baking soda dropped In
It will restore II to It's natural sweetness.
A thick paste made of soda and water
is excellent for cleaning glasses In which
milk. ice cream. or other greasy sub
stance has been standing or even when
there is no time to make a paste. II the
fingers are dipped in water. then In dry
soda and the greasy part Of the glass IL
rubbed around with them. the marks
will quickly disappear and the glass be-
come bright.
Lamp chimneys treated in the same
way will shine like crystal. while II q
lamp burner is boiled for half an hour
in soda and water II will cause the lamp
TO burn with renewed brilliancy. Soda
II also excellent to clean silverware.
Make II into thin paste and rub briskiy,
