MRS. NELLIE PETERS BLACK
ISSUES CALL TO GEORGIA WOMEN

ATLANTA, Ga,- May 30.-Through
Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, president OF
the Georgia Federation of Women;
Clubs, Governor Harris has called on
the women of the state to aid in the
military registration. In obedience TO
the request of Governor Harris, Mrs.
Black now issues a call for every club
woman of any organized or non-organ-
lied body to give service in seeing that
all men of registration age shall give
IN their names at the appointed places.
This" Mrs Black says, lis abso-
lutelv essential in order that the gov
eminent may know how many men in
uodn p9uBo 90 6em sslBlS pslEul eql
for service. No census has been taken
since 1910. Therefore, this is the only
way in which definite information may
b, obtained of the men in each state.
Every woman in Georgia is asked to
give her service on June 9Th to see
that every man in her community gives
in his name. We do not want any
Sinking. We want Georgia to, do her
full duty. This was is struggle
which will end either in the triumph
or the extinction of the United States
as an independent nation.
Women of the state, here is your
opportunity for patriotic service. Make
the men see their duty. Haul them 10
the polls. See that they get there.
Your honor, your safety, and that OF
your daughters is at tsake in this con-
flict
"As your president, l have faith in
your powers. 1 know that you will do
your wull duty because you have never
failed when called upon in any emerg-
ency."
Mrs. Black asks that the press of the
state give full publicity to this appeal.

IuNE BRIDES, Wells.

Enter June, the month of the bride.
/. is right at hand and will be usher
ed in on Friday of this week, and nat
urally one of the things to be consid
cred in connection with June brid IS
is the veil the June bride wears. The
Woman's Home Companion for June
gives some of the newest views upon
this interesting and timely topic. 1t
says:
"The Russian style in bridal wells
is the latest for the bride who wants
to look taller. Wired lace above a
bandeau of pearls is topped with
plated tulle From under the bandeau
floats the veil.
For the youthful bride, the wedding
veil may hang from big, fluffy tulle
bow at the back of her head Instead
of a bandeau of pearls, she wears a
braided bandau of tulle and orange
blossoms.
THE bride who loves things artistic
will welcome the Moyen Age veil. Ii
is draped over the head, falling in
front to the knees. A place is cut fol
the face to peep out. which is outlined
with fine pearls. The bandeau is silver
ribbon or satin; the veil, tulle oil
silk Brussels net.
1.-THE lucky blue garter is now lace
frilled ornamented with heart o.
orange blossoms"
We think this has gone sufficiently
into details, even for the Woman:
Home Companion Savannah Press.
