Organization of a county soldiers
and sailors club in Columbia was sug-
gested and preliminary discussion OF
it given last night at dinner at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Ashley B. Sow
ell on South Garden street, when in
the course Of the evenings converse
ton among the soldiers and other
guests the idea was sprung by Girard
BrownloW, now at home on a furlough
before returning to FIT. Mcpherson
where he will undergo an operation
that is expected to relieve his foot
of all signs of injury received in the
.Argonne drive
Mr.. and Mrs. SoWell were hosts at
a beautifully appointed dinner and
had as their guests Girard Brownlow,
Provine ,GreenlaW and Tom Sowell,
all returned soldiers, and Judge w. b.
Turner, DIR. Geo. o. Watts and r. II.
Clagett. Mrs. Fannie Page assisted
Mrs. Sowell in receiving. The din
uer was an elegant repast especial
Ply prepared to fit the appetites of
| hearty soldiers. Beautiful cards and
I bright punches of sweet peas marked
the places of the guests at the table
The after dinner conversation was
| proof that in the future whenever two
or three soldiers of the great war are
gathered together there will be some
thrilling stories related. Two of the
soldiers present had been wounded
and the other had been in the
thick Of things over seas. So they
had much to talk about, but none OF
the talk dwelt upon themselves OF
their own exploits. 1t was always
about something some other fellow
did or about the big war in general.
1t was iii this conversation that
MIR. Brownlow suggested that the sol
diers and sailors Of Maury county
| ought to-form an organization. of some
| kind that would bring the boys to-
gether and acquaint them, with each
other. He thought it would be splen-
did idea to open place of registra-
ton of returned soldiers with view
to forming a permanent organization
and establishing an assembly place
at which the Veterans could meet
and swap lies" as he expressed it.
He said he thought the. proposed me-
mortal building could be utilized for
this purpose. ,,y-.. g.a
Each Of the soldiers expressed him
self as being opposed to a monu-
ment as a memorial to his comrades
who gave their lives. Each of them
thought monument would not be suf-
ficiently expressive of the commem-
Grafton of the men who were killed or
died. The memorial building idea
was favored by these soldiers.
Since many of the soldiers and sail
ors from Maury county have not yet
reached home, it was suggested that
the first meeting for the organization
of the club be postponed until about
May /, by which time it is hoped that
majority of them will have reach
ed their homes and returned to civil
ian walks of life. Mr.. Brownlow was
requested to act as temporary chair,
man in calling the meeting and Mr.
Aeenlaw to act as temporary secre-
tary. yer Ra%@
