above, will Withstand considerable
frost and may be planted at least
a month before the average date for
the last frost.
Take a Chance on Early Planting.
Irish potatoes are easily injured by
freezing, but they require about q
month to come up and may be planted
at about the same time as lettuce and
radishes. 1t pays to take chance
on the early planting of certain of the
more hardy garden vegetables. If
they are killed or severely injured
they may be replanted. A good meth
cd is to make about three paintings
at intervals of two weeks, and If the
first planting is killed the later ones
take it's place; if not killed, early veg
etables will be produced and the Sec
ond and third paintings provide a
continuous supply.
Keeping up the gardening interest
throughout the season is just as i'm
portant as making an early start.
About the time the more hardy vege-
tables are planted in the garden the
seeds of tomato, eggplant, and pep
pers should be started in window
box indoors. BY the time the ground
and the air are warm these plants will
be of good size and ready to set in
the garden. In the meantime few
"frostproof" or hardy cabbage plants
may be set out. Next will come the
planting of snap or string beans. Then
follows the planting of Lima beans
summer squashes, melons of all kinds
and other of the more tender vege-

dinner will be a great event Men
and women are coming from all over
the county and many from outside

most OF the tickets have been taken.
1T is still possible to make reserva-

to do so.
Two speakers are on the program,
DR.. j. c. FAINT, the new president of
the Women's College, and Champe S.

will be DR.. Fant's first talk to his
new neighbors of this city and county
since he became president of the col
lsge- His subject will be "The Ed
ucational Ideals of a Community"
There is much interest in his remarks.
Mr.. Andrews is manufacturer. He
operates mills which make underwear.
hosiery and paper. His interest in
civic affairs dates from the time he
was enlisted as team worker in
reorganization campaign for his home

of it from the practical standpoint.

when the teams start out will there be
any effort to enlist memberships in
the new chamber. When the enlist
ment does start, it will be pushed with
vigor. 1t is hoped to clean up the UNI
dertaking in two or three days. The
campaign committee has set the goal
at 600 memberships. But there is a
record involved. Greenville now has a

WOMEN INTERESTED
Their Civic Activities in Other Places
Put Into Little Folder.

Representative women of Columbus,
believing that the organization of the
Chamber Of Commerce presents an
opportunity to bring together every
body interested in the welfare of the
city, have taken up the question of
obtaining women members.
A woman's committee has been or
ganized and large number of women
members of the Chamber will no doubt
result from their efforts.
A little folder outlining some of the
civic activities of women elsewhere
has been prepared. Copies may be
obtained at the campaign headqusrt-
