MRS SIMMONS TELLS
of n A r NETTING


Mrs. Howell Simmons has just re
turned from the convention of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
ton at Moultrie, and talks very in
terestngly of the programs given at
the gathering. She spoke in partlcu-
lar of the peculiar honor which the
Third congressional district has re
ceived in that three of the presidents
of the prominent clubs are residents
of this district. Mrs. j. E. Hayes, of
MonteZuma. is state president of the
Georgia Federation of Clubs; Mrs.
Frank Harold, of Americas, heads
the state as president of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy, and
Mrs. Max Land, of Cordele, has just
received the distinction of being elect
ed state regent of the Daughters Of
the American Revolution. Mrs. Sim
mons stated that the club women be
sieged her with interrogations con-
cerning the recently purchased play
ground in Americus, and she explain
ed the purpose for which this lovely
property had been bought. She gave
a concise description of the plans in
hand by the club women of Ameri-
Gus in connection with the playground
movement, and felt complimented
that so many of the club women pres
ent resolved to organize playground
in their home towns, patterned after
the one in Americus.
The cordial reception of the D. A.
r. officers and delegates accorded by
the people of Moultrie was most re-
freshing, Mrs Simmons said, and the
number of Lowell social affairs given
for the visitors was noteworthy. She
returned with a full report of the
convention, and this will be read at
the next meeting of the Council of
Safety Chapter in May.

Y M. c. A. Notes

The much anticipated pleas
ure of greeting the ex-service
men with a social evening is of
the past but not forgotten and
the honor that was ours to en-
joy will alwasys remain a pleas
ant memory. The directors
and members of the Y M C A
considered it a privilege as we'll
as an honor to participate in the
memorial event. The boys Of
fered themselves as sacrifice
and service to their country and
we unite with the Red Cross and
Business Mems Association of
Island Pond in the oft repeated
statement that nothing is to
good for them" The doors of
the Y M G A, as during the war
are always open and a cordial
welcome to every ex-service
man whether member or not.
Forty people were present at
the opening session of the COM
munity chorus, Monday evening
Prof. F L Stone of Sherbrooke,
was present and formed an or
ganization. DR. A E Parlin
was elected president, A E Mer-
rit, Sec'y.- Treas. An executive
committee is to be Immediately
appointed. In order to meet
the necessary expenses, it was
voted to make a charge for the
season of fifteen evenings, a.
dults, $3.50 and so for children
of high school age. This does
not mean theat anyone will be
barred from the organization,
if they cannot afford to pay the
price, only to give everyone an
opportunity to help and if there
is anyone that feels the price is
above their means they will be
provided for.
The chorus will meet every
Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock,
commencing Jan. IS. 1t is a
community interest, and by a
hearty cooperation of all, much
good can be accomplished. The
Y M G A will be pleased to fur
nish room, >eat and light with
no cost to the chorus and will
cooperate in any way possible
to make it a success.
