Winthrop Daughters Meeting.

The Winthrop Daughters gathered
at the home of Mrs. M. E. Aver on
Tuesday afternoon for the chapter 8
regular monthly meeting. Because OF
sickness in several homes, our at
tendance was not up to the standard,
however the loss of the absentees was
certainly the gain of those who were
so fortunate as to be able to attend.
One person, who has recently Joined
us. but who is a member of otner
clubs. voiced her delight by saying
that she did not know when she had
enioyed a meeting so much. Still an
other member styles the literary pro-
gramme as being one Of the very best,
from every point of view, that has
been carried out since our organ1za-
tion.
The guests were met by our hostess
and Mrs. Albert Mcmillan and ush-
cred into the living room that was
made most inviting in decorations OF
Christmas cactus and other potted
plants.
The meeting was called to order
and the minutes, which are anything
but cut and dried reports of pro-
ceedings in our chapter, were read
by our faithful and witty secretary.
We do not fall asleep when this item
of a business meeting is taken up.
The president and other stated that
we have cause to feel proud OF our
financial success during the fair. Our
membership is small but we worked
and feel that it was not in vain.
The committees who arranged the
attractive booth at the fair building
and who worked like trojans to de-
corate one of the most beautiful floats
our eyes ever gazed upon were
thanked for their energy and faithful
ness. One member told the chapter
that Governor-elect Mcleod said on
a recent trip here that the Winthrop
Daughters float was perfectly beautl-
full and that it took his eye.
Two more names were handed to
the secretary to add to our roll. We
are glad to have our Winthrop sisters
ioin us. This much can be said about
our chapter, it has just nice sized
membership. All have the chance OF
knowing each other right we'll.
1t was decided to fine members
who fail to dishcarge their duty when
thew are on the programme.
Close and appreciative attention
was given to the literary programme
which consisted of paper on The
Old German Christmas" prepared by
Miss Bessie Lee Black, and reading
on element Clark Moore, Author OF
Twas the night Before Christmas" by
Mrs. Aver. A delightful feature of the
programme was the altogether orlgl-
nal paper by Mrs. F. B. McCrackln.
She wrote something personal about
her club sisters, and this afforded a
| world OF fun and laughter and good
fellowship.
At the conclusion Of the pro-
gramme, our hostess assisted by
Mesdames J. F. Carter and Albert
Mcmillan served delicious salad
course with Russian tea.
