Stone Castle Chapter
Has EleUenth Anniversary

A birthday anniversary is always an
occasion of special interest, and the
eleventh mile post in the life of Stone
Castle CHAPTER. d. A. R., was marked
bv a very impressive celebration at
the home of Mrs. B. NJ. Davidson on
Wednesday afternoon. Springs offer
ing of birthday flowers gave bright
ness and fragrance to the attractive re-
ception rooms en- suite and the large
attendance was the best indication OF
the keen interest of the members.
Perhaps with deeper meaning than
ever before all joined in singing MY
Country 'Tis of Thee" etc. This was
followed by a prayer of thanksgiving,
voiced by Miss Belle Chatham. In
the usual routine of business many
matters of chapter interest, patriotic,
educational and benevolent were CON
sidered. Attention was called to the
Wilson Foundation, contributions to
be purely voluntary by those who en-
dorse the high ideals OF this great
American.
The local American Legion move
ment for a recreation park received
favorable comment, and Mrs. J. r.
Webb was appointed to represent the
chapter in cooperating with commit
tees from other organizations.
Mrs. Herbert NJ. franklin was
unanimously endorsed for state his
torian AT the request OF the regent,
Mrs. E. T. Jordan, the registrar, Mrs.
A. l.. McLendon, called the roll OF
charter members, a majority answer
ing to their names.
1t is interesting to note that the
chapter was organized with fourteen
members, and up to date 118 have
been enrolled Four Of these have been
claimed by death, several have mar
ried and in other towns are carrying on
this patriotic work. Others for con-
venience have transferred to their
home chapters. A report of the past
years achievements, read by CORE
spending secretary, Mrs. R. f. Bell,
will be presented at the state confer
ence.
The program in charge OF the vice
regent, Miss Louise McNulty, proved
very entertaining. A thoughtful paper
on "Woman's Part in Government
was contributed by Miss Belle Cheat
ham. A vocal solo by Mrs. R R.
Jones was enjoyed. Toasts to the
chapter past, present and future were
happily given in words breathing
loyalty and patriotic devotion by Mes
danes A. J.. Paschaf; ]. S. Lowrey
and Jack McNulty.
A frozen salad course daintily serv-
ed and delightful to the palate was a
feature OF the happy social half hour.
Visitors heartily welcomed were
Mrs. Young OF Columbus, Mrs. S. J.
Thomas Of Waycross, Mrs. ]. P. Per-
ry, Miss Belle Leverette and Miss
Thelma Grimes. The hostesses for the

COUNTY FEDERATION FOR
THE WOMAN'S CLUBS
Members of Club Were Entertained
By Pupils With Health Program.

Following an outline of the State
Federation of Womans Clubs county
declarations have been organized in
many sections OF Georgia, and at the
March meeting of the Dawson club
members voted unanimously to take
this forward step. AS soon as prac-
ticable the various clubs of Terrell
county will be federated. At the recent
meeting special emphasis was given
the health movement, which is just
now of supreme Importance in club
circles. This comes under the depart
ment of public welfare, one of the
most active committees in local mat
tiers. Through the efforts of this COM
mittee, assisted by the president the
Dawson school was fortunate in Sc
curing a nutrition specialist, Miss An
derson, for recent health demonstra-
tons in which the pupils of the Daw-
son public school were greatly inter
ested, and from which they received
much benefit
The members of the club were de-
ightfully entertained by the pupils OF
the second and fifth grades in a we'll
arranged health program. Health
rhymes were given by the pupils OF
the second grade, and a play written
by pupils of the fifth grade was pre-
sented so cleverly by the composers
that it was indeed a rare treat. The
children were in turn most pleasantly
entertained during the social hour as
special guests OF the club. Sandwiches
and tea were served by the hostess
committee.

Silk Stocking Women
Must Work, New Decree
Of the Bulgarian Premier
Compulsory Manual Labor, Perform
ed by Peasant Women, Now I'm
posed on City Residents.

Compulsory work for women OF all
classes is to be imposed by the Bull
garian peasant government, The peas
ant women who do manual labor, say
partisans of the law, will take pleasure
in seeing those ladies in silk stock
ings rustic about bit" Premier STAN
bulivsly, justifying the new law III
recent speech, said:
< "A peasant woman works IN the
country, blowing the ground, often do
ing more than the husband. She spins
the wool and weaves the cloth for the
famiy's clothes. What does the town
lady do? She walks and chats and does
not give birth to children. We must
at least, compel her to labor for the
state.
This is Premier lStambulivsky's sec
ond experiment in forced labor. Soon
after he came into power in 1919 he
introduced a system OF compulsory
service to the state for boys and girls
under 20 and for men between the
ages OF 20 and so. The boys from the
age of 10 and 20 have to serve twelve
months at work for the government
The girls between the ages OF II and
20 have to serve six months. Just what
the premier plans for the silk stock
ing women" to do remains a mystery.
In each case most OF this work is
educational, the boys spending three
months at school learning the manual
tasks which they are to be assigned
to perform, and the girls three months
getting instruction in scientific cook
ing and other household work. Men
between the ages OF 20 and so have
to give three weeks OF every year to
the state for manual tasks without pay.
The biggest task that this c0nscripted
labor army is performing is the drain
ing of marshes, which were sources OF
disease.
