On two tables under the trees were lovely center pieces of yellow, the cloths bor- dered with yellow flowers, and from table Mrs J. F. Hightower served Delaware punch from the bottles the straws tied with the eolors of tho evening, rom the olheF td ole Mrs. Howard Patterson served the salad plates which were lovely as well as most appetizing.
 Soon the boys and girls were grouped about on settees and on the oriental rugs with pretty coiored oiored pillows, just here as they chattered merrily came one of the most en- joyabie features. Around the house appeared Mrs. Howell Griffin inn personating an old colored woman and "speaiSing of Husbands" Good advice to the young women at the expense of the young men was given and received hearty applause. This was declared by the guests to be one of the prettiest as well as most unioue and lovely parties ever given in Brundidge. These two charming young daughters of MT. and Mrs. James F..

MoNTEyALLO ALUMNI NAMES

MONTEVALLO. Ala, Sept 7,-For the first time the Montevallo Alumnae association is to have a regular executive secretary who will stay at the college. This office was created at the July meting of the executive board, being only part time. thus enabling a girl to per form her duties as secretary and pursue her college course at the same time.
 The original idea was to secure the services of some former student now eligible to the alumnae association who desired to return to her Alma Mater and work for degree. No one being found under these condi- tions, a high school graduate has been employed.
 Miss Nell Browder, daughter of MT. J. W. Browder. superintendent of ed- ucation in Cherokee county will act as the alumnas executive secretary for the coming year. Miss Browder Is a girl of great capabilities, having assisted her father In his office for several years and also being one of the leading members of her class, graduating with high honors the past May. This summer she has been a student at Jacksonville Normal, taking the junior high school teach CTS course and typewrlting. She Is pretty and attractive and has a very winning way of making friends. The alumnae association may safely trust its welfare into her hands.
 Miss Browder will register as a student at Monevallo the tenth and will take up her duties as secretary the fifteenth.

FIRST PUBLIC SCHOOL

Robert Lenthal, a Church o1 England clergymas. In the colonial days in America little thought was given to the education of the children of the common" people, and among the well-to do the opinion generally prevailed that such people were bet ter off without any education. The Rhode Islanders did not share the view, however, and when the Rev Lenthal proposed to keep 6 public school for the learning of youth" he found ready support for his project. He was granted 100 acres of land to be laid forth and appropriated for a school, for encourag ement of the poorer sort, to train up their youth in learning"
