Pilgrimage

Mesdames Duncan Mcdonald, Roy
Ehlers and Arthur Jones.
From the Colley garden the
pilgrimage was routed to the
beach where the rose garden of
Capt. and Mrs. H. H. Cole has
become an outstanding example
Of the cultivation Of roses. In
addition to numerous bushes of
the more familiar species Capt
Collie has added hundred of BUSH
es of the newest kinds of roses
including clear yellow, pale pink
and brilliant reds. The size of
the individual blooms is almost
Incredible. Guides here were
Mrs. Louis Frederic, Misses Doro-
thy Rhodes, Ann Lunsford and
Catherine Lockard.
Wide Range
A stop at the garden and
grounds of the home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Q. v. Streed impressed one
with the amazing amount of work
and effect that has been accom-
plished by Mrs. Streed in only a
few years. In the carefully plan
ned beds of flowers the range of
plants is almost unbelievable.
Mrs. Streed planned her own
garden and tends it herself with
only the help of Mr.. Streed. Guild
ing the guests around the grounds
were Mesdames Streed, Vertis
Ramsay, E. J. Baum, John Devine
and II. B.. Moore, Jr.
Mesdames L. C. Weber, c. G.
Gaskin. George Winter, Clai-
borne Koch, C. w. Fewel and
Miss Carolyn Rhodes received
the guests calling at the Long
fellow House and escorted them
around the spacious grounds.
Mrs. John Watts greeted the
visitors and assisted by Mes
danes c. F. Wadsworth, C. C..
Mccoy, Jr., Ross Grady and Miss
Polly Mcclure conducted a tour
through her beautifully tended
garden.
Huge oak trees featured the
carefully handicapped grounds of
DR.. and Mrs. S. e. McIlwain
where guests enjoyed wander
ing around the extensive grounds
overlooking the water, guided by
Sara Stokes and Lila McIlwain.
During the hours of the pill
grimage tea was served at the
Arts and Crafts Center where a
display of Hooked rugs was on
exhibit. Members of the host
clubs, the Lake Garden club and
the Pascagoula Garden club, serv-
ed tea and presided as hostesses,
while members of the rug max
ing classes served as guides in
explaining and showing the rugs
on exhibit.

Judge A. K. Doss dismissed the
charge and Wash made his de-
parture, saying, 81 never have

Judge, since you say those days

December, the best loved
month of the whole year, is
here again. It always seems to
sneak up on us, then suddenly
bursts out in a blaze Of tinseI,
colored lights and happy anti
cipation. Everybody seems
friendlier and happier at this
time of year.
With all the sorrow and trou-
BILE in the world, the age-old
words, "Peace on Earth, Good
Will Toward Men," still hold
true at Christmas time.
I read something a while back
that seems to be aflittle out of
step with the spirit of Christ
mas, though, and at the same
time uses Christmas as a poor
excuse to poison the minds of
children.
Hungarian children are sup
posed to enjoy a game this
Christmas called, who Contri-
buted Most to Socialism" The
game consists of cards with
questions concerning the new
Russion five-year plan for
Hungary. The child who answers
the most questions correctly is
the winner, of course. If a
child has an aversion toward
cards, he can play a game that
is almost identical, with dice.
Unless Hungarian children are
a lot different than most
American younsters, I'm afraid
the game won't make very much
