20 members of Mary Church
Terrell Literary Club met at the
Branch YMCA on Thursday after
noon with Mines. w. E. Miller and
S. B. Thomas as Co-Hostesses.
Much business of Importance was
transacted.
Recognizing the fact that the
time for closing our activities for
this Club Year is fast approaching,
Terrell is trying to cover its sche-
dule and end the year with the
Annual Garden Party, the Social
Event to which the General Public
is always invited. This is really
their Party, as it is Terrelps way
of expressing appreciation to the
many friends for their loyal sup
port across the year. This date
will be announced in the near fu-
ture.
Reports were given on the An
nual Race Relations Day Program,
an outstanding Event of the year;
the distribution of Terrell Birthday
Calendars and the clearing of the
Club Budget. Terrell contributes
annually to many Civic Causes in
Jackson and the Committee sought
to cover it's commitments for the
Club Year.
During the program hour Mrs.
Ruby E. Suits Lyalls gave a very
Informative report on stimulating
reading materials with excerpts
from books for ali ages and fitted
al moods. Members were encour-
aged to visit Carver and College
Park Libraries and refresh them
selves with books.
After waiting for many years,
Terrell Club now has a Club Song.
After hearing the various compo-
sitions submitted by Club Members,
by popular vote, the membership
made its choice. Following the
public announcement of the Com
mittee, the Composer, Mrs. G. w.
Williams, revealed herself as same
and was given an ovation by the
membership. This song will be dis
tributed at an early meeting for
use by the membership in most
meetings.
Terrell Club is grateful to it's
many friends for support in the
Race Relations Day Program and
for their acceptance of our first
effort to distribute a Birthday
Calendar. This Calendar is already
proving itself herald of fellow
ship and good will.
At the March meeting members
will begin again to become better
acquainted with our Government
and with Civic problems affecting
US. Co-Hostesses will be Mines.
E. E. Redmond and L. w. Price.
Terrell Club is setting aside a
small amount of money for Prizes
for Boys at Oakley to stimulate a
greater appreciation of SPELL
ING. The Committee will operate
this as feasible. Perhaps in the
near future this Prize will be of
fered to you and me.
At the close of the meeting a
very pleasing salad plate was
served the members present.
