GARDEN CLUB TO
ASSUME A NEW
RESPONSIBILITY
Roanoke Island Group Meeting at
seatone Friday Enjoys
Evening

The Roanoke Island Garden
Club for its Christmas party and
its business meeting met on the
evening of December 9th. Mrs. M.
X. Fearing and Mrs. Ernest Yeates
were joint hostesses with Mrs. o.
]. Jones in her home at Seatone.
The lighting and designs in win-
ter greens on the front door intro
duced the Christmas motif that
shone in the decorations through
out the house. The glow of burn
ing logs in a wide fireplace
added warmth to the scene and
the meaning of the season was
emphasized by a madonna and
Christmas angel under indirect
lighting in a nook of the living
room.
The theme for the program was
designs for gift wrappings" and
each club member brought a DEM
onstration package wrapped, which
were placed suggestively under a
Christmas tree. Mrs. Lena Pearsall
led the discussion in ideas for
wrappings and brought out numer-
Gus clever designs.
In the clubs business of the eve
ming, Mrs. Jones reported recent
attendance in Raleigh at the Eliz-
abethan Garden Committee meet
ing where Aycock Brown and
Guy Lennon were Roanoke Islands
representatives. Mrs. Roy Home
wood of Chapel Hill, acting COM
mittee chairman for the Elizabeth
an Garden had told the committee
that there had been gifts sufficient
for the unique and beautiful water
gate, and though the general funds
were very limited, there were
hopes for immediate contracts for
planting the garden in January,
February and March. She said that
by July of this year the garden
would have sight seeing value such
as to justify charge of fifty
cents admission at the gate. This
admission in the future was pro-
posed for the garden upkeep. Since
at present there is no fund for
gate keeper, Mrs. Homewood had
asked if the Roanoke Island Club
could take on this responsibility
for one season. Mrs. Pate Daniels

bonds.
The Governor proposed aboli-
