Club under the leadership of the
new president. Miss Louise
Haynes.
The first project, sponsored by
the Garden Group, is concerned

Methodist Women’s
First Sale Is
Pleasing Success
Food prepared by the Metho
dist women for their bake sale
Saturday went like the proverbial
“hot cakes.” Advance publicity
stated that the sale would last
from 8:30 until 2:30, but by 10
a. m. everything—cakes, pies,
cookies—had been sold, adding
$40 to the treasury. Some custom
ers bought more than their cur
rent needs, to put in freezers.
Speaking for the Woman’s So
ciety of Christian Service, of
which she is president, Mrs. J. S.
Hiatt expressed her appreciation
of the generous patronage given

, appreciate advance orders, Mrs.

Kings To Occupy
New Home Soon

into their new home on Boiling
Spring Circle, off Midland Road,
tomorrow (Saturday).
Refreshments were served by
Mrs. Joseph Haney and Mrs. Jack
Ramsey.
This club, which had not pre
viously reported its activities, is
the first of its kind in the Sand
hills, so far as The Pilot knows.
Inquiring into its history, ii
was learned that prior to last
spring, small groups of mothers
sponsored special events for the
then junior class. One Of the
group conceived the idea of call
ing the mothers of all the juniors
together to plan and finance the
class breakfast. This was done
and so satisfactorily did it work
out that the mothers decided to
organize a club, to meet at the
call of the president, through
their children’s senior year.
With the whole group working
together, they feel they will be
able to guide and aid the young
people in their plans and serve as
chaperones for their parties, with
out working a hardship on any
one, a club spokesman explained.
When asked about the young peo
ple’s reaction to the club, the re
ply was “Wonderful! Now they
can make plans and feel that
their parents will back them.”
Garden Club, Meeting
At Mrs. Avery’s, Hears
Talk By Mr. McNairy
The Southern Pines Garden
Club met Monday afternoon at
the home of Mrs. L. T. Avery,
with Mrs. R. M. McMillan pre
siding in the absence of the pres
ident, Mrs. A. H. Grant.
After a brief business session,
the program committee, headed
by Mrs. Thomas Darst and Mrs.
John Ostrom, presented Mr. Mc
Nairy of Laurinburg, who spoke
on the planting of spring-bloom
ing bulbs and how to be a daffodil
fancier.
In honor of Mrs. Ostrom the
hostess featured the anniversary
theme in her refreshments, serv
ing birthday cake and tea.
There has been much activity
around the' Presbyterian Church
in the neighboring village of
Manly during recent months, as
is evidenced by the new recrea
tion building and the remodeled
and redecorated church building.
Now the two organizatichs that
have been especially active—
Women of the Church and Men of
the Church—are joining hands to
stage a big affair on the evening
of Wednesday, November 17
which they hope will bring in the
$1,000 needed to pay for new
pews for the church—the final
phase of the improvement pro
gram on which they have been
working. It has been named a
Colonial Dinner and Carnival-
Bazaar.
Mrs. John Moore Goldsmith is
general chairman, with Mrs.
Louis Honeycutt as her assistant,
and Eveleth Richardson of the
men’s group has been designated
purchasing agent for the dinner,
which the women in the photo
graph are to plan and serve and
the men to prepare. The Manly
churchmen prepared and served a
dinner' for the women of the
church a few weeks ago, winning
much praise, so they are being
entrusted with this important
phase of the endeavor.
Serving is scheduled to begin
at 5:30 and continue until 8 p. m.,
with young women in colonial
costumes watching out for the
needs of patrons.
At 8 p. m., a “quilt-walk” will
be held, with Mrs. Goldsmith in
charge. The grand prize will be a
tulip quilt made by women of the
church. It will be a copy of the
quilt shown in the accompanying
photograph, which was made by
Mrs. Goldsmith’s great-grand
mother, Mrs. Effie Johnson, prior
to the Civil War. During the war
the quilt lay buried in the back;
yard of the Johnson home on the'
Chicken Road between Fayette
ville and Fort Bragg and was thus
saved from destruction. It has
won prizes at eight N. C. State
Fairs. The flax spinning wheel is
also a relic that was brought out
of the Fort Bragg territory.
The carnival feature will include
games of skill and various forms
of entertainment, and the bazaar
will offer items in wide variety
suitable for gifts for the coming
holiday season.
Mrs. Goldsmith has named a
number of committee chairmen
including the following:
Toy booth, Mrs. Dan West; food
booth, Mrs. G. L. Culler; aprons,
Mrs. Alton Monroe; white ele
phants, Mrs. W. H. Hicks; fancy-
work, Mrs. Woodrow Boroughs;
sewing, Mrs. J. B. Cameron; cake
walk, Miss Mary Scott Newton.
Dave Castro will supervise the
preparation of the dinner and
men will man the various carni
val booths.
