Lord be made members of the board of direc tors, and that the following ladies be re-elected as members of the board: Mesdames J. W. Grimes, W. G. Smrth, Jere E. Cocke, Will Smathere, J. M. Parker, Walter Taylor and Misses Florence Barnard and Dorethea Weaver. "Everybody is glad to come to Ashevllle and 1 am especially so,' said Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, of Win ston-Salcm, who was honor guest for the annual meeting of tho Y. W. C. A., and who came here in the inter est pf the Serbs. Mrs. Patterson spent last surumer in the Balkan states, as a special representative of Madame Slavko-Grovltch, the American wife of the Serbian minister. While in Europe Mrs. Patterson was privileged to visit many notables -and to travel Where few were allowed. In faring as did the hungry and typhus strick en people, Mrs. Patterson mtermm Bled with the conditions and thus gaining her information through the eye, is enabled to present a graphic and accurate narrative of the condi tions in this war torn country. Her address held the large crowd at the most tense attention and long will her words and graceful appearance, clad in the costume of a "Balkan wo man, linger In the minds of the Ashe vllle people who had been wise enough to attend tne event. ; Mrs. Patterson stated that she is be ginning an extended tour and that by virtue of her first appearance being: before an Asheville audience she is more encouraged to continue her work. ' "Do you women in this city lead or drive your husbands?" was about the third remark Mrs.' Patterson made. For a moment In all probabil ity those listening were in wonder ment concerning the interrogation. But dramatically Mrs. Patterson re lieved the tension, and stated that she was indeed glad to see the men com ing out and cooperating with the la dles. She said that the men of Win ston were not. so patriotic to the T. W. C. A. In this connection Mrs. Pat terson said "Winston, however, is the best torn n in the state but Asheville is better than any other." Laugh ter and applause satisfied the speaker that the Ashevllle people present took It in good humor, but would call for a more definite expla nation of the leading question as to the first city of the state. "I bring you a message from the good old Bishop of ths capital of Ker- oia," earn Mrs. Patterson, Dlunsinc with emotion Into the heart of her address, who prior to my leaving his country said, "Will you take the grate ful thanks of a people who are starv ing? Will yon tell the people of America that we do not ask that our stores, bridges and homes be rebuilt Neither do we ask that our loved ones be brought from the dead. But tell America we have walked the way of the cross, and that wo ask powerful America tnat tne treaty o peace be signed, so that never again can this woria suirer as it has in the great war. Mrs. Patterson stated that she replied to the great old bishop, "I shall be honored to take the message." ; "The bishop of Montenegro, an old man nearing his last home, sends to America by me this message," said Mrs. Patterson: God has sent his an gels to save his people. The angels who saved us are the wonderful wo men of America." ' Mrs. Patterson,. who at this June ture of her wonderful address was re ceiving the most intense interest of everyone present, said. "The greatest message'! orougnt pack to the people of the U. 8. A. is the one from the old women of Serbia, who entrusted me to tell you that the hearts of Ameri can women have been all that has kept our hearts beating. Through the ,inaetsftrm of war, when our wo men s throats have been cut and our children starved, the only ray of hop has been that sent here by America, in the form of American women nurses and medical aid." t - Tracing the history of the Serbian nation which has experienced more than" 400 years of bondage under the Turks, and whioh has always fought for an existence, Mrs. Patterson relat ed the history of the Balkan states and declared that Serbia and Rou- mania ar the only two who merit the confidence of the allies or any In dividual. : 0 The speaker explained the geo graphical location of the Balkan states, and declared that the Flume , squabble which is now en, Is purely 1 one in which Italy seeks to cut the commercial throat of Serbia. - In conclusion of her description and narrative of the various Balkan; states, Mrs. Patterson, said that' through all the turmoil of is cen-l turies the Serbs had been seeking the I true cross as aid siotner satalina. dur ing the " reign of Constantino ' the Great and that during the terrors of the world war while Austria. Ger many, Turkey ; and - Bulgaria were Veignlng tortures upon tortures upon the Serbs it was these people who found la cross the American Red tjyoesv pies, have kept up an unprecedented standard in music and art We now can help these starving people, as six dollars a month will foed one person. How many will you save from starva tion The report of the general secretary which iu condensed form covers tho activities of the local association dur ing the year 1919, is as follows: "These are days in which we are thinking of other people rather than ourselves, and working and praying towards a life that will bring to them the highest, good. The keynote of this great sentiment was struck when every club connected with the Toung Women's Christian association ap pointed a representative to serve on the World Fellowship council, where the needs of girls of every nation were discussed and means suggested where by each individual girl of the asso ciation could come to know and feel her responsibility in the progress of the universe. This counsll inspired many social affairs where the spirit of world fellowship was emphasised in the program. Very particularly for Sunday afternoons have plans been made end graciously carried out by tna ciud girts. "The overseas work done during the war has brought to this country the realization that from the girls of the United States leadership must come, and larger education snd train ing must be given them. Most often a girl realizes after her school op portunities have passed, just what vo cation interests her most. Thus, to supplement the work of the schools, asKolatlon classes have been organ ised during the past year in several subjects for which there has been a demand. "But mental training In every In stance has re-emphasized the impor tance of physican education and rec reation. , No program is complete which falls to take into consideration the necessity for this physioal devel opment. One big principle upon which the Toung Women's Christian association Is founded is never to give excuses for not having, but to pro vide whatever Is found necessary re gardless of the handicap. And the handicap in this local association grows greater as the work increases and Increase it must. We now have a live gymnasium class wnicn is oe-1 ing conducted in the High scnooi building, basaars and entertainments held anwhere all over town that we can get accommodations, club meet ings that are so mucn too large rori our inadequate quarters that they havn tn he tekeii out Of doors In summer and In winter we are forced to beg the hospitable shelter of some assembly hall.

On this day the attention of people throughout the country is being directed to the importance of making a Will. In the event of unforeseen accident and death, a Will ia of the greatest value in the protection of property and loved ; ones. By Will, property may - be left largely according to your own wishes. If you do not leave a Will your property will be disposed of according to the in heritance laws of the State, in a manner which you might not have desired. Almost everyone realizes the value of a . Will, and plant at tome time to make one. In a great many cases this plan ia never carried out. Today, while the matter it before your mind, it the time to haye your Will drawn. Tomorrow you may not think of it. See your lawyer today, and observe Make-a-Will Day" by having YOUR ' Will drawn. by the Your Wilt and the Trust Company In your Will you may name a Trutt Company to carry out your 'latt withes, and administer your estate. By naming a Trust Company you can be assured that your Executor will not die or become in capacitated. " -The duties of the Trust Company will be to collect the assets of- your estate, s protect and preserve them, pay claims ; and taxes, and finally distribute . your property according to the terms of your -' Will. The Trust Company is experienced in the work of administraton, and is respon sible, dependable, trustworthy and eco nomical in the handling of your affairs. It is under the direct supervision of the State. The feet received by the Trust Com- pany, being fixed by law, -are the same as received by others for similar services. The cost to your estate is no greater, and often less, than where no Will is left. ; When you see your lawyer today, ask to have your Will drawn, appointing a Trust Company at your Executor.
