As this was the last meeting of the
club year, the following review of the
years work was given by the secre
tary, Mrs. H. H. Harper: “The
Thursday Literary Club, which began
its career quite a number of years ago
as the Ibtudy Class’, sponsored by the
educational department of the Wom
an’s Club, has come to the end of its
first year under its new name. The
past year has been most a successful
one and the members feel that a gooa
deal of knowledge along the line of
study has been acquired. The topic
for the year’s work was “Outstanding
Women of All Ages’’, and the history
of their early lives, activities, interests,
and successes has been thoroughly and
capably presented.

Flower Show Opens
With Many Exhibits
The basement of the First Methodist
i Episcopal church was a place of ut
most beauty as the annual flower
show sponsored in the city by the Hen
derson Garden Club, opened its doors
tthis afternoon at 3 o’clock to the gen
eral pu'olic. It will remain open until
10 o’clock this evening.
The show is the most successful
staged in the city by the sponsoring
club, 211 enries being made at an early
hour this afternoon.
As one walks into the exhibit and
strolls to the left, shadow boxes, at
tractively arranged, greets her. Just
a little further on a very beautiful dis
play of iris in Japanese arrangement
causes one to pause for a second look.
As one passes through a myraid of
flowers, prettily arranged, ones eyes
halt almost instantly on the fruit and
vegetable exhibit the first time ever
for a flower show here. It is most
artistically done and was causing much
comment at the show this afternoon.
Strolling on, for no one can hurry, the
exhibit by children under 10 years of
age attracts the attention. : Thirty
seven entries were made in this classi
fication alone and they include al
most everything from a single flower
to a “penny show” with scores of
small flowers.
Probably the outstanding exhibit
of the entire show is the Italian fruit
jjnd vegetable market by Mrs. S. T.
Peace. Two yellow one laden
with vegetables and the other with
fruits stand in, thq center of the ex
hibit. Flanking the carts on all sides
flowers in Italian vases and holders.
Miss Ann Peace and Miss Alma Par
ham dressed as Italian peasants, lend
a foreign air to the exhibit.
! As one passes along through the
show, the Girl Scout exhibit of wits
flowers attracts the eye immediately.
In this exhibit, there are 24 varieties

truly a thing of beauly.
Two commercial exhibits, a garden

In the center of the spacious base

modern table in their proper arrange

simplicity and harmony of flowers and
china. There are two of these, one in

attractively arranged so as to further
enhance their natural beauty.
Many visited the show this after

CHILD GUIDANCE
By Frank Howard Richardson, M/D., F\ A.' G; V'.'-.-V
When Your Child Says ‘Y Won’t”
“What am I to do when my child
defies me, and flatly tells me ‘I won’t?’
asks a sorely trouble young mother.
And if she goes for counsel to her own
mother, or t some other mther whose
recollectins f her days n the firing
line of parenthood are some what din.
med by the passing years, she will
probably receive but cold comfort.
“I never allowed my children to talk
that way to me”, is the far from re
assuring response. “Why, I never
heard of a child’s actually defying his
mother.” Well, I have; and I don’t
believe that he is necessarily going
straight to perdition for it, either.
But I should much rather advise
this young mother before the defiant
“I won’t” has come; along, to inject
more than its fair share of emotional
tension into the situation. Why. not
avoid this instead of trying to deal
with it after it has taken place?
It is rather unusual for such a bluni
refusal to be made to a simple request.
It is usually the parental command
that calls it forth. Why not realize
that the adolescent t>oy and girl can
be led much more easily than they can
ibe driven. Why not he corteous, even
with our own children?
“That’s not a ladythat’s my wife” is
the attitude of many a parent toward
his children. Yes, 1 grieve to admit it,
toward “her” children, too. Let’s
change that attitude. Molasses beats

“B- C.” should also be used for the ;
