HIGHLIGHTS
I attended my niece’s funeral in
Wilmington last Saturday, Mrs. J.
T. Williamson, the former Algie
Rhodes. Mrs. Fred Hood, Mrs. Ber
tha Hood and Mrs. Millard Alford
went with me.
We went on down to Carolina
Beach and spent the weekend and
came back Sunday afternoon and
stopped at Wallace to see the Sam
mie Sampsons, Sophie Hood before
her marriage. Her father, W. M.
Hood and wife are spending some
time with them. He is not any bet
ter. I was sorry I missed Sunday
School and Church, I feel like I
| have lost a great deal when I am
j pot here to go.
Mr. Harold is still not well. He
went to Raleigh for x-rays, we
hope is will soon be better.
Mr. C. E. Stone is not well at
all for the past few days.
Mrs. Mary Kemp is improving,
we are sure glad to know about it.
Mrs. Annie Pace is not so well
of late, but Mrs. Frazier is very
j much improved.
The P. T. A. had a very good
| program Monday nite. It was very
well attended by our Wakefield
Community. We are very proud
of Mrs. A. S. Draughan, our fun
raising committee for the P. T. A.
She is really a go getter when it
jis left to her. I saw the Negro
Minstrel Friday nite and it was a
scream with Sweet Georgia Brown
and her song and dance. I would
j just liked to have faced her in
l that dance. Mrs. Wade said she
would start a dance class for me—
how many would like to join up?
You are no older than you make
i yourself feel and they say life be
gins at 40 so I hope it will begin
for a lot'of us soon. Ha. Ha.
The Woman’s Division of the
J Farm Bureau met Tuesday nite
j with Miss Palmer at the Home Ec.
building. We had a very interest
j ing meeting in packaging food for
the deep freeze, and cooking froz
en food for our families. We all
sampled it & it was really good. We
all enjoyed it immensely. Thanks
to the International Harvester Co.

about 30 present, folks you don’t
know what you missed by not
coming.
The Home Demonstration Club
met with Mrs. Pearl Massey and
Mrs. Lucy Bunn as co-hostess,
Wednesday afternoon with 19 pres
ent. We had a wonderful meeting.
The program was given by Mr.
Dixon and Mrs. Hussey of the
Sherwin-Williams Co., on Salis
bury Street in Raleigh. The pro
gram was on Color Styling and
Harmony and interior decorating
of the home. lam sure if we just
had the time and energy we could
make things around us very pret
ty. We had a new member, Mrs.
Melvin Massey. We are always
glad to have all who will join us,
for anyone that wants to know
more about how to do things. Mrs.
Joe Tippett gave two book re
views, which we enjoyed very
much. Mrs. Massey and Mrs.
Bunn served sandwiches, cake,
nuts, pickles and iced tea. We will
meet next time with Mrs. Melvin
Massey in her home on the 4th
Wednesday in May.
We can’t meet at the Club house
anymore till we get it covered and
repaired. We have SBI.OO raised on
the building fund. I urge anyone
that reads this to send us a dona
tion if it is small, we will appre
ciate it just the same. It takes
dimes to make dollars and we need
several more to get this work done.
I am still selling those hand made
nylon flowers for the building fund
if you want one just see me. I will
be glad to fix you up for $1.50. I
have turned in $33.00 from flowers
sold so far.
Well folks, I feel the fishing
fever coming on now. It must be
103 so I am going out to get some
bait and try them out today.
