Tuesday morning was a nc
occasion of the convention whei
splendid addresses were deliv
One by Mrs. L. W. Walker of
kinsonville, Ga., the subject, "v
ed-A New Order of Patriot
This was one of the most remar]
presentations of the subject v
had ever been heard by the cor
tion and proved Mrs. Walker a
table statesman and genius. No v
der the women of Georgia had r
her superintendent of "Chrii
Citizenship."
This was followed by an addres
this subject "What steps shall
newly enfranchised citizens tak
prepare and fit themselevs for t
new duties and responsibiliti'
This was a very valuable prese
tion of the subject, giving in d<
the directions concerning regis
tion, the primaries and general c
tions, clubs nad conventions, etc.
congratulated the women on t
recent enfranchisement and glori
the name of Frances Willard and
san B. Anthony who began the
reforms so near the same time, ,
I who though not living to particip
in their consummation were yet h
ly honored and loved for what tl
had suffered and accomplished,
reiterated the fact that th? pres
Susan B. Anthony amendment,
19th Amendment to the Constitut
of the United States, was the ex
reproduction of the original
drafted by Susan B. Anthony hers
and was passed by the U. S. Congr?
as the Susan B. Anthony Amer
ment. Mr. Crouch said that bc
these great' women passed away 1
fore the consummation of their hoi
were accomplished, and that th
may now rejoice together that bc
of these causes came to their fi
fruition so near the same time. I
also said that it was hardly appi
priate for the anti suffrage leade
to have such deep prejudice at f?
late day as women have Been votii
in one state nearly fifty years ai
in others for many years and that
is no new thing. He also said that tl
last fifty years had been the mo
progressive in the history of tl
world, and as women had been ei
franchised gradually beginning fifi
years ago, not only in our own cour
try, but in nearly every other coun
try, he wondered if there was not
very evident connection betwee
these two facts.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Tillma
conducted a song service and Mrs
J. M. Workman of Newberry led th
devotions. The credential committee
Miss Leila Attaway, chairman, re
ported 67 voting delegates and thi
election of officers took place. Th<
following officers were elected: Mrs
Josept Sprott, president; Mrs. J. L
Mims, vice-president; Mrs. T. R
Denny, recording secretary; i Miss
Cleo Attaway, corresponding secre
tary; Mrs. Chas. P. Robinson, treas
urer, all of them practically unan_
mous. The other new secretaries and
superintendents will be found in the
directory.
Mrs. Jas. H. White made a very
interesting, historical and Frances
Willard Day report which we hope
to publish in a succeeding issue of
our paper. At the close of the after
noon session, the delegates formed
a circle and sang "Blest be the Tie
that Binds.'
Tuesday Evening.
The last session of the convention
was up to the standard in enthusiasm,
Dr. R. G. Lee of Edgefield Baptist
church being the speaker/ His ad
dress made a great impression on
those who were fortunate enough to
hear him and was a great pleasure
to the Johnston people who have
learned to love him, as well as to
the many strangers present. His
theme was the supreme need of
the Christian life. At the close of the
address, collection for state work
was taken amounting to more than
$200, including previous hat collec
tions. This did not include pledges
the unions made during the day ses
sion.
Mrs. J. L. Minis, chairman of the
Resolution committee read the report
Financial Loss Due to Colds.
It is estimated that the average
man loses three days time each year
before the convention in which the j from inability to work on account of
delegates expressed their gratitude-j-hav?ng a coid. Much of this loss can
for the great and cordial hospitality j be avoided by treating every cold as
of Johnston. Rev. W. S. Brooke, pas- j son as the first symptoms of the dis
tor of the Johnston church arose andjease appear. Chamberlain's Cough
said that he must give an expression \ Remedy has won a wide reputation
from the people of Johnston for their j and jmmense sale by its cures of this
enjoyment of the convention and the ; disease. Try it. You are certain to be
benefit derived from it. He said he I pleased with its pleasant taste and
would .always love the W. C. T. U.|the ^om^ relief whlch ? affords'
more now that he had known the j
personnel of it better.
