R. F. Beasley was nominated
or the Legislature. J N.Price
ind George S. Lee, Ir., will conest
for the second place in the
W. M. U. Meeting at Jefferson I
The quarterly meeting of the
W. M. U. which was held at |
Jefferson June 2 was indeed a
success. Mrs. A. F. Funder
burk's talk was splendid. The 1
article also by Mrs. Ed Miller .
was especially good .and she read
it so impressively. In fact '
all the program was well carried
out. 1
We had with us also Mrs. J. R. ,
Fiser, secretary of S. C. W. M. ,
U. of Columbia. Now this is :
just a plainlv stated fact but no
one except those who were
present knows what that fact
means. Mrs. Fiser is one ot the
best speakers we have heard and
there is a magnetism about her
personality that is simply charming.
It is an inspiration indeed
to be witn her and we felt like
every minute of her presence
with us was precious. She car
ried us to the hilltops and gave
us a glimpse of the great and
beautiful work we are trying to
have a part, though small it
may be in doing. She inspired
us with strength and courage
and enthusiasm that we shall not
soon forget. The S. C. W. M.
U. is very fortunate indeed in
having such an officer as she is.
This division was also made
glad by having with us Mrs. B.
S. Funderburg and Mrs. Charles
Rivers of Chesterfield. Thev
were helpful in making our
meeting a success.
Those good women of Jefferson
also deserve mention, but
there were so many who were
so kind to us that we cannot
mention names here for fear of
the waste basket.
The next meeting of the Chesterfield
W. M. U. will be our
Annual Convention, which will
be held in September with the
Cross Roads church.
