PERSONAL MENTION
A GARDEN
A little garden is the eign
That man believes in God above,
And for the lovely things and fine
Has room within His heart for love.
I never see a pansy bed
Or rose in blossom in a yard,
A tulip with a yellow head,
But that house kindly I regard.
There dwells a man, I tell myself
Who trains a summer vine to climb;
Despite the age's strife for self.
For beauty here he still has time.
Last cynics sneer that men are base
And sordid seekers after gold,
A litlte garden is the place
Where man’s affections we behold.
A little garden bright with bloom
With all the beauty that it brings,
Is proof ’’that someone’s heart has
room
, To cherish nature’s lovely things.

ENGAGEMENT
ANNOUNCED
On Friday afternoon Mrs. E. J.
Adair invited about thirty friends to
her home to play rook. The guests
, soon learned upon arriving that the
afternoon was to have quite a signi
ficant feature. A radio concert was
first enjoyed and then the radio was
for the station of “Love” and
On Tuesday afternoon there was an
important and interesting meeting of
“The Woman’s Club.” The president,
after opening with prayer and Amer
ica, asked for reports from the meet
ing of the Northern Division held in
Laurens, which were made by Mes
dames E. G. Fuller, T. J. Peake, W.
D. Copeland. Miss Olney of the
“Door of Hope,” gave the history of
that institution and talked in a most
touching manner of the needs, and all
hearers were stirred by her appeal
and the club vqted to lend aid. The
meeting was in charge of the School
Committee, and Dr. Fronde Kennedy
made the address of the afternoon.
She first told of her love for Clin
ton and the educators who had meant
so much to her, mentioning Dr. Ja
cobs, Dr. Boozer, Dr. Bean and Dr.
Spencer. She then discussed the
problems of Freshmen and handled
her subject in quite a humorous, in-
telligent and sympathetic manner.
She also scored parents Yor misdi
rected emphasis. Miss Kennedy ex
plained the tone of Freshmen letters:
“This is a horrid place. There is no
one here who really knows how to
teach,” and added that high school
teachers might do much to relieve
the sad plights of Freshmen. She
also urged that parents form a tri
angle with pupils, high school teach
ers and with Freshmen and the dean.
Miss Kennedy urged that pupils be
made responsible before they reach
the college age so that the word
might hot be so pronounced, f There
is a deep gulf between last year in
high school and first year in college,
and the vast majority of pupils re
ceive severe jolts, she said. The
Woman’s Club feels that it has in
deed been honored and the only regret
is that all mothers could hot have
heard Miss Kennedy.
The November meeting will be in
charge of the Library Committee.
Mrs. Stone called attention to the
bond issue to be voted oh November
4th.
