An informal sxrfumor dance was given
at th 'Country Club on Friday evening
by the young men of the eit-y in convpH*
nient to ?oane of Camden's fnir visitors.
The .music waw furnisher} by Hall's Or
chestra from Cohunbia and guests from
nY^ny near-by towns were 'present.
.MEETING OF
CIVIC LEACH' K 'M
The League met 011 High School park
Monday afternoon at 0 o'clock. The for
mer President Mrs. X. II. Goodaie pro
sided and Miss Louise Nettles was sec
retary pjjo-tem. There- were no reports
from officers or committees. Mrs. Aneriuu
made a hiotion that the LeaRue, with
the approval and assistance of the City
Council plant Youcca on Laurens Street]
from Lyttleton to Mill Streets, inclusive.
The .motion was carried.
The League discussed the Fountain
011 Kershaw Park. It was decided to
trim the ivy* and put a new spigot on
fountain.
Mrs. von Treaekow reported that they
would have to pay the maid who takes
care of the Re?t Room more or give her
up. A committee composed of Mrs. von
Tresckow. Mrs. Coleman and Miss WiiHie
Watkius was appointed to solicit funds
for the Rest Room.
The improvement of the Southern an<^
Seaboard stations was urged and 6 com
mittee appointed to look into the mat
ter..
The League failed agqftk to elect a
president and a committee consisting of
Mesdames von Trsckow, Edwin Muller,
and C. P. DnBose were appointed to
take charge for three months, until a
president could be secured.
. Mrs. N. R. Qoodale was elected his
torian.
It is the wish of all to see this or- j
ga nidation prosper and we trust that the
women of Camden wiili *ra41<y to itf?
stamlard. "The city beautiful" should
toe the motto of everyone loyal to the
old town that nature has so generously
endowed. Camden can surely be made
a land of perpetual bloom that coul4
not be rivaled by fair Japan or any
other flowery realm. We dream of the
beautiful that is far away but fail to
r*ul^?.vatn and develop the beauty "that
!?' all c round us.
'Whv thus longing, thus forever sighing
For the far-off uiiattnined and dim. ^
While the beautiful all around thee lying
Offers up it's low perpetual hymn?
.MKT WITH MISS
LEILA SHANNON
The Ilobkirk Hill Chapter was greatly
disappointed when the down-jxmr from
leaden clouds on last Thursday nfter
n?>ou prevented their expected trip to
Kershaw where -they were to be enter
tained at the home of Mrs. John Stevens.
They were . vanquished in the war with
the <4ement? but hope that the promised
pleasure is still in store for them. The
Chapter met on Tuesday afternoon with
Miss Leila Shannon. It was decided
to buy the piano and at the very earliest
date possible make the Chapter Hall
ready for entertainment*. They- hope
to give a dance there in* the near fu
ture. The_ Chapter will be one of two
Chapters in the State to compiete aud
furnish the porch of "Taumvassee" and
was asked to make it a memorial. The
menxbers preferred however to make it
a testimonial of love to th?r.3hnng and
so t.b<? Ilobkirk HiU tablet at Tammaswe
^ Will- bear the much loved name of Mrs.
Mary Ancrum Shannn^i, the Chapter's
firs^ regent. An election of officers re
sulted in the choice of the following
Regent, Mrs. E. C. vonTmsrkow, vice
regent, Misa Minnie Clyburn, Recording
Secretary Miss Leila Shannon, corre
sponding secretary, Mis? Helen Phelps,
treasurer, Mr*, fl. E. Taylor, registra,
Mrs. John S. Lindsay, historian, Mrs.
James Rums. An executive" committee
consisting of Mrs. H. I#. Watkin*, Mrs.
W. 8. Hu met and Mrs. 8. C. Zemp was
appointed by *he regent
ii mo it s it mo it KKCKI*T10N
. A lovely affair of the week wa* the
reception jtiveu by the Junior claw Of
the t'atnden High Hchool in complement
t?> the XeUh ra. It was given at the hoine
? l Mr. and Mrs. A. Wittkowsky,
whose (*e>,t'ge in class presideut, A
receiving linr formed of the junior* and
their teacher .Mis-, Krat ton euci riled the
terrace and welcomed the guests wla>
passed on to the south porch' and wore
wehviucd by Mr. und Mrs. NVittkowskj .
The par.lors were beautifully dworaled
in white and green, the chute colors,
great quantities of white flower* blend
ing effectively with the inas>y green
ferns and trailing tmillav. In the dinr
lug room jthe class flowers, sweet-peas.
nivNiiiiinated and were used I in pt\)ifu*
ion. and it was here (hat ice cream and
cake were served- the color scheme of
gi-een and white being carried out in
every ilptail.
OaniM were played and wen- progres
sive, tin-' score cards liuviug tin* class
flower hand painted as a decoration.
In an attractive booth on the porch
a far-famed fortune teller held forth,
fcjhe had eone from afar to portray a
happy fortune (we hope) for every youth
And maiden.
The porch was made further attract
ive by a crystal bowl embedded in ferns
and tilled with sparkling launch which
was served to the thirwty constantly dur
ing the eveniui?.
The score price for the gain en was won
b> Miss 13mm h V+Heplgue and was a
beautiful box of candy while Mis** Wilbur
McOalluui found ample consolation in a
lovely bunch of sweet peas.
And so this week fop ?the High School
slrlv a i|d boys will he one of happy
memories and bright anticipations for
"Youth with swift feet walks onward
iii the way.
The land of joy lies all before his eyes".
DANCK AT ^
BLOOMSBVRY
*. The beautiful home of Mr. nn'd ^Sfrs.
A. I). Kennedy. Jr., was thrown open
Monday evening for a dance given under
the auwpices of the Red Cross Chapter.
It was a compliment to the visiting sol
diers and the delightful mUsio furnished
by the 42 nd Infantry orchestra. These
spacious rooms thrown ensuite made an
?deal dancing hall that amply accommo
dated the large crowd. There were no
invitations issued, the pleasure of the
ovening was extended to all who wished
to attend. The affair was quite a suc
cess in every particular.
What Are Tlie Duties of a fhaperone?
In the old days when manners were
in bloom, mothers felt secure in allow
ing their (laughters to attend any func
tion properly chaperoned knowing ' that
the chaperones stood in the mother'6
place to safe-guard the reputation of the
girl and shield her from any adverse
criticism caused by the frivolity, inex
perience and innocence of yocth. In those
days chaperones did not join Jn fun-mak
ing, laughing, clapping, applauding what
they considered indelicate or immodest.
If the girl was indiscreet she was gently
taken aside and advised an<l this nearly
always had the desired effect for in most
cases it is merely thoughtlessness and
foreign to any evil intention. Nor did
the chaperones go out and speak of any
little indiscretion, rolling it a? a sweet
morsel under their tongue anffNqlluding
Jo i^ ? in every assemblage that they hap
""p^n to be in. Today they forget to throw
the "mantle of charity" around the in
discretions of youth and fail to put them'
selves in a mothers place. Oh, Change
thou art written upon all things and cer
tainly upon the chaperones of today.
An Interested Mother.
