The Charlotte Thompson Home Demonstration Club held its April meeting nt the home of Mrs. Mattie R. Weat on Thursday, April 6th. Although the attendance was not large the meeting wa<* a delightful one. The house was abloom and redolent with lovely spring flowers and the club members were much interested in noting the improvements made recently in her attractive home by our hostess. The meeting was called to order and the devotional part of the urogram conducted by our president, Mrs. Paul Brown. Miss Alma Burgess then asked for a report from the chairmen of the various committees. Miv I a*- West, chairman of the committee on religious and welfare work gave a tine report, but the other committers were not heard from as the chairmen were absent. Plans were discussed for raising a | >um of money to Ik* contributed to I the club scholarship fund. It wax do| > nlrd tn<tt the club would sponsor a | picture, to 'be shown at the school bouse, as soon as we can secure a | suitable one. The business being con: iuded, we adjourned to the kitchen where Miss Burgess demonstrated ; the cooking of apples in colored syrups. showing how they might be used in desserts or salads to give variety in color. She used green and red syrups and the apples were beautiful. As a finishing touch to thjs pleasant meeting, we were invited into the dining room, where we found the table tastefully decorated with Raster rabbits, eggs, and flowers, and were served a deiightful salad course with coffee. The next meeting will be held with Mrs. J. K. Rush and Miss May Rush, at their home on May 3rd. At this meeting we expect to have I a lesson in some knotty problems in sewing. ( ontributed.
