Mississippi Woman Serves Fighting Ren As Y. W. C. A. Worker KATY BOYD GEORGE. She is rather wee and very winning. Her eyes repeat the blue on her Y. ? W. C. A. uniform that carries the ' Insignia of her service. Her hair, ' grey for all the shortness of her span of years, frames a face worn, not thin, but fine with a suffering that is more than merely vicarious. She has lived is the shadows, has stood by while the thrns were pressed down above tortured eyes, has held (he hands of those who knelt in their Getbsemane. In a very literal and unrestricted sense, "She hath done what she could" for those who overseas endure what we, sheltered and safe, read about She is to tell her story \ all cities of our Southeastern Department as a National speaker for the T. W. C. during the United War Work Campaign to raise $250,000,000 during the week of November 11. At the recent United War Work Convention in Jackson, she was wanted Cor a speech in the main convention hall while she was busy with committee work elsewhere. Several efforts were made to find her, the program lagged. .. Presently Gypsy Smith was missed out of a front seat; soon after he returned leading her up the aisle. At the foot of the rostrum he gathered up with a sweeping gesture R. H. y King, J. M. Clinton, Capt. George S. Dingle and O. W. Buschgen. As the audience rose to its feet at sight of "Our Katie'* the five men, like prankish school boys, made a crescent background for the one small woman, while from five throats?bass, tenor and baritone?rolled the lilting strains of > "Katie.** To Katie Boyd George Mississippi *women owe the fact that today the . name of their grand old commonwealth is on the map of national and international service. Shall all women by concert of effort and sacrifice honor her splendid achievement? , We owe her a special sort of allegi ance?a fealty of duty, of tradition ana affection. When she speaks one hears again the vibrant voice of her grandfather, J. Z. George, as in legislative halls during trying days of reconstruction, he helped to mould the destiny of our generation. Her forebear's indomitable spirit rings in her voice, emanates from her smaH supple frame, calls to you from her steady eyes. RAINBOW DIVISION COLONEL COMMENDS Y. M. C. A. WORK Colonel Screws Says Alabama Rest* idents Are Appreciative Of Red Triangle Service To Soldiers There Birmingham, Ala., Oct. ?.?"In my opinion there is nothing that the Y. M. C. A. can ask of the people of Alabama which they would not give if they only knew half of the excellent work being done by your organization," writes Col. William P. Screws, Commander 167th Infantry (Old 4th Alabama), in a letter to Borden Burr, who recently returned from France, where he was engaged in War Work for the Young Men's Christian Association. Leaving out expressions of personal praise, at the request of Mr. Burr, Colonel Screws' letter is as follows: "On behalf of tfeft officers and enlisted men of the 167th Infantry (formerly the Fourth Alabama Infantry), I wish to thank you for the excellent and valuable work that you have done with us, and with other American troops, since your arrival in France. "In niy opinion too much praise cannot be given the Y. M. C. A. for the excellent work they have done and are now doing for our men over here. As you know, from personal observation since you have been with us, the "Y" workers are present in time of need and get some of the luxuries of life to the men that they would not otherwise get. "As the commanding officer of the regiment, I wish to thank you personally for your excellent efforts and your many deeds of valor and kindness shown all through our hard campaigns, in which you were present with us from first to last." Alabama residents are to be given an opportunity to give during the week of November 11, when $170,500,000 will be raised to continue another year the work of the Y. M. C. A. and other welfare work agencies. ! j Fresh Oysters Fresh Norfolk Oysters now served regularly.
