She makes these timely suggest ions for homemakers. Adopt fire prevention pract ices. Teach your children to be come fire conscious. You can ap point one of the older children as your “Christmas fire chief” to help you keep fire from mar ring a joyous occasion. To lessen the fire danger, do not buy flammable materials in toys, decorations or garments. “Christmas wouldn’t be Christ mas without a tree for the child ren,” Mrs. Herrick says, “but be sure to take every safety pre caution with your tre^.” Keep the tree standing in water while it is in the house. This will help to keep the needles from dry ing out. Check the water level at least once a day for absorption and evaporation. Water will keep the tree green and greatly reduce its flammability. Check electric cords on Christ mas tree lights before putting them on the tree—replace any worn cords. Check to see that your tree lights bear the label of Underwriters Laboratory. Always disconnect Christmas lights when no one is around to watch. - When presents are being un wrapped, have a large box handy to hold the discarded gift wrap pings and strings. Dispose of the debris as soon as possible. One spark could ignite thin tis sue wrapping paper. In decorating high places with greenery, use a safe sturdy lad der to prevent injury from falls. C of C Group Has (Permits Program At UDC Meeting JUST IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS LADIES AND MENS BULOVA WATCHES Priced from $24.75 i Members of Drayton Ruther ford Chapter look forward each year to the December meeting when Miss Sallie Lee Cromer’s Elementary group of the Children of the Confederacy take over the historical program: On Tuesday afternoon, in the home of Mrs. Elbert Dickert, eight girls from the £th grade not only gave a progi*um beginning with, the discovery or America down to the present, but led in the sa lutes to the three flags, gave the devotional by repeating a Psalm in unison, and singing the Lord’s Prayer. The little girl who w T as the nar rator was far superior to many heard over radio. She gave each event with its setting; then one of the others would follow with additional information, followed by a song or a poem related to the event. Each one knew exactly when to come in with her part; all were dignified and thoroughly in earnest with their presenta tions. It was not only an informa tive program, but a very delight ful one. At the close they slipped out to the breakfast room for refreshments. The chapter came to order with the reading of the November min utes and the names of committee members for the coming year. Mrs. R. D. Wright was asked to give some of the highlights of the recent General U. D. C. conven tion that met in Richmond. There were between 750 and 800 in at tendance, South Carolina having 38 in its delegation. At each night session there was one or more guest speakers but none of these were more interesting than Gen. Ulysses Grant the 3rd., who is head of the National Advisory Centennial Committee for the War Between th Q States. An election year convention is always inter esting and more or less exciting, and this one was especially so, said Mrs. Wright. The new President General is Mrs. Robert Bachman, a native of Tennessee, a member of the U. D. C. for 35 years, ex-president of the Tennessee Dmehm, ex-Regis- trar, and has initiated and com pleted some most worthwhile pro jects in the General U. D. C. She is dedicated to the work of the organization. Mrs. Baker announced a joint meeting of the Executive and Fi nance committees in her home for the afternoon of December 13th., at 4 o’clock. ‘ 1 • Mrs. B. A. Buddin was welcom ed as a visitor. Mrs. Baker ' ex pressed to Miss Cromer the sin cere appreciation of every one present for the pleasure she had given the members of the chapter through the program by these well trained children.

Typical scenes, famous buildings and landmarks capture for ever memorable sights and occasions. Monuments, too, are always associated with the cities in which they are located. Visitors to Savannah, Ga., will recognize above Johnson Square, stud the monu ment which marks the final resting place of Revolutionary War General Nathanael Green. The square, was laid out in 1733. In the background is City Hall, where tablets at the entrance commemorate important events in Savannah’s maritime history. In 1819, the S. S. Savannah, first steamship to cross the Atlantic, sailed from Savannah. In 1843, the city saw the launching of the S. S.
