H .Tedford, historian called attention to the four Red Letter Days in January. Jan. 22nd was the day on which Calvin Crozier Chapter was or ganized in 1909. Then she pre sented Miss Buzhardt who dis cussed the accomplishments of three famous Americans whose birthdays are celebrated in January: Matthew F. Maury, Robert F. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. Miss Buzhardt read an article from the UDC mag azine which gave some bio graphical data. Robert E. Lee is called the incomparable “First Gentle man of Virginia.” Entering the Military Academy at West Point at the age of 18, he made during the next four years a perfect cadet record, graduating at the head of his class of 1829. He received his commission as second lieuten ant in the Engineer Corps. La ter, in 1852, he was appointed superintendent of his Alma Mater. In the Confederate army he distinguished himself as a strategist and tactician. Sever al years after the close of the war he became the president of Washington College, n o yr Washington and Lee Universi ty. He died October 12, 1780 at the age of 63. Thomas Johnathan Jackson was born January 21, 1824. When he was three years of age he was an orphan. Al though he had scant education background, he received an appointment to West Point. He had a remarkable career as a brilliant courageous soldier and was a profoundly religious man. His career ended tragi cally. Matthew Fontaine Maury was bom near Fredericksburg, Va. January 14, 1896. His fam ily moved to Tennessee during his early years. He received a commission in the U. S. Navy which he resigned at the out break of the Confederate war, serving as commander in the Navy of Virginia and then in the Confederacy. In 1862 he served as an agent to England for the Confederacy. He has been called the “Pathfinder of the Seas” because he contribut ed much to improve ocean tra vel. After the interesting pro gram, the president conducted a business session during which she welcomed Mrs. W. Roy Anderson and Mrs. A. H. Counts back into the chapter. She announced that the Lee- Jackson program would be held at Newberry High school Jan uary 21 at 9:15 a.m. SHOPPERS TAKE NOTICE! Newberry Mills Inc.
