The first exhibit in the series was supervised" by Mrs. Geneva Baten and showed skilledful work in embroidery and crocheting, and the making of pillows and hats. The work of this exhibit and ?f the remainder of the series was done by Baptist women from all over the state. Of especial interest because of its unique nature was a table about two feet high, with a compartment in the top for teals,..tbi' v,.whole being supported, not by fobr lefes as usual, but by one leg that was really a "leg". The ingenious artist had cfarved a woman's leg, with a shoe on the foot and an excellent specimen which, being attached to a wooden banc was the sole support 6f the tool-top tables ? The bead-work in several quaint arrangements and in "the making of necklaces was interesting. Several electric light bulbs had been completely covered with a sack formed from white beads, making a jeweled and interesting effect. J "Anniversary Quilt" rs. Bettie B. Jones, of Green? wiixftl was in ih.uge of tilt' "fthniversarv" nnilt- whirV. - h r nut fn. gether herself from many different squares of Velvet material contributed by the various missionary societies-"nver- the state. Each society contributed one piece to go mto the making of the quilt, there ? -beings more "than 100 of these groups in the state. The society that donates the most money above $10 at the convention will be allowed to take the quilt back with it, some other method being then arranged whereby an individual may become the possessor. Each velvet block in the quilt carries in needle-v.'ork the name of the society that made it. The second exhibit was that of Mount Moriah school, showing work which was done by pupils during the activity period of the year. Clever-maps of South Carolina, charts of flowers, delectable foods, health advice, a representa port of a safety sipnal lifrht cut ?? out of colored paper a.nd pasted on a;, background, and other work of the pupils formed ft- part of this exhibit.
