same working hours. Club wonen,
through the years, have had
J keen sense of responsibility,
ind we have seen them always
eariy to meet, difficult situations.
Today there are new frontiers fae
ng us?Many forces are breaking
lown the best in life, and as lend
-rst we must go lort-ft- w>t*> conviction
and courage.
Each one of us must speak with
die assurance that will Inspire in
women?throughout the State of
5>outh Carolina, a conviction leadng
to a definite and concerted ef'ort
to meet our obligations pledir
?d toother adequate support of our
Marlon Birnie Wilkinson Home.
Let us as club women excite our
"elationship to our children in the
Home, and recapture some of the
romance we once felt, and you
want to redouble your efforts for
?c "Harvest Festival" to be held
Saturday, October 18th.
No alibi because of shortage of
vegetables arid fruits for canning
iust your staple groceries,??with
:hese our children who are dependent
upon us for development and

responsibility. The, extra -stump
iocs not make the bulging letter
lighter, however, it is ti>e enabling:
act?then it arrives at its
