Social Club Organized at Mineral Springs

Mineral Springs, May 28—The Social Workers Club was organized at the home of Mrs. W.L. Motes on the 26th. Miss Effie Alexander was elected president, Mrs. H.A. Helms, vice president; and Mrs. H.A. Carter, secretary. The following members were present: Mrs. E.H. Broom, Miss Effie Alexander, Mrs. H.A. Carter, Mrs. Vann Coan, Mrs. F.C. Doster, Mrs. Tom Griffin, Mrs. J.F. Goron, Mrs. H.A. Helms, Mrs. F.A. Krauss, Mrs. W.W. Laney, Mrs. J. Lee Polk, Mrs. B. Savage, Mrs. George T. Winchester, Mrs. M.M. Winchester and Mrs. Bud Secrest. Refreshments were served by Mrs. Broom and Mrs. Carter. The next meeting will be held with Miss Alexander.

Mrs. Irene Polk, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Beatrice Crowell for some time, has returned home.

Mrs. Holly S. Polk of Chattanooga, accompanied by her grandchildren, Masters Edmond and Hallan Krishboam, is visiting relatives and friends here and will go on to Wadesboro to see her mother.

Mr. and Mrs. Mims Belk were in town Sunday and Monday.

There was a lively debate in the auditorium of the graded school building Friday evening. The subject of discussion was whether or not the United States should join the league of nations. Messrs. E.H. Broom and W.L. Motes took the affirmative and Messrs. F.A. Krauss Sr. and F.A. Krauss Jr. took the negative.

Mr. and Mrs. W.L. Motes have received many invitations from former pupils to attend commencement exercises at Albemarle, Richmond, and New Berry, S.C., all of which they very much appreciate.

Mr. Burrell McManus was poisoned severely on the hands and face while putting out guano supposed to have been due to acid in the fertilizer. The road crew has done some much needed work on the roads here last week.
