held at the old Colonial home
of Mr. W. P. and Miss Hazel

of the ,county began assembl
ing in McCrory and at ten
o’clock the merry party left in
autos provided through the
kindness of Mayor W. B. Fak
es and the people of McCrory,
for the Musgrove home.
Over one hundred children
gathered on the lawn and had
a delightful time playing
games, discussing the “Xmas
Pig” and listening to story tell-1
ing which seemed to give the
younger members of the club
more pleasure than any thing
else.
As many ol tne ousmess
men had 4come out for dinner
the ladies* and girls spread the
snowy linens on the grass un
der the grand old trees on the
lawn and placed the elegant
dinner. Everything good to
eat was there and an abun
dance of it, just such things as
Woodruff county provides.
Many of the delicious vi
ands were prepared by the
girls of the Agricultural Club
cake, pickel and preserves be
ing among the number.
Dinner being announced the
crowd gathered around the
table and grateful thanks to
God for His wonderful gifts
to the children and man was
offered by Rev. H. M. Lewis.
After feasting on the good
things the boys and girls ad
journed to the house where
more games were played and
stories were told by Mrs.-Mar
garet Williamson, Home Dem
onstration Agent.
When the day was over the
boys and girls declared they
had never enjoyed themselves
more.
