Capwell on park hill ana with a very large number of the ladies out to enjoy the nrat gathering and to discuss the plans of the coming year's work. The plans for the year were uis- ! cussed at some length by Mrs. E. H. Wescott, the club president and the ladies have a large number of most interesting studies and activities to face them during the fall and winter when the club will be functioning in all departments. The ladies discussed the plans for the county convention to be held at Eagle on October 10th and also the state convention at Norfolk on Octo ber 22 to 24th inclusive. The meeting was featured by a fine program that was both enter taining and instructive, James and Cecil Comstock being featured in a trumpet and piano number while A'ias Jean Hayes, was heard in a very cl.armir.f, vocal selection that this gifted lady presented in her usual delightful manner. The main feature of the evening was the talk given on the subject of "The Constitution" in which Miss Jessie M. Robertson covered very thoroughly the history of the adop tion of the constitution, the various articles that entered into the making of the organic law of the land and which proved a real treat in giving a clear outline or the constitution I its workings. Miss Robertson also gave a number cf questions which the ladies were called upon to answer covering the constitutional history. At the close of the evening dainty refreshments were served and in which Mrs. Capwell was assisted in I serving by Mrs. Fred Lug?ch. Mrs. Bert Coleman. Mrs. C. C. Cotner.
