CONSTITUTION DAY
While Constitution Day, Sep-
tember 17, is not a legal holiday
it is observed with appropriate
exercises in many schools, and
various patriotic societies em-
ploy the occasion to renew ac-
quaintance1 with the provisions
of our nation's organic law.
The Constution of the United
States was adopted on Septem-
ber 17, 1787, by the convention
to gather. Some coining from Ben
Franklin, Greenville, Paris and f:om
in and around Cooper. V’e all visited
one with another until about 11:30,
the men said that it was time to
open the baskets. The women got
busy and covered the long table pre-
pa1 ed for the occasion with every-
thing good to eat. Bob and Jeff, who
were the hosts, had prepared gallons
of iced tea and lemonade which was
thoroughly cnoyed by tv ryone.
After we had eaten all we could,
we were called to order, and after
K. II. tBob) Foster was called on
for a speech, but he said he hud some-
thing better for us, and brought
around the Klondike Quartet, compos-
ted of Chas. Bledsoe, C. V. and H. D.
^ I Stephenson and A. V. Robnett, who
sang the following numbers: “When,
Mother Prayed,” “Back Where the
Old Home Stands,” “You Can't Make
a Monkey Out of Me,” “Don’t Y’ou
Love Your Daddy Too,” "Jesus lhtid
it All.”
We all enjoyed their singing very
much and certainly appreciated their
kindness in coming over to give us
this pleasure, but we failed to get a
speech out of Bob.
Tillie Foster, daughter of J. D.
Foster, gave the following readings:
"What I Call Living, “The Paying
Tiller.” Everyone enjoyed Tillie’s
readings. Her readings are given in
her sweet natural way. Tillie has
just completed a course in expression
and received her diploma from the
Atlanta School of Expression.
We then sang “God Be With You
Till We Meet Again.” led by the Klon-
dike Quartet.
After having discussed the place
of meeting for next year, it was
agreed that we would meet the first
Sunday in September at the old
Methodist tabernacle at Ben Franklin
where we all love o go.
We were dismissd by Bro. Dabney.

This little jewel was a boy,
Andrew Henson by name.
He was a shinging light in their home,
And for God will be the same.
Little Andrew was a darling,
Full of life and fun,
Giving ;cy to Mother and Dad
From early morn ’til set of sun.
He was so happy here,
Being so innocent and pure,
That no stranger in Heaven,
He will be, I’m sure.
Weep not loved ones,
This death ve can’t understand,
But some day in Heaven you’ll meet
him,
Where you can forever hold his hand.
