Meeting of League
For Plank Chapel
(Reported to Daily Dispatch.)
On last Friday night at Miss Annie
I-Aiurie Rowland’s the Epworth Lea
guers of Plank Chapel celebrated
George Washington’s birthday with a
party, which was the culmination of
a. membership drive and atw hich the
losing side entertained the winners
and the new members most delight
fully.
On arrival. Miss Rowland pinned a
small paper hatchet on the hack of
each guest, red ones on the boys and
•due ones on the girls, each bearing
a number and when the leader called
out "Get your partners” there was
much excitement and rushing around
to find the corresponding number.
Then the games, contests, etc., were
entered into in the following order,
with Mrs. U. B. Alexander, the Lea
gue Counselor, directing: First she
told them she wanted them to learn
to laugh, for there would ibe much to
laugh about, but the name of this
little rehearsal was “Tee Hee.”
The beginner touched the one lo
her left under the chin and while
scowling heavily said “tee hee” he,
in turn, touched the next 011 c in like
manner and said “tec hee, hee,” each
one on to the end adding another
hee, but the tee hees, came involun
tarily before they were nearly around.
Then each one “described his part
ner,’’ using an adjective or making a
sentence out of words begining with
the letters in their given names. It
was almost impossible to imagine the
• udicrous figures each one appeared
o he at the bands of their partners.
, Hie “Progressive Fortunes” were
ead next, each one's fortune, puffing
him or her in all kinds of impossible,
idiculous situations. “Pinning hat
chets to the cherry tree" proved each
contestants’ accuracy in judging dtv
ance and position while blind-folded
Vliss Natalie Smith was awarded the
wHc, a toy hatchet, for getting hers
learost the imaginary spot where
Teorge did the chopping—a line mu
•cross the tree designated the spot.
, the “Pillow Race” came next in oi
ler. All formed in two lines, facing
:a.ch other, with the same number
n each line. A pillow insjde the case
va.s given to Miss Agnes Harold and
•lie to Roger Mitchell who headed
he lines, every one having to take
he pillow out of the case and put it
ack, in relay fashion, the side first
etting the pillow to the last, one in
ne winning out, those who were ae
uslomed to such exercises being able
o "handle the situation” most sue
essfully. “Finding the hidden rher
ies” also called for quick action. Hie
rizc going to Miss Doris Hight for
hiding the largest number. The story
f "Washington crossing the Dela
ware” was read by Mrs. T. C. Gill, the
ouns in the story having been dis
■ ibuted, each one taking the name
r a person, place or thing. As site
ead, each one whose nouns was
poken stood up, turned around twice
nd sat, down, but. when “Washington"
v as mentioned ail exchanged seats a-s
•uickly as possible. The counselor
hen informed the group that when
Vashington came info office, lie real
zed that many (burdens had come
'own upon his head and she wanted
hem to be patriotic enough to help
ear the burdens of the country this
itroducing the next stunt— “Burden
leavers,” apples were used foi the
urdens and were placed in a pie pan
o be borne on the head across the
00m and back as many times as pos
able or until Ihe goal had been reach
ed—twenty times being the highest
•lumtber allowed. Three contestants
cached the goal with their burdens,
these being Miss Jessie Fuller Hight.
Miss Evelyn Mitchell and E. C. Moss,
and received the apples for being Hie
most "level-headed.”
Washington being a truthful man.
all were advised to follow his exam
ple and teTI the “truth'* hut if they
would not fell the truth they had t 0
take the "consequences.”
The rooms were beautifully decorat
pd in the national colors, tad, white
and blue, crepe paper being used atui
red and blue hatchets placed in de
signs here and there on curtains, etc..
gave the finished, artistic touch.
Ice cream with cherries on it and
tea cakes in the shape of hatchets
were served to the thirty-two pres
ent, each one’s plate having oil it a
red or blue paper hatchet bearing
their name.
Assisting in serving were Miss Row
land's mother. (Mrs. B. L. Rowland.
| Mrs. Duke, of Epsom, Mrs. Alexander.
Miss Natalie Smith, Mrs. Gill and Miss
Mytrle Mitchell.
