Eight members from the Teague
Business and Professional Wo-
men’s Club attended the ninth
annual. conference of District 8,
held in Tyler oh Saturday and
Sundayi Oct 26 and 27. Head
quarters for the meeting were in
the Blackstone Hotel.
The towns represented were
Athens, Corsicana, Gilmer, Hen-
derson, Kilgore, Longview, Luf-
kin, Marshall, Mexia, Mt. Pleas
ant, Rusk, Palestine, Sulphur
Springs; Teague and the hoBtess
city.
The highlight of the meeting
was the banquet held in the ball-
room of the Blackstone on Satur-
day evening.
The decoration committee had
used a lavish array of red roses,
for whfdT’ Tyler is famous, in
beautifying the ballroom, simulat-
ed roses and southern smilax
gracing the full length of the
tables.
Miss Grace Fitzgerald, promi-
nent Dallas attorney, national
membership cchairman of B. A P.
W. Clubs, presented the speaker
of the evening, Judge Camille
Kelly of Memphis, Tenn
Judge Kelly is a widely renown
and popular speaker. She presides
over the Memphis juvenile court
a* position she has held for twen-
ty years.
The subject of Judge Kelly’s
address was “The Old Ideal
Versus the New Idea.” In present
ing her subject she brough out
many interesting comparisons with
the worlds of yesterday and today.
“In attending district, Btate and
national conventions, we come in
contact with women who are lead-
ers of state, civic and community
activities,” Judge Kelly said
Women have gone forward rapidly
in the past few years and are
now working shoulder to shoulder
with the men of today, Mrs. Kelly
stated further. “Thgre are two
conflicting persons in each of us.
The good and the bad,” Judge
Kelly stated, “and it should be
our constant endeavor to cultivate
the good, particularly in the youth
of our nation.”
Women,‘while progressive, are
still copyists. They occupy the
positions today that men have
held for years. Still, through en-
ergy and ability, they are adding
their improvements to the world.
It is the duty of the business
woman today to hold the ideals of
the nation high, for she is thrown
in constant contact with persons
from all walks of life and has in-
fluence, either good or bad, on
everyone she meets.
Our greatest need today is
enough character to keep up with
the Bpeed in which we live. We
have to think quickly, ahd good
character will help us to think
soundly, Judge Kelly remarked.
In closing her address Judge
Kelly pointed out that it is es-
sential that the children of today
be taught he significance and im-
portance of the ? “stars and
Btripes.” Instruct children now and
prevent war, crime and bloodshed
in the future.
Mrs. Kelly’s concluding remark
was “Let us, as thinking business
and professional women carry our
old ideals over into this new
world.”
After the banquet had been con-
cluded the visiting club women
were entertained with a theatre
{•party. -
The Sunday’s activities were
opened with u presidents’ break-
fast at the home of Mrs. Jewefl
Spinks, president of the Tylei
club. In the absence of the Teague
president, Mrs. Pearl Perry, Miss
Shelma Carlile represented the
local club.
Beginning at 8:46 a business
meeting was held and reports were
made from the various clubs, withe
Mrs. Mayme Day speaking' for
Teague.
Adjournment was made so that
the delegates might attend morn-
ing church services, and the meet-
ing was re-opened at 1 o’clock
with the Membership Luncueon.
At that time Miss Grace Fitz-
gerald addressed the gathering on
“Membership In Federation,”
bringing many advantages of be-
longing to a federated organiza-
tion. Miaa Hill pointed out that
the small towns were better or-
ganised with regard to Business
and Professional Women’s work
than were the cities. "The best
organised clubs are found in
with population under 25,-
000,” Miss Hill stated
