a gold • headed cane, which
was, presented to her grand-
father Fleming on his fiftieth
wedding anniversary and a
lovely old inkwell and cover
which was found in an old
handmade desk, made by an
early Polk County cabinet
maker, Tobe Pounds, known
to be at least 75 years old.
Mrs. Hortie Drew brought two
button hooks, one ivory hand-
led, one the kind given at
stores with the purchase of
a pair of “button - up” shoes.
Miss Rowena Hinson
brought a churn, complete
with fid and dasher and sev-
eral handwrought C quilt
clamps (used for clamping the
quilting frames). Mrs. Carl
Parrish brought an unusual
type of old razor “strop” and
some early handmade lace.
One of the costumes, that of
Ben Collins' grandmother, is
on display. It was discovered
that ladies in the last century
laced themselves so tightly
the dress forms of the modern
age are not nearly small
enough, so the costume Mrs.
Leggett brought is not yet in
the costume case.
Reports were made on re-
cent legislation empowering
county courts to give finan-
cial aid to preservation of, and
erection of historical markers,
as well as to the acquiring
of exhibits.
If you can give a day or a
half day to the Museum some
Tuesday or Thursday, please
call Miss Ruth Peebles. The
Committee is grateful to Mrs.
Johnny Davis for serving
day morning.
Have you early flatware,
tableware, napkin holders,
knife holders, walking canes,
cast - iron toys, or early dolls
you will give or loan to add
to the exhibits?
