“Miss B a r r y m ore writes
from her heart of her life, her
career, her friends and her
family,” Mrs. Thomas Johnston
said in a review of Ethel Barry-
more’s autobiography "M e m -
ories” before the Waverly Club
Friday afternoon.
Mrs. Johnston brought to the
attention of the club members
that Sulphur Springs is fortu-
nate to have a first edition—
the 52nd copy of Miss Barry-
more’s book in the local library,
and, that further it is auto-
graphed by Miss Barrymore.
She described the childhood
of Miss Barrymore and her
brothers, pointing out the pos-
sible influence it had on their
adult lives.
As Mrs. Johnston followed
the fascinating theatrical ca-
reer of Miss Barrymore
from America to England and
back, the audience was caught
up in the excitement and glam-
our that touched the life of
this well known and beloved
actress.
She closed her talk with a
quotation by Miss Barrymore
on the occasion of her 40th
anniversary in the theatre: “If
my years are to be lived up
and counted off, I can think of
no pleasanter way for it to hap-
pen. If I have little conscious-
ness of the burden of the
years, it is because so many,
known and unknown to me,
have conspired to make those
years light.”
Mrs. Johnston said that Miss
Barrymore had certainly done
that for others.
Mrs. W. A. Carothers pre-
sided at the meeting in the
absence of the president.
The Morning Arts Garden
Club met Thursday morning in
the community room of the Sul-
phur Springs State Bank.
Mrs. Wayne Melton, program
chairman, showed color movie
films to the club members and
guests.
The club was organized in
January 1953 and Mrs. Melton,
as official photographer, has
kept a record each year in pic-
ture slides and color films of
all flower shows and other ac-
tivities of the organization.
The first flower show was
held in May 1953 at “White
Oaks,” the country home of Dr.
and Mrs. Byrd Longino. Place-
ment teas were held in the
homes of Mmes. McGee Long,
Reuben Clapp, Clyde France,
Fane Lamer, Oran Jackson and
Byrd Longino. The “Parade of
Tables” at the Woman’s Club
Building in 1961, and the flow-
er show, “Banking with Flow-
ers” held at the Sulphur ' I 'L _
Springs State Bank in 1962 1. HC7IIC
completed the film showing.
Mrs. Marvin Myers, Jr., club
president, presided at the bus-
iness meeting following the pro-
gram, and resports were given
from the different committees.
Mrs. Longino displayed a
mass arr a n g e m e n t of Mary Kram> bearing an Easter theme,
Copeland and Golden Harvest was presented by the students
daffodils in a footed silver from Mrs. Harriet Casey’s

Iced drinks and coffee were
served in the social hour.

somehow they may be made
