Mrs. E. W. Jermark and M.s.
L. V. Watkins, gave the program
for the last meeting of the Wed

Mrs. Jermark reviewed "The
King Ranch," by Tom Lea. The
story is about an 11-year-old boy,
Richard King, who stowed away
on a steamship outbound from
New York City for Mobile Bay,
New Orleans. The boy made a
good impression on the captain.
He was allowed to remain on
board, and liking the sea-faring
life, eventually became a river
captain at 23 years of age. Later
he was in the U.S. government
service which afforded the op
portunity to gradually buy up
available land that established
the fabulous King Ranch of
600,000 acres near Brownsville,
Tex., where he specialized in
fine horses and cattle.
Mrs. Watkins reviewed "No
Greener Pastures" by Stanley
High. The author tells of a boy
born in Missouri in 1864 of Ne
gro parents who was taken into
the home of a white planter,
Moses Carver, and given the
name George Washington Car
ver. There was only one book in
the Carver home, Webster's
Speller, which the boy memor
ized. He walked ten miles to the
Negro grade school in Neosho,
Mo., and later graduated at the
top of his class at Iowa State col
lege. A brilliant botanist and
chemurgist, Dr. Carver was
showered with honors. Thomas
Edison invited him to join his
staff at S50.000 a year. Henry
Ford gave him a laboratory for
World War I food research and
he was awarded the Theodore
Roosevelt medal in 1939 as "a
liberator to men of the white
race as well as the black." In
his first ill-equipped laboratory
he developed more than 300
new uses for peanuts, sweet po
tatoes and other Southern pro
