CENTRALIA, NO., Oct. 1.-The
C~entralia Public Schools have en-
tered upon a new era. Important
changes have been made, and it 10
hoped the highest standard will be
kept up. The teachers of the schools
should receive all the assistance
and encouragement possible. A
great source of encouragementis the
visiting of parents to the schools.
1t encourages the teachers by show
ing that some one is interested in
this work, and it acts as an incen-
tive to the scholar to try and have
perfect lessons when a visitor is
present. 1t would be well if pa
rents gave more thought to this
subject than is now done.
The meeting at the Christian
Church closed last Friday night
with A additions to the church.
Many Of those who were added to

WILSON-BRYAN.
The Marriage of Miss Margaret
Bryan and MIR. Edwin s. Will
son at the Christian
Church.

An unusually pretty wedding
took place at the Christian Church
Tuesday at 9 p. IN. when Miss
Margaret Bryan and Mr.. Edwin S.
Wilson, both of this city, were
united in marriage. The church
was filled with a magnificent gath
ering of friends, and under the
mellow, incandescent glow of the
electric lights, the beautifully dec
Grated auditorium, with its splen-
did audience, presented a scene of
enchantment. At 8 o'clock the
bridal party came in, walking to
the altar by the beautiful Lohen-
grin wedding march, and by the
impressive Episcopalian form of
ceremony, with ring, the marriage
was consummated. The answers
were made in clear, audible voices.
Elder J. H. Bryan, brother of the
bride, performed the ceremony
in a manner that would be
creditable to a minister of long
years experience.
Miss Ida Brooks, of Kansas
City, and Miss Ecu Lou O'Neil, of
Covington, Kentucky, were the at
PENDANTS, and Miss Polly Bryan was
the maid ofhonor.
The groom was dressed in con-
ventional black, while the bride
wore a most becoming and beauti-
full gown of faille Franchise, made
with a long princess train, whose
fullness swept out in rich folds
from the slender waist, leaving all
ornamentation to the front of the
skirt, which was draped with tulle
embroidered in crystals. The
pointed bodice was cut square in
the corsage with a tucker of crystal
tulle finished with a high dog COL
lar. The bridal vail of tulle was
fastened with pearl pins. Bouquet
of bride, roses. The bridesmaids
Wore simple gowns of white silk
with draperies of dotted tulle.
Bouquets of Mareschal Neil and
LaFrance roses.
The ushers were: Messrs. Luke
Morris, Percy Hord, Frank Spence
and Morris Arnold.
The church was handsomely
decorated with flowers, the work
ofthe Harvesters Society, of which
the bride was a member. The
young ladies of the Harvesters are
to be complimented, for the audi
forum was a triumph of decorative
art.
The groom is the we'll known
representative of the Alton and
Wabash railways in this city and
is one of the most popular society
young men of the city. The bride
is a lovable and accomplished
young lady; and both bride and
groom are to be congratulated on
their choice of partners for life.
The list of presents is long and
the articles named thereon are of
unusual beauty and value.
THE RECEPTION.
Immediately after the ceremony,
the bridal party, with relatives and
a few immediate friends, repaired
to the home of the groom's parents
on East Monroe street, where a
most enjoyable reception vas held
until II o'clock. An elegant sup
per was served at II O'Clock ard at
II the guests departed, showering
on Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson their
heartiest blessings and good wishes.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson left on the
Alton at l o'clock for Chicago.
From that city they will go to
Kentucky for a few days. They
will reside at the home of DR.. AL
lison, on North Jefferson street,
upon their return.
