CHRISTMAS GREETING.

Above all the Christmas must be
merry. 1t has been merry since it
first began, and a Christmas wish
without the Introductory word 20
that effect would be the Christmas
pudding without its plums. Christ
mas is for the boys and girls, and
% that day we older people shed
our years and become as children are.
No wrinkles now. No business
cares. No thought of anything that
dossn' t belong to christmas. A round
face, with dimples at the cheek and
chin; pair of happy eyes that look
if there had never been a tear in
them; a roar Of gratified expectata-
ton, with some intimate notes
bespeaking gentler happiness these
things from attic to ground floor,
and these from dawn to darkness.

A Brilliant Marriage at the Presbyte.
rian Church.

s
A large crowd filed the Presbyterian
church last Monday afternoon at five
o'clock, 20 witness the marriage of two Of
Marietta's most popular young people
The contracting parties were Mr.. Herbert
Clifton Dobbs and Miss Anna Won Schels
Hair.
An arch of evergreens spawned the space
in front Of TIE pulpit, lesuspended from
the centre OF the arch was large marriage
beS of white chrysanthemums and ever-
green's, with mistletoe clapper. Potted
flowers made fragrant the air, while the
mellow light of the lamps gave attractive
beauty to the scene When the attendants
took their places on either side of the arch
and the bridal couple stood beneath the
marriage bell, with the brides two sisters,
and their attendants, on either side, and
the minister Of God facing the contracting
parties the tableau presented was one of
striking beauty. AS the sweet music floats
ed out from the grand organ there was a
hush of murmuring voices, and all eyes
were turned upon the beautiful bride and
handsome groom The bride wore an
elegant white silk gown, en- train, illusion
veil, with smilax trailing from head to
train, while in her left hand she held
bouquet Of bride roses and maiden hair
fern. She was the very impersonation of
loveliness, her own perfect beauty adding
attractiveness, making picture es pretty
as the imagination can conceive The
gentlemanly groom was dressed in conven-
tional black, and suffered nothing in con-
trast. 1t was the general expression that
no handsomer couple ever stood in that
sacred place to be united in Hymen's
bonds.
Rev. H. X. Walker, in language choice
and beautiful, performed the ceremony, in
an impressive manner
The attendants were B o. Campbell, Of
Atlanta, with Miss May BELL Glover Of
Marietta; r. W. Boone, with Miss Jessie
Montgomery, of Marietta; G. c. johnson,

The prosperity of the church of God is
the basis of all other prosperity. Even as
a matter ofpolicy-if one will look at it
from so low plane-as matter of mere
business-it pays to invest in practical
godlines. Take out our, churches, close up
our Sunday Schools, close up our prayer
meetings, and how long would it be before
our streets would be solitary and lonely,
the home of weeds and grass?

We are led to believe that our Presby-

strength and usefulness, through the in

munity AS we'll as upon the flock of God

The fact that so large part of the popu-
lation of New England is now Of foreign
birth. and the still more notable fact that
this section of the population is propaga-
ting at a more rapid rate than the native,
suggest a number of interesting thoughts
bearing on the effect which they VIII prob
ably have upon the future character of the
New England people rs a whole. There
has long been a Opposition ON the part of
those Of the New England writers, who be-
long distinctivcly 10 the ancient stock, 20
lament the decline in those Puritan inilU-
cnces. which have given New England the
powerful position which il has occupied for
80 many generations in the general system
Of the American Commonwealth. These
influence. are now rapidly on the wane, but
this is probably due tomore than one cause.
II lis due. in the first place, 90 the fact that
Ne.s England is now brought into much
more intimate contact with the rest OF the
Union than formerly. There are forces al
work throughout the Republic that are
tending 10 assimilatc the people OF all the
states 20 the same feelings, sentiments and
customs. These forces aie as actively at
work In New England as elsewhere.
In the second place, the modern spirit is
hostile to Puriianisin, and 1t grows more
and more 80 with the accumulation Of the
worlds wealth Nowhere has wealth exer-
cised its weakening influence Ina this respect
more deeply than In New England, which
to-day Is radically opposed in its STYLE Of
life TO what prevailed 1fiy or sixty years
ago.
The decline Ia the Puritan spirit Of New
England Is beyond doubt principally due TO
The influx Of the foreign population. which
has brought with IL different social princi-
plies and moral rules Of life.
As compared with New England, Virgin
ia has undergone little alteration ia The char,
aeter Of its population, and even in IT, social
spirit. It's people are almost as true 20 the
ancient English strain to-day as they were

The sight of Carnegie inspires the writer
with the highest poetic emotions. Tie looks

is concerned. There it now lies On tho
emerald banks of the "silyery Roanoke

the poet. was "spuu from Aurora's hiu-l-

shadows "now dance only athwar fields oi

requiem of the wind "a, 10 blows acros. the

realist "pining for pastural SCENES" shall
find i'm the future will Dee the parks of Car

exclaims in "a burst of enthusiasm
