Famous Beauty to be Bridesmaid
 At the Morris-Martin Wedding

Among the bridesmaids in the wedding party attendant upon the marriage of Miss Martin and Dr. Morris will be Miss Maude Woods, of Charlottesville, Va, whose re- markable beauty is creating such a sensa- tion among New York artists. She is @ niece of pr. Morris and will visit Birming- ham early in January.
 The New York World of last Sunday con- tained a group of pictures of this beautiful girl and expressions from many of the well known artists of the day in regard to her type of beauty. Among the criticisms were the following;
 A. B. Wenzell: "There Is a charm about the facei If I were to analyze 1t l feel sure I could see some flaws in 1t, but just to glance at it you are fascinated, possessed by the indescribable, indefnable thing that, for want of a better word, call 'charm." :" The head Is glorious, exquisite, perfect It is a face that bewitches you, a face that has more than beauty in 1t. A more charming picture I have never seen.''
 William M. Chase: "Yes, that is very, very pretty face; there can be no two opin- ions on that subject. I am inclined to be- Ieve that none of these pictures quite do her justice. There is little lack of chin in all of them, which do not believe would be noticeable in the face of the fair origi- nal. She has charming profile and an in- teresting, full face. She may justly be con- sidered an American beauty. No one could think of .disputing her claim to that title after having once looked at her. It is a paintable face--one that would please an artist"

 ''Nith such a president,2 said Mrs. Mill ner, my duties will be light. I wish only to say that the organization of the Wo- mans club is consummation of my hopes for many years'

 Miss Lucy Haygood, the corresponding secretary, and Mrs. Graham, the auditor, spoke briefly assuring the ladies of their desire to further the interests of the club in every way. Mrs. Graham said that she hoped it could be said of the Woman's club, as the governor of Texas had said: I've have spread"
 The directors of the various departments of the Woman's club were then called upon to speak, and talked interestingly of the work to be taken up by each department.
 Mrs French presented the club with handsome book, "Women of the Century" as a nucleus for the library

The wedding will not only be of great interest to society here, but to the exclusive circles of fashionable society in other southern cities While the bride-elect is one of the youngest belles in society her social career has been a brilliant one.

She was educated at Mrs. Cary's school in Baltimore, and after visit abroad she was formally presented to so- ciety At the Mardi Gras festivities last season she was selected as queen, and at the fashionable places last summer she was among the notable and brilliant belles of the season.
