Miss Lucille Connrardy entertain
ed the graduates of 1899 and 1900
in the spacious parlors of her home,
in Sunny Side, last Friday evening.
AS the beaming faces of the young
folks presented themselves the cor
dial hospitality of Miss Lucille made
all at home. There was something
more than mere pleasure displayed
on every face, for the attendant
of school life, intelligence, beamed
from every eye. They amused them
selves with games until tue hostess
called them to the daintiest refresh
ments ever served. Glass and school
fellowship are the most sacred and
binding ties ever formed. And the
links formed on the white hot anvil
of pride, in being able to see the
possibilities beyond, that night
will be lasting, and in years to come
they will look back with pleasure
to the event.

Jake Ray Again a Widow.

Jake Ray of Keytesville, who was
married to Mrs. Nettie Jackson of
near Pee Dee during the recent holi-
days, is again "a widow" his wife
having left him last Thursday.
This made Jake's fifth or sixth or
seventh or eighth matrimonial venture,
but he regards the situation philo-
sophicaIly, and breaks the news of his
latest shipwreck on the high seas of
welded life by saying: well, my last
wife has done left me-"
Some say that the breach in their
connublal felicity occurred because
Mrs. Ray called another mans name
IN her sleep.
Another report is to the effect that
Mrs. Ray insisted on taking a male
boarder, and that Jake at once "smelt
a MICE" and the green-eyed monster
took possession of him.
A third report is rife that Jake got
into rumpus with his stepson and
threatened to shoot him, and that this
was the cause of the conjugal fracture
between Mr.. and Mrs. Ray.
Jake, however, holds to the opinion
that she left him because somebody,
"who didn't have sense enough to
tend to their own business" told her
he hadn't got a divorce from his last
wife before this one, hence the
latest Mrs. Ray said: "She wouldn' T
live with any man who wasn't d.
vorced."
Although Jake's honeymoon has
been ruthlessly turned into a simeon he
vows that he intends to treat Mrs. Ray
right, and is going to send her the
COURIER.
No better plan could be adopted to
pour oil on the troubled waters, and
when she gets the COURIER reconcile
alton between Jake and his "last wife,
may confidently be expected to follow.
