COUNCIL MAY CLOSE CONTRACT
IF Committee on PiledriYer Reports
FavorablY.

The City Council meets tomorrow
night, and under the head of unfinish-
ed business will again discuss the pur-
chase of piledriver. AS an interested
public has already been informed, the
Council wants a piledriyer, and that
badly. The face of the returns does
not indicate what the solons are going
to do with piledriVer, and the rumor
that it will be used ia bridging over
financial problems is erroneous. It
might be used in driving piling for the
Pantone light, but this is not in need
of repairs and IS already on a solid
foundation. But Council yearns yearn-
inglY for a piledriver. and will buy
one. The arrival of the gigantic ma
chine will be the occasion for public
celebration and barbecue, upon which
occasion the piledriver will be put in
motion that the wondering natives here
may fully appreciate the treasure they
possess. We may differ as to politics,
marriage, corn cures and local option,
but the people of Americas, as one
man, will applaud the purchase of
double rotary, back action, three-ply
and Atwood piledrIver.

Three pretty AmerIcus girls attending
Lucy Cobb College took part in a re-
cent mock marriage which was de-
scribed by the Athens Banner as very
pretty and enjoyable occasion. The
beautiful young ''bride" was Miss
Stella MCGEE, of Americas, while the
role of "bridegroom" was assumed by
Miss Fannie Meldrim, of Savannah.
Miss MCGEE was an ideal bride in her
dainty white gown and real lace veil.
She carried bride roses and was pic
ture of superlative beauty aud lovli-
ness Miss Meldrim wore black tail
or made gown, with white vest, while
her hair was pompadoured and pow
dered. Among the bridesmaids was
Miss Marie Lamar, of this city. while
Miss Elizabeth Harold played the
role of father" to the bride and gave
her away with becoming gravity and
the well-feigned regret assumed by
real fathers upon such occasions.
Miss McWhorter made an imposing
''priest" in long white robe and black
surplice. There were dozens of brides
maids, "groomsmen" flower girls and
the other accessories of a swell we'd
ding, including the wedding march.
The floral decorations were very elab
crate and beautiful. The marriage"
took place in the Seney- Stovall Chapel
and was witnessed by the entire stud
emit body of Lucy Cobb College.
