Mr.. Verne F. Miles and Miss Ethel Mae
Rand were united in marriage at the resi-
deuce of the bride in this village on We'd
nesday, Nov. 10. Mr.. Miles is young
man of thrift and character, respected by
all. The bride is young lady much en-
deared to this community, a graduate
with honors from our academy, one asso-
ciated with the interests of the Methodist
church from childhood, being at present
a member of League, Sundayschool and
cnoir. The ceremony was pleasant home
affair, with only immediate relatives pre-
sent. The presents were valuable and use
ful and the many friends of the contract
ing parties wish them all the success in
life that seems to be prophecied by their
present prospects. Their residence in fu-
ure will be with parents of groom near
West Glover.
The lecture given by DR.. N. Dwight Hill
lis of Brooklyn at the opera hall last
Thursday evening WAS pronounced by
many TO be the best ever given here. 1t
was certainly one of the most thoughtful
and convincing that our people have ever
had the privilege CT listening to. No lee
| turer has given us more things to store
| away and consider in the future than did
DR.. Hills. He spoke very rapidly and at
some length. He discussed Ruskin and
his work and brought out many lessons
suggested by his life. The lecture was
very scholarly and was delivered in
pleasing manner. In making up the list
of speakers for the next course we believe
that the committee can do no thing more
pleasing to the patrons of the course than to
secure DR.. Hills as one of the speakers.
| The next entertainment of the course will
be lecture by Ebert Hubbard on January
9th. Subject, "The Roycrofters.
