The Pulnam-LeaveR Wedding.

The marriage of Miss Vera Puliam to MT. Landrum Pinson Leaven of Jackson, Miss, in the Woodawn Baptist church last night at o'clock was one of the most notable events of the summer. Pre- cedng the ceremony there was a short musical programme by Mrs William Grant, organst, and Miss Lena Jackson solost.
 The party marched in to the strains of Wagner's wedding march from "Lohen- grin" The ushers were Mir. John Hine, Dr. George Curry Ellis, MT. James w. Hughes Jr., and MT. John S. Kennedy. Following them came the little flower girl, Miss Esther Louise Kennedy, who was a fairy-lilSe little figure in dainty frock of white organdle with a garland of pink carnations over her shoulder. In the opposite aisle came Master Ullin Leavell, the ring bearer, in a little Lord Fauntleroy suit of white.
 Then came Miss Cornelia Sheldon, the maid of honor, who was unusually hand some in a white chiffon gown trimmed with medallions of Irish point lace. Next came the bride, graceful and lovely, on the arm of her uncle, Mir. w. lf. Berry Her wedding gown was of silk mousselin made with elaborate sherring and gar nished with chantilly lace. Her veil of tulle was caught with large pearl pin most gracefully arranged.
 At the altar they were met by the groom and the best man, MT. James B. Iseavell The ceremony was very im- pressive and pronounced by the Rev. w. M. Blackwelder, D. D. At the conclu- sion of the ceremony Mendelssohn's we'd ding march was played while the party marched cut.
 Following the ceremony there was an informal reception at the home of MT and Mrs. w. F. Berry. The gifts were very beautiful, some having come from a great distance
 Mir. and Mrs. Leavell have gone for stay of several weeks at Mont Eagle Tenn, and will go from there to their future home in Jackson, Miss
 The bride is young woman of great personal charm and unusual intellectual ity. and is a special favorite with those NnO nave the privilege ana pleaSuIeI or her friendship. With the exception of three years spent in study at Blue Noun tain college. Mississippi, she grew to beautiful womanhood in Birmingham. She has travelled extensively in this coun- try, and her personality combines the truest Christian character with the rarest refinement and culture.
 Mir. Leayell is graduate of the Uni versity of Mississippi and during his visits to Birmingham has won many firm friends by his pleasing address, sterling character and brilliant mind. His educa- ton has been supplemented with extended tours here and abroad.
 He resigned last year his position as teacher in the Washington Military insti- ute near Natchez, Miss, to accept secretaryship in the Southern Baptist Sunday school board, his headquarters being at Jackson, Miss.

Pretty White Costume.

One of the nek skirt models in white linen has the pointed yoke top made of all over Irish embroidery. Below this yoke are graduated box plaits with em- broidered panels between each two. Ac- companying this skirt are a white net blouse lined with white silk null and a bolero of embroidered linen finished with a narrow edge of Irish guipure. The open sleeves of this jacket end at the elbow. showing the full. dropping sleeves of the ret blouse below.
 Here is a charming story about Patti and Nordica. Both the great singers were abroad. and they met by chance. What long time it is since we met" said Patti. Ages" replied Mme.

to control themselves can alwsys control others?"
 And that you can't control others un- less you can control yourself, and all that rigmarole?" said the critical one, promptly No. my dear, l don't believe any of it. Because we all know 1t isn't true It is one of the stock remarks used to give an improving tone to almost any story for the young We have all seen selfish, inconsiderate, bad-tempered peo- pie who never take the trouble to restrain their irritability, or not to let their angry passions rise, whom everybody flies to obey. Fear Is a strong motive and acts very promptly And then there are pa- tient, gentle. sweet-natured people who never lose their tempers, who can con trol themselves in other ways, do work they detest and obey doctors orders as to diet, and yet whom nobody ever dreams of obeying. Of course there are people who can control themselves and others, too but so far as l can see the two powers have no connection. VIII comes in two forms, static and dynamic self-controlled people have static will; those who can govern others, dynamic. Excuse me for pressing; somebody has been distressing you, telling you that your small boy will be ruined unless you teach him implicit, instant obedience"
 Yes" said the young mother while tears sprang into her eyes, "and I cannot do it. When John speaks to him he obeys instantly, but he will not for me"
 But don't you sec my dear he is Johns son, and a natural born boss and leader. like his father. It is set in the very laws of nature that you cannot com pei obdience from him, but yon can lead him. by his love for you, by his conscience. by his honor. l am not at all sure that the boy is not better trained to resist the temptations that will beset him as he grows older, who has been taught to con- trol himself and do right for rights sake, than the boy who has always been con trolled and has done right because he was not allowed to do otherwise. Self-control can be taught and can be acquired, but the power to control others is an inborn gift, as much so as musical genius. Don't you worry about little Johnny, my dear-just love him with all your heart, and always hold up before him high ideals of truth and honor and unselfishness, and he'll come out all right He may not be such quiet and model child as MT. Repressers sammy, but you can trust him farther out of your sight"
