GUY.HOLMES WEDDING
Popular Young Dallas Couple Are
Made Husband and Wife.

Mr.. Bert M. Guy and Miss Mabel
May Holmes were welded at the home
OF the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
A. Fl. Holmes, at noon, Wednesday,
September 4.
Promptly at the hour of noon, the
wedding party entered the parlor to
the strains of Morrison's beautiful
composition, Meditation" played by
the brides sister, Miss Edna Holmes.
Taking their position under the floral
bell, the young couple stood while the
Rev. A. @. Brackenbury pronounced
the words that made them man and
wife, using the solemn ceremony of
the ring.
The bride was prettily gowned in
cream landsdown and carried a
boquet of Bride roses. Miss Jessie
Karr, Of Clear Lake, Iowa, acted as
bridesmaid, and G. D. Chorpening, a
close friend of the groom, was best
man. The room was decorated with
sweet peas, the central piece being a
large wedding bell composed of those
flowers. When the ceremony was
completed, the guests filed into the
dining room to partake of the rich
wedding repast that awaited them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Guy left on the after
noon train for trip to Portland and
Seaside. They will be at home after
September 25 in their cottage on the
corner of Lyle and Maple streets.
Mrs. Guy is we'll known in the social
circles of Dallas, and counts many
friends among the people of our town.
Mr. Guy is a partner in The firm of
Guy Bros. & Dalton, and is univer-
sally recognized as a young man Of
rising business ability.

B. BROWER NOT DEAD
While Preparing Body for Burial
Signs of Life Are Discovered.

M. B. Grant informs the OBSERVER
that the telegram received by Mrs.
Grant informing her of the death Of
her father, B. Brewer, of McMinn-
vile, was too hastily sent. The old
gentleman had been near deaths
door for several days and on Tuesday
night he apparently passed into his
last sleep. A few hours later, while
the body was being prepared for bur-
ial, unmistakable signs of life were
noticed, greatly TO the astonishment
Of the relatives and friends, who had
believed him dead. He was still alive
yesterday afternoon, but was uncon-
scious, and no hopes are entertained
of his ultimate recovery.

DEBATE SUNDAY ON THE
MISSION OF CHURCHES

A live question will be debated at
the Y. NJ. G. A. Sunday afternoon at
the men IS meeting. The question is
whether the churches should do So
cial and economic work, or confne
their efforts to religious instruction and
inspiration. There are good authorities
on both sides. The great institutional
churches of some of our American
cities are the result of the belief that
the churches have more than religious
mission. On the other hand many min
listers of repute stand for the strictly
religious end of their calling. It is
not the question of whether these
things should be done, but should in
dividual churches undertake them.
The two leaders, Mr.. Eli Snyder and
Mr.. G. T. Brissel, are men of experience
in debate and should make things in
teresting. After they have said their
say, the audience will have a chance
at the question.

The Castle Home expenses for Janu-
airy were $364.65 and the treasurer
says that there is nothing left to meet
expenses of the present month. An
officer of the society said:
eve are at once reminded that there
is always chance for benevolent peo-
pie to exercise their ruling passion and
surely the homeless children of our
community will find arm-hearted
friends. We feel sure it will only be
necessary to give these facts to this

the means to support this very worthy
