AUGUST WEDDING BELLS.
The McKnight-Francis Nuptials Yesterday tire
First of Several Fall Weddings.

The first, of a number of pleasantly
anticipated fall weddings, was solemn
lied last evening at six o'clock, when
Miss Mabel Louise Mcknight and Mr..
Harry L. Francis, were united in mar
riage in the presence of their near rela-
tives and a few intimate friends at the
Mcknight home on Fifth street. In
honor of the nuptials the rooms we're
tastily decorated with a beautiful ar
rangement of autumnal flowers and foil
age. The ceremony was performed in
the parlor, which was adorned for the
occasion with trailing sprays of Virginia
creeper. The bay window, in which the
officiating minister, Rev. F. j. Hubbard
of the Presbyterian church and the con.
tracing parties stood, was a verltable
green bower relieved by punches of
bridal roses. The bride wore a dainty
dress of cream and serge, the waist be-
ing composed of lace over cream satin
and the serge skirt was trimmed with
panels of lace to match the waist. She
carried a lovely bouquet of bridal roses.
Mrs. Mcknight, the mother of the bride
was gowned in tan silk, while the BRIDES
sister, Miss Ethel Mcknight, wore white
lace q pale blue silk. Following the
ceremony a wedding supper was served
in the dining room, where the
brlde's table was artistically arranged in
a color scheme of green, pink and white.
Smilax and bride roses gave a dainty
finish to the handsome brides cake that
adorned the center of the table. The
guests present were Rev. Mr.. and Mrs.
Hubbard, Mr. M. L. Sullivan, the bust
ness partner of the brides father, the
late Nh. VIM. Mcknight, Mrs. Sullivan,
Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. S. Loynes, cousins OF
of the groom and Mr.. JOS. Halloran.
Quite an animated scene was witnessed
in the evening when a large number of
the friends of the family came in infor-
mally to offer their congratulations and
good wishes. he high esteem in which
the young couple are held was evidenced
by the many valuable and beautiful
gifts received. The bride is the eldest
daughter of Mrs. Mcknight and has
a claim on the friendship and acquaint-
nee of Langdon's pioneer residents
since the earliest years of her girlhood.
The groom, Mr.. Harry Francis, is quite
we'll known and generally respected by
Langdon people, having for several
years been connected with the Langdon
Pharmacy of N. q. McGruer.

scott's Novels In Our Era.

A recent writer in the London Times
asserts that the breadth Of human SYM
pathy in SCOTS romances more than
redeems any faults which may be laid
against him by critics who insist upon
modern standards. The human mind
has grown since Scott wrote, and the
chivalry which forms the keynote in
the motive of his characters is dead.
People no longer believe that such per-
sonages as he put upon the stage ever
did or yer could exist. Yet this writer
holds that Scott was the one nan with
the breath of the Shakespearean air
about him. No other, he says, "has
shown as much as Scott of Shake
speare's combination Of high and true
romance with a steady consciousness
Of the prosaic side of life, It's common
sense and common business, it's rea-
sonableness, it's hard bottom of fact.
His business is not with some side
study of disease or eccentricity or
crime. 1t is with the whole, in which
there are seen to be exceptions"
Again he speaks of the Homeric large
ness in Scott, the largeness of life
itself. To quote further:
Other men and women have gifts that
he has not, but no one combines so many
as he. He has. for instance, the poetry
which is not in Dickens. the swift energy
which IS not in Thackeray. the largeness
both Of matter and manner which is not
In Jan Austen, the lightness of touch
which is not in Charlotte Bronte. the
fresh air and motion Of life which are not
in Balzac. the tenderness which is not in
Dumas, the limpid ease which is not In
George Eliot, the artlessness which is
not in Stevenson. the quietness and sim
plicity which are not in Mr.. Meredith.
With whom else shall we compare him
He is not the %cleverest or the wittiest or
the profoundest of n%ovelists, but none is
80 sure of immortality, for there flows
in him the clear and streamlike suavity
of life itself, and that is the one thing
whose pleasure never fails as the genera
lions and centuries go by.

The wealthy owner of an estate at
Allaire. France, having proved that the
death of numerous apple trees was the
result of an affection of the rootlets,
rendering them unable to draw from
the ground the elements necessary for
the life of the tree, conceived the idea
of artificial nutrition by injecting di-
rectly into the trunk a liquid that
might replace the sap. The results OBJ
tanned were very satisfactory and led
the author to make the same expert

The "Cradle Of the Republic."

l - t. VA OAS ASSPuOAASs
An incident, really trivial in itself,
has from it's romantic nature become
connected with the early history of
jamestown in a way that diverts at
%tention from those important charac-
teristics that reveal the influence of
jamestown on the development of the
United States. Everybody has heard
of Captain John Smith and the Poca-
hontas episode, while it Is not at all
generally known that representative
institutions had their start In the west
ern hemisphere at Jamestown. That
Is a solid historical fact, while the
Pocahontas episode is not so we'll au-
thenticated as to put it beyond ques-
ton.
The founding of jamestown took
place in 1907. In 1919 the first session
Of the Virginia house of burgesses was
held, containing representatives from
eleven plantations. The pilgrim IA
theirs landed in Massachusetts in 1920,
and it was not until 1880 that the first
representative assembly met in Mas
sachusetts. The influence of Virginia
constitutionalism has been strongly
marked in the history Of this country,
and it is a matter Of record that the
movement that eliminated in the adop-
ton of the constitution Of the United
States originated in conferences be-
tween Virginia and Maryland as to
jurisdiction over waters first mapped
by Captain John Smith, which confer
ences impressed the necessity of fed
eral jurisdiction over interstate COM
merce. When history traces back the
sequence of development in u IA
tional institutions the line goes back
| without q break to the settlement at
Jamestown that we are now commem-
Grating.
