The Durham-Battle Wedding.

The elegant home of Mr. and Mrs.
l.. C. Durham, on Third avenue, was
the scene of a cordial and elaborate
hospitality Wednesday morning, No
vember 4th. No more perfect day
ever dawned beneath the sunny skies
of Georgia. The occasion was a pref
ty home wedding, when many Of the
most prominent people of Dawson
met to witness the marriage of Mr..
Warren l.. Battle and Miss Jewel
Beatrice Durham. Miss Pearl A. Tur-
ner of Macon presided at the piano
and delighted the guests with her
sprightly Interpretation OF "Cupids
and Flowers" The chords of Men
delsshOn's wedding march announced
the suspicious moment. The bridal
party, led by Rev. n. B. Okelley,
pastor of the First Baptist church.
descended the broad stairway and
through an aisle of guests entered
the handsomely decorated parAOrs.
1t was a picture of innocent beauty,
of loves young dream, when the
bride, accompanied by her sister,
Miss Lynne Durham, as maid OF hon
or. was met at the altar by the
groom and his best man, Mr. FELTON,
l.. Clements. Love is always young,
love is always beautiful, love is i'm
mortal-God is love. The wedding
march dropped into the soft strains
of 20 Promise Me" as Rev. n. B.
IO'Kelley. in a beautiful and impress
i've ceremony, made the happy
couple one. The music ceased; every
head was bowed as the man of God
led the waiting people into the pres
ence of the Most High and plead for
Heavens best blessings upon the
newly formed union. The spirit OF
worship filled that moment of prayer
with a pulse divine and the same
Christ who was the guest Of honor
at the marriage in Cana of Galilee
thrilled the happy occasion with HIS
blessed presence.
The bride was becomingly goWned
in stylish coat suit of dark blue
with hat to match The brides bou-
ouet was of white carnations fit en-

line. Her flowers were pink carna-
tons.
Following the ceremony refresh
ments were served, consisting of a
salad course and ices. The refresh
ments were dainty and delicious.
The brides table was "a thing of
beauty and JOY forever. The deco
rations throughout the house were
beautiful and artistic. Palms and
ferns were banked here and there
and inset with vases of chrysanthe-
NUNS and roses of rare beauty. The
entire decoration scheme reflected ex-
cellent taste.
The number and value of the bri-
dial presents attest the popularity of
the young couple. A room in which
the presents were arranged was a
dream of beauty, and reflected the
delicate taste CT the donors. In ar
ranging the gifts there were two
placed together that suggested the
eternal fitness of things" On one of
the tables were bonds representing
several thousand dollars worth of
mining stock; lying upon these was
a modest, unpretending volume Of
the New Testament Scriptures. The
bonds represent the treasure of
earth, the little book represents the
treasures of Heaven. 1t teaches how
to use the things of the earth earthly.
lifts the mysterious veil and points
to things eternal.
The bride has been reared in Daw-
son, and her friends are numbered by
all who know her Jewel is a fine
christian character, and one of our
best loved Philatheas.
In that noble band of earnest
h-seekers-that band of young
women at work for young women
the girlish face and clear, truthful
ewes of Jewel Durham will always
be remembered. She carries into
her new sphere of life the esteem
and best wishes of every member OF
the class which she loves so well. AS
we shower congratulations upon our
Philathea bride we reverently re-
peat the class word 'Mizpah."
Mr.. Battle is a young travelling
man Of fine business tact and talent,
and we predict for him success in the
business world He is a man Of mag
netic personality, and is a noble
christian character.
The young couple, with other
members of the bridal party, were
entertained at a six o'clock dinner
Tuesday evening by Mr.. and Mrs.
e. r. Jordan Under the ridection
of Mrs. Jordan the occasion was
planned in perfect taste and carried
out in simple elegance.
Mr.. and Mrs Battle left on the

you, Brother Stoveall?"
I'm eighty odd"
"Gettin' along putty well. And now,
lookin' back over your life, what have
you enjoyed the most?"
well, it don't seem to me now that

But he could only rob you of mate

would have laid up somethin' he
couldn't rob you of, and you could
have set down by your fire at night
and dreamed over it without any fear.
You have known all along that they

is goin' to take care of the things you
have raked together?, Come to think
about it, 1 don't believe ever heard
you laugh right good"
Il haven't had anything to laugh
about" the old man replied
And nobody else that was always
afraid that he might be robbed while
he laughed. But you have been
robbed out of mighty few pennies
! ever since can remember you have
been able to go to sale and buy what
you wanted, and yet of all the men
know, Stoveall, your life has been the
biggest failure"
"Jucklin, i could buy and sell you
three times in day, with the price
doubled every time 1 bought you
back"
"Oh, you mean my land and my
house. Yes, ] reckon you could, but
you never saw money enough to buy
me. In lookin' through advertisements
for bargains did you ever find happi

no bankrupt stocks of happiness. Oh
used to think along your line
didn't think that I'd ever be happy till
owned all the land adjoinin' my
