PRE-NUPTIAL EVENTS.

Miss Nina Kickbusch charmingly en-
tertained at O'Clock dinner for Miss
Thayer and Mr.. w. r. Scholield. on
Tuesday evening, December 3lst, at
which there were twenty four young
ladies and gentlemen present. The
home was decorated in pink and white
and the tete-a-tete tables were very ar
tistically decorated with Miss Kick
busch's own handiwork. A six-course
dinner was served and during the time
az orchestra, stationed in the den off
the parlors, furnished delightful selec-
tons. Previous to entering the dining
room Miss Thayer was presented with
bouquet of pink carnations. The din
ner was followed by music and whist.
The luncheon given by Mrs. j. w.
Coates at her home, GIL Fifth street,
Friday afternoon, for Miss Thayer, was
most charming affair. The hour was
/ o'clock ard the guests were received
by Mrs. Coates and Miss Thayer. The
luncheon was served at tables with
places for four each, the guests number
ing twenty-eight. The decorating
scheme was very appropriate. Pairs of
white doves were suspended with white
ribbon from the ceiling and chandeliers
of the rooms. Upon each table were
pink carnations. After the luncheon,
whist was played and Miss Thayer
made sthe highest number of points.
Miss Swope had the honor of the fewest
Miss Thayer was presented with a tiny
gift, the thought of which was very
pretty. Each guest sent her individual
calling card and upon it had written, at
the request of the hostess, few lines of
good wishes for Miss Thayer. These
cards were taken by Mrs. Coates and
bound into pretty little book with
white ribbon. Upon the cover MRS.
Coates had painted very appropriate
design. -Record- Herald
A lavender party was given by Mrs.
Henry E. Smith for Miss Thayer, on
Saturday afternoon. Guests were re-
quested to bring thimbles and beautiful
ribbons were brought forth out of which
each was requested to make bag, and
which, when completed, was filled with
lavender buds; during the progress of
the work, Miss Thayer played several
selections on the violin accompanied
by Mrs. Clinton Smith on the piano.
Each guest attached sentiment to her
work. and upon these, prizes were
awarded, the same falling to Miss Marie
Johnson and Miss Margaret Dunbar.
Refreshments were served at tete-a-tete
tables with the exception of the bridal
party" which was seated in the dining
room. In the center of the table was a
large bunch of chrysanthemums en-
twined with ribbons, each silken end
leading to the plates of the young
ladies. The PILOT will not say which
one of the five present found her ribbon
attached to the bouquet, because it
meant that she was to become the next
bride. 1t was most delightful after
noon.
Miss Hermione Silverthorn is enter
tanning the Cooking club, at her home
on Grand avenue, in Miss Thayer's
honor, this afternoon.
Miss Dorothy Heinemann will enter
tain the Scholfeld- Thayer wedding
party at rainbow dinner on Friday

The rates provided are seven
cents hundred pounds for six
band bales of Gotten and 81 cents
a hundred pounds ight-band
cotton, the charge in each case be,
ing one cent higher than has pre-
vailed heretofore. The order was

cation which was begun last whit
er on the application of several
independent compress companies

the same as exsist in Alabama,

paper issued here, and since it has

ment has done more for the town.
so good people say, than anything
or any body.
The present company was not
organized to make money but TO
make Fitzgerald grow, but it has
done both and paid back to stock,
holders their money in dividends.
1t has prospered every year.
There is one objection, it has
been too much of a one man paper.
We want to change that, enlarge
the paper'and put it in its own
home. We want YOU in the new
company.

paper to show that the heavy dc
crease in earnings of the railroads
of the South endangers the very
existance of the railroad company.
The Evidence(?) is furnished by
men who have a rpasOn-a real
purpose. We shall file the Chron-
iclc article for reference as it is in
direct conflict with following state
ment from SUNDAYS Atlanta Jour
nal.
Using the financial depression of
last fall and winter as an excuse
the four biggest railroads of Geor-
gia have waxed richer by beating
down the wages of their employees
1t develops that the net earnings
of the Southern railway, the Geor-
gia Railroad and Banking company
and the Western and Atlantic
railroad for the period covered by
the panic show substantial increase
over the net earnings for the cor
responding periods of the previous
year-and the previous year had
been, according to all calculations
the fattest in the history of any of
the corporations.
And the net increases are shown
despite the alleged drastic anti
railroad legislation and passenger
rate reductions. The additional
wealth has been accumulated during
the very time the railroads them
selves have been bowling calmity
and telling people that good
government and fair play were
about to visit wreck and ruin up
on all of their properties.
/ The additional wealth has been
accumulated by the railroads while
they have been crying "hard times
to cut the salaries of their salaried
men and to bring poverty to the
door of their employees by reducing
wages.
CAUSE LITTLE SURPRISE
The disclosures have been
source Of general gratifaction, but
Of little surp rise, to Governor
Hoke Smith and others about the
state capitol who have been stand
ing steadfast in behalf of the peO
pie. They are gratfied because
the true facts should have an i'm
portant bearing upon the present
move of the railroads to increase
the inter. state rates on bread stu1fs
Get. The net earnings of the rail
roads, it is argued, furnish sub
stantial reasons why the proposed
increases arc not justified and it is
believed they will have much to
with preventing the czortion.
Governor Smith was pleased
yesterday to learn of the action of
the United States Court Judge
Emory Speer in enjoining the pro
posed increases in the rates. He
declared that in so far as the state
of Georgia had power it would OPP.
pose vigorously the increase, which
in his judgement was unjustified
and unreasonable.
GAIN IN NET EARNINGS
The net earnings Of the South
ern railway for the month of
April, 1908, show an increase of
1899, 900 over the corresponding
month of 1907.
The net earnings Of the South
ern for the month of May, this
year, as compared with the
same month of the previous year
show an increase of 100000.
The Georgia railroad, the old re-
liable Georgia railroad, whose pas
senger rates were reduced to . Is
cents per mile, melted a substan-
tial increase for the months of

How To Fry Doughnuts

An experienced housekeeper gives the
following excellent method of frying
doughnrts which is usually considered q
most difficult thing to do. She says:
Let me tell you how | manage my
doughnuts and fat. l have a basin that
l keep my fat in. L save all my meat
'drippings and add that to my fat and
when / want to use my fat | always
strain it into a kettle | keep for frying
doughnuts. l always clarity my fat every
time | use it with one or two sliced
potatoes. When my fat gets low | add
lard | always strain my fat after using.
Now when | make my doughnuts ! al
ways have my little agate dipper flied
with hot water on the stove beside my
kettle of fat and | take out each
doughnut | dash 1t quickly through the
hot water 1t keeps the doughnuts moist
and free from fat. Thanks to some kind
sister of the Globe for this idea. After
my doughnuts are all fried | strain off my
fat and set away my little dipper of hot
water to cool, and you will be surprised
to see how much fat rises on the top.
Then / pour off the water and save the
fat. Economy is wealth" This is my
recipe for doughnuts: One cup sweet
milk, one cut sugar. two eggs, scant
one-haf teaspoon of ginger, two tea
spoons baking powder, grated nutmeg,
flour to make 1t stiff enough to roll. but
don't knead your dough Handle as littie
as you can; add pinch of salt IT you
