There will be carnival in this city
The reason we use the name church
carnival is because the churches have
the first choice, and won't be crowd
ed out by other booths. All lodges
and clubs have permission to rent
booths and any person who desires
to have a booth, and run success
full business, can rent one. There
will be plenty of room for you all.
We suggest that every church have
their sign over their booth; and all
lodges have their signs as the bust
ness men have in the city; A. E.
Garnette has run this work before
and he knows what it takes to have
success. All it will cost any church
o. lodge or any one who has booth
will be the rent for his BOOTH and
that will be small sum. We will
arrange for all other expenses. We
have the ground located among col
ored people and will have large tents
for booths; 80 by I20 feet. Space for
booth will be 10 by rs feet. If any
church or lodge want TO have their
own tent we will rent them the
ground. Friends we can't all run
grocery. but there are other bust.
nesses we can run that will be COM
mendabe to the Negro race. We
must try and see and look for our
Negro patronage and we can have a
success in this business. You all can
make money. Come and get your
booths.

Old Bridal Customs,

There used to be a custom Of strew-
ing flowers before the bridal couples
as they went to the church and from
the church to the house.
Suppose the way with fragrant herbs
were strewing.
All things were ready we to the church
And now suppose the priest had Joined
our hands
Is quaint old verse that refers to this
custom. The Persians introduce q tree
at their marriage feasts laden with
fruit. and it is the place of the guests
to try to pluck this without the bride
groom observing. If successful. they
must present the bridal couple with a
gift hundred times the value Of the
object removed. In Tuscany brides
wear jasmine wreaths, and there is a
legend that once reigning grand
duke. who at great expense procured
this flower for his own particular gar
den, gave orders to his gardener not to
part with any flowers or clippings. but
the gardener, who was in love, took q
sprig to his sweetheart as gift. She,
being shrewd, planted it and raised
from 1t several small plants, which she
sold to the dukes envious neighbors at
great price. In short time she had
saved sufficient money to enable her
lover and herself to marry and start
housekeeping, and so the Tuscans have
a saying that 1.-THE girl worthy of wear
ing the jasmine wreath is rich enough
to make her husband happy"
