On June "a, 1914, was fought the ia
nous battle of Bannockburn, between
King Edward II of England and King
Robert the Bruce Of Scotland. The
English king was not as wise and as
brave a man as his father. He was IN
fiuenced by unworthy favorites, and for
that reason he allowed Bruce time to
collect a large force and thoroughly
fortify himself against the English
while he indolently looked on.
When Edward found one place after
another falling from his possession he
assembled one of the greatest armies
which a king of England ever COM
manded. There were not less than
100, 900 men.
On the other side Bruce summoned all
his mobiles and barons to Join him when
he heard of the great preparations which
the king of england was making. He
was only able to muster to his support
about 80 900 men. but then Robert was
one of the most expert generals OF his
time. and he had good officers under
him.
Bruce studied how he might supply
by address and stratagem what he
wanted In number and strength. With
this purpose in mind he led his army
down into a plain near Stirling, called
the Park near which, and beneath 1t.
the English army must needs pass
through a Doggy country, broken with
water courses, while the Scots occu-
pied hard. dry ground. He then caused
all the ground upon the front of his line
of battle, where cavalry were likely TO
act, to be dug full of holes, about as
deep as a mans knee. They were filed
with light brush wood, and the turf was
laid on the top, so that it appeared
plain field.
When the Scottish army was drawn
up the line stretched north and south.
On the south 1t was terminated by the
banks of the brook called Bannockburn.
Bruce rode along the line of his army.

TAKES A TITLED HUSBAND

LONDON, June 21.-Miss Mildred Car
ter, only daughter of John Ridgley Car
ter, American minister to Roumania,
Servia, and Bulgaria, and Lord Ache
son, oldest son of Lord and Lady Cos
ford, were married at ST. George S
church, in Hanover Square, this after
noon.
This was one of ;he weddings of the
season which had been anticipated with
much interest by the late King Edward,
because of the close connection of the
parents Of the bridegroom with the
royal household and his majesty's per-
sonal friendship for Mr.. Carter. King
Edward had expressed his intention OF
being present at the ceremony with the
queen and other members of the royal
family AS il was, the list of guests
was a long one.
BRIDAL PARTY.
Canon Sheppard, sub-dean of the
Chapels Royal, officiated, assisted by the
Rev D. Anderson, rector of st. Georges.
The bride, who was given away by her
father, was attended by seven brides
maids, two pages and a little girl. The
bridesmaids were Miss Elsie Ncholl, Of
New York; Lady Thedosia Acheson, sis
ter of the bridegroom; Miss Rhoda Asst
ley, Miss Camille Morgan and Mile.
Irene de la Grange, cousins OF the bride
Lady Victoria Stanley, daughter of Lord
and Lady Derby, and Miss Marion
Scranton. The pages were Masters
David Stanley and Julian Ward, sons
of Lady Aldra Stanley, and Lady Mary
Ward. respectively. and the flower girl
was Miss Diana Roberts, daughter of
Mrs. Marshall Roberts.

in, draped with old Venetian lace and
veil of point de venise. A rope of pearls,
the gift of Lord and Lady Gosford, was
her only jewelry. The bridegroom was

Patrick Acheson, of the British navy.

A Younu Mans OPINIONS

Dear Miss Thomas: VIII you allow another
Georgia boy into your happy band? l see one
letter from Miss Ethel Moody. She said one
old bach proposed to her last fall and she
asked him what about his cooking arrange
ments. She didn't ask him II he could do any
better That old bach might have had some
money so rusty that grease couldn't slicken it.
She said the man she married must at least
be able to own an automobile, and she also
said marry for money by all means. l don't
wonder at her being single, II she had married
for money and got fooled I'm satisfied she
would be a grass widow. If she marries for
love they sure would pull together and have
money and love both and when she marres for
money without love her money won't last long.
Then it will be no money, no pleasure and no
love.

RAINS HURT COTTON;
BUT CORN Is HELPED

CORDELE, Ga. June 22-After an
other heavy rain that fell in this sec
ton Saturday night and early Sunday
morning the farmers are very gloomy
over the prospects for successful COT
ton crop this fall. During the past Two
weeks the rains have been frequent anu
heavy and as result the Farmers nave
heen able to accomplish little work In
the tlelds. Heavy fertilization togeth-
err with the wet weather, has caused
the grass to become almost unmanage-
able and unless fair weather follows the
cotton crop will suffer serious damage
AS early as June last year many cot
ton blooms were seen in the fields, but
I'D to this time but very few planters
can boast of blooms and prospects for
heavy fruit. The crop is fully 20 days
late this year and the plant as rule
is weak and unhealthy.
