but friends from all parts of the
state sent tangible expressions of
esteem. Two large tables were re-
quired for receiving the presents
that consisted of cut glass, china,
paintings, silver, cutlery, table lin

gifts was a handsome silver salad
dish, the gift of Mr.. Kennerly's
employers. This of course was very
highly priced by him.
The bride is ~deservedly very popu-
lar, having rendered herself SO by
her lovable traits and attractive per-
sonality. The groom was born and
reared in Edgefeld and is held in
very high esteem because of his
sterling qualities, being a most ex-
emplary young man from every
standpoint. For several years he
has represented large shoe manu-
facturers of Chicago and has been
signa.ly successful as a travelling
salesman. Both of these young peo-
pie are to be sincerely congratulated
upon their good fortunes. The Fates
have indeed dealt kindly and gen

PPARD-KENNER
Very Brilliant B Home Wedding
in EdgefieEd Tuesday Even

social events that has occurred in
Edgefeld in many months was the
marriage of Miss Ida Katherine
Sheppard and Mr.. James Boat
wright Kennerly last evening-a at the
home of the BRIDES mother, Mrs.
Ida F. Sheppard. The ceremony
was performed by DR.. G. E. Burts.
Rarely indeed does ones eyes fall
upon a more brilliant or more en-
chanting scene than that which
greeted the guests as they
crossed the threshold of this
very hospitable. home. The; hall
and parior, were most artistically
decorated for this nuptial occasion.
The decorations consisted chiefly
of green and white. Asparagus fern
and Southern smils- were graceful
ly draped over DOORS. windows,
mantels and about the walls, form
ing a beautiful background for the
handsome gowns that adorned the
ladies. The browning feature of the
decoration was the improvised arch
of white roses and ferns beneath
which the troths were plighted.
The ribbon bearers, sweet little
Margaret May and Sheppard Miller,
formed an aisle leading from the
hall to the floral. arch. This,
together with the sounding
of Mendelssohn's wedding
march by Miss Fannie Sheppard,
announced that the suspense of the
eager, expectant guests would now
be broken The first to enter was
the dame Of honor, Mrs. William
S. Cogburn, a sister of the bride.
Next came the bride upon the arm
of her youngest sister, Miss Josie
Sheppard, the maid of honor. The
groom entered upon the arm of his
best man, Mr.. B. 7. Boatwright.
The bride was never more beau-
tiful, nor appeared to better advan-
tage. Her gown was of rich white
messaline satin with pearl trimmings
and the conventional veil, hanging
so gracefully about her slender
form, lent additional charms to the
exquisitely beautiful toilette. The
dame and maid of honor were both
becomingly clad in white mule
with lace trimmings. The beautiful
bouquet that was borne by the bride
was composed of Brides roses aud
fern, while those of the dame and
maid of honor was made of white
sweet peas and ferns.
After the usual. congratulations
and expressions of sincere good
wishes so layishly bestowed by kim
bred and friends of these happy and
widely beloved, young people. A
delightful salad course was served
buffet style.
The sswelterlng temperature OF
this typical June evening was offset
by the delicious and very refreshing

y. Y. spoke but the truth when he
said, people who speak the English

mon law cannot be foreigners to one

in the honors, glories, and victories OF
England. The London Standard once
published an interesting article on the
names of our people, and concluded 1t
by saying, "Virginians are English
people, set down between Hampton
Roads and the Alleghanies, as their
whole history proves; above all their
records in the Civil War. Where could
one find more perfect example of the
stainless English soldier and gentle

"TippinE."

This country is certainly to be con-
graduated, though, on not being, as
yet. one in which the custom of tip
ping has become universal and imper-
ativc. as 1t is In England, where you
begin handing out small coins to ev-
erybody in sight, almost, from the
time you land at Fishguard or South
ampton or Liverpool. until you find
yourself once more back under the
stars and Stripes. it is perfect nui-
sance for rich and poor alike, except
Tor certain services which have al
ways appealed to gentlemen for Il
gratuity, IT almost amounts to high
way robbery. To make visit of
three or four days at a show place
will cost You often as much as $50.
At an ordinary country house, little
shooting will mean at least f25. And
any visit at all cannot be paid for
less than two or three guineas. Some
English hosts object intensely to this
sort of blackmail being levied upon
their guests, and they put placards in
their guests rooms reading: the
servants In this house are we'll and
promptly paid for their services.
Guests will very greatly oblige their
hosts by not offering them gratuities.'
