When John Gearys eyes had rested
on Sally Morton, clerk at the Bon Ton
store, soon after his arrival In the
town, they fingered upon her pretty
face longer than they had ever lin
gered on woman's face before. His
first visit to her home convinced him
that he had found the one Of whom
he had dreamed He began saving his
money. He had an object in life. And
he never felt anything but pride when
his companions "jollied" him a bit
about Sally.
John was still smiling as he mount

Dear Miss Grey: "a What Is the
difference between American and Eu-
ropean plan hotels? (2) What is meant
by "a la carte" and table d'hote?"
IGNORAMUS.
Am American plan hotel is one
where the daily rate includes the cost
OF room and meals; the European plan
hotel Is one where the rate includes
simply the room rental-the meals are
extra. CD "a la carte" service rs serv-
ice under which each item ordered Is
charged separately on the bill and
then footed up. Table d'hote" SER
vice Is service under which a whole or
any part OF a meal can be ordered at
the given price.
Dear Miss Grey: My sweetheart
has been taken from me by death and
feel very sad Recently | met one
whom | think | could love. Shall
let this new love come into my life?
Do you think IL would be unfaithful?
G.
A.-By all means allow this new
love to come into your life. 1t Is not
a question OF faith or unfaith, but or
your happiness. Your former sweet
heart is gone beyond recall. II he but
knew, and he loved you truly and UNI
selnshiy, am sure he would not wish
you to miss the greatest happiness
which comes to woman-that OF wife
hood and motherhood. Try to look at
1t in this way.

FREAK MARRIAGES.

SO sorry for the matrimonial expert

Romance drove another couple into

New York harbor, UP 5000 feet OF

Marriages on horseback are CON-
paratively common, one on record be-

minister were going at full gallop. All
were CARRIED In fashionable hunting
costume. Carriage weddings are also
reported, and at least one young
couple Joined hands In a touring car
at s0-mile speed.
Two young people who spent their
honeymoon in Europe were married in
a taxicab on the way to the dock at
New York.
Beside marriages in hospitals are
not uncommon, and prisons also fire.

one of the parties is temporarily de-

Marriages have taken place In bal

One young woman became a wife

arrows through the heart Of Miss

John found himself stupidity holding
the stick in his hand. The first stun.

made up quickly. He could never set

cuse that he was sick, he went home.

WE SHOULD BUILD THIS ROAD.

There is within radius Of % miles
OF Brunswick a vast settlement Of
busy people, practical farmers, raisers
Of country produce, small truckers
and ideal country people generally,
Who are now forced to do their mar
keting, trading, etc, in Jesup for the
simple reason that the public road
10 Brunswick is not passable beyond
old Sterling for a period Of six miles.
Tee road known generally as the
harrington road, leads to and travers-
es this settlement 10 which we refer
and by building its road from old
Sterling to tap the harrington road,
these people would be enabled to
come to Brunswick for a market and
the covered wagon with its load of
cotton, produce, etc, would not he a
stranger to our streets. 1t has long
been q dream of the people of Bruins
wick to see the outlying country dis
tricts bac!; of them built up inlo
tdrifty farm settlements, that we, as
4 city, might become their trading
center and here is a splendid oppor-
tunity to stimulate a movement
which might mean a great deal to
every merchant, to every business
house in Brunswick
The Glynn county commissioners
will lie asked at their next meeting
TO build this road of six short miles,
connecting Brunswick with the terri
tory we have named which is tributary
TO u.s. and which by right ought to
come here. We trust TIE commits
siOners will give to this request
which the people Of this city is to
make, very serious consideration, for,
as we have said, it may-nay, it will
mean much for Brunswick The News
has it on very good authority that if
Glynn county will take hold Of this
proposition and build these six miles
of road Wayne county will take up
the work in her county and build to
the border of Pierce, which would
give Brunswick a through road to
Blackshear, where she would connect
with other roads reaching into half
dozen other counties.
We simply cannot afford to over
look this matter of road-building,
which is being done all over the coun-
try and which is linking city and
country into bonds of commercial
friendship from the Golden Gaze to
Florida
1t is a real GOOD chance to take
step forward in d sound, solid cause.
