On Thursday afternoon, Feb. 18th,
at the home of the officiating min
lister, Miss Cathryn C. Benzing and
Mr.. Robert Owen were united in
marriage by E. Everett Hollingworth.
The bride has been in Fitzgerald
only a few months, but has made a
host of friends, who will be. glad to
know she is to remain permanently.
The groom is a well-known young
business man, who has been in the
city quite a while. They start life
with the best wishes of many friends.

Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-02-18

Marston spoke for clean lives as we'll
as Goodness, and hoped there would
be many Tidy Clubs" in the city
stating that North Grant St, woulc
have one.
Mrs. Pryor spoke from her heart
when she plead for the boys. She
asked for better example from the
men they look up to, and sometimes
unconsciously, initiate. Another
SUGGESTION was that fruit displayed
openly on the street was a tempta-
ton to the small boy to steal. 1t was
so easy to take something in passing
and small thefts often lead tn great
err ones. Mrs. Farmer was interested
in girls, and expressed herself as in
sympathy with the young misses
who crave the open air but have
no place to enjoy Gods beautiful
sunshine except to walk the public
streets. A public park or playground
for tennis or other outdoor sports
would be a blessing appreciated by
many who are interested in the
health and morals of the young.
Mrs. Brabham made a suggestion
for a physical culture class that if
accepted by the club members and
practically arranged for will be
step in the right direction. 1t would
be hard to mention all the good and
practical ideas suggested; but one
strong idea dominated the whole.
Don't let money and money consid-
erations either in private or civic
life blind your eyes or blunt your
conscience to the evils that confront
every man and woman.
The club were disappointed in
not having the pleasure of listening
to vocal solo by Mr.. CRAZY Hale,
but the piano was not their so he
had no accompaniment.
At the suggestion of Supt. E. E.
Sans the club voted to entertain
the visitors who will be in the city
to attend the Inter-High School
Contest of the 3rd Congressional
District which will be held the 22nd
and 23rd of April. Meeting then
adjourned

THE SuFFRAGiSTS' PURPOSE

Discussion of the Equal Franchlssrs'
 Code of Principles. ...
 Some townspeople, who are inter- ested in the new suffrage movement in Canaan, and who have had little oppor- tunity of becoming acquainted with the subject, have been asking for informa- tion regarding it. Limited space renders it impossible to give, at one time, moro than few of the innumerable reasons in favor of woman suffrage Therefore. an endeavor will be made, in a series of articles. to satisfactorily answer the in- quIries made, in hopes, that by so doing thus publicly in the columns of The News, greater number of those who desire to become more thoroughly in- for ned, may be reacbed.
 :, It is astonishing to find how many in- telligeut people, otherwise keeping abreast with the march of humanitarian interests, have allowed themselves to re- main in ignorance of this greatest ques- tion of modern times.
 Many of us are conservative. we like the good old ways" They pleased our grandfathers. We are comfortable. Why disturb ourselves? This is the at- titnde which combats prog ress. But. we are not living in the time of our grandfathers, nor, many of us. even in that of our fathers. This is 6 new gen- eration and with it have been born new conditions. This great thing is how to meet and treat the new order Of things, an order which has largely to do with new developments in the lives of women. THeso questions will be deait with III The News, beginning in next weeks issue.-Secretary Canaan Equal Fran u, isa Laagu-.

 Cat First Pop.

The latest coon hunt. up to date, was last Thursday nights coon hunt. It was a coonless coon hunt. The expedition didn get single coon. 1t was literally skunked. It comprised Henry B. Ives, Representative "Ned" Roberts. Deputy Sheriff Lew" Rhoades. Constable Al. bert Toussaint. Walter GogSin, John ThurIough. Carroll Thurlough, A. H, Herriman. Tom Sweeney, Tim Sweeney, Sam Siegel, and a reporter without previous experience as. coon hunter.
 It took three caravans to transport the Nimrods to the Miles cottage, at Twin Lakes, which they made their rendezvous by invitation of MT. William Miles who met the hunters, warmed them by his cottage fire, gave them map of the wilderness round about. where the eoons have held high revelry and frolick- ed in their native freedom from time cut of mind, and ba de them godspeed when they sauntered forth to gather in the -''varmints," with "Tige," the Sweeney coon dog on whom all their hopes of coon-meat were centered. On the verge of the start, Herriman, ever mindful of the comfort of others, decided to remain at the cottage and help Miles keep the fire going, to insure comforta- ble warmth for the hunters on their re. turn. hours later.
 The hunters sallied forth, with half dozen lanterns, crossed the tracks, through an orchard, and had not travel ed fifty rods before Tige who had trotted off into a clump of woods ahead, began to bark-a joyful bark, full of promise and music. rs

"KE,S" CARRIAGE UPSET
Remarkable Experience pt Constable
 on HaIlowe'en.

Remarkable Experience pt Constable
 on Hallowe'en.
 Constable I. F. Hornbeek, of Falls Village, had an unusual experience while returning home from Canaan on Hallowe 'en-last Friday night.
 He started at about 6.30, in light rain, and was driving. in his carriage, at moderate rate of speed, when, a short distance thls side of the Vacation House, his horse stumbled and nearly fell. The animal had no sooner recov cred her equilibrium than she stumbled again, and once more was saved from falling, by strong pull en the reins on the part of the driver; but she got her balance only just in time to stumble once more, when she fell flat on her side in the shafts. Before MT Hornbeck could alight the horse rolled over and upset the carriage-oOnstahle and alI- in the road. .-#-
 After considerable difficulty Mir Horn beck managed to get the harness of the animal, and with the help of L. B. Tin ktr, who lives close by righted the ve- hicle, harnessed np and drove home.
 Nothing was damaged in the spill, and the horse behave |. while lying prostrate, as if trained to the part. She had never stumbled in that way before, and the experience was very much as if she had been tripLed by something ia the road, though Mr. H0rnbeck made no investigation. But it was the night of Halloween

The page was prepared by the Herald's Connecticut representative, MT. A. F.

This dis tlnguished attention, giving our town invaluable publicity. is something that many 8 larger town might well be proud of, and The News is glad to Lay before all it's readers, including many who may not have seen the Herald, significant portion of MT. Howe's observations on the waking up of the town, even though the writer has so inextricably interwoven the story with mplimehtary reference to The News and fattering personal .allusion, that we run the risk, in repro ducing it, of subjecting The News to the echarge of negative modesty. Mir. Howe writes
 Until within the last year Canaan would not have been selected as 8 con gpicuous example of an enterprising little town, even as Connecticut small towns go. For many decades the current of it's, existence as self contained and self sufficient semi-rural community and Co., lonial Eden had flowed as evenly and quietly as it's Black berry river seeks the larger Housatonic on it's western border.
 For years It had been the production headquarters of the New England Lime Company, the SO called Lime Trust, and the seat of the pig iron furnaces of the Barnum- Richardson company, which supply the raw material for the thouS ands of car wheels annually made at Lime Rock, and which mark the highest stage of modern progress in the evolution of the crude forges where Ethan Allen and other celebrities of the Revolution toiled at the task of making anchors.

 Comrades You know you went into camp near Halltown August 9th and be- gan drilling for the ordeal before you. The lack of drill allowed you to get rusty but there was little danger of that for you were on the jump most of the time. Halltown lay in the lower or nerth east part of the Shenandoah Valley. This valley has general direction from southwest to the northeast and was somewhat hemmed in by the Blue Ridge mountains on the east and the Shenan- doah mountains on the west. and as you know. was one of the finest farming valleys in the country and had been a granary to the Southern ConfederaoY. Hence General Grants object in send ing Hunter and Siegel to clear out tho valley. Hunter had been up the valley, near to Lynchburgh. but failed to capture the latter. Early appeared before him Tn time to prevent it's capture, and drove Hunter back to Harper Ferry, after leaving trail of destruction down through the valley. and Early. in retaliA- tion, followed and crossed the Potomac at Shepherdstown above Harper Ferry. and burned Chambersburgh, Pa, and stirred up the Governor of Pennsylvania, who called for hundred-days men to repsl the invaders. .sH
