TUPELO MISS. FRIDAY. JULY S, 1912
Clark-Gl,bert.

A beautiful June wedding was
celebrated Thursday morning of
last week at nine o'clock in the
Christian church at Rolf, Okla.
when Miss Cecil Gilbert and Mr..
Gilbert Clark were united in
marriage. The church was
transposed into a scene of lowell
ness by the members of the
brides Sunday school class (fifty
in number) and it was a fitting
place to plight loves vows.
As the sweet notes of Mendel-
ssohn's wedding march pealed
forth from the organ under the
deft fingers of Miss Elizabeth
Smith, the ushers, Messrs. Will
son, of Ada, Okla. and Geo.
Kuykendal, of Rolf, marched to
the chancel and took their places.
The bride entered upon the arm
of her sister, Miss Grace Gilbert,
while the groom and his best
man. his cousin, 7. M. Clark, Jr.,
of Verona, Miss, entered from
the rear. Rev. James in an i'm
pressive ceremony pronounced
| the words that united their lives
| in wedlock. Il Love You" was
played softly during the cere-
mony.
The bride is the accomplished
daughter of DR.. j. W. Gilbert,
formerly of Verona, but now of
Rolf. Okla. She is a universal
favorate both in social and re-
ligious circles. She is possessed
of q charming personality that
has won for her a host of warm
friends. The groom comes from
one of the oldest families of the
south, and is. one of the most
promising young business men.
The popularity of the bride
AID groom was shown in the
number of elegant presents re-
ceived from several states.
The bride was handsomely
gowned in blue with hat and
gloves in harmony. Mr.. ard
Mrs. Clark left Immediately after
the ceremony for Memphis where
they were entertained by rela-
tives. They then came on to
Verona, their future home.

THREAT OF STRIKE
 AMONG BARRIERS

Little Rock, Dec. 31-Tnere is a threat of barbers' strike in Little Rock on the 1st of January to usher in the New Year. And it is all due to the action of the Union in adopting new sched- ule of charges, adding cents for a neck shave. Some mathemati> cal genius among the tensorial artists figures out that on a rush Saturday a barber loses three hours shaving necks that don't need it, and they are kicking. But the boss barbers as a rule do not agree with the journey men. Only three out of twenty bosses have agreed to the new schedule, and unless the others "come across" Gillettes will be in big demand in a few days. There are seventy>two journey men barbers employed in the twenty union shops of the city, and they believe they are in a po- sition to force their demands.
