West Fairview, Pa, March 80.
On Saturday, March %, 1914,
Miss Harriet Maye Mellott, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. George F.
Mellott. formerly of the Big Cove,
but now residing near Mercers-
burg, Pa, and Mr.. Harrison
Keefer Hagerman, of Greencas-
tie, were united in the bonds of
holy matrimony by your hum
bic servant" at the Lutheran
parsonage at this place. A host
of friends extend to the bridal
party their best wishes. Mr.. and
Mrs. Hagerman intend to start
farming, in Franklin county, on
the first of April.
The invitations, of the gradu-
ating class in the Theological
Seminary at Atchison, Kans., are
out. One of Fulton county's
former boys, in the person of
Chas. w. Seville is a member of
the class. Mr.. Seville has al
ready honored his home and place
of nativity, by aspiring to the
holy office of the ministry of the
Gospel; and, more especially, by
continuing his studies, in college
and seminary, when health was
impaired to such an extent that
men declared, that he was sub
ject more worthy for a cemetery
than a seminary; and under 9TH
er conditions, which only the
strongest wills and bravest hearts
would endeavor to surmount. He
had a purpose in mind when he
left McConnellsburg. He set
about to reach the high goal of
the sacred office. He met the
difficulties which beset him Z.
Time and again his plans and
hopes were thwarted: he took
fresh courage. and moved man.
fully onward, now he has tri-
umphed, and soon will hold the
cherished sheepskin-th the diplo-
ma of one of the schools of the
Prophets. as his partial reward
| am persuaded that Fulton coun-
ty knows little of what it cost
Brother Seville to press up to the
mark which he has now attainedl
But, if a mans work reflect upon
the home of his youth and early
life,. Fulton county already has
no little credit set to her account,
per the position she held in the
life of Chas. w. Sevillel If more
boys, leaving the rural districts,
would turn up like Chas. Seville,
a minister of the Gospel, many
desert places, would hear the
glad tidings of salvation, which
now seem to be more of a menace
to the nation than aught else,
Fulton county can be glad to be
honored, as the birth place OF
men bearing and presenting dis
positions and spirits such as the
Rev. Chas. w. Seville has shown,
Our heartiest congratulations &c
out to him! Let his fellow citi.
zens know of the path he has
trod, and the heights he has at.
tanned. Perhaps some youth, ir
whose, heart there may be lurk'
ing a desire to likewise unfolC
the unsearchable riches of Christ,
but which, because of many
things, which need not be men
toned here, has not yet beer
made known to man, may be en-.
couraged to set his face toward
the goal which the Almighty
means him to reach.

been prepared for the evening, from
s to 10 o'clock, during which time,
the guests are supposed to come and
go, so as to accommodate the large
number which will be present at
different times during the evening
A small admission of 25c will be
charged. In the spacious basement
of the Talbert home, a long room

The Play Last Nisht.

One of the best houses of the
season. a full house, in fact, gathered
at the Park opera house last night
TO witness a fairly creditable produc-
tion of that ever popular drama,
"Graustark." 1t was not an over
critical audience. for taken as a
whole the play was well received and
even enthusiastically at time. 1t was
a very pretty production, though
not overstrons, something of the
fineness of the characters, as delin-
eated in ;he book being taken away
by the light treatment given them
in the play. The stage settings were
fine. however Miss Valentine made
handsome princess and carried off
the honors easily, with Frederick
McQuirk as Harry Anguish. close
second, The court scene was good
although few more people would
have added to the impressiveness OF
the court of a princess. On the
whCle. however. it was thoroughly
enjoyed and by a much larger house
than has been present at many OF
the far superior attractions showr
| this past season.

Contribute to victrola Fund.

At the regular meeting Cg ihe
board of education en- Tuesday even
ing it was voted to make an appro-
priation of $40 to make - ,.-e jeff
cheney for buying the Virtrola for
the high school and leaving some
over for the purchase Of few good
records. Although Z nice little sum
was realized by tie concert given a
short while ago for the benefit of
this fund. there was still something
lacking to make up the necessary
amount and the action of the board
will be greatly appreciated by the
entire student body. The Victrola
will be of the portable kind, so that
IL may be taken to the old high
school building for the benefit of the
freshmen classes as well as those in
the new building. The idea of buy
ing the Victrola is to give the stu
dents an idea and a taste for the best
music and composers and the great
singers, great many of whom
would never be heard in any
other way.
