are married and doing well. He has
one son in California who is a sur

ganization of Fremont young ladies,
at her home here yesterday afternoon
in honor of Miss Elsie Hamilton OF
Fremont, who will become the bride
of Prof A. j. Jones, superintendent of
the Fremont schools, tomorrow, Wed
nesday, December II. The affair was
in the nature Of plate shower and
numerous handsome presents fell to
the lot of the bride-elect. Several of
the members of the club reside in Os-
kaloosa and others came from Ere
mont via the Burlington at eleven
O'Clock. Dinner was served at one
o'clock Ior the company of twelve
present. Pretty decorations of pink
and white, the club colors, were used
and hearts and darts abounded. At
the dinner table the bride to be was
placed beneath a pretty white bell
and the scene at the table was as
pretty as can be imagined. Those
seated at the table were: Miss Elsie
Mae Hamilton, guest of honor, Miss
Elizabeth Reeves, Miss Jessie Dunn.
Mrs. Ethel Rhoades, Mrs. Blanche
Rhoades, Miss Grace Ellis and Miss
Lora Ehrenhard of Fremont; Miss
Jessie Coen, Miss Winifred Garrett,
Misses Alma and Edna Crowder and

cake, Miss Priest claimed the piece
with the ring and is thereby marked
as the next bride from the company
A history Of the first year OF the mar
ried life Of the bride-to-be was pre-
sented and was source of continued
amusement for the hearers. Each
girl had prepared a chapter and the
work will be cherished by Mrs. Jones
and preserved for reference and com
parison. Pictures of the company
were made and the afternoon passed
with numerous other details of enter
tainment and pleasure. The "TiI
Top" girls organized as a club at Ere
mont and in the lapse of only five
years almost half of the charter list
of twenty-four have been claimed as
brides. 1t is slyly limited by &C
quaintances that other members Of
the club have drawn capital prizes
