Miss Cora MCCord Present
Executives Bride "a Years
Ago Today.

When something more than "a years
ago, Miss Cora McCord named Feb
ruary ~ as the day upon which she
and Joseph MaCkay Brown should wed,
she little dreamed that she was select
ing a day to be set aside by the state
legislature years afterward as "Geor-
gia day" and made legal holiday
within the commonwealth
And yet. all unwittingly, that is pre-
cisely what she did do, and today
Georgia day--she and the governor of
the state are celebrating the twenty
fourth anniversary Of their wedding.
The governor says he was quite as
unthoughtfuI Of the great future event
as was his promised bride-but he
thinks she thought h. might become
governor some day ali right, or presi-
dent!
OF course. the governor says he had
"uo eye whatever on the executive of
nee at the time" although his father
had been governor before then, and was
one Of Georgia's most distinguished cit
izens.
1t was some time after February II
had been set aside by the legislature as
Georgia day before the governor and
Mrs. Brown heard the news. When
they did, naturally they were delighted
Mrs. Brown is quite as ardent a Geor-
gian as the governor ever dared to be-
and both she and the governor consider
it a most happy circumstance that their
wedding anniversary and Georgia day
should fall on the same date.
