MISS EDITH BOWRON
 HOSTESS FOR BRIDAL, PARTY

One can find no place more lovely than the James Bowron residence for a spring time hospitality. The gardens of the beautiful place on the crest of Twentieth street are in full leaf; nere and there some scented plant sends odt it's enchant- ing perfume so that a walk amcng the shrubs and trees by moonlight on some warm evening is a delsht. Last night Miss Edith Bowron entertained the bridal rarty who are to attend Miss Joy Tom linson and MT. Carter this evening at their wedding, the tennis court was lighted and number of the guests strelled out there to spend q portion of the evening. Others sat on one of the Nerandah hs at such time as they were not within doors sharing a delightful supper or gathering as near as thoy might to catch each note of Mrs. Stephensons lovely voice as she sang some favorite love song or quaint old ballad to Mrs. Dowmans or Miss Bowrons accompan ni- ment So the evening was one of the most charming that has been passed by the members of the nuptial party, espe- cially those who have come down from the north to whom welcome was extended by Mrs Bowron and Miss Bowron was the emiptome of southern hospitality.
 The big rooms of the Bowron residence were adorned with garden flowers. On one of the porches Japanese lanterns d bowl was stationed on a daintily ap- pointed table in the corner. In the din- ing room hydrangeas and snowballs were lavishly used with ferns and smilax to produce an effective decoration for the table and buffets.
 Miss Bowrons guests included the we'd ding party and few additional friends. Among the number were Miss Tomlinson, MT. Carter, Miss Bland Tomlinson Miss Elizabeth Oliphant of New Jersey. MT. and Mrs Pelham Anderson, Miss Eliza beth Bowie, Miss Virginia Underwood, Miss Clara Lee Woodson, Miss Jett Ali leen Farley, MT. and Yrs Hugh Stokely, MT, and Mrs. Jack Bowron, Mir. and Mrs. Tom Bowron, Mr and Mrs. Paul chalifoux, Dr. and Mrs. James McLes- ter, MT. and Mrs. Richard Hawkins MT and Mrs. Everhard Meade Mrs Annie R. Tomlinson Mrs. Henry Stewart Car ter, MT. John H. McQuillen Carter, Mir Price McQuillen MT Louis Stovell Mir Sidney Martin, and MT. Hamilton Diss- ton of Philadelphia, Mir Bryan Tomlin- son. MT.

Music Student Wants Advice

My. sister will soon be graduated from one of the leading musical col leges In this cit. She has not decided to teach or to play in concert work. As It Is such difficult road 10 travel for a beginner, thought I would ask some of the Cornerites, who have made a sue- cess of music either teaching or other wise. for their advice Also how would one go about getting a position as teacher of the piano in an academy
 MRS. l.. l..
 The class of Cornerites designated by our correspondent will please note the appeal of the musicians sister and give it their serious attention. Musicians have, in a high degree. the esprit du. corps" which makes brother and sister craftsmen kin. Will they hold out a kindly hand to the young girl?

Some General Information

I should be pleased to correspond with woman of the H. H. C., prefer ring one between the ages of 30 and 35. l have always lived in the city and am now upon a farm, and enjoy receiving something besides the papers. Can you tell me how to clean dress that was smoked from lantern? Can you tell me how l may get general information as to the conditions, business, and farming and the opportunities of Cuba and South America? I should prefer something I can get in magazine form. 1 am 10 miles from library and we cannot af- ford to purchase expensive books. have a few small scraps of silk and velvet I will gladly pass on, as they might just complete a corner of quilt l received the magazines so kindly sent to me by members of the Corner and appreciate the kindness. Caan you also tell me how much capital it takes to start national bank in Iowa? Does the number of inhabitants of a city make any difference as to the amount of cap ital required in either Illinois or Iowa to start state or national bank?
 "B. s. &"
 or myself l can give you seant infor- nation upon most of the topics you set before us. l can tell you to brush lightly as much of the smudge as will come away from the dress by using a soft brush such as Is made for dressing hats. This done, sponge with pure ether or ether and alcohol I can assure you that the scraps of silk and velvet will be gratefully received by our auiltmak kers. Statlstlcs such as you would gain con- corning business conditions and banks in the regions named are beyond my ken. Keep watchful eye upon this col umn.

and entertainments have not been cared for before. This, of course will all come in the work of the City Beautiful club To terrace these trenches and gulleys- fill them in and plant them with grass and beautify them will be one of the main objects of the work. This has already been done in several instances, and we hope to do more as the time goes on under the city beautiful plan of improvement"
 Has modernism invaded Elyton to the extent that the unsightly billboards de- tract from the general appearance, as in many other suburbs?" | asked.
 'Yes, indeed answered Mrs. Black burn. That is another thing that we hope will be remedied in time. It is in the hands of the commissioners and we have been assured by them that as soon as it is feasible for them to take any action in the case that the billboards will be removed, although as yet they have no authority to do so. Not alone is the billboard question vital one in Elyton. but all over the city. I think there is nothing more unsightly or more unattrac- tive"
 Another thing that I am delighted to see as a result of the city beautiful plan,' Mrs. Blackburn continued, ''is that the old Elyton cemetery is to be taken care of. The idea has met with a hearty response from all the older citi- zens of the community, and Mrs. Rivers Carter has assumed the chairmanship of the work and under her supervision good results will no doubt accrue. The beau tifying of the cemetery will be the most vital point in our city beautiful work at Elyton. The cemetery where so many of our forefathers are buried has been neglected to some extent, and there is so much work that can be done there mak- ing the cemetery beautiful spot and one which would be an improvement to Elyton in every way"
 T presume in spite of the fact that so many people own their own homes in Elyton an inheritance, many of them that there are still many renters just as there are in town" I suggested.

WIRT ADAMS BURIED
 IN JACKSON SUNDAY

Jackson, Miss, April 2Z-(special.)- .)-No funeral ever held in Jackson was more largely attended. perhaps than was that of State Revenue Agent Wirt Adams this afternoon. Long after the ap- pointed hour, o'clock, St. Andrews Episcopal church was packed to suf- location, and hundreds who would have attended the last sad rites could not gain admission, but stood with bowed heads on the pavements in front and to the sides of the church.
 The services were conducted by the rector. the Rev. William Mercer Green and were short and simple just as the decea sed would have had them.
 Knights Templar and Knights of Py- thias acted as escort to the grave at Greenwood cemetery, sacred spot to all Jackson, and in the beautifying of which MT. Adams gave years of time and attention.

The Episcopal church andm
 Oscar " Hunt Stephenson studio

That is quite true" said Mrs. Black burn, "and that is one thing that makes it so difficult for us to accomplish any, thing in our city beautiful work. Many of the property owners live at a great distance, some in New York, some in the far west, some abroad, and they do not understand as they haven't seen their property for many years, what is needed. They do not know, and they will not spend money on improvements. and the consequence Is that many of the rented places are in very bad condition. Of course. the person who rents a home one year and may move out the next year, naturally does not want to spend much money either in laying out a garden or in planting trees and shrubs and flowers. and yet with the cooperation of the property owners, if the places could be improved, and mutual understanding arrived at, the arrangement could be easily made whereby each could do his part"
 Have the members of your City Beau- tiful club responded enthusiastically to the idea?" I asked
 ''Yes," said Mrs Blackburn. We have hade some meetings and we have ar ranged the club so that We have four subchairmen who have under their per- sonal direction the women of the various neighborhoods and in this way the per- sonal note is touched upon and we get much better results. First avenue is di- vided into two parts and the side streets are divided with sections and in this way it makes it easier for us to accomplish our work. The little church which has stood in Elyton for years and years the property of the Church of the Ad- vent--is another spot that means much to old settlers. It is understood that this is to be put into better condition and that it will be improved under the city beau tiful plan, and this will certainly make one of the greatest possible additions to the cleanliness of E1yton and the adja- cent surroundings"
