In the death of Aida Overton Walker
the race loses it's brightest female
star in the theatrical profession. 1t
will be a long time before her place
will be filled. Beginning at the age
of sixteen this talented young artist
forged to the top Of her calling with
a pace almost miraculous. She was
not only interpreter of comedy roles
but also took high rank in legitimate
dramatic are and as a danceur she
had few equals. Her loss is mourned
by thousands, white and colored,
throughout the entire country.

LUNCHES FOR NEGRO PUPILS.
Food Will Be Served at Cost to Lin.
coin School Children.

The first lunch room to be built in
connection with a negro school will
be installed at the Lincoln ward
school. Many of the pupils attending
the school live considerable distances
from the building, and it is for their
convenience that the lunch room will
be established. Food will be served
to the children at cost. The room
will be open for use in about ten days
Another department valuable to
many of the children personally will
be a shoe-repairing department to be
opened at the Lincoln school. The
work will be done in connection with
the manual training and the children
will have their own shoes to care for.
The course is believed to be a prac-
teal one for the Lincoln school, espe.

1t is depressing to note with what laxity our children
are being trained in our modern homes. The old-fashioned re-
hgious influences have almost disappeared. Children are a-
tually being encouraged in things that are vain and shallow.
The real traits of character among which are truthfulness,
fidelity, hhal love, punctuality and reverence are given such
little esteem that it almost causes one to shudder for the future.
Flocks OF children are seen going late to school each day.
They appear to have no idea of the value of promptness. In
many cases they are loud and bosterous upon the streets, thus
attracting the attention of those who are fond of pointing out
our fraities.
The school must not be held wholly responsible for these
things. We must look to the home for the most enduring in
fluenceS.

DANGER AFTER GRIPPE
Lies in Poor Blood, Cough and
 Worn Out Condition.

Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia are greatly to be feared at this season.
 To prevent grippe from being fol- lowed by either pleurisy or pneumo- mia. it is important to drive the last traces of it out of the system.
 Our advice is to take Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron prepara- tion without oil, and get your strength and vitality back quickly.
 w. w. Lake of Aberdeen, Miss, says: Grippe left me weak. rundown and with a severe cough from which l suffered for a long time I tried different remedies, but nothing seem- ed to do me any good until took Ninol from which I received great benefit. My cough is almost entirely gone and am strong and well again"
 Try Vinol with the certainty that If 1t does not benefit you We will give back your money

On last Sunday afternoon al 3:30 o'clock, A pril 26, 1914. at the lovely home of MT and Mrs. L. H McGutfey, on North Forrest street, extended, their charming niece, Miss Nelma Ruff, b, was happily married to MT. Homer Stewart, 20, of Little Rock, Rev. Dr. F. W. Gee of the Methodist church, officiating. There were nc cards, and the ceremony was solemn. ized in the presence Of the McGutfey family and just a few very intimate friends.
 The happy couple left immediately on the 4:l4 west bound Rock Island for Little Rock, where the groom is a prosperous saddlery and harness deal CT and where they will make their future home.
 The bride is well known to a large circle of friends here and at Madison where sbe has resided with her rela uves, and is most estimable and ac compished young woman.
 The Times desires to heartily ioiI in al the congratulations and many good wishes which have been so lavish ly bestowed upon them, and hopes they may realize the fruition of theil fOndeSt dreams of health and pros perity.

Hon. Otto B. Rollwage, who had this same subject lasts year, upon a similar occasion, but whose inexhaust- able fund of information, wit and sympathetic interest in the subject, gave his address added interest, and it was greatly enjoyed, as was evi- denced by the hearty applause given him at the close. He stated among other things that whereas there were seven widows at the orphanage last year, when he addressed the lodge and it's friends upon a similar occasion, there were now only five, and advised Uncle Jack Allen, and other gallant widowers who have been unsuccessful in fooling another woman in this county, to go to Batesville and per haps he would have better luck.
 After the singing of "Auld Lang Syne," supper was announced, and those present fell to it with relish and interest which was very high compliment to those who prepared it. Dainty sandwiches, pickles, salads, and sundry other good things to eat, panied by score or more of de. licious cakes, ice cream of various kinds, etc, made up the menu to which full justice was done It was matter of comment that the cakes were sliced in such generous and bountiful manner that one slice was the greatest abundance for any two persons, and just such liberality and bounteous hospitality characterized the whole affair.
 After supper the congregation sang God be With You Till We Meet Again, and Rev. Gee pronounced the benediction upon an occasion long to be remembered as one of the happiest in the history of Forrest City Lodge No l96, l. o. o. F., and the Rebeccas
 It was one of the largest and hap piest gathe rings we have seen in For rest City for many years, and every one present seemed to be very happy to be there. It was an affair that all will long remember for it's many pleasant features, and we hope it will oft be repeated.
 We thank the lodge and the brother for a cordial invitation to be present. And we were present, and we enjoyed every moment of the time we spent there.

JONeS-vOGEL
Romantic Climax to Old Love Affair, Recently Renewed, Makes Miss
 Mattie VOgel a MatrOn

Forrest City was all agog last Sun day with pleasant anticipations of the climax to an old love affair between Miss Matte Nogel, one of the city's most beautiful and charming young women, and Mir. Albert l.. Jones. a prosperous young Memphian, which had recently been renewed during the presence in Memphis of Miss Vogel.
 MT. Jones, who conducts a prosper ous grocery business at 134l Popular street, in the Bluff City, arrived here last Sunday morning, April 26, 1914, to claim Miss Vogel for his bride.
 The preliminary arrangements had all been made and at five o'clock the same evening the happy nuptial knot was tied. The wedding was solemnized at the beautiful and inviting home of Mrs. NJ. R. Terry, the family being very close friends of the bride, Rev. Dr. F. w. Gee of the Methodist church officiating in his most beauti. ful and impressive manner. The we'd ding march was rendered by Miss Mary York.
 foilo"lnP the ceremony which was a very quiet affair, and witnessed only by members of the brides family and a few intimate friends, MT. and Mrs. Jones left at $40 over the Rock Island for Memphis, their future home.
 A short two months ago the bride left her home in this city for the pur- pose of taking a course in short hand and stenography at one of the princi- pal business colleges in that city. She was making admirable progress in her studies unsil she met the gallant and handsome MT. Jones, when they re. newed a very pleasant acquaintance of some two years ago, and her dreams and aspirations of a career in the busi. ness world were dispelled by the groom ardent wooing
 And so the romantic courtshir which sprang up between them was most happily eliminated by their marriage here last Sunday afternoon.
 The happy couple were followed to the train by a large crowd of happy and well-wishing friends who made their life miserable so to speak, dur ing their waiting for the train, by showers of rice and other pranks usual to such occasions. It was a merry
