city return from Elmira. N. Y, today,
after visiting at the home of his parents.
wedding anniversary, the following ae-
count OF which is clipped from the Ell
mira Star-Gazette of Nov. II. might be
of interest to many of our readers:
Mr.. and Mrs. Thaddeus Waldo Elmore
celebrated their golden wedding in a
very quiet way on Monday, Nov. 16, re-
ceiving in an informal manner.
Several occurrences made this event of
more than ordinary interest. They have
lived in their present home. 100 West
Chemung Place, since their wedding day
in 1864, and all of their four children are
living and were present at the golden
wedding. Mr.. Elmores father, David,
and mother. Charlotte Rose Elmore,
celebrated their golden wedding in the
same house in 1875.
Mr.. Elmore's first ancestor In this
country. Edward Elmer came from Eng
land in 1882 with Rev Thos. Hooker s
party and settled in Newton. now Cam
bridge. Mass, and was one of the origt-
nal settlers of Hartford, Conn. being
killed by Indians at South Windsor in
1876. in one of the battles of King
Philips war. He is believed to be a de-
seendant of Aylmer Bishop of London,
and tutor of Lady Jane Grey. Mr.. Ell
more's great-grandmother. Elizabeth
Waldo, was descended from John Waldo,
also soldier in King Philips war. His
eat-great-grandfather David, was a
revolutionary soldier. and his paternal
grandmother, Lydia Percival, was a
daughter of John Percival. a revolution
airy soldier from Lee. Mass.
The Elmore family settled In Sher-
burne, Chenango Co., N. Y, in 1898,
where Mr.. Elmore's grandfather. James,
was the first postmaster. and built the
first frame house there, and hung out the
first sign for an inn. This sign is now a
family relic. Mr.. Gilmore moved to Ell
mira in 1851, with his parents, where
his father David, began business with a
cousin under the name of ]. N. and D.
Elmore This firm was succeeded by Mr.
Elmore, Who for time was in the part

many years thereafter alone in the retail
crockery business, retiring in 1898.

Nov q. at 7.3o. All delegates and others
Interested are urged to be present in or
der that the work may be gotten under

Fund, organized in association with the
National Belgian Relief Committee for

The motto of the national committee is,
HE GIVES TWICE WHO GIVES
QUICKLY The Augusta committee
will try to put the spirit of this phrase
into action. Contributions Of money
should be sent to the treasurer, Thomas
A. Cooper, First National Bank. Au-
susta. The following is the text of the
appeal sent out by the New England
committee:
The undersigned, a committee of
american citizens, acting with the Bel
gan consul of Boston and the minister
from Belgium to the United States,
working in association with the central
national committee organized by his ex-
cellency, the Belgian minister to the
United States, of which his eminence
Cardinal Gibbons has accepted the hon.
orary presidency, hereby appeal to you
TO contribute according to your means
to relieve the appalling restitution and
misery of the nom combatants of Be-
GUM
Our appeal is in no sense political. We
express no opinion as to the merits of
the awful struggle now in progress in
Europe We seek only to bring force
fully to your attention. that Belgium,
mindful of her obligation to observe
Unreasonable restitution and misery,
and to ask your cooperation in relief
Prosperous Belgian cities have been
practically destroyed, Belgian industries
wage earners have been killed, many
thousand homes have been obliterated,
and unnumbered wives and children have
been made utterly destitute.
the calamity which with Overwhelming
suddenness has fallen upon this peaceful,
thrifty and sef-re,iant people. To every
American who has a heart, vision
must have come of that great army of
the dead, the army of the slain. the
abandoned, the forgotten, the army of
the cruel tortures. and prolonged in
firmities, which pursues its fatal march
behind what We call glory.
America, comparatively unframed
by this world catastrophe, certainly
will not ignore the appeal of the Bel.
gan non- combatants for relief, with
out disresarding in any manner her
duty of neutrality, she can and will
succor the women, children and other
non combatants Of stricken Belgium.
Early next week the committee for Au-
gusta will give notice of a place and the
time for the receipt of clothing food and
other articles that will be acceptable,
and that can be forwarded to the proper
authorities All money and contributions
will be forward TO Belgium through the
offices of the Belgium legation at Wash
ington. and the consuls at New York
and Boston.

AN OLD FASHIONED
"DUCK|NG STOOL"
ADVOCATED FOR OLD LADIES ON
THE PARK BOARD BY MAY

Atlanta, June r. The establish

stool on the edge of Piedmont

er old ladies' Of the board can b
treated Ike they used to treat the
town-scolds in Puritan days, is adj
yocated by Mayor Woodward and eth
er indignant city officials, who say
that the park board is making the
whole city hall ridiculous by its oil

bathing suits.
If the ducking stool is established
II is proposed to make all the PARK
board members wear shirts with long
sleeves, and coats and furs and
overcoats In order that they may be
perfectly modest whaa they are
soused under.
The present immediate agitation
grows out OF the fact that the park
board has reenacted its rules against
sleeveless bathing suits in the face
Of the declaration by the mayor and
Park Manager Dan Carey that the
sleeveless suits we're all right.
Uncle Jim Woodward, the mayor,
has got his dander up. He feels
the park board is trying to interfere
lselessly and fcoIishly with the rights
and pleasures Of the people.
