SAYS the Wheeling Intelligencer very
truly: In this money-mad commercial
age it is not surprising that unscrupu-
lous and constituencies dealers should
take advantage of the Affections that
have come to the human race to profit
thereby. There is no tangible excuse
for the advance in price on foodstuffs
in this country. One of the most boun-
tiful harvests Providence ever vouch-
safed In the United States is about to
be garnered. 1t seems as if it had been
mercifully provided to meet the ext
gencies that have arisen through the
European wars. 1t is true that this
country will be subjected to a few in
conveniences by reason of this bellig-
erent state, but the dependency of this
country on foreign imports does not ex-
tend to the necessities of life, which
are around US in liberal profusion.
1t is highly encouraging that Con-
gress has taken cognizance of the in
lquity, and that measures are forming
to curb the spirit of inordinate greed
that does not hesitate to prey upon the
public for their own enrichment and the
impoverishment of the unfortunate.
This class should be held up to the scorn
and contempt of the country, and they
be made to feel the heavy hand of the
law for their nefarious practices.

PRETTY ANNOUNCEMENT PARTY
Coming Marriage of Miss Harrison
and Hayne Jones Announced.

Liberty Lodge" is deservedly re-
nowned for its hospitality, and Sep
tember 9th did but intensity the feel
ing that the Stribling family possess
ed the happy art of entertaining.
On Wednesday afternoon Miss
Anna Stribling was at home in honor
of Miss Mamie c. Harrison. The
spacious piazza was used as an out
door parlor, and dainty tables, set in
red and white, were placed there for
most amusing progressive contest
in which Cupid candy hearts and
candy tongs were at times all too
closely connected. Miss Julia Max
well succeeded in capturing for her
self more hearts than any one and
was rewarded for her skill with a
heart-Shaped tray. The fair honoree
was given similar tray, beautifully
decorated. Miss Maxwell presented
her tray to Miss Harrison.
The beautifully moulded heart
cream and cake were most heartily
enjoyed, after which each guest was
given red heart bon-bon box, in
which were the mysterious lines:
"A red, red heart that opens at your
touch;
A blank that may mean nothing or
much;
match, candle, read them true
They contain a message for YOU"
The message which leaped to the
light was nothing less than the inter-
esting announcement that the inter
twlned hearts bearing the names of
Miss Mamie G. Harrison and Hayne
Grant Jones would be merged into
one on October 7th.
The color scheme Of red-love's
own-and white, was carried out in
every particular.
Throughout the afternoon the
hostess was assisted by her sisters.
Those enjoying the happy hours
were Misses Mamie, jamie, Katie and
Hannah Miller Harrison, Nettie
Jones, Julia and Sue Maxwell Dora
Pitchford, Norma Clinkscales, Eloise
and Irene Strother, Daisy Strong, and
Margie VanDiviere, Of Savannah.

Orphan Work Day.

Our people have become familiar
with the meaning of the words "Or-
phan Work Day" They mean SIM
ply this, that there are in our orphan
a great number of father
less children, dependent upon the
loving care of the Christian people
in this State. AS the only means of
their support is from the voluntary
gifts of generous men, women and
youth, it may very well happen--and
it does happen-that the supplies for
the support Of these thousands Of
orphans run short at the end Of the
summer, and immediate relief is
needed. And hence the inventive
mind OF a Jealous Georgia Methodist
preacher made the suggestion that on
the last Saturday Of September,
which Is the 26th day, of this month,
our people proceed diligently to work
as usual, and that they divide the
proceeds OF that days work, or their
regular income Of that day, to the
support OF such a one Of our orphan
institutions as appeals to them.
There are in South Carolina the
Thorn well Orphanage at Clinton, the
Connie Maxwell Orphanage at Green
wood, the Epworth Orphanage at
Colum bia, each with about 800 pupils
in charge, (and every one Of them in
need OF prompt assistance); then
there is the Church Home at York
Vile with about 100 pupils-in all
more than thousand children.
The churches and Sunday schools
of the various denominations should
vie with each other in seeing who
will do the best for their orphans
Gifts from individuals can be sent at
once or later; the gifts from churches
and Sunday schools Immediately af-
ter the 9th day Of September. when
the collections will be taken up. Send
to the institution Of your choice

Mr.. Aiken Thanks PeoDle.

Editor Kcowee Courier: Allow me.
through your paper, to express my
deep gratitude to the people of Oco-
nee county for the very compliment
tary vote given me in the recent
election.
Since my opponents could in truth
point only to one vote in my entire
career in which, in their opinion,
had failed to vote correctly, | take
it that all my other votes have been
beyond criticism. / am deeply CRATE
full to those who are in accord with
me on the questioned vote, and | am
no less grateful to those who, dis
agreeing with me, have nevertheless
recognized my right of opinion on a
non-partisan question and have gen
erously supported me.
If l have lacked anything in SER
vice to the people of the Third Dis
trict it has not been through negli-
gence, and | need scarcely add that
! return to my duties with renewed
vigor and with the kindliest feelings
to all my constituents, whether they
supported me in the recent primary
or not. Respectively,

He resided in San Angelo for 3 years
prior to going TO Austin, a year or
more ago. He requested me to re-
member him kindly to all of his old

him better than to go back there and

THE FENCE LAW.

To prevent confusion in voting
on the Fence Law, read this care
fully.
The Legislature of 1913 pass
ed a bill making a four wire
fence a lawful fence in Nevada
County, provided the same is
ratified by the people in the
coming election. There is
printed on each ballot For Fence
Law" and Against Fence Law"
If the voter favors a change in
the law from what it is now, he
should erase the words Against
Fence Law"-leaving the ballot
read For Fence Law" and his
ballot would then be counted in
favor of a four wire fence.
If the voter thinks all fences
should be hog tight, then he
should erase the words For
Fence Law"
To vote "For Fence Law"
means that four wires are all
that will be required.
To vote Against Fence Law"
means that your vote is counted
for a five foot hog tight fence,
as the law stands now.
If a majority Of the voters are
For Fence Law" then after
January l, 1915, a four wire
fence is all that is required.
