Great Success.
Children Captivate
The Audience.

'EThe Tom Thumb Wedding"
given last nigh5 at the Opera
House, under the auspices Of the
U. d C's was quite a success
from start to finish.
Truly there was never more
natural acting on any stage. The
wee actors and actresses were
playing their, natural roles sin
the land of make believe" And in
this land there are 40 parts they
love SO dearly as to dress up''
ana "play like" the grown ups.
They were all darling, all cute,
and irrestably cunning. from the
grandfathers anil grAndm oJhefs of
the bride and groom to the young
est guest present, little Lewis
Abrams, who was the unconscious
cause of much merriment during
the evening.
The bewitchlng bride, little Jean
Mcdonald was picture 10 minia-
ture of the up-to-date bride and
the cunning groom, little Ward
Grantham captured all hearts.
The maid OF honor, little Evelyn
Harris, was a picture Of diminiu-
tive loneliness and the b st man,
little Jack Andrews, was darling.
Two of the beautiful little brides
mids wore blue and two pink and
all were charming. The ring
bearer, little Ida Nell Turner,
carried the wedding ring in the
heart of pink rose. Alex Nc
Donald as the parson acted his
part to perfection. Garbutt Mayes
and Ralph Russell were model
ushers and as master of ceremonies
Ralph was perfect.
Among "those present" we're
married couples having names of
national and local reputation,
blushing old maids, oashful bache-
lors and sweet debutantes.
Little Misses Martha Turner,
Athleen Dickey, Elizabeth Me-
Carly, Margaret Wise, Mildred
Hale, EVELYN Order and Masters
Will Fraser and Bobbie Strange
sang sweet love songs during the
ceremony.
According to custom, refresh
ments we're served the. assembled
guests by the young lady friends
of the bride and if the young
guests got more pleasure from
any part of the performance than
they did from the ice cream and
cake appearances were certainly
deceiving.
Those in charge of the little play
are to be congratulated upon its
remarkable success.

City Dads Meet.

Fitzgerald's august legislative
and administrative councils met at
the city hall Monday evening for
the disposal of such matters of
state, as the scribe David L. Paulk
and others may deem of sufficient
Importance to bring to their learn
ed attention for solution. The
usual fiscal budget, consisting of
the salary list of the officers and
incidental expenditure incurred
during the month was rapidly dis.
possed Of and various reports of
the heads of departments read and
received when the scribe read a
communication from the chairman
Of the police committee which
stated that the chief guardian of
the peace on two certain Sundays
did with malice and without the
consent Of any of the superior
officers OF the city, take half day
Oft, leaving no visible Substitute
in his place. The honorable
council was at loss to know
" hat punishment to il fict upon a
nlHD, who after seventeen years Of
continuous service On the police
force OF the city, should so far
forget himself as to deprive the
city of his valuable service for
SO short time and especially on
Sunday, when everybody is al
peace with the world. A motion to
dismiss the chief offender from
the service of the city was sup
ported by four councilmen and
equally stubbornly opposed by
four valiant defenders Of the self
confessed criminal. 1t became
necessary for the High chief, his
Honor Mayor Drew w. Paulk to
exercise his prerogative to unite
the tie, which he did very grace
fully. by stating that though the
officer evidently was off guard as
admitted, vet having served these
numbers of years faithfully anC
evidently so we'll that no more
serious charges could be made
against HIM, he voted to retain hi:
services.
Present at the meeting we're his
