Thought for the Day

Thought for the Day
Not what we have, but what we use;
Not what we see, but what we choose,
These are the things that mar or bless
The sum Of happiness.
The things near by. not things afar;
Not what we seem, but what we are
These are things that make or break.
That give the heart its JOY or ache.
Not what seems fair, but what is true,
Not what we dream, but good we do
These are the things that shine like
gems,
Like stars, in Fortunes diadems.
Not as we take. but as we give;
Not as we pray, but as we live
These are the things that make for
peace,
Both now and after time shall cease.

Interesting Midsummer Wedding
OF interest to many in this city,
where the bride-elect has visited, will
be the following from the Tampa
Times:
A wedding which will be of much
interest to a wide circle of relatives
and friends, will be that of Miss Min
erva PARROT Hamblin, to Mr.. James
Hervey Letton, Jr., on the morning of
Wednesday, July II.
The marriage will occur at the home
of the brides parents, DIR. and Mrs.
Alva Curtis Hamblin, Suburb Beau
tiful, at $3.50 o'clock. No formal in
vitations are being issued, and only
the oldest and closest friends of the
family will attend the wedding with
relatives.
The marriage ceremony will be
pronounced by Rev. B. X. Thrower,
who was pastor of the First Meth
odist church when the bride-elect
was a little girl, and it was during
his pastorate that she became a mem
Der of the First Methodist church.
Miss Franklin Hamblin, the only
sister of the bride, will act as maid of
honor, with Miss Adeline Fuchs,
bridesmaid. Mr.. Lotions brother, Mr..
J. r. Letton, of Paris, KY, will be
best man, with Mr.. w. Bethel Gala
CHER, of Ocala, groomsman.
An informal reception is to follow
the wedding and the happy young
couple will leave on the noon train
for an extended wedding trip before
going to their future home in Ken
lucky.
Miss Hamblin is the younger
daughter of DIR. and Mrs. Hamblin,
one of the best known families in the
city. The bride-elect is a very talent
ed young woman, possessing charm
ing and attractive personality, and
she numbers her friends by her ac-
quaintances. She will be greatly
missed by all, but every good wish for
her happiness and success will follow
her to her new and distant home. Miss
Hamblin is a talented artist, and
member of the Students Art Club.
She is musician also and has taken
an active part in the music and art
circles of the city's social life. She
will quickly make many friends in
her new home and Tampa's loss will
be their gain.
Mr.. Letton is a successful young
business man of Kentucky. He was
for some time cashier of the First
National Bank of Jackson, three years
ago being made vice president of the
bank. He has also been honored as
president of the Kentucky Bankers
association. At present Mr.. Letton is
