of the three interested parties
teacher, child, parent-must be
strengthened and extended.
In times past we have believed
that the school must concern itself
only with the child indeed that the
progress of our civilization; would
be secured, if our children were
trained. We now believe that to
educate adequately for citizenship,
we must in some way reach the
parent as well as the child. This,
they, would suggest the absolute
need of bringing the school closer
to the home. This need is being
met in a measure through a more
determined and systematic effort on
the part of the teachers and parents,
as we'll, to become each year more
intelligently acquainted with each
other.
! Important as all these features
are, they are as nothing compared
with the vitalizing touch Of the real
teacher. The soul, the spirit, the up
lift come from within, and the COM
munity wastes its substance, if it
does not demand that a good teach
er be put and kept in every school
room Of the city. The whole COM
munity should take an intelligent
interest in this question, for 1t IS
vitality important to the progress
and prosperity Of our schools Inc
education of the youth Of today is
the foundation of the go0d cltlzen'
ship of tomorrow. 1t is the pres
ent's insurance for the futures etti'
cient life.
President Charles W. Dabney, OF
the University Of Cincinnati, made
some investigations as to the con-
nection between education and
earning capacity. He found out that
the average earning capacity Of the
people Of a State is in direct proper
ton to the number of days OF school.

the schooling these people had while
they were growing up. That is the
State that provides good schools for
its children insures for these child
rem when they become men and
women, high earning capacity
and a high standard of living. In
other words, the least way to in
sure the future prosperity of any
country is to educate the boys and
girls of that country. The easiest
and most certain way to provide
poverty and squalor and crime in
future years is to let the children Of
today grow up unframed. This is
no more theory. One could say
without any great risk to the people
of a parish or a city. Tell me how
much a time and money you are
putting into the education Of your
children and l will tell you just
about what position the most Of
your children will hold in after life
and what their earnings and man
ner of living will be.
This, of course, is not necessary
true of individual children are OF
selected families, because the factor
of personality enters into such cases;
but when any great number OF
children are considered together and
averages struck, it will be found al
most invariably true.

southern families, for the eldest
daughter to be married in the we'd
ding dress of her mother. After
the dress has performed this second
service, it is preserved as an heir
loom by the family. Mother was
anxious that the old custom should
be adhered to in Mary's case. Ac-
cordingly, her magnificent wedding
dress, of white brocade silk combin-
ed with white satin of an almost
fabulous price, deliberately trimmed
with the richest and rarest lace of
its day, was taken from the cedar
chest where it had lain done up in
tissue paper, white wax, lavender,
and linen sheets for twenty years.
Fortunately it fitted Mary to per-
lection; not a single alteration was
necessary.
The evening of the twenty-eighth
arrived at last, and the finishing
touch had been given to the dining
room, which we had tastefully deco
rated and gayly festooned with the
bright berries and green leaves Of
holly, interspersed with mistletoe,
which grew in such wild profusion
around and about the plantation.
The table fairly groaned under its
load of delicacies and substantials.
Mother and father were stiff and
dignified in their best attire. We
girls had donned our best "bibs and
fuckers" and wore our brightest
smiles. The children were all be-
curled and decorated.
When the last touch had been
given to Mary's toilet, one could not
imagine a more lovely bride. Her
dress correspondent perfectly with
her rich southern beauty. Her long
raven black hair hung in abundant
natural curls over her exquisitely
nodded shoulders; her large dark
eyes and her clear magnolia COM
plexion harmonized we'll with the
antique style of her dress.
Orange blossoms we're an impos,
sibility at that time, so we substl'
tuted pure white camellias, and
made for her a wreath OF those
waxen beauties.
Chauncey Baldwin was tall, erect
brownbearded and bronzed, with
flashing steel-sray eyes. 1t was as
the mating of the eagle and the
dove.
! The bridal pair had no attendants
dresses suitable for the occasion
could not be procured at any price
at that period.

servants, Uncle Isaac, Nanny Rose

Buck, was punctual to the hour.

large folding-dooss dividing the
parlors were thrown open, and the
bridal couple advanced and stood
under the huge bell composed OF
the soft-toned mistletoe and its
silvery berries.
1t is said, All men are handsome
in military uniform, and all women
are beautiful in bridal robes" this
axiom is not true in all cases, but 1t
proved its truth in the case OF
Chauncey Baldwin and Mary Whar-
ton.
The marriage ceremony was the
most impressive | ever witnessed.
This being over, congratulations
we're offered and received with be-
coming grace.
There was no dancing on this
occasion; so after an hour or two
spent in pleasant, but subdued con-
versation and listening to some in
spring wartime music on the piano
supper was announced, and father
and mother led the way to the
spacious dining-room.
The table, laid in the form of a
huge cross, was soon surrounded by
the company, who displayed their
appreciation of the delicious viands
by the hearty manner in which they
partook Of them.
Uncle Isaac and William, in i'm
maculate aprons attended to the
wants of all. This felicitous state
of affairs had lasted an hour perhaps,
and everything was Going as merry
as marriage bell" when Uncle Isaac
came rushing into the dining-room
with distended eyes and wide-open
mouth, exclaiming "Marse Chauncey
you and men better be gitten' away
from here in a hurry, | hear cavalry
comm cross dat bridge, and no mis-
take!" Uncle Isaac's veracity was
too we'll established to be questioned.
With one hasty embrace of his
trembling wife, Colonel Baldwin and
his officers, who did not relish the
idea of being captured by the Fed
erals, bolted for the back gate, where
their horses stood in readiness for
an emergency. Vaulting into their
saddles, they were soon beyond the
reach of their would-be captors.
In a few moments the tramp of
horses and the clank of swords and
bayonets were heard on the avenue
leading to the house, in the twink
ling of an eye the house was SUR
rounded by Union cavalry belonging
to General Elects Brigade.
The officer in command was very
gentlemanly in his bearing, and
made honorable amends for his I'M
cermonious interruption of our fes-
tivities, by stating that he was only
"obeying orders"
After a futile search for Colonel
Baldwin and his men, and when the
members of the household had in a
measure regained our equinanimity,
father, with true southern hospitality
invited the Federal officers to par

We all sympathized heartily with

to part with her liege lord in E
