Miss Mary Alice Eaton, only daueh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Leonard Eaton
of Crescent City, and Mr.. George T..
Oglesby of Ladonia, Texas, were mar
ried in Quitman, Georgia. on Wednes-
day. December 9th, 1916, at 2:3O p.
m. by the Rev. DR.. Campbell, Pastor
of the First Presbyterian church of
Quitman.
The wedding was at home of Mr..
and Mrs. Robert B. Young. uncle and
aunt of the bride. where Miss Eaton
had been visiting for some two weeks:
the ceremony was witnessed only bv
the parents, and other immediate rel
atives, and a few close friends of the
contracting parties.
The Young home was beautifully
decorated with cut flowers, palms
and ferns, the latter being sent from
Florida by the grandfather of the
bride, Hon. J. H. Harp of Crescent
City, a we'll known pioneer resident Of
this section.
The bride was married in her trav
cling suit of plum colored broadcloth
trimmed in fur, which opened over a
blouse of plum colored Georgette
crepe embroidered with gold beads,
with hat to match, and she carried an
arm boquet Of violets and lilies of the
valley.
Miss Eaton was born and grew to
Young womanhood in Crescent CITY
where she is admired for her beauty
and known and loved for her many
admirable qualities. She has spent
the past two years in Palatka with
her aunt, Mrs. Richard F. Adams,
where she also has many friends.
Mr.. Oglesby is a native Georgian
and young man of sterling charac-
ter who is making success in the
cotton business in his adopted State
and is to he congratulated on winning
so fair bride.
Soon after the ceremony Mr.. and
Mrs. Oglesby left for a two weeks
trip to the resorts on the East Coast
of Florida. and after visiting friends
and relatives in this State, the Young
couple will 90 to Ladonia, Texas,
where they will make their home.

flesh and blood, but the senseless
thing of metal is petted and cared
for like fifty thousand dollar re-
source.
There is law on the statute books
of Florida that requires the SCREEN
ing of surface closets as guard
against typhoid fever. Another en-
actment requires that hotels and
boarding houses shall be screened
against the fly and mosquito, but it
has not been worded to protect the
workers in big industrial enterprises.
Is there not a bit of injustice here?
Under such a condition the only
chance for the workmen in these
mills is through the humanitarian in
stinct of the mill owner, or, if he is
lacking in sympathy, it must be
through his pocketbook. Dollars

CHRISTIANITY AGAINST
IMPERIALISM.
William Jennings Bryan.

If true Christianity consists in
carrying out in our daily lives the
teachings of Christ, who will say that
we are commanded to civilize with
dynamite and proselyte with the
sword? He who would declare the
divine will must prove his authority
either by Holy Writ or by evidence
Of special dispensation.
Imperialism finds no warrant in the
Bible. The command, go ye into
all the world and preach the gospel
to eve.y creature" has no Gatling
gun attachment. When Jesus visited
village of Samaria and the people
refused to receive him, some of the
disciples suggested that fire should
be called down from Heaven to avenge
the insult; but the Master rebuked
them and said: "Ye know not what
manner of spirit ye are of; for the
Son of Man is not come to destroy
mems lives, but to save them Sup
pose he had said: eve will thrash
them until they understand who we
are," how different would have been
the history of Christianity! Com
pare, if you will, the staggering,
bullying, brutal doctrine of imperial
ism with the golden rule and the
commandment, Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself."
Love, not force, was the weapon of
the Nazarene; sacrifice for others,
not the exploitation of them, was
His method of reaching the human
heart. A missionary recently told
me that the Stars and Stripes once
saved his life because his assailant
recognized our flag as flag that had
no blood upon it.
Let it be known that our mission
aries are seeking souls instead of SOW
ereignty; let it be known that instead
of being the advance guard of con-
quering armies, they are going forth
to help and uplift, having their loins
girt about with truth and their feet
shod with the preparation of the gos-
pei of peace, wearing the breast
plate of righteousness and carrying
the sword of the spirit; let it be
known that they are citizens of ma
ton which respects the rights of the
citizens of other nations as carefully
as it protects the rights of it's own
citizens, and the welcome given to
our missionaries will be more cordial
than the welcome extended to the
missionaries of any other nation.

DOLLAR BLINDNESS.


The shortest route to some mems
hearts is said to be through their
stomachs. To others, possibly a ma
iority, it runs by way of their pock-
cts.
The most effcient,-the only thor
oughly efficient,-laborer either with
mind or muscle, is the one who is IN
the best physical condition, the most
healthful.
On these two generalities rests
most important economic question
which has yet to be solved by many
large employers of labor in Florida;
although the solution is plain II not
easy. If the owners and operators
of big lumber plants, phosphate min
ing operations, and other large indus
tries, could figure out their losses, an
nually and regularly, from sickness
among their employees, they would be
startled, even shocked. Immediately
a reformation would start, the cause
would be hunted out and removed,
even though it would cost real money,
if the expense would be recognized
as wise investment. Like new and
important machinery for the mill. it
would save the cost in few months,
possibly a few weeks.
Manv of the large mill plants IN
Florida are surrounded by tenements
occupied by employees and owned by
the companies. Usually these houses
are built on simple and inexpensive
models, and there isn't much to them
but walls. roofs and windows. There
is no appeal to the aesthetic sense OF
those who are compelled to occupy
them, no trimmings, not even close
fitting door and window frames, and
rarely, if ever, screen.
Not many months since, big cor
poration in Florida-no matter what
part of the State,-crowded with Or
ders and running day and night, was
compelled to shut down its night shift
because of the prevalence OF malaria.
This amounted almost to an epidemic.
Conditions were favorable for the
breeding of the malaria mosquito.
The homes of the employees were un-
screened, loose-jointed structures, and
the mosquito had magnificent oppor-
tunities which she Immediately took
advantage of. Scores of cases and
some fatalities followed, and the en-
tire force was demoralized. The val
ne to the mill owners of lost time, of
lost productiveness, exceeded by hun
dreds of per cent what it would have
cost to screen every employees home
and make it habitable. 1t was pure
economic loss caused by the short
sightedness of the mill owner. Men
estimate the human machine at vast
ly lower value than the polished struc-
ture of steel and brass. They do
nothing to conserve the usefulness of

To Beautify South Park.

The ladies of the Village Improve
ment Association have invited the
men and boys of the town to meet
at South Park next Monday New
Years day. for the purpose of clean
ing up the park and making it into
the beauty spot intended by nature
and natures God, rather than the
eye-sore that man and mans careless
ness has permitted it to become.
The ladies believe that if the men
and boys of the place will turn out in
force the park can be cleaned and
made presentable in a few hours. 1t
is certainly, with its high banks bor-
dering the lake, and its oak shaded
undulating surface, pretty spot and
and ought to be one of Crescent
City'S chief beauty assets.
A picnic lunch will be served to all
workers who appear and the affair
itself will, as it should, be regular
picnic occasion.
Good luck to the ladies for the sug-
gestion. They ought to be met more
than half way with an army of men
and boys carrying rakeS and shovels
and axes.
And-the town council ought to get
after all the people who have usurped
the shore with unsightly barrels and
pumps and make 'em show cause why
the axes should not be used to demol-
ish these extra eye-sores. The park
belongs to the people of the town
all of 'em-not to a few, some of
whom have run their sewer outlets on
to the banks.
