On Friday afternoon, the 18th of
July, the lovely home of Mr.. Fl. w.
McKie was thrown open from four
to six, the occasion being a miscel-
laneous shower given by Mrs. Nc
Kie for the popular young bride,
Miss Matte Lanham of Ropers.
The guests were met by Misses
Lena and Minnie Lanham and in
yited into the spacious parlor, where
we found our hostess and the tar
young honoree amidst a bower OF
roses and ferns. Music and con-
~versation prevailed for a short time.
The bride was then led to a beauLl-
fully decorated bay window of the
parior, where she graciously recelv-
ed the many beautiful gifts brought
in by little Florence Mckie and
Mary Bunch, nieces of the BRIDE.
The BRIDES book was taken to
each guest by little Miss Fannie
Wells, where each n present ex-
pressed a happy wish forsthe future
of Miss Lanham. Delicious ices
and cakes were served by Misses
Eva Adams, Minnie Lanham and
Lena Lanham. Mrs. w. G. Wells
pinned on the hand-painted souve-
Mrs in which the cupid's idea was
carried out in darts. With reluc-
lance we babe farewell to our charm

was spending a few days with Mrs.
McKie.

! Base ball has become of great in

have a splendid team. Golfers
played Ropers on Saturday last on
Ropers' diamond. Two games were
, played, Golfers winning both games.
On Saturday afternoon, July ~,
/ Golfers will play Ropers on the new
athletic grounds Of the Golfers
school. Ice cream will be sold for
the benefit of the base ball team.
Many improvements are being
made or our school building and
grounds. The building is being
newly painted. With new and
modern apparatus inside we will
have a nice school building. The
grounds have been laid off for ath-
letics-a base ball diamond, a ten
mis- court and other exercises. Now
if we can get the ladies to organize
and beautify it with flowers and
hedges we will begin to think we
are in a town.
