\ The new city ordinance pro-

The new city ordinance pro-
hibiting the parking of automo-
biles in the center of Erie street
was put into effect Saturday
night. A number OF extra police
were put on to guide the traffic,
so there was very little con-
fusion. A car is allowed to stand
along the curb on Erie street just
long enough-to get their orders
from the stores or any other.
necessary business. The idea is
a good one, as Erie street is too
narrow to park the cars in the
center, but if the side streets are
to be used for parking it will be
necessary to have additional
lights or more police. AS it is, it
gives too great an opportunity
for stealing things out of cars or
even taking the cars themselves.

POTATOES.

j. w. E. Owens brought in a
half dozen new potatoes, dug
from his garden, which were
large enough for table use. If
all the patches in this vicinity
produce potatoes like these the
price will drop to zero this fall.
Nearly every back yard in town
has a potato patch of some sort,
all of which will help lower their
cost. Many haven't the room to
plant enough for their own use,
but if they even raise bushel,
that will give one more bushel to
the people in the city who have.
no place in which to plant gar
den of any sort. Investigation
has proven that the inflated
prices of foodstuffs, potatoes in
particular, was caused by specu-
lators buying up enormous guam
titles and storing them for out
fandish prices. A law should be
passed that the gambler in food
stuffs be imprisoned from one to
ten years for each offense and it
would have great tendency to
make the law of supply and de-
mand govern these things. Some
thing will have to be d,ne soon
or the people will take the rem
edy in their own hands and then
it will be too late to pass a law.

PHlLArnEA PARTY.

Mrs. DR.. H. i. Roberts proved
herself most charming hostess
last evening, when the Philathea
girls and several friends were
most royalty entertained at her
home at party in honor of Miss
Ruth McGayren, whose approach
ing marriage will soon take her
from their midst.
1t was to be a surprise to Miss
McGayren and one of the girls
being quite unaware of the fact,
accidentally informed Miss Nc
Gavren that the Philathea club
was meeting. that evening with
sIdabelle." Now, Peg knows
better than to go. to party when
she isn't invited, and it was only
latter very tricky deception on
the part of Miss Keitha Lit.,er
that she was finally persuaded to
runs up for a moment But the
moment was long enough, how
ever, for the awaiting crowd to
quite overwhelm her with sur
prise when the opportunity was
finally given them. Barely had

composure, when from the adj

remained spell bound and ere the.
last trembling note of the song
had died away, beautiful we'd
ding march broke forth and with
it the gorgeous wedding party
came, taking their places at the
center of the room beneath al
beautiful red wedding bell and a
bower of sweet smelling flowers.
The bride, Ruthie Meyers, wore
a beautiful gown of white mes
saline, with girdle of red crepe
de bunting and a long veil held in
place by wreath of sword plant
and crushed roses, and carried a,
bouquet of tall wheat and wild
grape vine. The groom, r.. A..
Martin, also of this city, wore the
conventional black full dress
suit.
Rev. H. Silsby read the beauti-
full lines of the impressive ring
ceremony, while the little Misses
Louisa Carlisle and Eletta Ew-
erett acted as ring bearers, and
Monsieur E. Greenee and Helene
Hoover were best man and brides
maid.
After the ceremony the friends
were invited to view the remains
and when congratulations had,
been duly extended the brides
bouquet was thrown, Miss Joy
Dewell being the fortunate one
in catching it.
The girls were then furnished
with writing material and asked
to write a short letter to Miss
McGavren, the same to be read by
her on her contemplated voyage
across the sea.
Some very touching lines of
poetry were next read, the same
having been written by the girls,
and Mrs. Howard Mansfield was.
Judged the most clever poetess
and rewarded with bottle of
exquisite perfume.
Later delicious refreshments
were served, following which Miss
McGavren was presented with a
beautiful remembrance from the
| girls, as well as their wishes for
many long and happy years Of
JOY for the bride -to-be.
