MISS HERZFELD AT
MYSTIC BALL.

Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. J. EIkan and their
niece, Miss Clara Herzfeld, of Selma,
Ala, are among those from Pensacola
who attended the Mystics beautiful
ball, "When Knighthood was in Flow
er," which took place on Monday eve
ming in Mobile. Miss Herzfeld, who
has been the guest of Mr.. and Mrs.
Elkan for some time, possesses much
charm of manner, which, added to
her beauty and vivacity, make her a
favorite wherever she goes, and she
was one of the most popular girls at
the ball, of which the Mobile Register,
in part, says:
The Mystics chose most beautiful
subject for their annual ball given at
the Battle House, and in the carrying
out Of their subject romance and
poetry and history were so artistically
and exquisitely interviewer that their
favored guests were enraptured at
the beauty of their tableaux, the
splendor of their costumes, and the
lavish hospitality of King Henry VIII
who, with the assistance of his cour-
tiers, made the "faire ladyes"-one
and all-wistfully sigh and say
"Would that we might live always in
the days of When Knighthood was in
Flower"
Before entering the auditorium the
favored guests of the Mystics passed
thrG$-h an arch of bamboo anC
roses, a big M-the monogram of the
| society-just above the arch, beins
surmounted by crown, indicating
that royalty was entertaining. Tht

the castle and graceful festoons O

court and their chosen guests treat
the stately and enhancing figures o
the dance after the tableaux.

The Value of Brevity

Some philosopher asserts that a
verse may find him whom a sermon
flies-or words to that effect. Also
we remember the story of the profes-
sor of rhetoric who was going over
a very flowery composition of a stu
dent to point out its defects and after
reading a sentence would ask the
student in plain simple words if he
did not really mean just this and that
and when the boy admitted it the
teacher would strike line through
the wordy phrases and remark "Then
say So"
Volumes of epigrams have been
written and remembered while libra
ries of essays and profound SER
mons have been forgotten.

For these are wonderful days and
times in which we live, and life seems
like some small leaf ought in the
eddy of vast whirlpool "Whither,

can solve it. Our glorious Past is
gone from US, if not forgotten. But
always we have the Present-Life for
today, and Life is action. And when

reminded of Marietta these days and

no strength left for the steep climb
when they reach the mountains. With
so much beauty and historic interest

seems too bad that our famous noun

and more widely advertised. Now
that Marietta is waking up from her

it is to be hoped that some one will

the city and nearby towns. In that
way the street cars derive a greater
revenue, and city jewellers and the
public generally are benefited by
fresh air and a change of environ
ment. What says the Chambers of
