| knew you when the tenderest
thought.
Enwrapt your childhood's home
When paths were mapped for little
Where Love would have them roam
When all embracing faithful care
In "Wisdom's ways" were your to
share.
| knew you when in glad array
Well armed with books and slate
You hurried on to school, your goal,
Lest lettering made you late
And mar the powers of childish mind
Distinct in gifts of woman-kind.
I've seen you, daughter of the Home,
Where guests uncounted knew;
The opening door your greeting
brought
To many-nOt the few
Was welcome borne in good intent
That spring from Love Divinely sent.
I've marked the gentleness and zest
With which you gathered hosts;
Of friendly hearts, the worthy, good,
Made happier by your boasts
That ministries of Love to you;
Hat given Life a roster hue.
I've seen you when your fingers deft
Reused music to your will
And like a tide from unseen depths
There seemed imprisoned still
In tones of Sorrow, Hopes and Fears,
That came to me from other years.
But "WOman's lot" is on you dear

INVITATIONS.
( By far the most important event for
next week in point of interest is the
wedding OF Miss Mary Newman and
Mr.. f. V. Clark, TO take place at the

day. Rev. A. 4. Holloway will read
the service and Miss Newman has
asked to be her attendants, her sis

Worthington will play the wedding
music. On Wednesday evening Cap
tain and Mrs. ]. R. Newman will give
in honor of the wedding party, re-
ception at which a number of intimate
friends of the family have been asked
to assist. Amply proving that Miss
Newman is one of the most popular
brides that ever grew up in Harrison
are the many social events that have
been given complimentary to her the
past week.
Prominent among these is the af-
ternoon party given by Mrs. Jeffery

tiful decorations and unique ideas.
The Dixon home was transformed into
party array by lavish use of decora-
tions in a color scheme of red. The
light shades were red wedding bells,
festoOns of hearts were everywhere
and the table at which the honor
guests including Mrs. j. r. Newman,
the Misses Newman and Miss Dixon,
sat for their luncheon had for it's
central decoration a mirror wreathed
with southern smilax surmounted by
basket of red roses, the handle tied
with huge bow of red tulle, the red
tulle leading to the candlesticks at
the table corners. Mrs. James Reed
sang (My Lady Fair) and contest,
"a Floral Wedding" at which Mrs.
F. M. Garvin took the favor, was en-
joyed. Mrs. John E. Andrews read a
list of superstitions concerning we'd
dings and brides. At this juncture
way was made for dear little fairy
Miss Edna Jackson) in typical cos
tune and whom the honor guest de-
cided was very good fairy since she
bore in her gaily decorated little cart
such a wealth of beautiful linens, gifts
Of adoring friends. A luncheon of
exquisitely dainty appointments and
that charmingly bore out the deco
ratiVe scheme, was served by the
hostess, assisted by Mesdames Welch
and Lynn. The guests beside Miss
Newman were Mesdames John E.
Andrews, John Lynn, w. F. Gordon,
