of Glenns Store, near Rolly Hill,
were united in marriage at the study
of DR.. W. B. Kicks Monday afternoon
in the preesnce of few friends. Mrs.
Hampton went to the store Of AndeT-

The groom is 60 years of age and
the bride is SO years of age, but on
Monday afternoon they were as happy
and gay as they were when they
skipped down the spring path, happy,
barefooted sweethearts years ago. In
their early childhood they were sweet
hearts, grew up together as sweet
hearts, but after they had reached
the manageable age, a lovers quar-
rel took place and the sweethearts of
many years ago drifted apart, and
forty-one years ago Mrs. Shaw was
married to her first husband, Mr..
Hampton and Mr.. Shaw left for
Bloomfield, Mo-, and never returned
to his old home until after his child
hood sweetheart had become widow
and himself widower, and when he
came he came prepared to take back,
If not his blushing, his happy bride,

Both the bride and the groom have
four children each, but all are mar

ceremony for Bloomfield, Mo-, where
they will make their future home.

endeavor to bring back this guidon,"
he said "unsullied by defeat or dis
honor so that it may be placed with
the stars and bars of other regiments
as relic of which our people will
never be ashamed"
The guidon was red silk field on
which was embroidered in gold
crossed cannons with the regiment
number above and the battery letter
below.
The battery then marched to the
driveway in front of the academy Of
fee where all the men who did not
already possess comfort kits were
formed in a separate body to receive
the gifts of the ladies of Columbia.
The ice cream cones were first served
and then came the presentation of the
kits. Mrs. E. H. Hatcher, who has
spent much time and given many low
ing thoughts to this act of remem-
brance, said:
Captain Henderson, we want to
thank you for the reputation for gem
tlemanly conduct established by the
men of your command. l am sure
that you will be a credit to the SER
vice as you already are to your cap
tain. You are going to a new camp,
and on going there We ask nothing
more than that this reputation be sus-
tanned.
Men of Battery F, it has given US
sincere pleasure to make and furnish
these Comfort Kits for you, and we
hope you are going to enjoy using
them. We have watched with eager
interest your earnest hard work here
at camp, and now we ask you to re-
member always that we are ever
ready to help you in every way we
can for we love you and believe in
you and wish you God speed
The kits were handed to the men
by Misses Mary Wilkes Mckinney,
Charlotte and Rebecca Watson and
Lenora Williamson. They were made
by a number of patriotic women OF
the city, many of whom were present
to witness the presentation.

Gifts of vegetables, fruits and other

MRS. RATCH{R'S PRESERVATION
Convenient Outfit Given To Men BY
Women Of CoIumbia-Change in the
Hours Caused Many Spectators to
Miss Ceremony.

The hearts of the men of Battery
F were made glad and thrills Of pa
triotism were projected through the
hearts of the spectators Thursday
afternoon when guidOn was present
ed the battery by the citizens OF
Franklin and later comfort kits were
given to each member who did not
already possess one. Ice cream cones
were also served to the men after the
completion of work on the hot drill
ground.
A change in the hours for the pre-
sensations caused the crowd of spec
tators to be Somewhat smaller than it
would have been otherwise. 1t was
announced that the comfort kits
would be presented at 4 o'clock and
the flag at five, but the arrival OF the
Franklin committee early in the af-
ternoon caused the program to be
changed so that they could return
early, and the flag was presented at
3:45, with the presentation OF the
comfort kits following at the hour
scheduled. Seventy-five or more per-
sons from. Franklin and Williamson
county accompanied the committee to
Columbia and formed the principal
part of the crowd that witnessed the
presentation of the guidon on the drill
ground Immediately after the COM
pany completed it's afternoon drill.
The Rev. A. C. Kilheifer, rector OF
St. Paul's Episcopal church, Franklin,
was chairman of the committee and
introduced Hon. j. F. Eggleston, the
spokesman of the citizens of Frank
lin. In a short address, Astounding in
brilliantly patriotic passages, DR.. Eg-
gleston said that he brought a mes
sage from the people of Williamson
county expressing their appreciation
and love for the men of Battery r
and to present to them an ensign that
was emblematical of undying honor.
I'VE believe that you will bring back
this flag emblazoned by the glory of
your adventure and hallowed by the
achievements you have left behind"
said Mr.. Eggleston. He said that IN
its infancy the nation was baptized by
the blood of Tennesseans, their blood
was shed under the leadership OF An
drew Jackson at New Orleans, in the
Mexican war they were heroes and on
+ an hundred battlefields of the Civil
] War they were in the forefront. This
year they will show the world that
American manhood has valor suffi-

Count The Spring Birds
They Aid Preparedness

eff you would know the value of
the game law in conservati ton work,
count the number and variety of
birds in the vicinity of your home,
this spring, then compare the re-
suits of your Investigations with
conditions as you remember them
few years ago." is the seasonable
suggestion of State Fish and Game
Commissioner William A. Logue, of
Bridgeton, who is deeply interested
in educating the public to the import
.ance of bird life to agriculture and
it's direct relation to the food prob
lem.
Commissioner Logue declares that
a foreign army, invading and crush
ing any section of our nation, could
create no greater loss and suffering
than would result from the destruc-
ton of the American bird army of
defense that constantly protects farm
crops and forests against hordes of
invading insects. He quotes U. S.
Agricultural reports to show that
the damage now done by insects
amounts is over $1,000,000,000 year.
"a conquering invader could scarce
hope to levy such tax upon Ameri
can resources as the insects take
every year." says the commissioner.
every increase in bird life reduces
this gigantic loss. Bird protection is
therefore, in peace or war, one of the
fundamental elements of prepared
ness.
"Since New Jersey began to enact
and enforce laws for the protection
of wild life, there has been a notable
increase in the kinds and numbers of
wild birds, as well as in the amount
of wild game and fish. Similar en-
actments by adjacent states and more
recently the adoption of federal regu
lations along the same lines have help
ed to make the feathered army larger
and able to more successfully cope
with the insect foes of farmer and
forester. New Jersey has the salts
faction of knowing that it was one
