Christening Celebration for
Camp Near Elmdale.

Whether the State Y. NJ. C. A.
camp on which 1900 boys will frolic

the chief subject for decision by the
executive committee of the Y. NJ. The
ground for the camp. $50 acres, was

tanned an active interest in the prog

Young SWEETHEARTS MARRIED

Mr.. Beale Cromer, member OF the
National Guard, came down from
Greenwood Saturday for a visit
home. While here he worked up
little surprise to his friends on a 70"
mantle scale. Accompanied by Miss
Annie Dunstan he left Nevberry Sun
day morning, for an automobile rloe
out into the country, his friends
thought, to be gone several hours per-
haps before their return. But the car
kept on going until Ninety Six was
reached, where and when Mr.. Gro
mer and Miss Dunstan proceeded
without further delay to get married.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. John G. Wilson, after which the
happy groom and bride left that town
and went to Greenwood, from which
place a message was sent to Newberry
conveying the interesting news OF the
marriage. Mr.. Cromer brought mis-
bride to Newberry Sunday night. He
left Monday morning, returning .
his company at Greenwood. Mrs"
Cromer is with her parents. The
groom, son of DR.. Geo. B. Cromer, ID
a young man whose loyal patriotism
led him TO volunteer in the service OF
his country at the first call. The
bride, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. JACK
Dunstan, is a. pretty and talented
young girl, who yields her all for her
country. The congratulations and
we'll wishes that are being sho"erea
upon the young couple are mingled
with sighs of regret that the two have
to be parted just after the very happy
wedding.

dict that the drawing will be carried
out within a few days.
Reports persisted today that the
numbers to be used would be placed
inI non transparent capsules and be
drawn from a glass receptacle by
Secretary Baker or some other war
department Official. There is no con-
frmation, however, and it was iadi-
Gated that there might be no an
nouncement until the eve Of the ac-
tual drawing.
The feeling here is that the federal
government now has done everything
possible that the burden of RESPONSE
bility for Fastening the selection Of a
war army rests entirely upon State
and local authorities.

stays proposed peace resolution,
which, according to the Berlin Tage-
blatt, a majority of the bloc Of the

cided Friday evening to introduce un-
changed on the reassembling of the
reichstag, reads as follows:
~As on August 4, 1914, so on the
threshold of the fourth year of the
war the German people stand upon
the assurance of the speech from the
throne I'VE are driven by no lust
Of conquest
Germany took up arms IN defense
of its liberty and independence and
for, the integrity Of its territories.
The reichstag labors for the peace
and mutual understanding. Forced
reouisition of territory and political
economic and financial violations are
incompatible with such a peace.
seThe reichstag rejects all plans
aiming at an economic blockade and
the stirring up of enmity among the
neople after the war The freedom OF
the seas must be assured. Only an
economic peace can prepare the
ground for the friendly association Of
the peoples. !.
