Engagement Announced.

The engagement of Miss Le-
onora Gordon to Mr.. VIM. L.

a family known and loved by
many people of Lexington, where
DR.. Gordon was pastor of the

Der of years at two different pc
riods,
Mr.. Groves is one of Lexing-
toms most upright and active
citizens in the different phases
of the city's life. He is the as
sistant cashier of the Lexington
Savings Bank, which position
he relinquished at the beginning
of the war to enter the first Of
fcers' Training Camp at Camp
Funston. He was commissioned
first lieutenant and served two
years in the Quartermasters
Corps.
The wedding will take place
early in October,
