Beautiful Home Wedding
Near Mccormick.

On Wednesday the 18th of April,
promptly at four. o'clock, in McCor-
mick county at the home of Mr..
Bart Talbert was the sequel of a
quiet but lovely marriage. The con-
tracing parties were MI. E. ]. Mil
ler and Miss, Marie Talbert, the eld-
est daughter of Mr.. Bart Talbert, the
Rev. P. B. Lanham officiating.
Immediately after the ceremony the
bridal party motored down to Edge
field to Mr.. Joe Miller's where Mr..
and Mrs. E. ]. Miller will be at home
to their friends until Mr.. Miller COM
pletes his modernly constructed
home which is now under good head
way. The party arrived at Mr.. Joe
Miller's at eight o'clock and were
met at the gate by few friends and
relatives who extended hearty wel-
come to the bridal couple. Then they
were escorted into the reception
room which was brilliantly lighted,
giving pomp and splendor to the oc-
casion.
The bride wore a dark blue coat
suit which was very becoming to her
brunette beauty. In few minutes
after entering the parlor, all were
ushered into the dining room where
there was bountiful spread, served
in three courses. The courses were
not all served in silver or china, as
sometimes the case, there was moth
ing princely neither very primitive
about the ware, but the contents
were superb. Fruit, chicken and po-
tato salad, saratoga chips, turkey and
chicken, all baked to beautiful
brown, cakes, iced tea and ice cream.
Then came the ring cutting. Miss
Fannie Wells cut the ring, Miss
Marion Miller cut the dime. Then all
repaired to the parlor where we had
some music by three young music
scholars, acquiting themselves well
and giving credit to their teacher,
Mrs. D. t. Mathis, Jr., who followed
them with some beautiful renditlons
and was enjoyed so much that she
was called on again, and OF course
she courtesied, and just then musl-
cal tone was heard from the clock
on the mantel letting everybody
know midnight had arrived.
All rose to their feet and were
homeward bound.

In Memory of Mrs. John Nc

After intense suffering for several
weeks, Mrs John McGee died at her
home near Cleora, April L. 1920, and
was laid to rest at Berea church the
following day. Mrs. Mc(iee was a
true Christian woman, always kind
and thoughtful of others. Few have
to suffer as she did, but she bore it
patiently. Just few days before her
death she told her loved ones not to
grieve for her. "It is well with my
soul."n
The casket was covered with
many beautiful flowers from loving
friends. The sympathy of the entire
community goes out to all her
loved ones and may they be brought
nearer to her God through the life
that she has lived.
A FRIEND.

Summer Chautauqua.

Edgefeld is to have this year what
every town should have--a summer
chautauqua. 1t will be given by the
Radcliffe System May IL, IL and Ii.
The programme will be varied so as
to afford pleasant and profitable en-
tentainment for all ages. High-class
entertainment, such as chautauquas
furnish, is helpful to every commu-
nifty and is always worth more than
the cost. We trust that the people OF
Edgefeld and adjoining communities
will give the local managers or guar
antors of the chautauqua their full

Fight Garden Pests.

Spray with solution made of R
ounce of Arsenate Lead powder, l
inch cube of laundry soap, 1 gallon
water. The arsenate of lead kills the
worms, while the soap aids to make
the lead stick to the plant and aids to
destroy some of the eggs Of the pest.
Since the cabbage head grows from
the inside, there is no danger in the
use of this treatment, however, for
safety, stop using the spray three
weeks before harvest of the cabbage.
If the cabbages are sprayed now,
there will be very few worms later
on in the season.

Chrlst's Personal AppearQnce

From the dust of more than 1900 years a
studlous modern Roman has rescued pen-por-
trait of Jesus Christ. It was drawn in one Of
the letters that Publius Lentulus, who was a
Roman proconsul in Palestine and knew the
Savior in Nazareth, wrote to friend in Italy:
There has appeared here man of strange
virtues" Publius Lentulus wrote. "His dis
cples call him The Son of Cod He cures the
sick and raises the dead to life. He is very
handsome man and worthy of all our atten-
ton. His hair is blond and covers his shoulders
after the fashion Of the people of Nazareth.
His forehead is smooth and serene, without
marks or wrinkles; his couiltenanee is pink; his
nose is we'll formed; his beard, of the same
color as his hair is parted in the middle.
I'm his gaze is an expression of wisdom and
OF openness; his eyes are blue, but shine ter
ribly when he reproves people: but in conversa-
ton they amable. His observations are ex-
pressed with liveliness although he always re-
mains calm. Nobody has ever seen him laugh
but he often weeps. Of good height and
straight figure, he has very beautiful hands and
arms. His manner of speaking is serious. He
speaks but little, and is modest. In short, he is
as handsome as man may be. They call him
Jesus, the Son of Mary"
Expert antiquarians and students of history
pronounce the letters of Publius Lentu1us to be
entirely genuine. For centuries they were for
Rome. The advent Of Christians brought the
letter quoted to the mind of an old professor
here. He translated it into modern Italian and
sent it to some of his learned friends as his
torical curiosity. 1t seems to verify the belief
that the Savior had a fair complexion and light
hair as many old artists depicted hirn.-New

NOT NOVEL, BUT PROPHETIC.

On Thursday of this week great industrial
enterprise will inaugurate its active life by a
public reception to Omaha citizens. There is
nothing particularly novel in this, for such
things have been done before. 1t does hold
some element of interest, though, because of
ths nature OF the undertaking. A few years ago
macaroni factory was started in Omaha, with
no especial flourish of trumpets, just an estab-
lishment to manufacture into food the -four of
the durum wheat that grows so abundantly in
Nebraska. How that unobtrusive start has ex-
panded into an institution that is known all over
the land need not be recounted. nor would it be
referred to, save that out of it has grown an
other food factory, great plant for turning the
raw product of the pastures and feed lots of
the state into edible merchandise. Nebraska's
wealth rests finally on the food it produces, for
which the demand will never be less than it is
now, as the world is always growing and the
mouths to be fed are becoming more and more
numerous. That Omaha is destined to be an even
greater center of milling and meat packing must
be plain even to the dullest. The opening of
the Skinner packing plant is on more ostcn-
tatious scale than was the starting of the
macaroni factory, but merely as it exemphes
the progress made. 1t is prophetic, too, of the
coming day. when other mills and packing
houses will be in operation, turning the grains
tributary to Omaha into products for the table.
In this is contained the secret of the city's
present and the hope for its future greatness,
and both are we'll founded. The new packing
plant is an emblem of progress.

Mr.. Bryan's Memoirs.

Mr.. Bryan's statement that he contemplatcs
making permanent record of what he has
tried to accomplish for the American people
and the world, during the thirty years in which
he has been active in public affairs, will be re-
ceived with pleasure both by his friends and
those who have opposed his energetic career
since he first became known to the country as
'the boy orator of the Platte"
From the day of his cross of gold and
crown of thorns speech Mr.. Bryan has been a
conspicuous figure in the tide of national events
one of the few men capable of filling the
imagination of large portion of the people
and persuading them to his way of thinking.
Although several of his most ardently pressed
political tenets were rejected by his country
men, nobody will be disposed to regret the
satisfaction he feels IN seeing nearly every re-
form he has advocated written into the unre-
pealable laws OF the land"
The memoirs of William Jennings Bryan will
make an interesting contribution to the his
tory of American politics, and in Nebraska
there are democrats whose achievements are
mediocre compared with his, who are doing all
in their power to force him into the retirement
where he will have nothing TO do but sit by his
freside and write "reminiscences.

A Time to Pay Debts and Save.

Thrift counts for most in times when money
is plentiful and prices are high, such as we
are in the midst of now. It is a particularly
profitable time to pay off indebtedness of all
sorts, because surplus funds are more easily
earned now than under normal money condi-
tions.
The same economy that enables the debtor
to relieve himself affords the opportunity to
invest surplus with the certainty Of large
profits. A thousand dollars now is required to
buy the necessities that could be purchased for
5000 FIVE years ago. In another four or five
years, or as soon as prices get back to prewar
figures the thousand dollars saved now will
have 40 per cent more purchasing power than
at present.
Ninety days ago man considering the pur-
chase of speculative stock to the amount of
$4,000 on the assurance that it would advance
forty points in the next four years, was told
by his banker that he could do as we'll without
risk by putting currency to that amount in his
safety deposit box and letting it remain there
four years, because of the increased purchasing
power his money would have by that time

@From Berlin to Bagdad" Once More.

That corridor of which we heard SO much
while the fighting was in progress seems 10
have a political as we'll as commercial aspect
and the Berlin to Bagdad route is one of in
tsigue as much as railroads. In Paris and
Washington alike astute observers see con-
nection between the upheaval in Germany and
he unrest in Turkey.
German influence was and is paramount in
the Turkish army, so that whatever affects jun
kerdom in one country may have its echo in
the other. The declaration of Prince Flas set
ting up q separate state to be composed Of
Syria, some parts of Palestine and few ad-
jacent sections is of minor importance, save as
symptom. When the settlement of the near
eastern question was brought up before the ST.
preme council, France was accorded 'pecu-
liar interest" in Syria, and while no mandatory
issued, it has been understood that France
would have a paramount influence there.
Hedjaz is under British influence, and when its
crown prince sets himself up in Syria without
lesve or license from France, he is putting con-
siderable strain on the friendship between the
powers, or else they know what is going on
and acquiesce IN it. The Anglo-Persian treaty
has not yet disclosed its full purport, beyond
the accepted fact that it establishes a British
psotectorate over Persia. Already British capi-
til is at work extending railway lines and max
INC other improvements in the shah's kingdom.
II the proposed peace with Turkey takes its
anticipated course, English influence will un-
doubtedly prevail over German, and western
Asia will come under the tutelage of Great
Britain America might have shared in this, as
Turkey would have been assigned to US had we
shown any willingness to accept the response

ever. although we will not be permitted to

The Worlds Greatest Mischief Maker.


If it were the presidents avowed purpose to
qualify as the worlds greatest mischief maker,
his recent utterances might easily be UNDER
stood. He has insul.ed and angered the glorious
patriots of France by charging them with I'M
periasm because they are seeking to protect
themselves against a vengeful and vicious
enemy, while his own administration is the only
one in the world proposing large increases in
its naval and military establishments. Every
body everywhere who doubts his omniscience
and superlative wisdom, or who hesitates to
obey his arrogant demands, he accuses by in
ference, if not directly, of evil intentions. He
has been maladroit both at home and abroad,
and so offensive even to his own party that its
official representatives in both houses of con-
gress would abandon him-to stew in his own
jntolerance-were it not for desperate desire
to save their party from the complete wreck
to which he invites it. The New York Tribune
states the case exactly, in the following words:
Instead of returning physical vigor soften
ing the presidents weaknesses of temper, his
unreasoning acerbity seems to grow.
The net effect of the presidents
diplomacy, in both its secret and public
aspects, is to bring almost to extinction the
high hopes the world entertained eighteen
months ago. His activities at Paris and since
have relighted the fires of the old jealouses
and discords. He says he does not like the
old order, but he has perpetuated it.
1t is not as crusader for peace that there
is world objection to the president, but as
fomenter of bad feeling, and thus of war.
