nellie Jones.

Elaborate Shower for Miss
nellie Jones.
Mrs. J. Steven Scurry and Mrs.
James Hart, Jr., entertained on
Thursday afternoon, May the sixth,
in honor of Miss nellie Jones, whose
marriage in June is of interest to a
very wide circle of friends, as Miss
Jones has been most popular visitor
not only in many southern states, but
has graced numerous brilliant func-
tions over the Mason and Dixon line
Receiving with the two young
hostesses were Mrs. James B. Tomp-
kins, Mrs. James Hart, Sr., and Mrs.
B. B. Jones.
Mrs. Hart, Jr., wore charming
blue taffeta with touches of dark
red wool embroidery on bodice and
skirt. Mrs. Scurry's gown of brown
beaded georgette over bronze
green was most becoming.
Mrs. James n. Tompkins' dress
was of flesh georgette, most elab-
orately embroidered with designs of
beads. Mrs. Hart, Sr., with a hand
some black georgette.
Mrs. Jonesf costume of blue taffe-
ia had modish trimming of self
toned ostrich tips.
The guests registered in the
brides book presided over by Mrs.
Gerald LaGrone. In this artistic book
is being kept mementoes of the many
happy occasions which mark the en-
gagement Of the attractive bride
elect, beginning with the lovely an
nouncement party given at Converse
College where Miss Jones, as a stu
dent and member of the 'baby' fac
ulty, was most popular.
The reception hall and living room
were fragrant with masses of pink
roses arranged in Louis baskets, with
airy tulle bows on their graceful
handles.
The honorae and Miss Elise Lake,
who is to be the maid of honor at the
marriage, were pictures of loveliness
in their place of honor-a draped
divan-between two windows, on
whose sheer drapery pink rose buds
were caught, harmonizing with the
masses of pink roses used so pro-
fusely in he-decorations. Miss Jones
exquisite toilette was a foundation
of jade chiffon, draped with pink
lowered chiffon, with this was worn
a picture hat of similar exquisite ma
terials and jade satin slippers.
Miss Elise Lakes blond beauty
was enhanced by her costume of blue
Barnoit satin, with which was worn
"a charming white satin hat and white
kid slippers.
After the guests assembled a rub
Der of bridge was enjoyed, at the con
.clusion of which, Miss Sadie Minis
sounded the familiar notes of Lohen-
,grin's wedding march.
Down the reception hall and into
the brides presence came little Miss
Emily Dozier Tompkins-a vision of
childish beauty in her exquisite hand
made frock. In her hands she held
:aloft transparent parasol, each
spoke wrapped in soft white tulle.
From the parasol were suspended
the many gifts with which the bride
was literally showered.
These gifts included beautiful
silken embroidered lingerie, hand
embroidered towels, exquisite madei-
ra handkerchiefs and other dainty ar
ticles.
After the delightful shower of
gifts, delicious sweet course was
served, consisting of apricot block
cream with pink layer cake.

ANIMAL KILLED
ON FARM NEAR TROY

Harold Frisk, a farmer residing a
short distance northeast of Troy, re-
gently killed an animal which had all
his neighbors guessing as to what ii
was. 1t put in its appearance about
his barn and was such an oddly that
it even had Mr. Frisk's chickens run
ming in all directions Noticing a
cOmmotion about his barn yard he
FASTENED to the scene and upon seeing
the queer-looking beast he lost on
time in getting his rifle. After putting
bullet through a vital spot of its
body he cautiously examined it, but
it was still Dutch TO him. Neighhors
had never seen anything like it, so he
was left in the dark as much as ever
Finally he skinned the animal which
measured about Is inches from tip to
tip and stood about ten inches high.
Simon Johnson was told about the
strange animal Mr.. Frisk had killed,
and when he saw the hide nicely
stretched over board he recognized it
as his Angora cat, which he had miss
ed from his place for several days.
What made the cat look so odd was
the long hair which covered its body
from one end to the other 1t has
not been decided whether the joke is
on Simon or Harold, but the people in
that community had a good laugh
over the incident-Troy News.

are missing. 1t is believed he rolled
from the mountain side into one OF
the deep canyons, which are numer-
Gus in that rough country.
Gone Since February e.
Kelly has been missing since Feb
ruary 2. He had been in the employ
of Mr.. Wyatt only four days.
Ed Wyatt, who headed party OF
searchers, discovered the band OF
sheep, which Kelly was intrusted
with herding, undisturbed, but the
man and one dog were gone.
While belief is expressed by some
at Whitebird that Kelly may have
suddenly decided to quit his job, with
out even stopping to collect his wages
and say goodbye, it also is argued
that Kelly could not have left the
country without someone having seen
him. A general alarm was sent out,
but nowhere could any person be
found who had seen the missing man
since February 2.
Country Very Rugged
The country in which Kelly was
herding the sheep is extremely rug
ged with precipitous canyons extend
ing hundreds of feet down the noun
tain sides. 1t is pointed out that he
could have slipped and rolled into
one of the canyons What has be-
come of the dog is as much a myst-
cry as is the disappearance of Kelly

will be shipped without orders. This
means that car will not be shipped
from the factory until sold. This
step was necessary in order to prevent
some agents from ''hogging" the
supply. They cannot buy cars and
hold them to the exclusion of actual
purchasers through other agents. If
any one wants a Ford car now they
must give the order for future de-
livery. Mr.. Sullivan urges all who

TRAINING SCHOOL
 HAS ENROLLED 2ll

The district training school for Sunday school and other Christian workers has enrolled 211 students for study in it's six departments, it was stated today by Rev. c. M. Reyes, pastor of the First Methodist church, where the school is being held. h. structors in charge say that the school is the best they have witness ed, from the double standpoint of en- rollment and interest aroused A fact gratifying to officials of the church is that the enrolment represents every Protestant denomination in the city. All classes have manifested splendid interest and have carried forward their work with enthusiasm
 Two courses offered at the school will be of especial interest to the gen. eral public, Rev. Reyes said. Two study periods each night are led by Dr. Paul B. Kern of Dallas, whose al life. His course is said to be of unusual excellence. The classes in ad- ministration and organization taught by M. W. Brabham of Nashville have proved of great interest. MT. Brab- hams range also covers work in rural Sunday school and study of the movement of rural population toward the cities. Under the schedule for the school, brief devotional service comes after lunch at p. m. Devo- tions are concluded at $40 and a re- citation period observed until 7:30 when an intermission is set aside for recreation. The final recitation per iod is from 7:50 to $40.
 Severe weather conditions Monday and Tuesday caused the only dis appointment met by the schools. Min isters and workers from the district were unable to reach here and as at- tendance on 10 of the l2 recitation periods Is required before certificates are granted, the only delay will vir- tually destroy the value of the school to them. A considerable attendance from over the Conway district was expected, but only about 12 made the difficult journey over country roads to reach here.
 On account of the school, the mid week prayer service tonight has been cancelled.
