Charming Party Given by Mrs.
L. B. Jones and Mrs. A. I.
Samuel.

Scarcely is there ever recorded a
more unique party than the one
given on May the twenty-frst by
Mrs. L. B. Jones and Mrs. A. 7. Sam
uel, at the spacious colonial residence
of Mr.. and Mrs. B. B. Jones on Main
Street.
The occasion was planned in hon
or of the bridal party of Mr.. and Mrs
Braxton Bragg Jones, whose mar
riage occurred February II, 1895,
and the lovely daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jones, whose marriage to Mr..
Thomas Lawrence Nicholson OF Chi
cago is to be consummated June 3rd'
The resident members of Miss
Jones' bridal party and the husbands
and wives of the 1895 bridal party
were included in the guests on this
interesting evening.
Mr.. and Mrs. L. B. Jones, Mrs. A.
T. Samuel and Mr.. Ralph Jones re-
ceived in the wide hall.

Possibly in all the pages of Miss

Jones' wedding memories there will
be no more treasured one than that
on which her parents wedding party
registered-just as they stood on
the memorable 9th of February,
1S95-:while on the opposite page,
their husbands and wives registered.
The 1895 bridal party record was
as follows:

green everywhere. The cattle and
chickens had just been released from
their long snow bound winter quar-
ters and were happily partaking OF
the grass as the snow had but recent
ly disappeared.
The people of New England are as
charmingly hospitable as our own
Southern people are. The only lack
north or south is the difficulty of Sc
curing sufficient help in doing the
household work. People are alike
everywhere and the spirit of hospi-
tality which is taught in the Scrip
lures and is Christian grace, be-
longs to those who love the Lord
whether of the North or South, East
or West, of all creeds and tongues.
The end of this Perfect Day was
the journey of twelve hours from
Littleton to New York. This time we
selected still another route, coming
down the Connecticut river through
the mountains of New Hampshire on
one side and the mountains of Yer
mont on the other, sometimes travel
ling in one state and sometimes in
the other, enjoying the mountain
scenery until we were about half
way down the length of central Mas
sachusetts. At Springfield we made a
change to the New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad and as the
darkness gathered came into the
great metropolis of New York.

generation. At the foot of this noun
tain is a large hotel and cottages
surrounding, one of them replica Of
Mount Vernon. The state of New
Hampshire has recently gone to the
expense and trouble of putting re-
endorsements and iron bars through
the granite that supports this face,
that no time or storm may mar its
future beauty and symmetry.
Another time of great pleasure
to me was when we drove out to the
different places of interest where my
relatives had lived. The old home is
still standing where my grandmoth-
er, Lydia Gle was born and from
which she came to South Carolina.
This home was built one hundred
and ten years ago and is in a perfect
state of preservation in every way,
typical of the early New England
home with no front porch, several
stories high and everything under
one roof, the home and covered sheds
adjoining for carriages, sleighs, farm
implements and cattle so that in WIN
ter the family wont have to go out of
the house. l noticed that everywhere
on the farms, or in most places, this
was the case. The barns were larger
than their homes and you
could see the name of the farm such
as "Brookside," always over the
barn very large and conspicuous. The
home would be connected with this
by a covered way or built together.
This looked very queer to me, as we
have our barns as far from the
house as we can get them.
was interested in the maple or
chards, one of which my cousin, Mrs.
Weller owned, and from which the
syrup for this season had already
been made. One tree had made this
spring one gallon of syrup, which
they said was large quantity. This
extraction of the syrup or sap as 1t
is at first, does not injure the tree
and they are tapped for an indefinite
number of years at the proper sea,
son. I was told that they use or sell
the syrup for which there is great de-
mand and not so much sugar is made
as formerly, but during the war they
were not so deprived of sugar as we
because in emergency they coulo
make and use the maple sugar. l tolc
them we used maple syrup for sugar
during the war, and they said if il
was bought even in Boston the New
Hampshire maple syrup was hardly

recognizable, so adulterated did it
become. soon had this fact demon
strated to me, when my cousin
brought in some real maple syrup
from her farm near by. 1t is of a
darker color and much thicker than
the Log Cabin Maple syrup so extern
sively advertised.
We visited the old cemetery in the
meadow, as our cousins expressed
it, and there l saw the graves of my
great grandmother and father, Lydia
Clement and John Gile, who were
among the early settlers and builders
of this beautiful mountain town. We
visited another cousin, Mrs. Martha
Gile Lewis, who told US some interest
ing stories in connection with the
ealy days. Our home was with the
dear cousins, Mr.. and Mrs. R. T. Gile
who have promised to come and
make US visit next spring. They ex-
pressed fear at coming South as late
as May, but if the weather continues
as cold as it is now they might safely
remain until June in South Carolina.
One day of our stay in New Hamp-
shire was spent with Mr.. and Mrs.
Sleeper, at Lancaster, about twenty
miles north east of Littleton, taking
lunch and dinner with these hospita-
BILE friends whom had never seen. In
fact, from Washington to Boston and
to the most distant point we visited
and back again to Washington, I did
not see the face of any person l had
ever seen before.
The serving of meals was of great
interest because we were always
ready for the time to come, and
everything was surprise to US.
There is as much equipment in the
Northern kitchen as in the business

wonder the women can accomplish

Florence said to me one day Chow is
it that in all the cooking, there is
never failure on any article of food?
Each thing served is complete sue
cess.
In the afternoon at Lancaster we
were taken out across the Connecti-
river on which the town is located,
into Vermont and saw there beau
tiful view of this lovely clear river,
the mountains and the town nesting
between. All the rivers in New Eng
land are so clear that you can see the
reflection of everything which is
above. The banks are low, the water
being in touch of the hand from eth
er side, and the grass a beautiful

ranged as a smoker for the gentle
men and they were requested to
write advice for the groom of 1920,
while in the east parlor opposite, the
ladies were writing advice for the
bride elect.
The reading of all this sage advice
occasioned much merriment. Mr..
Lovick Smith was awarded the tro-
ply for writing the best advice from
the gentlemen and Mrs. Lovick
Smith was given the prize for giving
the best advice among the ladies.
An attractive program had been
arranged, including among the mu-
sical numbers, "Love's Old Sweet
Song," sung as solo by Miss Clara
Sawyer, of Johnston.
The dances of little Miss Winks
Bailey and Miss Elise Lake were ex-
quisitely graceful and, as always, re-
celVed many encOreS.

ed the souvenirs of the evening
quaint little colonial couples, dane
ing the stately minuet, for each lady
and friendly pipes to the gentlemen.
Mrs. ]. H. Cantelou and Mr.. N. M.
Jones, maid of honor and best man
at the marriage of 1895, presented
a beautiful framed photograph of
this bridal party of her parents to
Miss Jones.
Mr.. ]. H. Cantelou, in a most
pleasing manner, gave the popular
bride a very handsome silver vase,
the gift of the wedding party of her
mother.
Mrs. A. T. samuePs most accepta-
BILE souvenir of her elaborate party
for the bride was wonderful cook
book with much valuable advice in
rhyme.
Delicious refreshments, in two
courses were served-an elaborate
salad course with iced tea, and block
cream with fruit cake and mints.
Mrs. Lovick Smith presided over
the brides book on this distinctly
delightful occasion. Mrs. Augustus
Corley presented each brides maid
of 1895, as she registered, a laven-
der sachet bag, which Mrs. B. B.
Jones had made from the exquisite
materials of her daughters trous-
seau.
There was only one member of the
bridal party of 1895 missing-Mr.

he sent the following telegraphic
message to the bride: 'sMy congrat-
ulations to the wedding party of

last number was of Z different

The ease, the swing OF the real Joy

musicians and was we'll liked by the
audience. The beauty of the mel

brought out. the strings showing to
advantage bringing out the sugges-
ton of sadness as only strings can.
The Symphonic poem which is more
elaborate. was splendidly handled
and showed real musicianship on
the part of the orchestra members.
The unity displayed in this number
was marked and the tone shading
remarkable. The first number OH
