gia some time during the fall or win
ter, asked especially that he be shown
tree and a saw-mill, having seen
neither in his life.
The route taken upon the return
trip was via the Southern Pacific, and
San Antonio was visited. This is the
largest city in Texas now, having
been given this precedence by the
last census. For two hours the party
rode about this beautiful city. A park
situated in the center of the city was
a beautiful landscape scene, and the
river winding about the city added to
the beauty.
In coming from San Antonio to
Houston, large bridge was encoun-
tered, the height of the bridge from
the water level being 800 feet. In
crossing the Mississippi, the long
train was taken over by tug, but so
even and smooth was the passage that
the travellers did not know that they
were off the solid ground.
Upon arriving home, Mrs. Edwards
expressed herself as having had a
wonderful trip; the scenery was mag
nifcent and unusual, but after all,
there "is no place like home," and
the old red hills of Georgia.

blossoms, white satin dress and all the
wedding accessories which an ordin-
airy bride acquires. The wedding
ceremony over, dancing began at sun
down and continued without cessa-
ito until sun-up. The music was SUI
perb, as played upon the stringed in
struments by these native musicians.
The wedding supper was held in the
home, and to thos only the immed-
late relatives and friends were bid
den, but the dance was open to all,
and everybody came. There were
no fewer than 500 people present,
Mrs. Edwards said, and all danced
and had the best time imaginable.
Mostly Mexicans.
The people were mostly Mexlcans,
ranging in color from a dead olive
white to almost jet black. The cos
tune worn is the conventional Amerl-
can style, though some native cos
tunes were in evidence throughout
the travels of the party. The Ian
guage is Mexican, or Spanish, and
when white people converse with the
natives it is almost invariably in the
vernacular picked up between the
races, with many signs intermlngled..
The natives are very clannish and
congregate among themselves. The
hospitality of the Americans is mar
velous to behold. People coming
through on those long prairie trips
are welcomed into the homes, known
or unknown, and often the residents
of the home do not know that vlsl-
tor has been amongst them until the
next morning, when, upon arising al
note is found pinned to the door that
a guest came during the night, prepar-
ed his own meal, slept in the bed and
departed without waking the occu-
pants.
The Edwards saw wonderful dali
ry on a farm located 20 miles from
Balmorhea. This dairy was supplied
with running water from mountain
stream, and the shelves were ar
ranged with the milk, butter, honey
and fruits to be kept cool, and around
this the cool waters from the noun
tain spring continually flowed, keep
ing the products at almost freezing

Miss Susie Clay DeLoach, Miss
Rena Forrest and Stonewall Shirley,
Sumter county club members, left
Monday for Athens, where they
go to attend the annual short course
at the State College of Agriculture.
This course begins today, and will
continue until Sunday, with an anti
cipated attendance of 1000 boys and
girls from all parts of the state.
Miss DeLoach and Miss Forrest
won scholarships for this course by
their excellent club work during the
year, Miss DeLoach being awarded a
scholarship for the three best exhibits
in club work at the Sumter county
fair last fall, and Miss Forrest being
first prize winner in club work at the
Southeastern fair in Atlanta. Both
are enthusiastic club members, and
already have won number OF other
honors for the excellence of their
work.
Stonewall Shirley, who is gradu-
ate of the Third District Aggle col
lege here, won first prize at the state
fair in Macon, being awarded trac-
tor and in addition his hogs won for
him several blue ribbons at the Sum-
