CROSS HILL NEWS

Cross Hill, July 11.-A very quiet
marriage took place here Sunday, July
3, 1921, when Miss Sara Il. Corley be-
came the happy bride Of Mr.. James
Claiborne Macdonald Of Spartanburg.
The ceremony was performed at $3.50
o'clock in the afternoon by the brides
pastor, Rev. w. ID. Ratchford, in the
presence Of few immediate relatives
and at the home of the brides mother,
Mrs. Florence Corley, who for num-
Der of years has resided here with her
sister, Mrs. Mamie Williams. Though
this marriage has been confidently ex-
Dected for several months by Miss
Sara's closest friends, still it was kept
a profound secret from the general
public and was surprise to most
people.
In her kindly devotions and loving
care for her afflicted mother and 9TH
er members of the family the bride is
seldom surpassed, while her reserved
Dut friendly disposition and her con-
genial and exemplary life in school
and society has won for her many
warm friends. We regret to lose her
from Cross Hill but extend her all
good wishes in her new and happy re-.
lations.
The groom is young man Of good
business qualities, the son of Mr..
Alexander Macdonald OF Blackstock,
5. ", who is native of Scotland and
belonging to that class of citizens not
ed for rigid honesty and uprightness
or ne. Ills home is now In Spartan
burg where he has a good position as
city salesman for Swift & Company.

LANFORD NEWS

iLanford, July 11.-In the beautiful
grove around the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. d. Johnson on Tuesday, July
> was a scene of gay festivity and
mirth, when the relatives and friends
OF Mrs. Julia Lanford Johnson gave a
surprise picnic in honor of the 10Th
birthday anniversary Of their much
beloved Aunt Julia"
After greetings, hearty congratula-
tions and an hour or two Of pleasant
conversation, the merry party re-
paired to a table beautifully and taste
fully arranged under magnificent
old oak tree which was literally
groaning under wealth and bounty
of good things to eat.
When the party was seated Capt.
j. w. Lanford made q few well chos-
en- remarks, announcing a very ap-
propriate paper which was read by
Mrs j. l.. Higgins in behalf of the
Bible Class OF which Aunt Julia is a
faithful member. The paper was
well written and suitable to the oc-
casion, telling dear Aunt Julia" Of
the place Of honor and high esteem
she holds in the hearts OF her church
and Sunday School associates and re-
calling her many words of encourage
mcnt and cheer, the countless deeds
Of love and kindness she has shown to
others along her pathway Of life. AT
ter this reading poem composed by
Mrs. j. w. Johnson, was beautifully
delivered by Mr.. r. Yates Waldrep, a
recent graduate OF Wofford College
This poem added much merriment and
fun to the occasion, giving just the
touch Of humor needed to restore the
smiles to faces saddened by the
pathos OF Mrs. Higgins address.
Mr.. and Mrs. B. W. Johnson, of
Arcadia, Mrs. j. w. Johnson, Mrs. j..
g Higgins, Mrs. G. ID. Cox, Mrs. G. L..

! The Civic League made good start
when it made the court house lawn a
real thing Of beauty instead of an eye
sore. We do not know to what the
league will turn its attention next but
it will do a good work in cleaning
up and beautifying the town if given
support.
The Advertiser carries number of
bank statements in its issue today
While one not yersed in banking, ex-
cept in giving notes. cannot tell all
that there is to be known about q
bank by it's statement, still one can
tell whether conditions look healthy
Or not. We believe that a study of
Laurens county banks will show that
they are more than ordinarily sound
and that they are in strong posi-
ton to carry on the work they are
called on to do. All Of them, no doubt,
have had trying situations to face but
the conservatism that has charac-
terized the town has stood them in
good stead during the past year.
