One of the most brilliant, attractive

binds and rejects a legal separation
of the happy couple in South Carolina
until God sees fit to call for a separa-
tion and take one at time or may
be both to place where there is
neither marrying or giving in marri-
ages.
The groom is son of Mr.. and Mrs.
I. Powell of Central and holds posi-
tion with the Isaqueena mill where
he is held in high esteem by not only
his employers but by every one who
knows him. The groom is pious
young man and his life in that regard
is worthy example for other young.
men who care more for the pleasure
of the world than for their immortal
souls. The bride is a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. P. Wilson of Cen
trail and is a charming Young ladv
who stands high in social circles.
The large crowd of both single
and married people who accompanied
them showed the high esteem in
which they are held in their town.
AS the happy couple marched from
the little mill to their car they were
showered with rice by their many
friends, so much 80 until the ward
looked like there had been a young
snow.

PRICE OF FORDSON TRACTOR
REDUCED.

Mr.. H. p. Sitton, Jr., has received
the following letter from Mr.. Henry
Ford:
\ 1t is a pleasure, to- announce thru
you Ford dealers that we have de-
,cided that the tractor price should
again be reduced, and in considering
a reduction, naturally my thought
has been to make it possible for the
largest number of farmers to share
in the benefits to be derived thru the
use Of our tractor, and consequently
effective tomorrow, January 9th,
1922, the new price of the Fordson
tractor will be 1896, FOB Detroit.
This is cut of $3.50 off the present
price, and while in making this big
reduction we have taken upon our
selves a gigantic task in the
reduction of manufacturing costs.
still that task, in my opinion, Is not
larger than the farmers problem of
today, and I am glad to do my part
in bringing about a period Of increas-
ed prosperity for the farmer, thereby
enablinr him t" produce more with
less cost and shorter hours.
