tract OF "a acres Of land near Mid

stone made in 1902, this land was left
to trustees canned by him for the use

said that the land was so willed be-
cause Of the testator's appreciation Of
the successful efforts OF Father Dennis

cupants OF the house, as well as sun

The Livingstone will became opera

Trustees named by him to hold the
title to the land we're given authority
to appoint their successors on the board
of trustees. AS time passed interest
in the trust lapscd, and for years the
land was in possession Of the Min
ghni heirs, descendants of the last

Of the church in this diocese; Rev.
Father J.. A. Curran, pastor OF the

STRANGE PIPE ORGAN"
HEARD ON STONE MOUNTAIN

A giant pipe organ" with a
strange medley of notes, is formed
by the long barbedwire fence that
guards the 1,000-foot bluff at, the
summit of Stone Mountain near At
lanta, Ca, says the Popular Mechan-
les Magazine. The hollow iron posts
supporting the wires of the fence
have in them Sits of about half an
inch on the side facing the bluff.
These form series of whistles when
struck by the wind. And as the Sits
are at varying heights and every
shift of the wind includes new
group of posts. weird. ever-chang-
ing sound is produced. The fence
was ordered built after several per-
sons had fallen to the rocks nearly
1000 feet below.

The well people Of one neighbOrhood
in Washington County are particularly
indebted to Miss FitZsimOn for having
discovered u contaminated water sup
ply which might have caused the Ill.
ness of the entire community.
In cases where contaminated water
supplies were not discovered In time,
Miss FitZsimon has been able to offer
an anti-typhoid inoculation which has
been so successful In the army as a
means of stamping out this disease.
A group of trachoma cases dlscov-

the other members probably will be not

BROOKs.HAWKINs.
Democrat-Arg

Democrat Argus:
e Last Sunday morning at 9:45
o'clock at the home of the brides
Parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. C. Hawkins,
very pretty wedding occurred when
Miss Josephine Hawkins was mar
ried to Bailey Brooks of this city.
The ring ceremony was carried out
Rev. Mccullough performing the
marriage rites, and the bride looked
very pretty indeed attired in a hand
some travelling suit and carrying a
corsage of sweet smelling roses and
lilies of the valley. The couple
were attended by Miss Lavina Wilks
and James Oates, intimate friends of
the two. The wedding march was
rendered by Mrs. Alma Langdon, and
the bride given away by her father.
After the ceremony the guests were
led to the dining room where a de-
licious wedding breakfast was served
The bridal party then drove to
Hayti, where Mr.. and Mrs. Brooks
took the north bound train for st.
Louis and Columbia to spend their
honeymoon, returning here about
the first of December, where they
will continue to live in the future,
and will probably go to housekeeping
in the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas.
Shepard, who will leave here in the
near future, we learn, to spend the
winter in California.
Both young people are we'll known
to our people and to people all over
the county, Mr.. Brooks having been
employed in the office of the Coun-
ty Collector. Parker kersey, for the
past two or three years, and his
bride as assistant to Circuit Court
Clerk Ernest A. Long, where their
unfailing courtesy and attention to
the business of the people have won
for each of them the esteem, admira-
tion and friendship of the public.
Both are estimable young people and
in common with their many friends,
the Democrat-Argus takes pleasure
in wishing them the best that life
may afford them in their future COM
panionship together.

JUNIOR RED CROSS !,
MAKES GO0D CITIZENS
Through It Children Learn Patriotism,
Altruism and Generosity.

ThcNJunior Red Cross exists for the
purpose of making good American citi-
Zens. This statement was made by an
eminent authority in Il recent answer
to the question, "What Is the Junior
Red Cross?' In the United States
there are 5,OOO,000 numbers Of Junior
Red Crossers and in the Southwestern
Division the membership Of children
in this organizatio numbers 434, ,576
and here is some of the work these
children do.
They support work in Europe to
children who are in need. They send
Christmas boxes Of goodies to children
who do not have them. They make
shipments of garments abroad to the
destitute children of war-crippled
Europe. But this Is not as interesting
to Americans, perhaps, as the work
which the Juniors do at home. One of
the biggest problems in America today,
according to experts, Is the treInen
dOus amount Of malnutrition found
among the children of this country.
One-third of the children Of America
are malnOurished, according to actual
county. The Junior Red Cross,
through its school auXilaries and
growth classes. Is seeking to eliminate
large part of this malnutritiOn and
has succeeded TO very gratifying eX
tent.
The Junior Red Cross also is answer
ing the question Of how to eliminate
individual, group, racial and interna.
tional hatreds which exist among peO.
pie today. The polyglot character of
the personnel of the average Ameri.
can school gives an excellent field for
work of this kind and foreign children.
as well as native-born Americans.
learn what good citizenship is in their
Junior Red Cross activities even more
than they do in the patriotic exercises
Of their school room work. Loyal and
serviceable citizenship, that absolute
essential to II great democracy, is be.
ing created in the breasts of these lit
lie foreign-born Americans through the
Junior Red Cross activities as II never
could be otherwise.
One of the helps to this is the work
the children are doing for the disabled
ex-service men in hospitals, for the
sick and crippled children who need
help and cheer. In equipping play
grounds so that sad-eyed little chill
dren of the congested districts are
taught the joy of II normal childhO M.
BY learning to serve others H. these
and many other ways. lessons Of com.
munlty spirit and cooperation are
taught the growing boys and girls If
this country.
Another thing the Juniors are doing
is assisting In the promotion Of health
in their communities by cleanup cam
paigns and other civil undertakings.
On the whole, one Of the most con-
structive pieces of work done in the
Southwestern Division, American Red
Gross, during the year, in the opinion
of those who have studied the situa.
ton, is that among the children, which
has been carried on through the Jun
ior divisions of Red Cross chapters
and the school auxiliaries Of Junior
members.

when Mr. Ayers, his little dughtcr.
Lucille, and Isabelle WCscott, who
also lives in the home, made her a call
and invited her home with them, it
was not unusual.
When she entered and the lights
were turned on she encountered q
company of nearly 60 friends. Then
came the surprise. This was not
feminine affair and the number OF
gentlemen cqualled that of the ladies.
As it was an ideal evening the porch
was lighted and outdoor games were
enjoyed by the young people. Re-
freshmcnts were served and the affair
was planned and carried to a sue
cessful close by Mrs. L. NJ. Tobin,
Mrs. Everett Mutting and Mrs. w.
Lendall Ayers. Miss Folgcr has al
ways lived at home. Mr.. Robinson
has been for the past six years in
the employ of w. r. Ayers, Ayersdale
Farm. Mr.. Robinson and Miss Fol-
ger are very grateful to their friends
for this wonderful collection of gifts.
Their friends wish them success
through the journey of life. y very
pleasant evening was enjoyed by all.
Nj. and Mrs. George Scott, who
have been passing the winter in
Lewiston, have returned to their farm
here, accompanied by Doris and Mil
dred Lyon. The girls mother, Mrs.
Louise Lyon, is in Lynn.

Society. Walter Damrosch and Mrs
Damrosch of New York, will go
from social life to the stage as so
many young women are doing. Miss
Damrosch, who made her debut in
society two years ago, has been max
ing her preliminary studies for the
stage for some time past. She eX-
pected to begin this summer in a
stock company out of town, but has
changed her plans in that particu-
lar and will not make her debut I'M
til the opening of the season.
Miss Damrosch, who is petite and
pretty, is the first of her artistic fam
lily to devote herself to any other art
than music. Her uncle is DR.. Frank
Damrosch, head of the New York
Institute of Music, and her aunt,
Mrs. David Names, is well known
as a pianist.
She is a granddaughter of the late
James G.. Blaine of Augusta, and is
thus one of the little group which is
doing so much to break down the
prejudice against the theater as a
career for young women in society.
