took of the "wedding feast" The
table was centered with a huge we'd
ding cake,-baked by Mrs. Loren
Duvau, and with its SO tapers, also
so roses, and other decorations OF
golden color.
In the afternoon, between the
hours of two and SIX. an informal
reception was held at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Duvall's daughter Mrs.
Mildred Adrean. In all about 200
called to greet and pay their re-
spects to the esteemed couple. The
Adrean home was beautifully dec
grated for the occasion, the golden
colors having been artistically car
ried out. Refreshments of ice
cream and cake were served to all
who called. The Misses Lynn,
Rothrock and Dunmed, with caps
and dainty aprons of yellow. serv-

was monogra ammed in yellow with

and in the lower corners the dates

Mr.. and Mrs. Duvall received a
number of fine gifts from their
friends, which were presented by
their pastor Rev. Chas. w. Stone
burner, sat the Adrean home. AS
pretty and fitting climax, Mr.. Du-
vail recited "This is the end of a
Perfect Day"
A regrettable thing occurred in
connection with the reception; that
was that one of the GAINESVILLE pa
pers of Saturday in announcing the
reception stated that invitations had
been mailed out for the occasion
This was an error. No invitations OF
any sort had been mailed out, and
general invitation was extended to
the reception. This mistake kept
some from attending. Out of town
guests at the reception, not above
mentioned, were T. B. Adkins and
wife, Mr.. and Mrs. Boyd Filkill and
John. Boles, all of GAINESVILLE.

he has number. He is one Of the

ltional bank. The aggregate of checks
issued is about $3.50. They were
given to many of our local mer-
chants, restaurants, and direct to
the banks for cash. The forgery
had been going on for about a
month
Mr.. Wilson and son use the same
check book, and several members or
the Wilson family sign checks. Not
ing the many check stubs, how
ever, which seemed more in num-
Der than they should be, the mem
bers of the Wilson family began to
inquire among themselves, and an
investigation soon disclosed what
had been going on. In some way
the lad also got use of the Wilson's
check protector, and the supposition
is that when he took the blank
checks, with the protector, he filled
in the amount, and later wrote
checks, putting in the numerals to

checks were getting larger, and the
average would be about eight dol

When the boy was first arrested,
with him was also arrested his
brother Deane, aged IS, since the
latter's name appeared on some
checks. However, the younger boy
absolved his brother, stating that he
had written the checks, using his
brothers name for Endorsement,
without the latter's knowledge, and
that his brother was not implicated,
SO the older brother was let go.
The checks were given in payment
for watches, flash lights and various

implicated in the affair.
Officials held the boy here after
his sentence, thinking that perhaps
through him they might learn of
others who were implicated. While
others suspected were brought in
and questioned, they were all re.
