After some preliminary work by the executive committee, the convention was called to order, minutes read, etc. A very line talk by Mrs. L. A. Dillard, president of the LaGrange union, proved to' be a little gem, full of the wisest sugges tions on “How to Make Our Meetlhgs Interesting." Mrs. Dillard is a ready off-hand speaker, and she Is always heard gladly and with profit. Following this little speech were the reports of the county presidents. ; This part of the program was not full ow ing to the absence of many of-the of ficers. All of the reports given, were full of encouragement and' Interest. Mrs. J. L. Bradford, of LaGrange, sang a solo, "Not a Spnrrow FbII- eth/' delightfully. ■ V A, talk on temperance work among the colored people WAS made *by Mrs. E. P. Morgan, of Amerlcus. Following this talk were fwo-mlnute talks on "How to Do IV. C, T. U. Home Mission Work" by fifteen of the members In the unions over the state. These talks were to the point, forcibly and well given.. This, session was In teresting and characterised by the same spirit of the morning 1 hour. Tuesday evening exercises of the Woman's Christian.Temperance Union came near being broken- upjby a fall ing rain; but In spite of the downpour, a good audience was on hand, and there was a treat for all who came. After the convention was called to order by Mrs. Jennie Hart Sibley, Rev. J. G. Herndon, pastor of the LaGrange Presbyterian church, read a Scripture lesson and offered prayer. Then the mayor of LaGrange, Mr. J. D. Ed mondson, made a fine speech of greet ing, extending the warmest welcome to all, and with beautiful words of encouragement about the work of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Rev. Fletcher Walton, of the First Methodist church, made one of his best talks In behalf of the churches, giving points of history about the temperance work before the unlon took It up. The annual address of the president Mrs. Mary Harris Armour, was Indeed the treat of the evening. It was able and eloquent and earnest. Wednesday morning found the mem bers of the convention of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union In their places bright and early, and ready for work. Everywhere were beautiful banners and varl-colored cards and unique Invitations, gotten up In most artistic fashion, on large cardboards— these to be put up In public places to catch the attention of the public and Invite them to the. meetings. The convention was called to order by the president, who also led In tha devo tional exercises. Mias Griffin, who Is. the very com petent secretary, read the minutes of the last session, which were promptly adopted. Mrs. Charles Morris, of Mllledgevllle, submitted a fine paper on "Prison Work," which was listened to with closest attention and heartily Indorsed. - The next paper was read by Miss Ruth Dodge. Her paper was < "Our Pledge and what It Mr Us." She met promptly and ably all objections that may be urged to taking pledges, and showing conclusively ho— helpful they are when sincerely entet Into. She said God Himself pledges His people what He will do for us—a fine conclusive argument. There was a motion immediately made and adopted to have this excellent paper published In -The Bulletin, the state organ of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Just here Mrs. Jennie Hart Sibley arose and read the following telegram, ad dressed to Mayor Woodward, of At lanta, asking for Its adoption, by the convention, which was promptly and enthusiastically done; "To Mayor Woodward, Atlanta, Ga. "Greetings; We, the Georgia Tern perance Christian Union, In session, do praise the Lord that by your act of closing the saloons you have declared the saloon to.be a menace to peace, the hotbed of anarchy, crime and blood shed. Our prayers ascend for their permanent closing and for God's pro tectlon and peace In our Capital City. A beautiful' and earnest prayer was made for the city of Atlanta this morn Ing on the opening of the session. I After the adoption of the telegram to Atlanta; Mrs. Grist, of Marietta, gave a beautiful vocal selection. Three fine papers on "Purity In Lit erature and Art" were read by Mrs. R. J. Barnet, of-Newnan, Ga.; "Pictures In the- Home," by Mrs. Frank Har well, of LaGrange, and "Good Books in the Home," by Miss Marllu Smith, of LaGrange. Mrs. Harwell's paper was considered worthy of publication In leaflet form, and It will be used as the literature of the body. The compliment was well deserved. Mr. J. B. Bowers, of Dalton, Ga., was Introduced to the convention and-made a most pertinent little talk, and he gave the convention.$5 In token of his appreciation of their grand work and of their kindness to him, os he has been working his own way and striving for an education. ' The talk and the money were graciously received and he was made an honorary member of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, with the white ribbon pinned on Ills lapel. Rev. Mr. Elliott, of the Second Moth odist church, was also introduced and responded In an eloquent speech of en couragement. He also was made an honorary member. An Item more of Importance was the appointment by the president for 1(07 of Miss Carrie Lee Stokes, of Missouri, and Miss Lillie O'Daniel national or ganlzers, with Mrs. Nell Berger, of Mis sourl. This session was crowded with work, which was dispatched with fine methods and good spirit.

The wedding of Mr. Robert Bruce Johnston and Mlsa Stella Mae Miller took plnce Wednesduy evening at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Miller, on Irwin street. The ceremony was performed by Dr. Jarrell, of Grace Methodiet church. Mlsa Pauline Miller, sister of the bride, was maid of honor, and Mr. Wi liam King was best man. After the ceremony a reception was held and at midnight Mr. Johnston and hts bride left for a trip North. The bride wore a gown of white crepe de chine, made pHncess, and trimmed with baby Irish lace. Her veil was caught with orange blossoms, and she carried a bouqeut of bride's roses. The meld of honor wore a toilette of white crepe de chine and her bouquet was of pink roses. Upon their return to the city Mr. end Mrs. Johnston *111 b« at home at 281 Houston street.

In Commerce, Ga, Tuesday evening at 5 o'clock, the marriage of their daughter. Miss Ethel Harber, to Mr. George Homer Porter, of Atlanta, took place. It was a quiet home wed ding and only a few Intimate friends of the' family were Invited. The decora tions throughout the home were ap- New York, Sept. 27.—There la one comfortable thing about the re cent tendency to eliminate aeaaon llnea to a great extent In eo far as ma terials are concerned, and to make all wool and silk fabrics so soft and supple that they are as appropriate for summer aa for winter, anJ may be used Interchangeably. The frock of crepe, voile, silk, mousseline, chif fon cloth, etc, made for summer wear, will now re-enforce a winter ward robe In most satisfactory fashion, and that fact Is a blessing tc- the woman of few clothes. The sleeveslesa, low-cut bodices of the summer, worn over short sleeves and gulmpe of lace or other filmy stuff, will have their echoes In dressy winter gowns, and already some of these models are being modified and reproduced in crepes, soft silks and silk voiles, etc. Or If by chance they were originally made in such materials they will be altogether appropriate for the coming season. PLAID8 AND TAFETA8. In certain trig little walking costumes of mixed tweed or serge of neu tral tone, waistcoats of Scotch plaid are used with resultant smartness and gray cloth embroidered In little steel beads often forms the waist coats for the tailored costume. Very high girdles closely fitted and taking on a waistcoat effect by buttoning across In double-breasted fashion with handsome buttons are seen even upon very dressy frocks In beautiful brocades of plain silks, and this same Idea Is developed in connection with some of the new three-piece costumes for street wear. To trim cloth with taffeta of a same shade Is not exactly a new fashion, but It Is a fashion that has ’suddenly been revived and many of the new 6 owns are made up with this sort of trimming. Embroidered taffeta com ined with English embroidery, the open-work and eyelet hole kind. Is the most expensive and effective, but another trimming offered is a side pleat' Ing covered with French knot* of the same shade of silk as the taffeta. I gray gown, for Instance, Is trimmed with these bands of pleated taffeta about three or four Inches wide, and Is heavily embroidered with the Freneh knots. It Is an odd style of trimming, and In this case the oddity makes It smart and popular. BLACK8. That black will be extensively worn seems to be established beyond a shadow of doubt, and not only In broadcloth and other heavy woolens, but In silks and In sheer stuffs the supply of black seems practically endless. In line with the black materials comes such an assortment of black laces as has not been seen before, a fact proving the faith of manufacturing circles In the vogueiof black. Black silk venlse and black silk cluny are offered In beautiful designs and In all Imaginable forms, and for, trimming the sheer black materials come block silk point de gaze and many embroidered net laces. A host of combination laces In block silk, often uniting four or five heavy and fine laces In one design, are also In evidence. LACE8 AND TRIMMJNG8. In white laces there Is so far nothing strikingly new, and the heavy Irish and Venetian varieties bid fair' to retain their prestige, noveltle* In lace being embodied In combination laces rather than In separate and In Individual varieties. The showing of gauzy materials, embroidered tulles and nets, silk gauzes, silk moussellnes, chiffon cloths, and the slightly heavier yet still gossamer-llke stuffs, such as silk voile and silks of the radium order, is really amazing; and-for evening and house wear these shimmering trans parent or semi-transparent stuffs will be tremendously popular. The em broldered tulles and nets will be lavishly used, too, as trimmings, being In' troduced even upon broadcloth and heavy silks. The stripes, gauzes, chiffons, etc., are particularly pretty, and there Is a pronounced fancy for such semi-transparent striped effecte In contrasting weave or fabrics, but In one tone. FROCK8 FOR CHILDREN. There are no costumes for children more suggestive of Infantile charm than those made of white lingerie materials. These dainty washable toilets show many exquisite details, and In the well-heated American bouses they are often carried over all winter for house wear. Under-slips of tinted or white flannel, or maybn of, silk, make them possible for the cooleet days, and there Is an eleganoe about them that non- waahablo stuffs, however, rich, never could achieve. So admired are these costumes, In fact, that of late seasons It has been the thing to make up many lightweight winter textiles on lingerie lines. Wash embroideries and laces are employed with thin lawn for the gamps of low frocks, this white, fresh note given a most pleasing touch. A dress for a girl of eight Is of dull blue rajah, with pointed yoke of the same In open embroidery. A sash of the knotted silk girdles this smart, long-bodlced dress at the aide, and the sleeves are short elbow affairs in fine kilting and embroidery. Dull red cashmere with a yoke of white silk braided and embroidered In red, accomplishes another smart gown for the eame age, The very ehort skirt of this Is In scallops above a frill fall, a bond of braid and embroidery outlining the scallops. An empire bodice Is stimulated by the shirring of the bodice, thle then edged with a double frill. The long sleeves are shirred at the forearm and In fluffs above. propriate and profuee. Misses Marie Harber and Ruth Stark acted as rib. bon-bearert; Miss Ruth Harber, a sis ter of the bride, was maid of honor, and Mr. Ernest Porter, of Atlanta, was beet man. Messr.8. John and Paul Har ber acted as ushers, and Miss Luclbel rendered Mendelssohn's wedding march. After the ceremony was per formed by Rev. D. J. Blackwell, pas tor of the Presbyterian church, the wedding party enjoyed a I o'clock din ner. Mr. Porter Is a prominent young man, both In social and business cir cles In Atlanta, and Mies Harber Is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. D. Harber, one of Commerce's leading bueinees men, and Is very popular. They will make their home In Atlanta, where Mr. Porter la connected with the Southern railway.
