OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
"Not what we have—but what we use;
Not what we see—but what we choose;
These are the things that mar or bless
The sum of human hagpiness.
"The things nearby— not things afar;
Not what we seem—but what we are;
These are the things that make or
break,
That gives the heart its joy or ache.
"Not what seems fair—but what is
true:
Not what >ve dream—but the good
we do;
These are the things that shine like
gems,
Like stars, in heaven’s diadems.
"Not as we take—but as we give;
Not as we pray—but as we live;
These are things that make for peace,
Both now and after time shall cease.”

Carmichael-Funderburk
The announcement of the en
gagement of Miss Mary Joe Car
michael and Mr. Horace Boyce
Funderburk, of Bainbridge is of
unusual interest here. Miss Car
michael is at present teaching in
Cairo, and has taught in several
other cities where she is quite
popular. She has a host of
friends and relatives in Jackson
and Butts county who are deep
ly interested in her approaching
marriage, which takes place in

the retiring regent. Mrs. J. D.
Jones, made an appropriate talk
commending the new officers to
the chapter and also thanking
the members, on behalf of the
retiring officers, for their loyalty
and co-operation for the past two
years. A rising vote of thanks
and appreciation for her work
was extended the retiring regent.
An efficient corps of officers
will preside over the destinies of
the chapter for the next two
years and no doubt great things
will be accomplished during the
new administration. The newly
elected regent pledged her best
efforts to the chapter and she
will have the support of every
member.

be of cordial interest to the many
friends of the bride-to-be whore

ago. She is the second daughter
of Mrs. Margaret Carmichael
Thaxton and of the late Mr. D.
