AMERICUS BLACKSMiTHiNG COMFY

WITH ROMANCE
OXFORD SEDIS TO EXERT A

HISTORY READS LIKE DIME
NOVEL.
Emory College, Oxford, Georgia, Sep
tember 20, 1913. Special).—Oxford,
Georgia, makes no pretense to being a
city; but it i- known far and wide as
the seat of Emory College. Not satis
fied with this distinction, the village is
becoming unique in romance in which
some o's her young people figure. Some
thing more than a year ago Miss Edna
Ousland, of Boca Grande, Florida, and
Mr. Bonnell Sitone, of Oxford, were
married in Atlanta. Mr. Stone re
turned to the University of Georgia to
finish his course in forestry and Mrs.
Stone returned to her home in Florida.
It seems that the couple had planned to
keep the matter a secret until com
mencement as a surprise to their
friends, but the secret was out in less
than a week. Mr. and Mrs’. Stone are
now living happily in Blairsville, Ga.
Less than a month ago Miss Sarah
Thomas and Mr. Brooks Kitchens, both
of Oxford, were married in Atlanta. Af
ter tlie ceremony the couple returned
to Oxford, and no one but the immedi
ate families of the two young people
knew of the marriage until two weeks
afterward. Mr. and Mrs. Kitchens arc
now pleasantly domiciled in the G. AV.
W. stone residence on Branham
Heights.
The latest romance, in which Oxford
figures only indirectly, reads like a
chapter from a thirtieth century nov
el—if they will still be having novels
in that distant day. Last winter there
! resided in Oxford Mrs. Geo. R. Loehr,
i her daughters, Misses Marie and Lou
ise, a»d her son, George. Another son,
Allen, named for his grandfather,
Young J. Allen the great Georgia mis
sionary to China, was teacher of lang
uages in the University school at
Stone Mountain. Mr. Allen Loehr is
now studying law in Atlanta.
Last June Mrs. Loehr, Miss Louise
and George went to Italy for the sum
mer. Miss Marie had left Oxford some
time before and was at that time visit
ing Madam Sylvia d’Amore in Buenos
Aires.
The other day George landed in New
\ York, direct from the shores of the Ad
| riatic where he had spent the summer.
| en route to Oxford, Georgia, for his
senior year in college. When he gji
off the steamship in New York, he
thought his sister. Marie, was still in
Buenos Ayres. Imagine his surprise
on finding her there waiting for him.
and his greater surprise on being in
troduced to her husband. Eric Tarrant
Davis, of Fort Worth, Texas.
Mr. Davis is engaged as a civil en
gineer on the Fan American railway m
Uruguay and he and Miss Marie Loeh ■
chanced to be on the same steamship
bound for New Y’ork. The fourth dav
off the South American coast the two
met for the first time. The twelfth df.v
• after the meeting the ship put into bar
|bor at Barbadoes, British West Indies
and the couple was married at Saint
Michael's Cathedral, August 25th.
1 Mr. and Mrs. Davis are now in Fori
Worth, Texas, for a few weeks, after
which Mr. Davis will return to Urugua.
to resume his work, and will there be
joined bv Mrs. Davis, after she has
visited her mother and sister in Flor
ence, Italy, and her father in Su Chow.
China.
The Loehrs are well known in Geor
gia. During the last twelve months
they were frequent visitors to friends
in Atlanta, Augusta and other Georgia
cities.
A R-eialist speaker declares that
| Mrs. Uankhurst is a patriot, which
helps in away to explain why John
j Bull never did like out patriotic spirit
| One cf the greatest news scoops
recent times is the advance informa
tion from the bureau of statistics that
the high cost of living is still high.

TEXAS BOY
CLAIMS COTTON
PICKING BEGGED
Atlanta, Sept. 22.—Georgia seems to
have lost the honor of having the
South’s champion boy cotton picker.
The Lone Star state now claims him in
the person of a youngster named Lon
nie Harris’, ten years old, son of M. L.
Harris. The Texas papers say the 'boy
picked 403. pounds of cotton in one day
If there is any boy in Georgia under
fifteen years of age who has beaten
that record, or who thinks he can beat
it now is the time for him to come for
ward and announce it to the world.
Lonnie Plarris is quoted as saying
that he will meet any boy in the world
in a twelve hour cotton picking con
test. Up until now, Georgia boys ha e
claimed the championship with an ao
jility to pick something like 350 pounds
V 3-I'ound Hen Lays “25 Pounds
of Eggs in a Year.
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside appears the record of a White
Leghorn hen in New England weighing
3.2 pounds. This hen laid in one year
257 egg 3, weighing on an average 1.8
ounces each. The eggs sold for $7.43.
and the hen ate 110 pounds of fe a d
•osting $1.66; or a return over the cost
M feed of $5.77. The same hen laid 20)
eggs in her second year.
