MISS ELIOTT WEDS
MR. FRANK SMITH
A wedding of much interest to a
wide circle of friends was that of
Miss Mary Irene Elliott, only daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Z. T. Elliott, to
Mr. Frank W. Smith, which was sol
emnized on Wednesday. February
18, at 5:30 o’clock, at the home of
the bride’s parents. On account of
i the illness of the bride’s father the
! wedding was a very quiet affair, only
near relatives and a few friends be
ing invited.
The home was artistically decor
ated with beautiful spring flowers.
In the living room, where the cere
mony was performed thefe was an
improvised altar of southern smilax,
with a mas- of ferns, and tall bas
kets of white roses, the gleaming
white of the lighted candles among
the mass of greenery adding a
decorative and brilliant tou-'h.
Preceding the marriage service a
beautiful musical program was ren
dered by Prof. .1. A. Medcalf, accom
panied by Miss Martha Wellmaker
at the piano. The party entered to
the strains of Mendelssohn’s wedding
march, and Shumann’s Traumeri was
played softly during the beautiful
ring ceremony, which was performed
by Kev. Arthur Jackson.
The bride entered with her brother,
Mr. Nall Elliott, by whom she was
given in marriage. They were met
at the altar by the groom and his
best man, Mr. John Collier.
The bride was lovely in a going
away gown of a green ensemble suit,
with hat and accessories to match,
wearing a hi ide’s bouquet of roses
and lilies of the valley.
Mrs. Smith is a lovely young wo
man of the blonde type. Her sweet
and winning personality has endeared
tier to a host of friends throughout
this section as well as many other
sections of Georgia.
Mr. Smith is a promising young
man of this place and comes from
one of the most highly esteemed fam
ilies in middle Georgia.
Immediately after the ceremony
Mr. and Mrs. Smith left for a wed
ding trip, after which they will re
turn to Barnesville where they will
make their home.
The out-of-town guests attending
the wedding were Mrs. Will Lowry
of Grantville, (la., and Mrs. W. A.
McDonald of Sharpsburg, aunts of
the bride.

“GET TOGETHER”-AND GET,
By James Edward Hungerford
All the world’s intent on getting
Happiness, success, and fame,
And a lot of folks are fretting
’Cause they do not GET the same;
All their efforts are like bubbles,
• And explode—and they blame
FATE,
But the reason for their troubles
Is—they don’t CO-OPERATE!
They are overlooking OTHERS,
In their frantic search for pelf;
Seldom thinking of their BROTH
ERS—
All their thoughts intent on SELF;
They are out to GET a living—
Some may starve, but THEY must
eat;
Let the “rich ones” do the giving—
While with others THEY “com
pete.”
But, somehow’, they fail to “make
it”—
One by one, their plans explode;
Wealth is here—they try to take it,
And shift off their pauper’s load;
In their efforts they’re unceasing,
And they battle day and night,
But their burdens are increasing—
All their cherished dreams take
flight!
i It is time that we were waking
To the fact that we must GIVE;
Those intent on always TAKING,
Only see the “I” in LIVE;
If we’ll wisely work with others,
We will win, as sure as fate;
Are you READY? Fall in, broth
ers!
Here’s the word-“CO-OPER'ATE”!
o
One-third of New Y’ork City’s pop
ulation is foreign-born.
WOMAN AFRAID TO
EAT ANYTHING
“I was afraid to eat because I al
ways had stomach trouble after
wards. Since taking Adlerika I can
eat and feel fine.” (signed) Mrs. A.
Howard. ONE spoonful Adlerika
removes GAS and often brings sur
prising relief to the stomach. Stops
that full, bloated feeling. Removes .
old waste matter from intestines and
makes you feel happy and cheerful.
Excellent for obstinate constipation.
