artistically arranging colors to
the satisfaction of even the most
critical. Everything that is
needed by the professional soatn
tross was in use. Sewing bags,
silk thread, cotton thread, silks,
satins, taffetas, linen, and other
fabrics too numerous to mention
were the objects that were used
to perfect the ideas entertained
by the young ladies in regard to
fabrics. All present were either
giving or receiving new and ben
eficial ideas in the furtherance of
producing something beautiful
and useful by the skillful combi
nation of cloth and thread.
A delicious ice course was
served at a late hour.

Fish Fry at McArthur’s
Bluff Friday Last.
Last Friday a very enjoyable
fish fry was given at McArthur’s
Bluff. A large crowd met early
in the morning and after much
good natured jest and friendly
conversation the men of the
crowd prepared and dressed the
fish while the ladies fried them.
The young people amused them
selves with games until dinner
was announced, when a feast
was spread under the shade of
the beautiful oak trees.
Everybody enjoyed the dinner,
especially the fine fish. There
were many large carp and cat
fish, the largest carp weighing
18 lbs. Late in the afternoon
the crowd broke up, all saying
they had had a nice time and
wishing for another fish fry soon.

Death of Mrs. Wilkes.
*And I heard a voice from Heaven staying unto
me. Write, BtaMd are the dead which die in the
Ixmi, from henceforth: Yea, amid the apirit, that
they may reat from their laiiora; and their works
do follow them"—Rev. xiv: 13.
On Monday morning, Aug. 16,
Sister Lucy Wilkes departed this
life for a home of rest. She had
been ill for some time, but had
not been confined to her bed.
She was the wife of Clement
Wilkes, who died several years
ago. She was about forty-five
years of age, and leaves no chil
dren, but is survived by one
brother and two sisters, whose
loss is gairrfor the departed one,
we hope.
Mrs. Wilkes was a member of
New Hope Church, and was a
faithful Christian, beloved by a
large circle of friends. Remains
were laid away at New Hope, the
funeral service being conducted
by Rev. B. G. Fortner, and wit
nessed by a large number of sor
rowing friends.
