Exceedingly pleasing as the recep
tion of the populace proved to be
to the king and queen, the pro
gramme provided for the delectation
of the royal party was highly appreci
ated by their majesties, who were quite
profuse in their expressions of delight.
At the close of the programme, the
king, without waiting for Madame
Hughes-Thomas to be presented to him,
walked across and warmly Bhook her
hand. Casting a smiling glance over
the choir, His Majesty said: “You
Welsh people are passionately fond of
music, and you have beautiful voices.
1 have certainly enjoyed your choir
immensely.” Her Majesty, the Queen,
nodded her acquiescence to this splendid
tribute, and remarked to Madame
Hughes-Thomas, "Y our choir sang ex
tremely well.”—Western Mail, July 18,

pended from this was the wedding bell,

Rosa Middleton sang in a most charm
ing manner “The Rosary.” The bride

emerei.” The bride waB gowned in
lace over white charmeuse, trimmed
with pearls. Rev. Dr. Christie perform

In the dining-room, where the iceB

Why Georgia Prospers.
Albany Horald.
Georgia ginned, up to the first of De
cember, 600,000 more bales of cotton
than were ginned to the corresponding
date of 1912, and within 276,000 bales of
the total to Dec. 1, 1911, in which year
the State mode its most wonderful
crop. The 2,066,109 balds ginned in the
State up to Dec. 1 were worth, in round
numbers, $165,000,000, which figures
abundantly explain tho prosperity which
the commonwealth now enjoys.
But lot not the fact bo overlooked
that conditions in Georgia would bo far
less satisfying to-day If it wore not for
the fact that abundant food crops have
also been made. The cotton crop has
brought a flood of gold into the State,
but if huge crops of courn, oats, hay,
Hero- potatoes, peaB, moat, etc., had not also
been made, millions of this gold which
the farmers now hold aB surplus caBh
would huve gone out of tho Stato in
payment of bills for these necessary
food crops. Even as matters stand we
have had to buy enormous supplies of
meat and grain from the Wcat, but thiB
tribute to another section of tho coun
try would have been fur greater had
not tho State’s own food crops been
unusually large.
It is a fact abundantly proved by past
experience that Georgia’s prosperity is
determined less by the size of her cot
ton crop than by the eizo and variety
of her food crops. If the State could
produce all the food she requires, all of
ber cotton crop would represent cash
money surplus. Georgia has ginned
more than two million bales of tbe 1913
cotton crop. If, in 1914, Bhe should pro
duce but a million bales, but raise ALL
the food crops of which so large a pro
portion have in past years been bought
from the West, her financial condition
would be infinitely superior to what it
is to-day.
It is with Georgia as it is with tho in
dividual—not what she makes, but what
she keeps, that counts.
