Nashville, Tenn., May 4.— An event of more than usual interest in South ern church and college circles waB the wedding here this morning of Miss Helen Dean Chappell, of Nashville, to Prof. Goodrich C. White, of the chair of Mental and Moral Science, Emory College, Oxford, Ga. The wedding was a quiet affair, only relatives and intimate friends being present.

Hudson, of Atlanta, and Mrs. W. Aiken Smart, the bride’s Bister, also of Atlanta, were the only attendants. The bride’s father, Dr. E. B. Chappell, Sunday- Bchool editor of the Methodist Epis copal Church, South, performed the ceremony. The bride is the younger daughter of Dr. and Mrs. E. B. Chappell, who are both widely known in Southern Metho dism. She is a graduate of Ward Semi nary, and has studied at the Univer sity of Missouri, Randolph-Macon Col lege, and Vanderbilt University. Her literary gifts and attainments and her charming personality have won for her the affection of a wide circle of friends in Nashville and other Southern cities where she has visited. Prof. White was graduated from Emory College in 1908, with a Bachel or of Arts degree. For two years after graduation he was connected with the board of missions of the Methodist church in Nashville, and it was here that he met Miss Chappell.

In 1913 he held the chair of Psychology and Education in Wesleyan Female College, Macon, and from that position he came back to his alma mater as head of the depart ment of Mental and Moral Science, which place he now holds.

The funeral was held at that place Tuesday morning, services being con ducted by Rev. Firley Baum. - ■ ■ m The county tax equalizers, MessrB. R. D. Cole, J. Pope JoneB and Geo. P. Hodnett, met Monday, and during the coming six weelfs will devote most of their tyne to the difficult and by no means pleasant duty of trying to equalize property values in Coweta county. They are making a careful study of the returns filed with the Tax Receiver, and where doubt exists as to the fairness of the valuations listed special inquiry will be instituted, the only purpose in such cases being to se cure authentic data upon which to base an estimate that will be juBt to the property-owner, and at the same time fair to the county and State. As a re sult of these investigations property values will in sofne instances be re duced, and increased in others, as circumstances may warrant, In other words, the board is seeking earnestly to get all property values upon an equitable basis, and will be guided in its deliberations and decisions not only by actual investigation in the matter of disputed appraisements, but by a sense of justice and fairness to all interests concerned. Mr. L. E. Snead is clerk of the board.

The “Cowetas.” A seasen ticket to the ball games, offered by Capt. T. S. Parrott, secre tary ef the Newnan Baseball Associ ation, to the lady suggesting a name for the Newnan chib, brought sixty- four replies, some of them containing as many as twenty names. The let ters were numbered and turned over to Messrs. H. H. North, Frank L. Ste vens and Jas. E. Brown, as judges, the signature to each letter being carefully erased beforehand. The judges were asked te run through the list, and make a selection from among the hundred or more names submitted. There were many duplicates, thoBe repeated often- est being as follows: "Cowetas,” 21; "Parrotts,” 8; "Wahoos, ” G. The name "Cowetas” receiving such a large majority, so to speak, the judges decided to adopt it. All the letters suggesting this name were then bunched together on a table, face downward, and Mr. Bird Paiks was called in and asked to draw at random one of the letters. The one thus drawn was No. 33, and when compared with the list kept by Capt. Parrott, and which the judges were not permit ted to Bee, it was found that Misa Ellen Turner’s letter bore the lucky number. Consequently this popular little lady will enjoy a front seat in the grand stand and the privilege of the grounds throughout the league Bea3on. Memorial Tablet for Gen. Wm. Mc Intosh. Sarah Dickinson Chapter, D. A. R., has had made in New York a handsome bronze tablet commemorating Gen. Wm. McIntosh’s loyalty to the Ameri can cause in both the Revolutionary War and in the War of 1812, and his friendship for the wbiteB up to the un happy boor when be was assassinated The Great **Lusitania 99 Disaster The sinking of the British ship, the “Lusitania,” which appalled the world, put men to thinking, put husbands to thinking, and wives to thinking. Our hearts go out to the unfortunate Americans who went down with this ill-fated ship, and yet THEY WERE WARNED! Should we not heed a WARNING? —A WARNING GLVEN IN TIME? Indeed, the idea of war makes error per petual. Like the warrior, unfitted by wounds and disease to longer fight, who re turns home to be with his family, (who, although at home, suffered with him,) and the march their disabilities down they winding ways of Time, peacefully, quiefcly, happily—HE WAS PROTECTED. Even though he may not be victori ous in war, he has conquered WOE, WANT, HATE, FEAR, PENURY. Protection, the bounteous ancestor of trouble, is what the G. E. Parks In surance and Realty Co. is now reminding its friends and others—those who do not wish to be bothered, misled, persuaded or driven, but are seeking sound insur ance. Forging ahead by the spirit of service, this company, with all red tape eliminated from its vocabulary, will TAKE OFF YOUR GROUCH—yes, even in time of TROUBLE. Q. TL. Parks Insurance & Realty Co.

The tablet is 23x30 inches, and some time during the summer, upon a date yet to be fixed, it will be erected on the south west corner of the court-house enclo sure with appropriate ceremonies as a memorial to the dead chieftain. The tablet bears the following inscription — “To commemorate the courage and fidelity of the Creek Indian chief, Wil liam McIntosh. In his youth he shield- d pioneers during the Revolution from hostile tribes. He attained distinction in the War of 1812, and guided Gen. Jackson and his troops over the Indian trails to New Orleans. On Feb. 12, 1825, he signed the treaty by which all lands west of the Flint river were ceded to the State of Georgia. For this he was slain by a band of Creeksi who were opposed to the treaty. This stone is set 1915 by the Sarah Dickinson Chapter, D. A. R., Newnan."

The “Cowetas” Playing Fine Balk Winning two out of three games from Griffin last week, and the only two played against LaGrange this week, the "Cowetas” are now camped on the Roman hunting-ground, where they are giving battle to the league leaders. This series is to be a crucial one, and Manager Matthews is determined to get it. The team iH playing high-class ball, and with the addition of Edmonson, last season’s third baHcrnan, they will be materially strengthened. An un fortunate accident to John Gentle in batting practice Monday has weakened the pitching department, but Whitney, Methvin and Sewell are all in fine shape. Sewell pitched his first profes sional game Wednesday and held La- Grange to four hits, two of them com ing in the 9th inning. This boy ib a “comer,” and with a year or two of Class "D” experience he is destined to go higher. Attention is called to the big base ball week commencing next Monday. Talladega stacks up against the "Cow etas” May 17, 18 and 19, and Rome comes May 20 for a series of three games. After these two series the team will be away for nine gameB. The Herald joins with the baseball associa tion in urging the patronage of the public. Newnan is represented ty a high-claSB team this year, and everyone Bhould lend both enthusiasm and finan cial assistance. Attention is also called to the "jit ney” aerviee to and f-om Lee Park. A number of "jitney” oars are now in operation, the fare being 0 cents each way. "Ladiee’ Day” season tickets are still on sale at all drug stores. Tuesday and Friday are "Ladies’ Days,’’and by purchasing one of these tickets the la dies are saving a neat sum on the sea son. Newnan took the opener yesterday from Rome in a hard-fought game, the final score being 3 to 2. The game abounded in many features. Methvin pitched a brilliant game, and also batted inOC per cent., connecting Bafely three times in three trips to the plate. Man ager Matthews showed his headwork in Rome’s half of the 9th inning when, with a runner on third base and a left- handed batter at bat, he substituted Whitney for Methvin. Manager Burle son then tried to checkmate "Matty" by switching to a right-hand bitter, but Whitney purposely walked this man, «md then proceeeed to fan the next twe men. Believe me, Bertram, it was some game. Buena Vista Patriot: "An exchange wants to know why it is that the men who attend church like to sit at the end of a seat and hold on like grim death. That’s easy. It is to get out quickly in case of fire. These sinners are strongly reminded of fire and brim stone that is pursuing them, and they want to be in a position to make a quick getaway," A flaming necktie is no s.gn that there is red blood behind.
