Brilliant Wedding in Senoia. Sen'-in Kr.ier|.ri«f*-t!»r.ette. 10th Inat. A wt -tiding of much interest to the many friends of the contracting parties was solemnized Wednesday evening at 8 o’clock at the handsome home of Mr. and Mrs. and l.ee Hand, in this city, when their lovely daughter. Lena, was j happily married to Mr. Harry W. Cal-1 laway, of LaCirange. The gpacious lawn was brilliantly lighted with Japa nese lanterns, and was seated with rustic benches and chairs for the guests. The wide j>orch was decorated with Wandering Jew, moss stars and trailing vines. Those who assisted in receiving the guests were Mrs. C. C. McKnight, Mrs. Leroy Mann, Mrs. Grace Row, Mrs. R. E. McKnight. Mrs. Nixon Ar- nall, Mrs. R. W. Freeman. Mrs. J. D. Hunter, Mrs. Ed Sasser, MrH. J. T. Ar- nall, Mrs. L. I*. Hrandenburg, Mrs. J. C. Gardner, Mrs. J. C. Owen, Mrs. A. L. Wilkins apd Mrs. H. A. Hall. The interiof of the handsome home was thrown ifito one and converted into a bower of beauty with masses of ferns, srnilax, pink carnations and large clusters of Dorothy Pei kins pink roses. As the guests entered they were served punch by Misses Emily Arnall and Sa rah Hall on the side porch, and Misses Annie Belle Hutchinson and Edith Cul pepper at the main entrance. In the reception linll the piano was placed be neath the brolid s l.tirway, which was a mass of srnilax, twined in wreaths of pink and white roses. On the pewel- pnsts were lighted tapers in silver can delabra. Mrs. W. F. Culpepper presided at the piano, accompanied on the violin by Master Philip Power. Miss Opal McKnight sang "Because." Promptly at the appointed hour the sweet notes of Mondelsqohn'H "Wedding March" pealed forth and the bridul party de scended the stairs through uislea of white ribbon carried by Masters Lee Hand and Callaway Allen. Elizabeth Lindsey and Bessie Callaway were the flower girls. Next came Master Pierce Lindsey bearing the ring on a white sat in cushion. As bridesmaids Miss Annie Lou Hardy was gowned in pink tulle over pink silk taffeta, with silver trimmings; Miss Hel en McCrary wore point lace over a soft pink sutin, with pearl trimmings and tulle drapery; Miss Grace Jones wore Georgette crepe over silk taffeta, with dainty trimmings; Miss Ella Mue Free man wore a crepe de chine silk, draped in lace and chiffon. All carried pink (lowers. The groomsmen wore Messrs. Carey and Cason Callaway, of Atlanta; Banks Callaway and J. D. leaver, of LaGrange. Mr. Callaway was accom panied by his best man, Mr. Ely R Callaway. The pretty bride entered with her mother, Mrs. Lee Hand, and stood in front.of an improvised altar of ferns, srnilax and clusters of pink car nations, the baauty of the scene being enhanced by cathedral candles in crys tal candlesticks. Here Rev. J, H. Cowart stood qnd in u very solemn and impressive manner performed the cere mony that made them man and wife, during which time the "Flower Song" was played. The bride was elaborately gowned in a white silk crepe meteor, with a crush - able satin belt, the lace tunic in front being fastened with orange blossoms am) bows of seed pearls. The back was made (coat effect) of lace, and a long train fell gracefully from the shoul ders. The veil,was of soft maline, with sprays of orange blossoms. The bou quet was valley lillios. The bride presented her maids with a friendship bracelet, with the names of the bridal party and date of the wedding engraved thereon. Misses An nie Hooten and Ruby Hodnett kept the .bride's book. In the elegantly appointed dining- axiom an elaborate salad course was served. The table was covered with an exquisite white satin cloth edged in •cluny lace, the center-piece being a <vase of pink carnations. tin the library was a collection of the handsomest wedding gifts ever pre sented a couple in our city. The traveling suit of the bride was a recede silk poplin coat suit, with a soft pink pilk blouse, hat and gloves to match.

The small country merchant is a necessity, and that which is necessary should be protected. The community needs the community cash. Hut not every small town merchant is alive to his obligations and his op portunities. Many of them fall by the wayside be cause of their ignorance of or indiffer ence to the rights of the public. Fifty years ago the town merchant sat in bis store and waited for business to come to him. To-day the successful merchant is a hunter. He must go out cunning for customers. His ammunition is his stock in trade, and his gun is the local newspaper. Country people of to-day are as in telligent and up-to-date as their city cousins, and they gauge the merchant by his actions. If he is a hustler—if he keeps his store clean, his goods neatly % displayed, his advertisements running regularly in the paper—he attracts the public eye, and the public fol.ows its eye. But clean, neatly displayed goods and newspaper advertising are not the only requisites to a successful mercantile career. The country merchant should not bank too much on the fact that he is a necessity. He should be progressive—constantly bidding for trade —devising means of bettering the conditions of his custo mers, and acquainting them of the fact. He should consider their welfare as well as his own. The merchant should have one iron creed, and that creed should never be broken: He should treat all customers alike, never misrepresent his goods, and keep his shelves well stocked with truthful bargains. He should be considerate of other busi ness men in the community, for their rights are as great us his own. They do not own the town, and neither does he. He should join whole-heartedly in movements for building up and ex panding the business interests of the community, for success is only found on the topmost round of the ladder. The merchant who hus built up a reputation as a public-spirited man, as one who labors for the well-being of the whole community, never lacks for customers at his store. They migrate toward hia door as naturally us the birds fly south in win ter. Such merchants gain the confidence of the people, for the people know that the same intelligence and fair-minded ness which he expects in behalf of the community will be extended to his cus. tomers in commercial life. Most coun try towns have a few such merchants in their midst, and the community is better off for their presence. Y'ou invariably find their advertise-', merits in the local paper, telling of the merits of the wares they have to sell, and giving the people the information they are clearly entitled to. Such business men are successful be cause their methods of business aqd their very attitude breathe success. They have many customers, because the people admire a hustler. This town is located in a splendid community, and it should have a bright future ahead of it. But it depends upon us alone. We have some good business men in the town. They are well supplied with brains, and those brains are capable of ac complishing great results. Individually they can do much, but collectively they can revolutionize trading conditions in the community. The money that is being daily sent away for goods might just as well be spent at our local stores—and would be if the merchant arose to the opportu nities before him. It is the easiest thing in the world to keep the money at home, for consumers are not fools. Just keep the goods the people want and the quality they want. Sell these goods at a fair margin of profit, thereby competing in quality and price with the outsider. Then advertise persistently — keep the home goods constantly in the mind of the customer—awaken him to the fact that it is as much to his interest as yours to keep his money in circula tion at home. When you convince the consumer that you have the goods that he wants, and that they can be purchased here just as cheaply as elsewhere, he will leave his money at home by trading with the home merchant. The people want a live merchant in the community, and are willing to sup port his business. Who is in the live class? Speak up. gentlemen—speak up! “Treachery Unspeakable.” LouUvt-le Courier-Jourr.al. Tne (’resident’s note, along with its probable reach and fate, takes for ti e moment second place hy the side of the fathering of the whilom Secretary of State. Mr Wilson merely reiterated the case of the United States against Germany, supplying certain required particulars, and repeating the former plea, rather tnan demand, in behalf of established u-age laid in humanity and law. Ob serving that it contains nothing which sh. uld jjstie imperial sensibilities, or ruffle any reasonable temper, we may rest upon it with approval and wait with patience the response from Berlin. The action and utterances of Mr. pry- an may not be so dismissed. Men have been shot and beheaded, even hanged, drawn and quartered, for treason less heinous. The recent Sec retary of State commits not merely treason to the country at a critical mo ment. but treachery to his party and its official head. Whatever his motive, whether political or mercenary, it leaves him altogether indefensible and igroble. Y et it is wholly characteristic. Un feeling and disloyal by nature, inordi nately selfish, avaricious, egotistical, without any sense of the true relations of life and duty, or decent regard for the fitness of things, this commonplace person by force partly of assertion and partly of circumstance gained the front of the stage, and has contrived to re tain his place there against delinquen cies the like of which have submerged many a better man. There was, for example, Benedict Arnold, and, not infrequently, though without sufficient warrant, we find Aa ron Burr put in the same category. We recall that Mr. Clay was sometimes ta ken to task for his card playing and Mr. Webster for his drinking, albeit neither was lacking either in personal or official decorum. Mr. Bryan neither tipples nor gambles, but he possesses a genius for misbehavior and the unbe coming. Going no farther back than the Ben nett will case, when he entered into lit igation with a widow for a share in an estate to which he had no claim, and w is duly, properly and lawfully thrown out of court, and coming down to the last National Democratic Convention, when, to make a deadlock and secure his own nomination, he betrayed both his friend and his instructions, we find nothing in the career of Mr. Bryan to respect or admire. He is one of the very few of our pub lic men who have grown rich as an un successful candidate for office. He has capitalized defeat and made an asset of pretension. Even Mr. Roosevelt has taken "righteousness" for his trade mark, and worked it for more than its value, but Mr. Bryan has exploited his “ideals” in quest of sure and big gate- money. Primarily this latter is the-key to his present proceeding. It is trans parently a trick of the showman. Nor shall we have done of it until the full measure of sensational advertising has been achieved and all possible dates, at increased figures, are filled, even to the last syllable of the Chautauqua circuits. It is problematical whether Mr. Bry an can think that after this he may have any political future. That he might take the field next year against Mr. Wilson is consonant enough, alike with his ill-judging and colossal vanity. But; ontside.the narrow range of his self-conceit, the idea is preposterous. ■> The destiny of- the Democratic party for good or ill is inextricably bound up in the Wilson administration. The party could not escape it if it would. But it will not seek to eseape it. It must and will stand by it. On the issue raised as to Mr. Bry an, however, there can be but two intelligent opinions. The country is overwhelmingly with the President and everlastingly against his re cent Secretary of. State. If all the cranks who roam at larae could be gathered and united into one body they would not constitute anywhere ap proaching a majority of the people. They cannot be corralled. The Kaiser- Americans and the Prohibitionists would find it hard to dock together, whilst the Peace-at-any-price people and the Wo man Suffrage people are already hair splitting betwixt tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee. Hence we may hold po litical speculation, like Wall Street "pointers" and “tips" on horse-racing, as augmenting their absurdity the surer they are. Mr. Bryan sees the main chance quite as clearly as Mr. Pecksniff was wont to see it: » ‘His name is Crummy. And ho wants money.” That is the sum of it. With the mind of a Barnum and the soul of a Tittlebat Titmouse he waited for the opportune moment, and when it arrived he struck, wantonly and shamelessly. Already the summer shows pant for him. The circus tents flap for him. His treason to his country and his chief will be worth quite an hundred thousand dol lars, cash in hand. We shall see wheth er he will throw away any of this mon ey on a fool campaign for the Pres idency next year.

Printing the News to Suit Every body. National, News Bureau. We of ten hear some thoughtless fel low say, "If I was running a paper I would print the news. I don’t care who it might hit. If they don’t want to get into the paper, let them keep out of trouble.” We remember one particular instance in which a similar remark war made. We had, through the pleadings of an old mother and a tearful sister, "killed” a good story concerning the escapade of a rather worthless young fellow. But to his mother and sister he was not worthless, and they pre vailed upon us not to print the item which would disgrace them forever. And we did not print it. So we were accused of cowardice by this critic, and were told that we did not know how to run a paper. In vain we tried to explain that mrny things besides our own personal likes and dislikes entered into our weekly labor. It was no use. He must’print the news. Six months later the same man came sneaking up to our home in the night to plead and beg with us not to print a much worse story in which he himself was mixed up. We had the story, but had no inten tion of 1 ri .ting it, for it was one of those things that it is best, for all con cerned and for the public, to suppress. But our critic had heard that we knew the details, and, with the same unfairness that characterized his first utterance, at once jurtrpedJto the conclu sion that we would chortle with joy over a chance to flaunt such a choice bit of gossip in the faces of our readers Remembering his attitude on the other occasion, we let him squirm a bit. We leminded him of his former state ment arid intimated that he had at that time opened our eyes. ‘‘We would publish the news. If anyone did net want to get into the paper, let them keep out of trouble." He remembered. He admitted that he had so express ed himself. But he was wrong, he said. And this case was different. Moreover, he was a prominent man — and married—and he had a family —and all of the stuff that every editor hears when someone gets into trouble. Well, thestory was not printed'. It never would have been. But we feel sure, that our critic believes that the only thing that kept it out was his "prominence” ahd "influence.” No, dear friend: about the only ele ment that was total'y ignored in com ing to our decision was you, yourself.
