McCook=Beall

Cook and Mr. T. A. Beall, which oc
curred at the home of the bride’s
parents in this city, Wednesday, Feb
ruary 28, 1912, at 3 o'clock, was an
event of much social interest. The
home was beautifully decorated with
vines, ferns and cut flowers.
The bride wore a most becoming
suit of tan and carried pink carna
tions.
Mrs. Beall was one of Irwinton’s
most popular young ladies.
Mr. Beall represents one of the old
est and best families of this county,
and is a young man of sterling worth.
Mr. and Mrs. Beall left immediate
ly for their new home near Bethel
church.
The out-of-town guests were: Mr.
and Mrs. Oscar Kinney, Mrs. Skellie,
Miss Hulda Skellie of Macon, Doctor
Kinney of Gainesville, Fla.; Mrs. Ola
Peavy and Miss Minnie Sue Peavy,
of Unadilla; Miss Mamie Hugjies of
Toomsboro; Mr. and Mrs. Walter
Spears of near Jeffersonville; Mr.

The Bridal Hour.
(Written for the marriage of Mr.
Thomas A. Beall and Miss Fannie-Mc-
Cook, by the groom's sister, Nobie T.
Beall.)
The blossoms are banked and the
garlands are hung,
And the hour fpr the bridal its soft
chime has rung.
While we wait for the step of the
bride at the door,
On Hymen's fair altar a libation I’d
pour.
Let frivolous jest and false mirth be
banned,
For holy the ground upon which we
now stand;
True love is of God —by its mystical
power /
Was the miracle wrought which hal
lows this hour —
The union of soul unto soul, making
one —
One spirit, one purpose, one life
course to run.
There is nought upon earth more
beautiful found
Than the rite which unites those in
true marriage bound.
For cur King Himself chose it to
picture to men
Himself and His church, in His glo
rious reign,
The relation so sacred, so faithful,
so sweet.
So interdependent, is a symbol com
plete.
From the trunk o's the tree, new
branches bud forth,
The new ear of wheat from the old
in the earth;
From’ a slip of the old vine, another
vine grows,
A new rose blooms out from an ear
lier rose;
And this home, where we’ve met,
does but life’s law obey
When it yields for earth’s blessing a
new home, today;
Then mar not the hour by one sor
rowful tear;
Though a deep joy and tender, yet
but joy belongs here.
For the home is God's stay for the
strength of the race.
His School where He trains awkward
lives into grace.
How the brave lover’s hopes and the
bride's tender dreams
All circle around where their hearth
fire gleams!
And what though the real way prove
prosy and hard,
The rose-tinted visions be broken and
marred;
If love in each heart is unselfish and
true
If that home be a temple where each
day, anew,
Unto God is the service of fearless
faith given,
Not in vain have they dreamed, not
in vain have they striven;
For new aims and new ideals, in
loftier mould;
Will grow from these first fair visions
they hold.
When fond hopes are failing and dark
clouds hang o’er,
Then faith seeks the better things
God holds in store;
Though the details of living seem sor
did, sometime,
Yet, for ‘ loves sake" endues them
with beauty sublime;
And pain and privation, love's price
less worth prove,
For sharing them deepens and puri
fies love.
The tenderest memories that human
hearts hold
Are the every-day home scenes, where
love kept the fold.
Then here’s to the home that is
founded today!
And here’s to the weal of the build
ers alway!
May their efforts, united, achieve
more of good '
Than ever their separate laborings
could!
The blossoms are banked and the
garlands are bung,
And the hour for the bridal its soft
shime has rung.
And the JMther whose own hand
these two hearts united,
Will tenderly watch while their life
vows are plighted
In blessed benediction; His presence
will lend
While hearts echo softly, Amen and
Amen!
