The marriage of Miss Clara May Swords and Mr. Arthur Judson Langford was solemnized at the Baptist church last Tuesday even¬ ing at 6 o’clock, Rev. B. D. Rags¬ dale, of Mercer University officiate mg. The church which was beau tifully decorated with palms.ferns, and golden rod, was filled with rel¬ atives and friend- of the happy couple at the appointed hour. The bridal party entered the churc h to the .-trails of Mendels wedding march sweetly rendered by Mrs. Robt. Hewlitt. Miss Julia Swords, the bride’s sister was maid of honor and Mr. Clyde Langford the groom’s broth er, was best man. The brides maid’s were Miss Fleta Simpkins, Miss Valla Walker, of Social Cii clo, Miss Florede Tuckerand Miss Florence Austin. The groomsmen where Mr. Bee McDonald, Mr. Luther Hollingsworth,' Mr. Dave Phillips, of Lithonia and Mr. Rob Almand. The ushers were Mr. Robt. Hewlitt, Mr, Chas. Gaiiey, Mr. Walter Almand and Mr. Joe Wallis. The bride was beautiful in her wedding gown of ivory satin. Her veil of tulle was held in place by u spray of lilies of the valley. The bridesmaids looked charm¬ ing in gowns of white organdie trimmed in lace and ribbon. Both the bride aud the bridesmaids car¬ ried boquets. Mr. Langford is prominent both in business and social circles here, while the bride as Mi s Clara Swords was one of the most at¬ tractive and popular young ladies of Conyers. The bridal couple left on the evening train for a visit to Now York Washington and other points. The best wishes of a host of friends will go with them on their journey through life. Here is a gem from one of VVm. J. Bryan’s speeches in Maryland the other day: •‘Courage has al¬ ways bt.en admired physical cour¬ age. To my unnd moral courage is. as much above physical courage as man i- above the brute. Mor¬ al coinage is often wanting where physical courage is present, and what this nation needs more than physical courage of its people is the moral cournpo of the citizen who w uId rather die right than livi wrong. 5 > The Work of A Newspaper. I Iu.wn.ta WU«i»«t»,K. C.. recently, Rev. Calvin S. Black *«"• “ ,d! A newspaper . i.- a school . , of , un* selfishness. No other elasB serves : a community so well, and so often for eo little pay, either in cash or appreciation. Every day and night the newspaper is doing free work for the betterment of the community. If a lawyer was called upon by the city tier to do for thee,ty the same a mount and no more valuable writ ing than that which every new. paper does free every day, tne charge would?* *6 or more. If the newspapers were to cease aweek.it would be as da* lonesome as if the pall of an e clipse covered us. and Wilmington would be to tne outside world practically as though she not.” DCflTH. The baby boy of Mr. and Mrs L. B. Still died last Sunday night. The little one had been sick al¬ most the entire summer and des pite the most tender nursing av.d care the baby boy continued feeble and weak. Its death is very sad to its fond par¬ ents, and more sad since it was one of twin boys. The remains of the little one were laid to rest in Kastview cemetery yesterday morning. To the sorrowing parents we ex¬ tend sineerest sympathy. MARRIAGE.
