SOCIAL GOSSIP
The coming of the circus Tuesday will rejuvenate many Augustans.
It is an event that is always anticipated with almost as much plea
sure by the older folk as the little people, and there is always a. big
crowd ready for the annual affair. The society element will figure largely
in it this season, and already a number of theatre circus parties are be.
ing arranged for the evening.
Augusta women, those so fortunate as to personally own an auto
mobile, or have one In the family, are eagerly anticipating the Automo
bile Parade which will be one of the features of the Georgia-Carolina
Fair. The parade will be given under the auspices of the Home Com
fort Society. Mrs. Warren Walker is chairman of the committee, which
has the parade in charge, and that it will be a magnificent success goes
without saying.
In addition to the many Augusta cars and those from nearby vicin
ities that will be entered—many of which will be driven by the owners •
there will be a number of entries from Atlanta, Savannah, Macon and
other sister cities. With a view of facilitating the decorations of the cars,
Mrs. Walker is now in communication with one of the Western houses
that manufacture paper flowers, and will soon receive a large shipment,
which will be sold to those who wish to enter their cars.
The marriage of Miss Zailee Rhodes and Mr. Anderson Sibley of Co
lumbia. S. C., will be a pretty event of Wednesday evening, taking place
at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs, Elizabeth Rhodes, 102 Greene
Btreet, at half-after eight o’clock. The ceremony will he performed by
Rev. Joseph Sevier and will be attended by a large number of friends.
Miss Rhodes' beauty will be accentuated by a gown of duchesse
satin with an overdress of duchesse lace, *and will be worn with veil
and orange blossoms. She will be attended by her sister, Mrs. A. R. M.
Mobley, of Springfield, S. C., as matron-of-honor, and Miss Hula Dowling,
of Varnville S C., as maid-of-honor. Miss Elise Wyld Beattie, of Char
leston, S. C* and Miss Estelle Sibley will be her two bridesmaids. The
house decorations will be in green and pink and the attendants will
wear pink messaline gowns veiled in pink chiffon and will carry pink
roses.
Mr. John Rheney will be the groom’s best man.
After the ceremony, a buffet supper will be served and later the
young couple will leave for a Northern bridal trip before going to Co
lumbia, their future home.
As has been announced before in these columns, the Paint and Pow
der Club will present "A Bachelor's Romance” at the Grand on Tues
day night, November 21st, and all arrangements have been made accord
ingly. This will probably be the best performance the club has ever
given. It will certainly be the Prettiest and most charming play, and
those who know what the club has done in the past are certain this
talented organization will outshine any previous attempts.
A feature of “A Bachelor’s Romance" will be the fact that in this pro
duction the club will for the first time use scenery especially for this
performance. It has been contracted for with a celebrated firm of scenic
artists of New York. It is probable this is the first time any such thing
has ever been done by any amateu r dramatic association in Georgia;
possibly in the entire South.
It goes without saying that the Paint and Powder Club will have
the largest crowd to see them at their next play that they have ever had.
• i also it goes without saying that society will arrange Its social
so as not to have any conflicting dates with "A Bachelor’s Ro
mance,” or. Tuesday night, November 21st
Interesting among the November weddings will be that of Miss Maria
Gardelle and Mr. John Robert Lewis, formal announcement of which is
made today. Miss Gardelle is the elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. A.
Gardelle, and is a dainty, petite blonde, exquisitoly proportioned and of
such delicate coloring that she is not unlike a piece of Dresden ware.
Personally she is gracious, sweet, and most womanly, and has an unusu
ally large circle of friends, who are demoted to her.
Mr. Lewis is only an Augustan by adoption, but this fact is lost sight
of. as lie 1 so thoroughly identified with Augusta and Augustans that
be is claimed as one. Mr. Lewis is connected with the Gardelle Drug
Company and is held in the most cordial esteem by all who know him.
The marriage will be a beautiful affair, taking place on November
the twenty-second, at the family residence on Telfair street. Rev. G.
Sherwood Whitney will officiate and the occasion will be graced by a
large number of friends.
The friends of Mrs. Argo, and they are many, will be Interested in
learning that she has a story in a recent number of The Standard, a Bap
tist newspaper, entitled, “The Life Message of ‘Ole Miss.’ ”
It is so sweet and dainty and deliciously clean that when one finishes
reading it one's lungs are filled with redolent air and the golden sun
light of that beautiful section of Florida fronting on the St. John. It is
the story and wonderful effect of a life apparently made hopeless and that
is yet so full and strong and helpful that all who come within Its radi
us come are cheered and uplifted.
Augusta friends of Mrs. Edwin Grey Tillotson of Cleveland, Ohio, will
be shocked and grieved to learn of her death, which occurred yester
day, the result of injuries received from an accident while driving.
Mrs. Tillotson, as was very generally known, was an expert horsewoman,
and frequently handled her own horses. She was out driving with a spir
ited pair and, while rounding a corner, the wheel of the vehicle caught
in the railroad track and upset the vehicle. She was thrown out and
the horses, running away, she was dragged for some distance. AA'hen
help reached her she still had the lines in her hands. Stunned and bruis
■ <1 and broken she was staken to the hospital and although her injuries
were most painful It was not apprehended that there was any internal
injury, but while the details of her death have not yet been learned, It
is supposed that there must have been internal Injuries.
Mrs. Tillotson, with her attractive little daughter Helen and her two
nieces, the Misses Perry, spent several winters on the Hill, and their
home was the center of much social activity. The sad calamity which
has resulted in her death is the occasion of unfeigned sorrow and the
tenderest of sympathy is extended to her greatly bereaved family and to
Mr Tillotson, who is also so pleasantly known here.
