NEWS AND HERALD PUBLISLEl WEEELY, -BY WINNSRoI0o PRINTING CO. J. FRNANK FO0SUE, - - - EDITOR TERMS, IN ADVANCE : One Year....................$1.50 Six Months.................... .75 WINNSBORO, S. C. Wednesday, June 7, 1905 "Make hay while the sun shines" is an old adage that is full of wholesome truth. But in order to have hav to cut when the .sun is shining, it is best to plant something for mak ing hay. Therefore, be sure to sow peas in abundance. Notiing as yet has come of the suggestion that steps be taken for organizing a chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy at this place. It will not do for Winnsboro to be behind in honor ing the veterans. It only remains for some one to take the initial step. The State summer school at Clemson College promises to have an enrollment of more than 500. Applications for rooms have been coming at a very rapid rate. Those teachers. who propose to take advantage of this opportu nity for professional advance ment should send in their applica tion at once. Fairfield should be well represented at this State gathering of teachers. Those teachers who do not attend the State summer school should at tend the Catawba district summer school to be held at Yorkville, June 15, notice of which will be found in another column. The college commencement sea son is now in full blast. The large graduating cla4sses of the present year are suggestive of the increased interest in education in this State within the past few years. With so many we ll equipped young men and young women entering upon the duties of life, there are better hopes for the development of the State from every standpoint. The greatly increased attendance upon the colleges also suggests the need for more and more high grade preparatory schools so as to meet this growing demand. The en largement of Mt, Zion at this time is a step in the direction of sup plying this need. The best profits are not always direct. For instance, in addition to the direct profits, there are also the indirect profits that come from the improvement ol the land. Every farmer should diligently apply himself to the problem of making his lands more productive. There is ne better way for accomplishing this desired end than by the sow ing of peas. With this great land restorer so cheap at this time, there is no reason why thousands of acres of land in Fairfield should not be upbuili during the present season. Sow ing peas in drills or broadcast is the kind of farming that is needed nlow. The enlargement of Mt. Zion Institute by erecting a dormitory on the lot adjoining the present principal's honme is now fully as sured. It is rarely ever that an en terprise starts out with more rea sonable assurances of success thar does this. The unanimity witla which the citizens responded tc the appeal made to them to as sist in making this enlargemeni possible will count no little it again winning for Mt. Zion thal place of prominence among pre. paratory schools it so long held So instead of looking backward always, let us face about with thE determination to make the Mt Zion of the future more glorious than the Mt. Zion of the past. The establishing of the board. ing department in connection witi: the Mt. Zion Institute is in nc wise antagonistic to the move muent of the public school trus tees of the county for establish ing a county industrial higlb school. The policy of tbe twc schools wrould be so distinct as to necessitate their being kept separate. This does not mean, however, that Winnsboro will not lend its support for the establish. ment of the industrial school. For that she will surely do, and ifithe effort to establish the in dustrial school succeeds, she wil] be on hand with the necessary inducements for having it located at the county seat, where it would motproperly belong. For a Farmers' Institute. In compliance with the notiec sent out by the Clemson authe-ri ties, a petition signed by fifteen farmers has been sent to them requesting that they hold a farm ers' institute at or near Winus boro the last week in July or the B9Ilinger-Quattlebaum. The most brilliant social event of the season was the~ marriage I: Thursday Evening of Miss Bessie \ Mae Quattlebaum, oldest daugh- J ter of Dr. B. J. Quattlebaum, and d Mr. Robert Swaffield Bollinger of i: Columbia. The Baptist chareh t] was most beautifully decorated ii in green and white. Handsome f ferns and palms were banked c together in a pyramid on the't pulpit, while garlands of white < roses and evergreens were grace- a fully swung from pillar to pillar. I The entire church was carpeted I in white, giving a most beautiful effect. Mrs. Walter E. Wilkins of I Columbia entertained the waiting friends with several choice selec tions on the organ. When the first notes of the Lohengrin bridal chorus, rendered by a quartette of beautiful voices, pealed forth, an expectant hush fell upon the audience as the ushers, Messrs Will Evans, Henry Cathcart, W. C. Swaffield and Claude M. Lide, all of Columbia, entered singly, taking their positions in front of the pulpit. The bride maids entered from the side doors of the pulpit, crossing a.nd de seending the steps. First came Miss Emmie McGee of Greenville, who appeared queenly in a handsome gown of blue chiffon over blue taffeta. She was fol lowed by Miss Eloise Bollinger and Miss Katherine Kellam. Miss Bollinger a sister of the groom, was lovely in an elegant gown of pink chiffon over pink taffeta with point lace: Miss Kellam of Richmond, Va., was also beautifully attired in pink chiffon over pink taffeta. The bridesmaids carried bouquets of wtite roses. The color schQine of the costumes was the same as was used at the marriage of the bride's mother. The little flower -girls, Belle Quattlebaum of Columbia and Mary Seigler, daintily dressed in white silk' and carrying white roses, preceded the maid of honor, Miss M. E. Quattlebaum, sister of the bride. .iss Quattlebaum was pretty and graceful in an elegant white accordion-plaited silk and carried an armful of pink roses. Lastly came the charming bride with her dame of honor, Mrs. Theodore Quattlebaum of Batesburg, who was handsome in white chiffon over pink taffeta. The groom attended by his best man, Mr. Charlie Bruce of Colum bia, entered from the left of the pulpit, meeting the bride at the foot of the steps. The bride's gown was an ex quisite creation of white embroid ered net over handsome accordion plaited taffeta. The veil was caught with a spray of orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. L. Freeman, assisted by Rev., Jabez Ferris of Batesburg. Throughout the ceremony was heard the soft sweet strains of a duet rendered by Dr. Gordon Quattlebaum and Mrs. Wilkins. To Mendelssohn's wedding march the bridal party left the church and repaired to the home of the bride, where an enjoyable reception was held. The house was beautifully decorated in green and white. An elegant course supper . was served; the color scheme being carried out in the ices. Miss Grace Bailey of Green ville presided gracefully over the frappe bowl under an arch of evergreens. The presents were elegant and numerous, testifying to the great popularity of the young couple. ['he bride is well known in Colum bia, having been the guest of herI uncle, Dr. J. M. Quattlebaum, a aumber of times. She will be reatly missed from the social .ireles of Wjino anid bie 'nany friends re-gre- t. lh-e her.
