WHERE WILL THE WED- i
DING BE? '
Progressive Farmer. j
This is a matter that largely de- I
pends on the number of friends to
be present. |
"I just love a home wedding where j
only my friends will be with me. 1
want to go right from my own home
to the one the man of my choice has
provided for me," said one young
laoy wno is suspected of being en- [,
gaged, to another little maiden whose (
wedding date had been announced. ; <
"Not I," was the answer, "I would s
not feel that 1 was really married unless
the wedding was in the ]
church." ; j
And thus the men of a thousand 1
minds might read the girls of a thou- <
sand and one minds as regards wed- j i
dings. Surely, however, the time of 1
times in which a girl should have ' t
things as she wants them is at her <'
own wedding I s
Let me tell you of four weddings s
I have attended. a
I.?HOME WEDDING. s
When I arrived I saw the minister standing
in the bay window that had i
been transformed into a bower of is
beauty by a profusion if mountain '
laurel. Just as 1 entered the groein u
and his best man took their pieces
before bim. coming from a side rem. s
In a moment four little girls in white ?
came through the crowd of guests "
with write ribbons, marking off an n
aisle for the bride to pass through. P
As they stood still holding the ribbons
Lohengrin's "Wedding March" si
began on the violin, and the bride tl
came down the stairs on the arm of ' fi
her father, passed up the aisle and ! ti
stood before the minister. After the I o
ceremony the bride and groom sim- ' tl
ply turned and received the congrat- ni
ulations of their friends. ! si
Ice cream and cake wore served in u
the dining room bv the bride's vnnne !
friends. Meanwhile the bride had o,
gone upsta!r.; '<> change nor wedding 0(
dress for her g lii.r.-away gown. As js
she earae down the stair^ sue stop- v
ped and threw her bouquet into the g;
group of g."' friends below. The one si
who caught leally was the next ti
bride as tin;*. Moved. b
They rns;ed to *he ear tage to e
find that the horses had been nn- n
hitched and the young men had taken
their places. They were nauled to j
the new home, about half a mile
away, given three cheers and then
prompMv forgotten, while the young
men rushed back with fun and
laughter, each to seek the girl of his
choice and beg her for another disk
of ice cream. ^
II.?A CHURCH WEDDING.
It was a tine wedding, costing
much thought and money. Great
hows of satin ribbon were tied on
pews about half way up the church.

pulpit. Everywhere on the platform j J
were palms and ferns and other (
greenery. An usher escorted each t
invited guest to a seat in front of the v
ribbons, while the uninvited but in- l
terested frinends sat behind. t
The minister took his place, then t
the groom and the best man. Two s
ushers caught the ends of a width of j white
cloth, carried it down the i f'
aisles, making white paths for the j b
wedding party. Lohengrin's "Wed-1 si
ding March" pealed from the organ j w
The party entered from opposite V
aisles, first an usher down each aisle, ii
then the two bridesmaids, dressed in h
soft, pale pink silk gowns, each
carrying a bouquet on her arm, one I
down one aisle and the other down 111
the other, then two more ushers, t<
next the dame of honor (the bride's
married sister) down one aisle and a
the bride's tiny brother dressed in j
white, carrying the ring on a white "
satin pillow down the other, and h
just before the bride, the last of the P
party to enter, came two little girls 1
dressed in white, strewing r?
from baskets on their arms. w
After the ceremony they left just n
as formally as they had entered,
while Mendelssohn's "Wedding tl
March" was being played. The wed- tl
ding party drove to the bride's home. ' tl
where were elaborate refreshments a
and much merriment. The bride and , n
groom went to many Northern cities : b
in their five weeks' wedding trip. a
III.?A WEDDING UNDER THE j g
TREES. | tl
It was the prettiest wedding I ever j w
saw. It was nine o'clock in the j t!
morning. The bride and her father ti
came from an old-fashioned house n
down a pathway outlined by great w
ropes of wild marguerites, to the r'
daisy-covered arbor under oak trees ?
which the bride's parents had planted a
on their own wedding day. There ?
In the dewy morning the wedding
vows were spoken. There was no

Why An Education? 4
\nderson Intelligencer. ^
The college commencement season J
las rolled around again, and soon the 4
land will resound with laudations of 1 (
education as crowds of bachelors of
irts and science and-sweet girl grad- | t
lates formally reach the end.of their | I
school days. Never were there so e
many schools and colleges; never s
inything like the number of students, v
Qur colleges might furnish armies; 1
the high schools are nations in size. p
Yet some neonlft mav nsk "Whv t
lo they want education?" For cer- | e
ainly very little direct use is made
jf the literary knowledge gained in p
school. What college graduate now- s
idcys ever opens a Latin book after
ie leaves school. Possibly not one o
n a hundred. Yet the old-time col- .J
ege graduate read Latin until the li
uid of his days, and frequently car- t
'led his Virgil or Horace around in t
lis satchel. Likewise, in other days li
he English classics were the staple '
liet of educated people. They are ! it
o no longer. The great majority of
tudents take Milton and Dryden in f
n English course just as they would b
wallow a bitter but necessary pill, v
iven Shakespeare is not read these ; w
ays. Most people have him on thei.* e
helves, but practically nobody reads n
im after graduating. The novel | o
ntil recently was the chief literary i
ood of the people, but the novel is tl
wiftly declining in public favor. The I tl
verwhelming majority of us read a
ttle but the newspapers and the h
lagazines. These are the literary
abulum of America. d
Evidently, then, people do not a
trive for an education because of ri
ie pleasure it may afTord. Such j t(
ivolous amusements as moving pic- I
ires and dancing fill the evenings I a
