Mr. Madison B. Tucker and Miss Clio Perry Married in Thomson, Ga. Of great interest to a large num ber of Edgefield friends was the wed ding on last Thursday evening of Mr. Madison B. Tucker and Miss Clio Perry of Thomson, Georgia. The First Baptist church of that place was tastefully decorated, with palms and ferns with large clusters of pink and white hydrangeas around the altar and tall candelabra-throw ing a soft light from the numerous candles on the beautiful scene. Preceding the ceremony a lovely musical programme was rendered by Miss Sarah Gardiner, violinist, cousin of the bride, and Mr. Charlie Curtis and Mrs. B. F. Riley, who sang sev eral appropriate selections. As the notes of Lohengrin's Wed ding March were sounded by the or ganist, Mrs. E. C.

The bridesmaids in dainty pink tulle dresses carried bouquets of pink gladioli and roses and were Miss Elsie Tucker of Conyers, Miss Rosa Gardiner and -Miss Frances Scott. The two little flower girls, Martha West and Eleanor Binns wore lovely pink organdie dresses and scattered white flowers as they preceded the bride who entered with her brother, iMr. Dempsey Binns of Washington. She was met at the altar by the bridegroom attended by his best man, Mr. Mercer Walker of Conyers, the Rev. T. Howard performing the cer emony. The bride wore a handsome dress ^of white tulle and satin entraine over Which her veil arranged 'in cap ef .fect with orange blossoms, fell in graceful folds. Her bouquet, of bride roses and pink orchids was shower ed with lillies of the valley. After the ceremony a reception "was held at the home of the bride's parents where a large number of friends gathered. A salad course and ice cream and cake were served. In the living room a beautiful array of presents was shown and of especial interest were tokens from many of the members of the Sunday school class and Junior B. Y. P.

That is one of the reasons why parents often make great personal sacrifices to educate their children for m". ? congenial work than they themselves have enjoyed and interesf in his pupils in one of the few com pensations for the trials and insuffi cient financial returns of a teacher's career. To make the principles of thrift effective to the child, they must be put into constant practice both at home and in school and must have a direct connection with his daily ilfs. Every educator realizes the tr? mendous value of teaching thrift and industry to little children both for their immediate benefit and in anti cipation of their future success. Par ents who have not had a training in personal economy are anxious to have their children realize that the practice of thrift and an appreciation for the value of money are essential to-success and self respect. Thrift principles enter into every relation ship and problem of daily life. I Training in economy is equally necessary for the child of parents in poor or moderate circumstances and for those who are rich. In our com plex American life it is possible that the poor child of today may be the rich man of tomorrow, and that the child born with a silver spoon in his mouth may sometime be thrown upon his own resources. It is never too early in a child's training to begin the teaching and practice of thrift. Tales of the habits of animals and insects furnish many examples of this quality. The simple story of the red squirrel will interest any child. Tell him that before cold weather begins the red squirrel builds a comfortable and durable home, that during the summer and fall he gathers nuts and acorns to provide food for the winter time when snow covers the ground. Con trast the habits of the spendthrift rabbit, who saves nothing and! who consequently suffers from hunger. The thrift and enterprise of the bee and the ant may be contrasted with the laziness pf the grasshopper, I and,, the butterfly. The Book of Prov- j erbs and Aesop's Fables contain many a story which shows the stu pidity of extravagance and laziness. Thrift may also be taught by the careful use of materials, in the ??school room by economy in handling fchalk, clay, paper and other articles, and in the home by careful use of J furniture and the elimination of I waste in household necessities such as fuel and light. In every walk through the streets to and from school, material for consideration -presents itself. The ex ample of the fire department, a source of interest to every child, may be used to show how loss of life and property is prevented. The public cans for rubbish are another public economy, for by their use we de crease the duties of the street-sweep er. The means of practicing the prin ciples of thrift are numerous. Child ren may be encouraged to buy the govenment Thrift Stamps issued bjr the United States Treasury, or to have accounts in Postal or Savings Banks. Through these channels the systematic saving of money may be brought home to the child in an at tractive and profitable way, and the sums so saved conserved and invest ed. Americans have been called a na tion of economic illiterates. They are spendthrifts by habit. It may not be possible to eradicate the vice of ex travagance in this present generation but it can.be stamped out of the boys and girls of the future by continued instruction. The influence of economy is far reaching, and instruction in thrift is a personal, a municipal, and a patri otic duty which both parents and teachers owe to children, the com munity and the country.
