W. JnAllen. the father of the bride, when lie gave his daughter Miss in Hnatrimony to Lieutenant Yancey Le THE DILLON HI - ?. , "t * News Dtpar Conduct.d by \Y. Ll'is Be the; Get to. fo rmerly of Camp Knox, Tenn. He hit with his bride immediately uftei t he ceremony for San Francisco where they will take ship for the l'hlllipine Islands, where Lieut. LeGotte will be stationed for st rvice These two young people came front two of our largest and tuos' influential families and have hosts of ftLnds and relatives throughout the Pee Dee section. Lieut. LeGette is a graduate oi Wofford College, and after graduating taught school successfully for several years, and when his country called him t'01 duty in the World War he responded at once and has since that time been in "Uncle Sams service." He has been promoted to fiist lieutenant an(j lias been lately assigned to the Phillipines. His bride Miss Sue Allen is one of our ntriut olmrntintr 11 rwl nonnm r\1 iuVtnd young women, with a lovely disposition and will be greatly missed by her many friends in Latta and this section. She attended Coker College and after teaching several years, she accepted a position as book keeper for the Bank of Latta, which position she most efficiently filled until one week before her marriage. Rev. \V. C. Allen pastor of the Baptist church at Dillon performed the ceremony. In the presence of the members of the family only. o A Beautiful Church. Without going into a detailed account of the story of how the Presbyterian church in Dillon came into existence. we wish to call attention to what that church represents. And first of all, it represents a perfect piece of colonial architecture. The writer has studied in detail every feature of the building and finds that it is a modern reproduction of a church that was built an hundred y? ars ago. If it does not anneal to von.! us being a model church, it is because, you were born after many of the' beautiful things in architecture had' passed away, lint if you would travel in sections of the country that were first settled by our ancestors and see what remains of the beautiful, then you'd better appreciate this church. If I am not a poor prophet you will' live to see many churches to be built in the future, in other communities, corresponding, in every detail, with this building. The fact is, such churches are in process of construe-! tion right now. This church represents a great deal of genuine artistic taste; it represents the best days of American civilization, and a justifiable ecclesiastical pride. It is a tnon-: ument to the sacrificial generosity of Dillon and surrounding country, for it was built not only by Presbyter-J, ians, but our liberal brethren of other ] denominations, and citizens of the1] community, gave of their substance cheerfully. They must have realized;, that a Presbyterian church, is one , of the best assets to an\ community; that she always meets others with open arms; that site rcpres? nts a v it! Christian brotherhood; that our conn- , tr> owes to this institution a debt of gratitude for the wonderful influence e.\< rled in founding America. The ( Presbyterian church has written in its constitution a recognition of all other , denominations as:- part of the hotly of , Christ. This building represents the , tintiriii,ic cnei gs and wisdom of its pastor, Il? \. W. li. ,S. Chandh r, who in conceiving tlii.s model plan of a cl.urch, looked into tin* lulure and ( caught a vision of generations worshipping in an ideal colonial church building, worshiping the Lord in the beauty of holiness." In the scriptures we read, "The simplicity that is in Christ Jesus." And so we behold in this building a beautiful simplicity. We trust that the worship may be colonial also, and that as the building is in keeping with the spirit of Christianity, so may the worship correspond with both. It is a building that grows on you! Like some people, the longer you know them the better you like them. I do not know, but I presume that it must have cost forty thousand dollars. But what of that? It is money well spent. And no one will regret having contributed to the general welfare of the community. The very fact that you are interested in this church will have a tendency to maintain a goo(] christian spirit, which seems to animate the minds of the Dillonltes. In unity there Is strength! Congratulating you and also thanking each and all for( Iineir iio?'rai support we remain yours fjaternallv, E. C. Bailey. o Allen-Sherwood Wedding. A wedding characterized by beauty, prominence and impressivenesB waa that of Miss Eunice Allen to Rev. W. B. Sherwood, which took place at Catfish church on Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock. The church under; the efficient direction of Mrs. John; J. Allen was simply but most artis-; tlcally decorated, a green and whitej scheme predominating. Quantities of southern smilax, intertwined with' white, and many graceful ferns were arranged around the altar. Huge baskets of golden chrysanthemums were effectively arranged. In the center of these lovely decorations was a low arch containing numbers of gleaming white tapers giving the interior of the church a most picturesque appearance. Mrs. W. C. Allen, .wearing a beautiful white embroider-' f < UiAl.P, DILI.OV KOVTH CAROLINA ? = tment. .: I a ' i ?d crepe inetlor, play eiK the wedding march and accompaniments to the iieet songs, "At Da^vning," "And Be-' cause," sung by Mrs. B.

First i i. me the ushers down opposite aisles, .! l.n J. Allen, Tracer Allen, John Sherwood and Clarence Allen.Following these came the bridesmaids. Misses Elizabeth Alford and Ruth Spivey, who wore most becoming af-j tc im on dresses or grey canton crepe,! with large picture hats of grey trim-i xned in airy feathers and grey slip-i pers and hose. They carried arms full I cf large polden chrysanthemums. Next came the maid of honor. Miss Florence Allen, who wore a gracefully draped dress of yellow crepe metier, wit h hat of black velvet and feathers, and carried a bouquet of bronze chrysanthemums. The ringbearer little Gyendolyn Allen carried the ring in a large yellow chrysanthemum. Annie May Dew and Francis Mobley were the flower girls and carried rose petals in white baskets which they scattered in the pathway of the bride. They wore dainty accordian pleated organdie dresses. The bride entered on the arm of her brother Rev. B. F. Allen, who gave her away. She was joined by the bridegroom, accompanied bv his best man, his brother, Edwin J. Sherwood' of Conway, and together they ad-1 vanced to the altar. Here the bride's! brother. Rev. W. C. Allen, stood! ready to perform the beautiful and impressive ring ceremony while the' sweet notes of "Huinoresque" were! softly played by Mrs. \V. C. Allen.i The bride was married in her going i away suit or midnight blue tricotine,I a blue velvet hat with grey lace veil I and gray suede shoes. Her bouquet was a corsage of lillies of the valley and orchids. The bride an honor graduate of Coker College, a successful teacher and possesses many fine and estimable traits of a high christian character. She is the youngest daughter of Mr. ?n(| Mrs. W. II. Allen, and it is the regret of the entire community that her marriage removes her from its midst, but as a mission- , ary to Brazil she carries the love and 1 well wishes of all. The bridegroom is | a graduate of Furman, Louisville Theological Seminary, and has taken special courses in his work. He is a missionary to Brazil and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Sherwwood of T.ittle Rock. He is a young man of sterling christian character an,] popular throughout the community.

As 8(>me one standing nearby observed, it was a striking example of cooperative effort. There seemed to be some mis-) understanding between the two men] as to the course they should take and; both were grumbling, but the small boy paid little hot*d to their mutter-; ings and tugged away at his job as he piloted them on toward the A.
