Writing Up Wedding
Most newspaper men shrink from
the task of writing up a swell wedding,
and prefer to pass that responsible
duty to a female society editor.
Yet there are exceptions. Occasionally
an dditor is found who can paint
word pictures of nuptial events that
any lady reporter might envy.
We Just discovered one like that
who appears to be hiding his great
talent in an obscure Kansas town
while he ought to be holding down a
big city job. Here is a sample of his
literary ability, which proves our
point.
? - was a wonderful wedding. The
girt was as sweet as any girl who
ever lived, but modern. As she
walked up the able, her lips lightly
tilted at the corners with a happy
smile, dhe wag a picture of modest
beauty. Her fiimly wedding gown1
and gossamer veil floated around her
fair blonde head like* halo. She was
as nearly an angel as girls get to be
in this worku A? the altar as she
passed from her father, thtf man she
had always loved to the other man
to whom she wotfld devoto the rest
^ her ?%W dainty slipper touched
a potted lily resting on the floor and
turned it ovbr. Smiling again, she
turned to the dear old pastor waiting
at the chancel and said, "That was a
hell of a plane to put a lily."?Florence
Herald.
Mrs. W. L. Goodale Is Hostess
Mrs. W. L. Goodale entertained at
bridge Tuesday afternoon complimenting
a number of Camden's fair
visitors. - In a setting of pink gladiolus
that bloomed everywhere and
made a most pleasing decoration,
seven tables were arranged for the
game. Mrs. Ralph Shannon won high
acore pftge and Mrs. Edward McDowell
the consolation; After cards
cake and sherbert were served.

friends was that of Miss Mary Francis
