There were many interesting exhibits at the fair last week, and when it comes down to "brass tacks" about it, there was nothing more attractive than the young women, yes and some of the older ones, too. The ladies did not think or perhaps even dream that they were on exhibition, however. Those who needs money find a hard time in getting it owing of course to the tight times brought about by the European war. Frequently loans are It . % m Deing requested irom individuals and bank, and each and every one is turned down owing to the condition of the markets. W. J.

Next came Mrs. S. W. Benson and took her place on the rostrum Then came the bride, leaning on the arm of her sister, Miss Virginia Burbage. As they ncared the rostrum a door was opened by Mrs. E. S. C. Baker, and Dr. Catcs with his best man, Mr. E. S. C. Baker, met the bride in front of the pastor, Rev. T. G. Phillips, where they were united in marriage. During the ceremony "Hearts and Flowers" was softly played. As the strains of Mendelshon's Wedding March floated through the air, the bride and groom marched out. Then came Mr. Baker with Miss Burbage. Mrs. S. W. Benson next passed down the aisle. Last came Mr. Walsh and Mr. McNeill. The bride wore a traveling suit of blue chiffon broadcloth, with hat and gloves to match, and carried a large bouquet of bride's roses tied with white tulle.

Up to a short time before her marriage she held the position of stenographer with the large business firm of Burroughs & Collins Co. tShe filled this position for several years. Her kind and gentle disposition and her devotion to her duties, both in her position, and in other ways endeared her to a large oircle of friends who join in wishing her a happy wedded life. Dr. LeRoy Cates is well known to the business men of Conway, having filled the position of manager with the Conway Drug Co., here for several years. Lately he moved to Kingstree where he is manager of the Kingstree Drug Co., one of the livest business concerns of that town. He has many friends here who regretted to see him move to another town.

After the arrest and detention of George Cannon, and his two brothers, Jim and Walker, last week charged with taking goods from the store of W. Boyd Jones, a search warrant was applied for and was issued by Magistrate W. H. Chestnut. An officer, accompanied by several other men, went to the Cannon residence some three miles from Conway. The mother of the boys lives in one house and the boys stayed in another house in the bark of the field. A small quantity of goods was found in the house occupied by Mrs. Cannon, and quite a quantity of miscellaneous articles of merchandise in the house where the boys live. The cost value of the goods found in both of these houses amounted to the sum of $110.00 in round numbers. The party went out to the place in the night, and returned to Conway at about d.oO in the morning. On last Wednesday morning the Cannon boys wore all called into the town court before Mayor II. P. Little to hear the charge pevferrcd against them for violation of the town ordinances, the sections relating to stealing being involved. While they were being arraigned John H. McCaskill, constable under W. II. Chestnut, appeared with a warrant issued in the name of the State of South Carolina, and it was stated that the prisoners would be turned over to him as soon as they had answered to the charge brought against them by the Town of Conway. They pleaded not guilty to the charges perferred by the town, thrOUirh their nttnvnev Mr W C Singleton, and their trial was fixed for last Monday morning at 10 o'clock ORDERED HANDS OFF. People Very Curious .Indeed .About the Curtis Flyer Last Week. Last week the Curtis Aeroplane was hauled up in its various boxes from the express office to the fair grounds. The pen that was intended to close it in from the curious was not completed and the machinicians had to place it at the far side of the grounds in an open space for the purpose of ereetih'g it in readiness for action and for making repairs. The men, however, were auie to no out little 011 the machine, until the pen had been finished, owing to the constant care and trouble they had to give to keep the people from pulling every strap and \yire and cable off of it. The man in charge of the machine had to tell several to keep their hands off it. , It was curious to watch the "Smart Aleck" who would come up in a crowd march to the machine ahead of the others, and then proceed to tell the audience all there was to know about the flying machine, and the flying business. Several such as these got their walking tickets from the owner of the machine, and in language that would be unbecoming in a Sunday School class at that. , Besides the "Smart Alecks" who already knew all there ever was to know about aviation, there was the man and also the woman that wanted to learn just a little about the flying art, and had come to the county fair, very evidently to leam it. The questions they put could not be answered by the greatest experts in the business today. Some small amounts of work was done on the machine while in the open field, but by the early afternoon the fence to inclose the machine durl'nnr -foil* tunc r">r?rv\ nlntnil onrl flin V11V XtVAX ??
