FIDELITY CLASS ENTERTAINS
On Monday, Feb. 10, the Fidelity
cla.-> of the Methodist Sundav school
held a meeting. This meeting was
no stifT affair, hut an intermingling
of social and business affairs.
When they were vastly enjoying
themselves by laughing, talking and
jokine, the meeting was called to order
by the president, and also the
hostess of the afternoon, Miss Inez
Stalvey. To the disappointment of
everyone five members were discovered
to be absent. However, this was
the only cloud to darken the horizon.
The plans of setting a permanent
date for each meeting and a means
of obtaining money for a frame for
the certificate of the Fidelity class
were discussed. A solution of the former
was to be the Monday after the
third Sunday of each month; and a
solution of the latter will interest
the public very much as it was to sell
candies?homemade?one day out of
each week, either at the Pastime
Tbentre or Piatt's Pharmacy.
After the completion of the business,
and the writing of the minutes
by the secertary, Miss Blanche Taylor.
the hostess and Miss Luly Sweet
ouietly left the room. Pretty soon
they returned, bearing a tray of excellent
hot tea with crackers, a very
suitable selection for the weather.
One visitor, Mr. Derrick Stalvey,
graced the meeting. He furnished
sorre very enjoyable music.
To chime in with the pleasant afternoon
a "Goodbye" song was played
while the class was departing.
THEY GET FINES
Tom Newkirk and his wife, Mandy
Newkirk, colored, and Mary Brown,
also colored, were all up before the
Mayor's court a few days ago charged
with disorderly conduct. Tom was
cleared of the charges, but was fined
in the sum of $2.00 for contempt of
court during the trial. Mandy Newkirk^
was fined in the sum of $15.00,
arid Mary Brown got a fine of $10.00.

NO WOMAN IN
THIS WEDDING
Recent entertainments put on in
Conway have excited no little interest,
for the reason that business men,
business women, and staid men and
women of no particular lines of business
joined forces in producing something
far above the average of functions
of thjs kind. . In .all cases the
proceeds have been given to the fund
which is being raised for the erection
of one of the largest and most
complete Sunday school plarfts ever
erected by any church. The fund is
already assuming large proportions
from all indications, and soon, by the
use of other kinds of donations, the
contract Will he let for the construction
of the new building for the Conway
Methodist church, consisting of
.1 large addition and this connected
un with the old Methodist church
building in such a way as to make the
new and completed whole look about
the same as if it had been made that
way at first.
First among the successful entertainments
was the Tom Thumb Wedding.
That w.is about four weeks
ago, and took place at the Pastime
Theatre. It is past history and we
will leave it to say something about
another and more recent display of
home talent in acting on the stage.
This latest is "The Wedding Without
a Woman," and it was carried out to
Perfection at the Pastime on last
Tuesday night.
This iatest type of wedding was
thoroughly advertised and there was
one of the best crowds ever assembled
at this popular movie theatre to see
a play by amateurs.
This play was so funny that it began
to evoke laughs long before the
stage was ever set. Not a single
woman?or married one either?was
in the whole make up as you will see
directly when the cast of characters
is presented. S"ch a bride, and such
a bridegroom! Who ever!
Shades of old Mutt and JefT! We
call you to witness that here in Conw.nv
you have been outdone. The
bride was Miss Angelina Slim, consisting
of nothing more than the near
two hundred and fifty pounds of Charley
Scarborough. Could there have
been a more cute little bride? Let the
telephone central answer. The bride
groom was Mr. Josephus Tufat. It
is a little secret, too good to tell until
afterwards, but this party to the contract
who appeared rather conspicirancnrt
r\f liio Iqplr flf WRS
uy x ^aovii vi mo v? .
none other than E. L. Smith; and it
is with pleasure that we correct a hip:
mistake that took place in printing
the programs where it was stated that
the bridegroom had been throe times
a widower, for the fact is that Mr.
Smith has not been married except
once. He made up in tallness for nil
that he lacked in wideness, and his
awkwardness was sublime from the
standooint of all those who wanted a
good laugh and were not disappointed.
C. B. Dusenbury filled the place of
the minister to tie the knot, but he is
too good a teller of stories to remain
long in a pulpit position. He has had
his chance.
Th? maids (all men of course) displayed
their little peculiarities without
seeming to try. Miss Vanity, A.
W. Barrett, tried to see over his glasses;
Miss Hytone, S. F. Gasoue, tried
to be as busy with his hands as the
busy corner on a court day; Miss Cutie,
V. F. Piatt, started to call attention
to hot drinks at the wrong time;
Miss Little, A. Gasque, had fenders
like a tin Lizzie, and during all this
time the groomsmen, M. R. Smith and
Mr. Work more, L. D. Moore, all looked
as if they had been sent for and
could not come. Let us hope that the
blankness of their faces formed no index
to the blankness and bleakness of
their hearts. They wished for other
company.
The daintiest ring bearer was Ike
Long, the man who can spin a Ford
on the coldest morning we have had
this winter without the nece*sitv or
retarding the spark. This little girl
promises to be a whopper by the time
she is twenty-two.
The maid of honor, Dr. McCormick.
nf fUo fUmoAn rnllooro QPni TT1 h O C
VJ 1 tll^ VIVIIIDVII \yv/?.x^w, ?
cholera fame, was not in the least particular,
as we could see, in bestowing
her smiles; but we understand that
this young lady is not realty a candidate
for matrimony.
Such a pity that the dear little
flower girls forgot their parts and
could only display blushes on their
fair young cheeks. We promise that
these young tots will develop later
on. Over it all Mr. Hightower kept
a careful watch while he acted a
man's part, that of the best man at
the wedding. He has the promise of
being able at some time to attend a
different kind.
The remainder of the cast of characters
had minor parts to play in the
entertainment. ELach character showed
careful training and more than the
average ability on the stage.
Those remaining characters were as
follows:

M ss Anxious, C. Sessions; Miss
Lovely, Tom Harrelson; Miss Bashful,

THE HORRY HERALD, OOKWA
PARKER-SMITH
A marriage, beautiful in its simplicity
and of interest to the many
friends of the contracting parties,
was that of Miss Ethel Parker and
Mr. H. W. Smith, which was solemnized
at the home of Dr. and Mrs. V. F.
Piatt, "Pineacre." on Elm stfe^t at
3:00 o'clock on Wednesday, Feb. 14th.
The impressive ring ceremony was
performed by the Rev. W. L. Parker,
cousin of the bride, assisted by Dr.
J. C. Atkinson, the pastor of the bride
and groom.
The nuptial music was rendered by
Mrs. V. F. Piatt, Lohengrin's Wedding
March being played for the ertterance
of the wedding party, proceeding
which 4<0, Promise Me" and
"Constancy" were sung by Mrs. A. K.
finlHfinph "Tn n WilH 1frtv-a '
" % *? ? A 1/ I.? WW ( ? V? A?V/k)Vl TV do
played softly during the ceremony.
The first to enter was little Margaret
Smith, niece of the groom, wearing
a dainty frock of pink organdy,
who carried the ring hidden in the
heart of a rose. The bride entered
with her maid of honor, Miss Azalee
Bledsoe, of Edgefield, and was met at
the improvised altar by the groom,
and Mr. Clayton Gasque, who acted
as best man.
The maid of honor was dressed in
a gown of brown crepe back satin,
which was simple but elegantly fashioned
with an uneven hemline. She
wore a picture hat of gold lace and
carried pink carnations. The bride
was lovely in a tan Poiret twill coatsuit,
embroidered in brown, with accessories
of tan and brown. Her
close-fitting hat of tan was gracefully
draped with a brown veil. Her bouquet
was of Bride's roses tied with
tulle streamers.
Mrs. Piatt entertained at an informal
reception immediately following
the ceremony. Assisting her in entertaining
the guests were Mrs. W. L.
Parker, and Mrs. F. C. Toda. Miss
Johnnie Atkinson served punch.
The decorations used throughout
the house were lovely," Suggesting
spring. In the living room, where the
ceremony was performed, ferns were
banked to form a background for the
altar, which was tastefully entwined
with ivy. Low bowls of japonicas
were the cut flowers used in the living
room and in the back parlor and
dining room, which were thrown en
suite, yellow .and whjte narcissus
- J iiru.'i. i. ... I
were useu. vriiite itipers were uum*
ing on the mantel.
Mr. Smith and'his bride left on the
afternoon train for a short wedding
trip and on their return will be at
home at the Hotel Grace.
The bride, who is a beautiful young
woman of charming personality and is
very popular socially; is a native of
Whi>ham, G.a., having recently come
to South Carolina to teach in the public
schools. She is a gifted musician
ard possesses a sweet soprano voice.
The groom has a wide circle t'of
friends. Tie is a native of this county
and engr.ged in business in this city.
