Brown-Talbert
Engagement An
nounced At Party
One of the most delightful af
fairs of the season was a party
given by Mrs. W. P. Parks, Jr., and
Mrs. M. S. Faulkner Saturday af
ternoon in compliment to Miss
Elizabeth Brown, bride-elect, whose
engagement was announced in a
unique manner.
Guests assembled in the living
room where red roses were arrang
ed attractively in the background
for the tables where Hearts were
played.
As the gifts were presented sud
denly the wedding march was be
gun by Little Jan Parks at the
piano. Pat Parks then entered
dressed as a Western Union mes
senger and delivered telegrams to
the guests announcing the engage
ment of Miss Brown and Mr. J. N.
Talbert whose wedding will be
solemnized in the local Baptist
church on July 9th.
The bride-elect and members of
her wedding party were then
seated at the beautiful lace cover
ed dining table which had for its
centerpiece white roses in a silver
container, and flanked with tall
white tapers in silver candle-
holders. A beautiful sal£td plate in
the wedding colors was then
served. Each plate held miniature
white corsages attached to silver
wedding bells placed on the white
tea napkins stamped with “Lib-
John Nix”, in silver.
The honor guest was given a
salt spoon brooch in her chosen
pattern of sterling.

The Meriwether Home Demon
stration Club met last Friday af
ternoon, May 10, at the home of
Mrs. W. W. Childs, with eight
members and eight visitors pres
ent. Mrs. L. C. Rich, president,
presided, and after the usual pre
liminaries, introduced Mr. W. W.
Childs who gave a splendid talk
on Conservation of Forest and
Why. It was brief and to the
point, and was very illuminating.
Judge Wm. Edgeworth Muse of
Dallis, Texas, accompanied by
Mesdames P. B. Blalock, Jr., and
B. B. Jones of Edgefield, came in
on a visit to the Childs friends,
and Judge Muse who has traveled
“on all of the continents and the
seven seas many times” graciously
gave of his wealth of travel and
experiences. His manner of speak
ing is so original and unique that
one travels by his side whither he
wills to lead. King Solomon’s
building of the Temple, his dedi
catory prayer, were poems of
Scripture from his lips. The
“Morning Wall” of Jerusalem was
a sharp sad actuality to the listen
ers, while the journey from Judea
to Jerusalem, as trod by his feet,
became a well known spot to all of
us who heard anew the story of
David and Goliath, a veritable
fairy tale. We sat entranced, and
were ready to enjoy a visit to
King Tut’s tomb, where Judge
Muse went on invitation of an
English nobleman who was at the
head of the archaeological excava
tions; when his friends reminded
him they must return to Edgefield.
We thank Mrs. Blalock and Mrs.
Jones for graciously bringing him
to us. A man of such rare ac
complishments, such scholarly at
tainments with the chivalry of the
deep South woven into his being,
inherited from his ancestry of old
Edtrefield.
Miss Bell was very kind to yield
her Demonstration time. Miss
Helen Bell was a welcomed visitor,
coming with our agent. Miss Ma
tilda Bell.
