Acolytes were Conrad Grimes and Carl Thomas. The bride wore a gown of pale ivory satin fashioned with a shallow bateau neckline with scalloped edge embroidered in seed pearls and crystals, and epaulettes of embroidery. The bodice was fitted, the long sleeves ended in points over the hands, and the bouffant skirt ended in a bell-shaped train. Her tiered veil of im ported silk illusion was worn with a coronet of twisted satin entwined with pearls. Her only ornament was a cameo on a single strand of pearls which had belonged to her maternal great-grandmother. She carried a cascade bouquet of white roses, split carnations and an orchid. Mrs. Henry Meadors Young, Jr., of Clinton, S. C., matron of honor and only sister of the bride, wore a white satin dress fashioned with a fitted bodice, tulip neckline, three-quarter length sleeves, and a full skirt of net.

By Ted Kjettmg Our wild sheep herds are not in very healthy shape from the standpoint of numbers. After years of protection, their num bers still decrease. Game man agement men are puzzled about what to do. It is a grand ani mal, living among grand sur roundings, and we hope some one finds the solution soon. The Rocky Mountain bighorn ranges through the Rockies, from British Columbia and Al berta, southward through Mon tana, Wyoming and into the Colorado Rockies and New Mexico. Subspecies of the big- horntype shee extend into Mex ico; these include several kinds of so-called desert sheep. The true Rocky Mountain big horn is a sturdily built animal, sure-footed, fleet — even in laces where a man must pick is way with care .— keen of sight, hearing and smell. He is wary, but not quite enough, or his numbers would not be dwindling. He is still found in good abundance In British Columbia and Alberta, and It is there that the hunter must go to experi ence the supreme thrill of big horn hunting. A few are still hunted in Wyoming, but only under special permits. They will eat about any kind of vegetation. In tne summer they feed on th e short grass and mosses of the high slopes; P 1 h: in the winter they retire to the valleys and meadows. Here mountain lions, wolves and coy otes prey on them, and in the summer when they are on the high peaks, eagles are said to take their toll of the young lambs. This last is disputed by some naturalists, but wildlife artist and hunter Walter J. Wilwerding writes this: “All I can say is wherever I have found flocks of bighorn ewes and lambs, I have also seen eagles soaring close over head. It is hard to believe that with hungry young in a nest, a golden eagle will pass up a lamb to go hunting' further for marmots and ground squirrels.” The lambs, often twins, are born on the most awful and precipitous peaks, usually from the middle of May to late June. Rarely will you find a ram with the ewes and lambs. Usu ally they band toether and roam by themselves, wanting nothing to do with nursery troubles. / The wild sheep’s life is said to be about 12 years. If a ram succeeds in keeping his head that long, his horns will grow into a double spiral, which is rarely seen these days. The growth rings on the horns are quite distinct, and accurately show his age. wood, S. C.; Rev. and Mrs, Le roy Trexler, Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam Coltrane Cannon, Concord; Mr. and Mrs. W- G.

For a BUY GAS IN MORNING Since gasoline expands as the temperature rises, a gallon has less actual fuel in hot weather. This means you get more gaso line per gallon in winter than in summer, and you even make a real saving if you buy gaso line in" the morning rather than afternoon. CHRISTMAS GIFTS The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to your opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to your father, deference; to your mo ther, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity. COTTON GROWERS APPROVE QUOTAS Washington, Dec, 15.—Partial returns for half the states in to day’s farmer referendum gave a comfortable margin for a gov ernment proposal to put pro duction controls on cotton. With 16 of the 20 cotton-growing states reporting, unofficial re turns gave 455,045 votes for control and 51,056 against. This was a majority of about 90 per cent for the proposal. The favorable vote of at least two-thirds those voting is re quired. States reporting included Vir ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas, Missi ssippi, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Missouri and Arizona. Only one state—Illinois—reported a majority of less than two thirds. Incomplete returns from 152 of 153 of Georgia’s cotton pro ducing counties showed 42,392 for and 5,795 against. South Carolina growers ap- oroved quotas by a 46,439 to 3,297 vote. At stake was a department proposal that marketing quotas be set up on the 1950 crop as a means of preventing production of unmarketable supplies. The proposal was advanced because current supplies are far in ex cess of prospective market needs. Quotas require the affirma tive vote of at least two-thirds of the farmers voting. Official* estimated that more than 1,750,- 000 persons in the nation’s 20 cotton-growing states were eli gible to vote. Reports of the unfavorable weather and light vote in the Southeast were disturbing to department officials. They held the view that the larger the vote, the greater would be the chance of the control program winning. The quota program has run into sharp opposition in some parts of the Southwest, particu larly in the Western half of the belt—from Texas into Califor nia. There have been com plaints that the larger farms have been asked to take sharp cuts in production, Government officials anxious ly awaited outcome of the ref erendum. They recognized that defeat of the quotas could easi ly bring about a selling wave in the cotton and other farm commodities market tomorrow. Rejection of quotas would re quire the department to cut the price support on the 1950 cotton crop from 90 per cent to 50 per cont, or from about 28 cents to about 15 cents a pound. hieres Hoping You Always Have a Merry Christmas We con think of no more fitting expression to soy whot we wont to soy, thon— MERRY CHRISTMAS It's o time worn phrase, it's true, but somehow, to our way of thinking, these two words stand for the true spirit of the occasion.
