lunch was served and the hungry
crowd did justice to it. After supper
the crowd gathered under one of the
giant oaks and sang to the accompairnent
of the Hawaiian guitars and the
ukelele. This was the most enjoyable
part of the evening's entertainment.

Turbeville-Wilson
| Rhems, June 14.?The marriage of
Miss Lucile Turbeville of Henry and I
Mr. Harry Wilson, of Kingstree, was
solemnized in Union Methodist church
near Rhems on Thursday evening, I
June 9th, at 8:30 o'clock. The church!
had been decorated to represent a;
garden and presented a scene of un-1
usual beauty as the twilight hour j
drew near and the hundreds of can- ,
dies were lighted. The immediate j
bridal party entered through a lane1
j which had been prepared in the cen-1
iter of the broad aisle and which was
; made lovely by white posts draped!
j with ivy and surmounted by baskets
j of flowers. At the entrance of the i
I earden was a rustic arbor around i:
and over which southern smilax and I (
ivy were entwined and pink roses |
peeped out. It was beneath this ar- 1
bor that the bride and groom stood'.
while the ceremony was taking place.
On each side of the church, a trellis ]
covered with white and decorated with
vines and roses had been prepared ]
and beneath this trellis work the at- <
tendants stood. The pulpit had been ,
banked in ferns and the alcove behind j
it were covered with ivy and smilax.
This alcove was used to accomodate .
all the musicians; Miss Lola Dickman, J
the violinist; Mrs. L. F. Rhem, the i
solist; Mrs. V. C. Rollins, the pianist; j
and Baker Wilson who presided at the;:
organ. :
As the appointed hour drew uear,
Miss Dickman played "Love's Greet- j
ing" accompanied by Mrs. Rollins.! 3
Mrs. Rhem then rose and sang "All ]
For You", Mis. Rollins again playing
the accompaniment. Then the strains
of the Bridal Chorus from Lohengrin ]
* 1 ?J it. i?: J-l u.
sounaea out ana me onuai pax ijr uv- i
gan to take their places. The four ^
ushers, Messrs. William Turbeville, (
D. N. Wilson, Jr., John J. Snow. Jr.,
and D. D. Rhem, Jr., stationed them- '
selves beneath the trellis and were
presently joined by the eight bridemaids
dressed4 in pink, blue, yellow. ]
and green organdie. The bridesmaids
were Misses Mabel Chandler, of Henry;
Mary Rhem. of Rhems; Sara Louise
Brunson, of Florence; Ruby Brown,
and Birdie Wilson, of Kingstree; ,
Martha Doar, of Charlotte; Irene Col- |
bert, of Georgetown; and Ellen Hem- j
ingway, of Hemingway. j]
Then little Misses Virginia Rhem ! ]
and Clara Ervin untied a knot of pink {j
and white ribbon and made room fori]
the immediate party to stand. Next j,
came the dame ox honor, Mrs. H. G. <
Willis, of Florence, dresse.l in pir.k \
silk; then the maid of honor, Miss j
Louise Snow, of Henry, attired in I
shimmering green satin. Directly pro- i
ceding the bride came little Henry Hi'l j
DuRant carrying the ring and Willis- <
cina Chandler carrying a basket of ?
flowers. As the bride and her father 1
came up the aisle, they were met by I j
the groom who had been waiting for (
them beneath the trellis, accompani- j
ed by his best man, Mr. W. C. Fox- j
worth, of Georgetown. ?Rev. G. K. ]
Way performed the ceremony. While t
it was in progress, Miss Dickman 11
played "To A Wild Rose" and Baker | <
Wilson played a very soft accompani-ij
ment on the organ. The groom plac- j j
ed a beautiful chased ring on the (
hand of his bride, and the entire ring (
ceremony was used. As Mr. and Mrs. ?
Wilson left the altar, they were pre- s
ceded by the small ring bearer and j t
the flower girl, and were followed by I j
the maid of honor and best man. Then j
the dame of honor marched out, fol- v
lowed by the little ribbon girls. Next j
came the bridesmaids marching dou- j.
ble and finally, the ushers and the
musicians. ?
A large number of friends of the f
happy couple were present to wit- ^
ness this marriage. The bride wore j
a charming dress of white duchess j
satin, trimmed with bands of opales- x
cent lace and geogrette. Her veil was ?
held in place by a wreath of orange ?
blossoms and caught back by a sil- (
ver clasp. ,
A brilliant reception was tendered
the bride and groom by the bride's ,
parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Turbe- (
ville, of Henry. The house had been ,

floor had been thrown open. A hand- ]
! some assortment of presents were displayed
in the parlor, which was decorated

bride's cake was cut and the mints
served in the dining room, which was (
beautiful in its pink and white trim- (
mings. Punch was served in the back (
reception hall, where an imitation well i
had been draped in moss. From this ]
well, Miss Ruth Carroway, Miss An- j
nie Wilson, and L. F. Rhem served (
the punch to the guests. The room (
had been decorated to resemble a ,
woodland scene and pine needles cov- j
ered the floor. j

Killed in Auto Accident.
A gloom was spread over the town.
of Andrews when it was learned thati
Mrs. John Morris had been killed in |
an automobile accident last wee^c atWhite's
bride one mile from George-1
town.
Mr. and Mrs. Morris were on their
way home from Georgetown. The
road where the accident occured was
recently built by the state highway
commission. There is a considerable
fill on each side of the bridge and'
the bridge has not been raised on
a level with the fill, so that there is
a considerable dip down to the
bridge. The accident was caused by
the front wheels of the car becoming
locked in the sand near the bridge
and the car turning completely upside
down in the water and mud remaining
in this position for several minutes
until some colored men came along
and lifted the car.
It was found that Mrs. Morris had
been seriouly bruised and was bleed
" ^ 1
ing at tne mouui a.nu uusc. nu. muiris
had only slight bruises. Mrs. Morris
was rushed to Georgetown and
put on a train which reached here at
five o'clock. She lived only a few
minutes after being taken to her
home.
Mrs. Morris who was Miss Long before
her marriage, is survived by he
husband and one little child. She
ivas 22 years old. The funeral and interment
took place at Elom Metholist
church.
TOBACCO BLUE-MOLD DISEASE.
NOT ALARMINGLY PREVALENT
Reports That Disease Has Appeared
in Connecticut, N. C., and.other
Districts Unfounded.
Statements reported to have been
:irculated in the press ahd in the toxL.i.
i.L.
bacco trade to tne enect mat uie nw-|
da-Georgia shade tobacco industry
bas been destroyed by the tobacco
alue-mold disease, which recently appeared
in that region, are pronounced
by the United States Department of
Agriculture, in a statement issued recently,
to be entirely without foundation.
Conditions Adverse to Spread
The disease which, so far as known,
vas first observed on commercial
slanting in this country early this
season in the Gadsden-Decatur district
ind aroused much apprehension among
,he growers there at that time, has
cecn under investigation by specialists
>f the Bureau of Plant Industry since
ate in March of the present year. The
nfection in the seed beds was distinct y
threatening and the same condition
ixisted -in a considerable number of
he shade fields for several weeks.
Since about the middle of April growng
conditions in the region have been
nvorable for the development of the
:rop and adverse to the spread cf the
lisease, so that its attacks have been
substantially confined to the bwer'or
and leaves and are estimated at not
o exceed 5 per cent, of the crop in the
nfected areas. Advices to May 27
ndicate the crop is mrking rapid, luxiriant
grawth, showing little insect
njury, with probability of spread of
due mold later in the season.
The department is informed that
tatements have been made to the ef- [
ct this disease will spread on
obacco in storage and that even
eaves which may mature without visble
infection would be unsuitable for
ise. There is no foundation for such
tatements as the disease does not
spread on harvested and cured tobac:o.
Clean leaves are in all respects
normal and suitable for wrapper use.
Reports that blue-mold disease has
ippeared in Connecticut, North Car>lina,
or other districts are not true,
so far as the department has informa.ion,
nor has tne disease appeared in
:he Madison or Dade City districts of
Florida, nor in southern Alabama.
