GIVES PICNIC TO THE SOPHIE LANNEAU UNION INTERESTING WEDDING OF NOTABLE ALUMNA RECENTLY SOLEMNIZED MISS CAMPBELL FINISHES HER TALK ON PAULAS EULOGY OF LOVE It’ you hiid tako)i a I'icle or a walk on tlie Wake Forest Road Saturday aftpriuion be tween the hours of five and six o’clock you would probably have seen the happiest group of girls tliat you have seen lately, making' their waj' to Mordecai Spring. Each had the appearance of being a real sport, walking briskly and carrying her sofa pillow. Upon our arrival at the Spring each girl throw aside her pillow and M't'ut in search of sticks, liuibs and logs for thip bonfire which was built on the hill top above the Spring. Wlien enougii of those had been gathered, Miss Rogers, our adviser, an nounced that each girl was to broil bacon strips and “wiennies” for her own supper. All! But didn’t we feel like saying “‘Well, aiji’t we got fun?*’ With the bacon and “wionnies,” rolls, hot colfeo and pickles were served. Later, everyone joined heart ily in the toasting of‘marshmaubwa:' After the delightful stipper we all sat down around the burning eoals and sang old and familiar songs, such as “My old Kentucky Home” and “Love’s old Sweet Song.” At .seven thirty o’clock we departed for homo everyone singing merrily our dear “Ahua Mater” and tlianking Miss Rogers for all she is doing for our Ihiion and par ticularly for tliis, one nf (hi! ni*est socials (if the .season. A rare treat was ours on Saturday morn ing when Mr. W. T. Bost, wbo throiigli his ]>en bas commanded much attention and ad- mit'atiou tln-oughout the slate gave us a de lightful talk. His subject was “Joy,” which, be said, though it wa.s a.s easy for the poor to gel as for the I'ich, and for the illiterate as for tlie literale, only few people ever attain. Mr. E. L. Middleton, a proiuinent Baptist, serving as Secretary of the State Siniday School Board, and a close friend of Meredith, condiicted our devotional exercises at the chapel service on Wednesday morning. His talk was helpful and impressive. One pass age of scripture which lie read included this: 2 Timolhy, 2:15—“Study to show thyself approved unto God, a wovkmiin that necdeth not to be ashamed, vightly dividing the word of truth”—a ver.se familiar lo all B. Y. P. TJ. workei’S. Greenville, N. C., Oct. 21.—The first W(‘(l- ding ever eelebrateil in tiie Innnanuel I5ap- (ist church of this town occurred on Wednes- l«y evening at !) o’clock, when Miss Ijeila Shields Higgs became the bride of J>r. Jnbn Davi.s Hinnber, of San Francisco. Cal. Wiiite, with touches of green, was the prevailing color, and (he eft'cct was unusually beautiful. The eluireh, with its white woodwork and ivory walls, lent itself well to the deeora- ti(His of massive ferns, .sni'ilax and pine Jap anese symbol of long life and happiness, with myriails of white candles gleaming among the dark foliage. The ceremony was pi'cceded by two beau tiful soprano solos by Miss Jessie Moye, ■‘Call Me Thine, Dear,” from tbe opera L’Elair, and “Until.” by Sanderscni. T!u>re followed a violin solo by Miss (Jharlotte Rueg- ger. Miss Ruegger is an artist well known in Europe and America and her masterful playing of “Homanee” hy Wienim'oski and “Souvenir" by Drdia was a real treat to Ihe congregation. The acuomiianimeins for Ihe soloists and the wedding marches were skilfully jilayed by Miss Eliziil)etli Futrell. of Scotland Neck, X. ('. She used ]\Iendel- sohn’s wedding nuireh as a i>roi'.cssional. and the stirring march from Tannhauser as a recessional, Dr. R. T. Vann, of Raleigh who officiated at the wedding of tiu‘ bride's parents, j^er- formed the ceremony, assisted by Di’. J. B. Turner, pastor of the Imuianue! cbui'ch. Dr. \^uin‘s cei-emony, which is original with him, is an ntuisually beautifid and impre.s- sive one, and its solemnity and dignity were enhanecd by the soft tones of the violin and piano in “'I'o A Wild Rose." The bridal party enteivd in the following order: first, the ushers, .Messrs, Robert Clr‘en anil William While. They were fol lowed by the bridesmaids and groomsmen, who entered alternately down each side. Misses Hel(‘ne and Eli/,abeth Iliggs, both of (ireenville, were follcnved by Dr, Kai’l Bai'e.

Special em phasis was put on the verses: “Beaveth all Ihings. believetb all things, hopcth all things, endurelh all Ihings,” a»ul, “And now abidcth faith, hoj)e, charily, 1he.se three; but the greatest (jf tbese i.s charity.” MRS.
