Even the much talked of "war brides" have not been seen here, but two of our well known young people recently helped fill the gap. Mr. Whitnell Beatson and Miss Carolyn Smith were married bv Dr Daniels, at the Congregational church at four p. m., Friday, with represen tatives of each family and a church lull of friends round about them. The day was the eighth anniver sary of the wedding, at the same iils soon to engage in Y. M. place of the bride's sister, Mrs. Knet- U-ork "over there."

"Jimn Mrs. Brownlee has received a letter 'Om her son. Eueene. who is connec- ed with the English ambulance corps in Italy. He was pleasantly and "rt'ortahly stationed near Venice, 'htch he had an opportunity of visit' '? rie has decided opinions aoout There's a difference Tjeiween mar rying and being given in. marriage. Last week? the Rev. Dr. Daniels cele brated his 85th birthday by marrying again, probably the hundredth time at least. He' always marries two people of different sexes at the same time. Shakespeare in his olav of "Much Ado About Nnt.hino-" caught on to this notion when at a wedding the minister says to the bridegroom, "You came . hither to marry this Jady?" "No," says the groom, "lo be married to her Friar." You came to marry her." savs the best man. "What's in" a name?" .asks shakes- pears. And Captain Smith's three daughters have given a quite unim portant but rather interesting an swer. One of them refused to, or at least didn't change hers, but married a Smith. Now Smith originally meant one who "smooths" metals- lron, tin, copper, etc., by beating them. Keversmg the smithing or smoothing idea, another, of the daughters changed her name to Knettles, a third last week to Beat- son. Can you bet it ? . While all the summer resorts Boston, New York, etc., were just reveling in a temperature of 100 and 106, the best poor little Tryon could do to make things pleasant was 95 Queer how these attractions and ad vantages are handed around. "Tryon can get up anything at a moment's notice,' said a-visitor, last week. "It has such a variety of tal ent to call upon." The . compliment was called out by the entertainment for the departing recruits, Monday p. m., at the Lanier Library. Fortv or fifty persons were present, includ ing the ten recruits on their way to Camp Wadsworth. A "speed the parting guest" speech, a piano solo two or three songs from amateur but accomplished vocalists, and a male voice to lead in the "Star Spangled Banner" and "God Be With You Till We Meet Aeain." It was all ar ranged for by telephone in about an hour Monday morning. "Starting Something" is Tryon's long suit and t generally wins. The superstition, tradition, saying or whatever it may be, . that if it rains on St. Swithin's day July 15th or the first of the dog days July 25th it will rain every day for 40 lays, got knocked out this year by uccessions of bright, dry, sunny days :his past week. Doubtless that has happened many times before. But people noticeonly the facts that con firm a popular notion, not those which contradict it. As to the St. Swithin's Day business, it was orig- many an n.ngnsn wreatner saying Over there it is raining a good part of the summer anyhow. Forty by the way is a favorite Bible number.
