BREVARD LYCEUM CGl'RSE.
We take pleasure in announc
ing? this week that arrangements
have been completed with the
Radcliffe Entertainment Bureau
of Washington, D. C., for a Ly
ceum course of six numbers du
ring the fall and winter. This
Bureau is so well and favorably
known in the northeastern and
middle states that the bare an-
\iouncement of a deal with them
is sufficient to guarantee a series
of first class entertainments.
The course will open here
Sept. 28 with the Neil Litchfield
Trio in two hours of refined fun—
mirth, music and mimicry, violin
and ballad horn solos, violin imi
tations, humorous songs and st< -
ries and the rural comedy play
let “Down at Brook Farm.”
Other numbers in the course
are ‘The Scotch Singers ’—Miss
TiUa Crawford, contralto; Miss
Jeanette Cuthill, 1st soprano;
Miss Ella Campbell, 2nd Soprano
and pianist; Miss Agnes Hyde,
1st contralto and reader—who
will entertain a Brevard Audi
ence Oct. 11.

the Old South,” “Lights and

“Gov. Manship has been on the
lecture platform for the past ten
years and has come to be regard
ed as one of the Sbuth’s greatest
humorists and orators.” He will
be here Nov. 14.
“Rip Van Winkle” will be pre.
sen ted to our people Jan 13^by
Herbert A. Sprague and Floy

‘-TheRaweis,” native New^a-
lander.s. presenting in Song, Sto
ry and Picture ctmost unique and
fascinating entertainment, ppi-
traying native life of South Sea
Islands. Their date is Jan. 23.
In addition to these Regular
Lyceum numbers The Woman’s
Betterment Society have ma,de
arrangements to add one num
ber to the course, the date for
which has not been announced
Season tickets entitle the hold
ers to all numbers.
For all six numbers the Bre
vard managers have decided on
the following schedule of prices:
Season Ticket for two $3.50
“ “ “ one. 2.25
“ • “ “ schools 1.25
Admission, each number 50
‘‘ childi^en 25
We hope that this year's lec
ture course may be as well re
ceived and patronized as last
year. It costs the management
$80 more than last year, but
there was a surplus of several
dollars left over, so they hope to
get through without losing mon
ey. Season tickets are now on
sale at tha Southern Stock and
Farming Company’s store.
Mayor Breese says that the
reason he did not permit a Labor
Day parade was that the Sons of
Rest and Whittier’s Club were
in the majority. They couldn’t
be removed from the streets to
make room for a labor parade
without causing trouble. The
qaayor is to be commended for
his foresight.
Monday was Labor Day and—
we labored. If anybody in Bre
vard celebrated the holiday they
must have been away from home
or have ordered their celebration
in express packages.

one who shirks taxes at the ex
pense of his neighbors.—Mayor

WEDDING BELLS.
, CHAPMAN-WARD
Perfect In every detail was ihe
beautiful wedding on Wednesday
evening of Miss Jessie Chapman
and Mr, David Gregg Ward, which
was solemnized in St. Philips Epis
copal church. To the music of
beautiful Bridal Chorus from Lo
hengrin played by Mr. Cyrus D.
Chapman, the bridal party entered
the church—first the two ushers,
Mr. Fleming Ramsaur and Mn
Archibald Caldwell; the grooms
men, Mr. James Higgs, Jr. of Chat
tanooga, Tenn., Mr. John Chapman
of Washington, D. C., Mr. Adric
Robinson and Mr. Marion Gner-
rard of Asheville ; the brides maids.
Miss Nancy Clark an4 Miss Eugenia
Brnnot of Brevard, Miss Caroline
Nesbit of Chicago and the groom’s
sister, Miss Mary Ward of Atlanta j
the maid of honor, Miss Eliza Wal-
1 s of Brevard, and the little flower
girl, Miss Mary Bacon of Louisville,
Kentucky and the ring bearer Ed
ward Walter Carter Jr., who car-
ried the wedding ring on a cushion
of white messalene from the bride’s
wedding gown. The bride entered
on the arm of her mother and they^
were the altar by the Bight
Rev. Bishop Junius Horner of
Ashevillerthe Rev. Chalmers D.
Chapman, the bride-groom and It'ff
best maiij Mr, Ed Ward of Atlanta
The betrothal ceremony wa,s
beautifully and impressively per
formed by Mr. Chapman, then Miss
May back of New York sang in a
sweet, expressive voice, “O, Per
fect Love,” after which the mar
riage ceremony was' concluded by
Bishop Horner.
The wedding party to the strains
of Mendelsohn’s Wedding March,
left the church for the rectory
where a beautiful reception was
given by Mr. and Mrs. Chapman.
The house was a bower of beauty,
especially the bride’s table, with
its festoons of Clematis extending
from the ceiling to the four corners
of the table. ‘
After receiving the l^earty con
gratulations of many friends Mrs.
Ward changed her wedding gown of
white Messalene over taffeta for a
g )ing-away gown of blue-and-white
shepherd’s pliaid, with a becoming
hit of black, and, amid the hearty
^ood wishes and showers of rice,
the young couple drove away.
Many beautiful gifts attested the
popularity of the young couple
among-them, exquisite cut-glass,
and silver, pictures, laces, em
broidery of most beautiful designs
and texture, rare china and furni
ture for their home
After their return they will be
at home to their friends at the rec
tory and it is w’ith very sincere
pleasure that Mrs. Ward’s many
friends learn that she 'will not have
to leave them for another home.
By her sweet, happy disposition
she has made herself beloved by
the people among whom all her
childhood and girlhood has been
spent, and Mr. Ward is to be con
gratulated upon winning so lovely a
bride. In the two-and-a-half years
Mr. Ward has spent among us, he
lias won many friends who wish
him all hap^Diness.

Netherlands. These w^*re known in

colonial times as “Flanders babies.”

WHAT IS SOCIALISM?
The steady growth of socialism,
not only in Europe but in this
country as well, often causes us
to wonder what socialism really
is. The following clipping is
from the editorial columns of a
socialist paper, and its ideas as
to “work” are too good to be lost.
We believe the world would be a
much better world if the doctrine
that work is necessary to happi
ness were more widely believed.
Our opinion of this percept is
very much like the aged sister’s
opinion of “total depravity.”
She said, “It’s a mighty good
doctrine if it’s only lived up to.'’
Here is a socialist opinion of la
bors
Work has amoral as well as an
economic value ; idleness corrodes
the character. When one is doing
nothing, the consciousness of the
fact annoys him, and he endeavors
to find some excuse ; and as there
is no reasonable excuse his vision
becomes distorted by the effort to
find even a plausible explanation of
-his refusal to render service to so
ciety. Carl Hilty, the Swiss author,
says that happiness is only possible
when one is engaged in some regu
lar work which occupies his time,
employs his mind and satisfies his
conscience, and no one can doubt
the truth df the statement. God
never int-ended man to be a drone
and man can not expect to enjoy
life or the respect ©f those whose
respect is worth having if he is not
abl^ to show that his existence adds
something to the world’s activities,
to world’s wealth, and the
worid% welfarei. , , * ^ “ i
