Williamston, N. C. The Cake walk Rink. Last Thursday night the skaters strove to get the prize for lieing the best cake walker, and it was awarded to Miss Ktiiuia Graham and Mr. Clayton Moore, the prize being the privilege of skating for the balance of the season free of charge. Wheeler Martin gave Clayton a close run for the place, but Clayton used I letter tactics; he skated in a small radius, half of which was right in front of the judges and necessarily made the better impression. Miss Gra ham was iu a class to herself; none of the ladies could couuiele with her. The contest lasted alMtut twenty minutes. Miss Smith Wins Scholarship. We are glad to learn thai M s In ne Smith, in a competitive nx animation, won the S3OO Murelii son scholarship which is offered by St. Mary's School, Mrs. Mtirchi son, of Wilmington, being the donor. Miss Mary Lassiter, of Hertford, daughter of Rev B. S. Lassiter, has held it for the past four years. This is quite an honor for Miss Smith. To a Smart Property Owner. Painting is practical work. Skill wins. It's the same with paint making. You know 4 gallons L. & M. mixed with three gallons Linseed Oil makes enough paint for a mod erate sized house, the best paint money can buy, because the L. & M. Zinc hardens the L. & M White Lead and makes the L. & M- Paint wear like iron. Buy L- & M., and don't pay' $1.50 a gallon for Linseed Oil, as you do in ready-for-use paint, but buy oil fresh from the barrell at 60 cents, and mix with the L- & M. L. & M. costs only $1.20 per gallon. Sold by S. R. Biggs. 1 • PIiRSO M/ LS Mr. J. B. Coffit Id *as in town Monday. ludge Waldo, of 1 iamilton, was here Monday; Mr. E. J.

One of the most notable and pleasint events which has taken place in Martin county for a long time occured in Hamilton, last Thursday. May 3rd. On that date Miss Sallie Salisbury, of one of the 1 first families of the comitv, was led to the marriage altar by Mr. R. , W. Hodgiti, postal inspector, for 1 North Dakota. On the afternoon of Wednesday the guests and friends gathered from Greensboro, Norfolk, New Bern, Tarboro, Rocky Mount, Wilhaniston, Scot land Neck, Weldon, Bethel, COll - and New Jersey. Weduody night, amid a splen did display of flowers, carrying out the color scehme of white and red, they were tendered a most de lightful reception at the Cloinau House. On Thursday at 3 o'clock p. 111. the bridal jKirty drove to the beau tiful iittle Baptist church, nestling among flowers and choice shufcerry in which the birds were twittering love notes to their mates. Inside Miss Clara Salsbury, with voice rare and sweet, was mingling her notes with those of the -birds as she sang "Sweetest Story Ever Told." To the strain of the wed ding march artistically rendered by the deft touch of Mrs, P. L. Sals bury the ushers, 11. L. Salsburv and W. S. Rhodes, of Hamilton, entered, following thetll like little fairies of dreamland dressed in snow white silk gowns, came the little flower girls bearing their precious burden to lay upon the altar of love. Then came Mrs. Mundy, of New Jersey, dame of honor, and Miss Lizzie Mayo, of Bethel, maid of honor, both dress ed in faultless white silks. Fol lowing them came the dainty lit tle ring bearer, carrying a waiter of silver with a shining band of gold iu its centre, cytnliol of the endless marriage vow. Then came Prof. Sam Hodgiu, of Greensboro, leariug upon his arm the groom elect, ami Sherrod Salisbury upon whose arm the bride, his sister, was leaning. She was dressed iu white erepe de-chine with diamonds made over taffeta and carried brides roses. At the altar she was given, away by her brother, and Rev. W. A. Ayers, pastor of the First Bap tist church of New Bern, in his usual easy and graceful manner pronounced the mystic words which bound them together as husband and wife. As they left for their far away home iu North Dakata, they were followed by many tender good wishes for a long life of happiness. The Boat Club. The members of the Boat Blttb, Mess. Jim Roberson, J.
