DREAM COMES TRUE IN MARRYING 'HILLBILLY' ENGLISH LADY SAYS. By LARRY MULL Approvi mately 500 people par-j ticiprted in the serenading of Mr.j and Mr-. Charles A. Snyder fol-j lowing t/.e.r wedding Sunday. March 14. They were married at Clayton. Ga. After their return to the Snyder home in Dillsboro. a reception was held. 200 guests were greeted at the receiving line composed of relatives and close friends of the bride and groom. Immediately following the re ception members of the Dillsboro Fire Department joined in "an old fashioned serenade." an old \merican custom?and treated the bride and groom with a ride in the fire truck. The parade as sembled at Dillsboro with about 500 people participating in what is believed to be one cf the largest celebrations of its kind in that section, and continued through Sylva before returning to its origin. Mrs. Snyder, the former Mrs. E. Moore Whittington of Shirley, Southampton, England, was much impressed with the occasion. "I've never seen anything like it," she said. "You know." she continued, "I have dreamed of coming to the U.S.A. after having pictured in my mind these beautiful hilLs, the people?especially the hillbilly, referring to the mountaineer. Lit tle did I dream of marrying one." However, her fi.s: lew months here found Mrs. Snyder speaking nostalogically of her relatives and homeland. She arrived here in August, 1947, to visit a daughter, Mrs. E;leen Dillard, English war bride during 1945. Mrs. Snyder is the daughter of Captain and Mrs. Frederick M^ore of South I ampton, England. Sne was pre j paring to depart for her home ' land when she met and "fell in ' love" with one of the hillbillies she had dreamed of some day see ing. Today she says she is the ( happiest person in the whole I world, and wouldn't trade the \^l\ THANK YOU BRAND FREESTONE SLICED PEACHES !

K. Jones "Extension farm management an alyst at State College. "Development of the livestock enterprise is often handicapped and delayed because of lack o) t adequate buildings to house and care for increased number," Mr Jones said. "Much hay is wasted and improperly cared for because l of insufficient storage space. A I tremendous amount of labor could , be saved if barns w?re arranged to handle hay efficiently." The Extension worker pointed out that although building cost* are high, farmers who have theii own timber can get the needed buildings erected at a reasonable cost, especially if much .of the labcr can be prov.ded by the farm family. It would be wiser at this time, he added, to invest in better biuldings rather than additional land, since present land values are highly inflated. It should be re membered that the added acreage must eventually be paid for thru the sale of farm products, and nc assurance can be given as to how long the present high prices for farm products will continue, the analyst declared. All buildings, Mr. Jones said should be planned in relation tc the whole farm program. The ultimate objective should be tc make the additional investment in buildings justify itself on the basis of increased farm income. Farmers planning new barns should consider, among other things, the need for more ade quate buildings, cost of construc tion, labor savings which could be expected, and the increase in in come which would result, the Ex tension worker pointed out. happiness she has found here for all her years in England. Mrs. Snyder chose for her wed ding a wine suit with gray acces sories and a corsage of white carnations. Her daughter, Mrs. J. C. Dillard. and Miss Ruth Sny der, niece of the bridegroom, were the maids of honor. Mr. Dillard, son-in-law of the bride, served as best man, A grandson of the bride, Paul Dillard, also accompanied the attendants to Clayton, Ga. Mrs. Snyder says she has found the people of the Southern Appa lachian Mountains to be the kind est, most hospitable and sociable she has ever known. Since coming to this section she had organized through the Sylva and Dillsboro schools a chain letter organization which has approximately 50 mem bers. Mrs. Snyder receeived her education in Southampton, En gland. Mr. Snyder, a prominent mer chant at Dillsboro for the past 14 years, received his education in Jackson and Haywcod county :-chools. He is also a graduate of Draughton's Business College, Knoxville, Tenn. STATE COLLEGE HINTS TO FARM HOMEMAKER By RUTH CURRENT State Home Demonstration Agent The finger of an old glove placed i over the end of a curtain rod will ' enable one to slip the curtain onto! the rod with no danger of catch-; ing or tearing the material on the metal rod. i Put the smallest-size white, snaps on the two bottom corners of, curtains and also fasten two more! about a third of the way up the curtain. Then when the windows i are open at night, or for airing the room, the curtains can be "snapped together" and will net get wet or soiled. ? Remember it is easier and less( tiring to paint ch^ir legs if the chairs arc turned upside-down. When painting baseboards, hold a cardboard close against the wall| -bove the baseboard. This will prevent the possibility of getting paint on the wall or wallpaper above. Such cardboards are also very useful when washing base-, boards, sir.ce they prevent the water from marking the wallpaper. To p.lint a stairway which must^ oe used before tr.e pai/.t has op-i portunity to dry, paint every other step. Then when t>.e first set of >teps is dry, the alternate steps may be painted the same way. Trellises or window screens can be easily reached on all sides when painting, if hung securely on the ^thesline with heavy wire. BOWER'S SUPER Saving Sale Is Drawing Big Crowds Buy Early -?
