A. Oates. It is again that we have to grieve the passing of a cherished friend. We offer deepest sympathy to everyone that was fortunate enough to know him. We had a wedding on North fork a short time ago. After a whirlwind courtship, Marion Bal lew married Miss Katherine Mc Dowell. This column wishes the young couple every happiness and success. Our \\ . M. U. met at the home of Mrs. Mae Burnette of the Toll road last Tuesday, and had an unusually delightful meeting Those partaking in this pleasant assemblage were: Mrs. Claude Mc Afee, Mrs. Oden Walker, Mrs. Earl Jolly, Mrs. W. T. Shook, Mrs. Dav id Shook, Mrs. A. W. Cavin, Mrs. Glenn Brigman, Mrs. Eugene Byrd and Mrs. Clyde Gray. After a most successful meeting, Mrs. Burnette served the ladies tasty refreshments. 1 had the rare good luck to get in on these, as I was working next door on Nell Mc Afee’s house. Mae brought me out a generous helping of ice cream and cake. Little Mary Morris, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Morris, is in an Asheville hospital seriously ill. This column wishes her a speedy recovery. We miss this bright girl very much in the valley. Our granddaughter, C'”.dy Ed wards, says that there is a “bug house” near her home.

Once I was eating din ner at her house, and 1 reached over and whacked off a hefty chunk of butter, Alice’s big, brown eyes grew round with astonish ment, Oh, Uncle,'’ she said, “don’t take ALL of the butter!” Shirley Williams, our ambitious nine-year-old vocalist, went to the concert as our guest. She enjoyed every minute of it. I guess if Alice knew the truth of the matter, she was plucked out of her place in the curve of the piano, and another brown-eyed little girl took her place, with some other handsome young man from the land of make believe at the keyboard. Such kid nappery is the privilege of child hood. Betty Jean, and Fred Jr. Shook spent last week with their grand mother in Canton. .Minnie and I spent last Friday night with the Joe Bruners of East Marion. All is quiet on the east ern front.
