The most brilliant church

August 4, 1920, when two of

Charles Wakefield Cadman.
She wore a costume of rose

Killarney roses. Mrs. Leland

Her costume was of turquoise

HONOR TO HOME GIRL
Miss Della Jeffries Elected
President of Student Body
of Ward-Belmont.
The town of McCrory is
justly proud to claim as one
of its daughters, M.iss Della
Jeffries, upon whom has been
conferred the honor of being
elected president of the
student body. We are doub
ly proud in this case because
an old established rule was
waived in order to elect her.
It has been the custom to
choose the president from the
student council but Miss Della
had never been on the student
council, and was greatly sur
prised at her election. The
••hoice was based on her being
the most all round satisfactory
student. Her duties will be to
counsel girls, to meet dis
tinguished guests, and with the
co-operation of the council to
mete out punishment to
offenders.
Ward-Belmont which is lo
cated at Nashville, Tenn., has
en enrollment of 550 young
ladies from all parts of the U.
S. and some European coun
tries.
fact her acquaintanceship ex
lends far bevond the bound
aries of her native countv. She
'.‘omes from one of the first
families of the state and is the
charming idol of a host of ad
miring friends. She is a
graduate of Gallowav College
Searcy, and was declared the
most popular and atractive
student enrolled there. To
an unusually bright and
intellectual mind she added the
grace and charm of a beautiful
personality, and in all the
social circles she is most poo
ular. Her friends rejoice that
she is not to leave the confines
of Woodruff, and it is impera
tive that she * will at once
assume a prominent place
among the manv popular
young matrons of this county.
The groom is a young man of
sterling Qualities* a descend
ant of one of the oldest and
most highly respected families
of Arkansas and enjoys the
highest esteem of the populace.
The young couple start out in
life under the most auspicious
circumstances and through th«
long happy voyage they will
jtver have with them the earn
est wishes of innumerable
friends.
Mr. and Mrs. B. H. McCain
and Mr. Hugh McCain arrived
+oday, Friday, from Cold
water, Miss., and are guests at
+he home of the former’s
brother, Dr. W. T. McCain.
