HUTCHINS—CONNER
On Tuesday morning May 21
at the Methodist church one of
the most beautiful weddings
ever solemnized in Augusta,
took place when Miss Ara Pat
Conner was united in the holy
bonds of matrimony to Captain
Robert M. Hutchins.
The wedding was unique in
that Captain Hutchins was the
first soldier to have been mar
ried in this church, and also
impressive from the fact that
with one exception all attend
ants of the bride and groom
were relatives of each .
The interior ox the churcn
was a bower of lovliness.
The altar, choir and chan
cel rail were festooned with
ascension lilies cunningly wov
en with lacy greenery whih
banks of misty green vines
with clusters of snowy lilies
formed a perfect background
and in every niche and cornel
were great bunches and vases
of lilies and delicate green
work.
The bridal arch was a mas
terpiece in artistry of decoratioi
which with the sacred back
ground and drapery of flags
of the memorial window form
ed a beautiful portal symbolic
in its sacredness of the holj
marriage rite.
The ushers were Edwin, Har
old and Cornelius Conner.
Mrs. Shoup’s rendition o
“At Dawning” was in keeping
with the tenderness of the oc
casion while Mrs. W. B. Con
ner’s interpretation of “Be
cause” lent a new beauty t<
the song.
As the sweet strains of Men
delsshon played by-Mrs. Harr;
Mathis, floated through the fra
grant lily scented air, the hu&h
that attends a breath holding
moment descends until the ap
pearance of the bridal party
when the usual turning of
heads began.
Harold and Cornelius Con
ner, as ushers, led the way fol
! lowed by the cherubic Rice
, Berkshire, Jr., bearing the ring
i and two fairy-like flower girls,
Dorothy McCurdy and Eliza
benth Airheart, as dainty and
dear as the rose buds in their
baskets.
Then Miss Laura Conner,
lovely in a costume of white
satin with over blouse of Pekin
blue Georgette, black pcture
hat and carrying Russel roses
entered with Boliver Conner;
next came Miss Christine Con
ner charming in a gown of blue
■ Georgette and carrying Russel
; roses.
' men came maia oi nonor,
i Miss Ruth Conner, beautiful in
I. blue chiffon with picture hat
and Russel roses; then as the
i strains of Lohengrin were
• played, the bride in an exqui
site costume of Pekin blue foil
■ le with picture hat and acces
i sories carrying a shower bo
■ quet of Bride’s roses and sweet
peas, was never more lovely
- and fair, a fitting type of the
; most beautiful and noble wo
r manhood our land has to offer.
The bride entered on the arm
- of her mother handsome in a
i costume of green silk and chif
l fon who gave her away as they
r met at the altar by Captain
- Hutchins attended by Judge
* A. L. Hutchins as best man.
As the impressive ceremony
> was performed by Rev. Hanes
worth, the sunlight mellowec
- as it shone through the stainec
; windows, a benediction as fron
- above seemed to rest upon th<
v
heads about the altar. The
mother with her seven fine sons
and daughters, the candlestick
of refined gold with her seven
branches, each branch to ful
fill its destiny in giving forth
rays of love, light and service.
As the last Amen was said
a sunbeam strayed through the
open casement, bright, flitting
bringing a promise of happi
ness and blessing to the lovely
bride and the groom stalwart
gallant in his soldier’s uniform
of khaki.
Captain and Mrs. Hutchins
left for a few days sta£ in Hot
Springs, after which they will
go to Camp Beauregard whith
er Captain Hutchins urgent du
ties call him.
This couple leaves a host of
friends who find it hard to give
them up. Mrs. Hutchins’ ac
tivities in club, social, Red
Cross and church work will be
greatly missed—Augusta Free
Press, May 31.
How She Banished.. Backache
Mrs. Effie E. Kleppe, Aver
ill. Minn., writes: “I was at a
sanatarium three weeks at one
time, two weeks at another
time, for rheumatism and
kidney trouble and got no re
lief. On my return began
using Foley Kidney Pils;
found immediate relief; half
bottle completed the cure.
Always use when I feel pain in
my back.”
44 MEN REGISTER
i
On June 5, forty four men
wha, have become 21 years of
age since the last registration
day, registered in McCrory.
Orders from General Crowder
on Wednesday requires 4,000
men from Arkansas to report
at Camp Pike and it is thought
that these newly registered
men will be in the service in
the near future. Military au
thorities estimate that 1,000,
000 men registered in the U. S.
Wedneday and that 750,000
will be fit for active duty. One
man who registered in McCro
ry Wednesday had just be
come 21 years of age on that
day.
Registration days hereafter
for men becoming 21 will
probably be fixed every three
months.
Miss Ruby Hargis, who has
been attending Galloway Col
lege at Searcy for the past
term, has returned home for
vacation much to the delight of
her many friends.
NEW BARBER SHOP
The fixtures which J. A. Cul
lum ordered a few weeks agj
for his new barber shop arriv
ed last week. The equipment
consists of four white chairs
plate glass and marble work
stand, white porcelain lava
tory, bath tub and elctric sign
which will be installed in the
Hargis brick building as soon
as it is vacated and repaired
The cost of the new shop will
-be about $3,000 and will be
modern in every respect. Elec
tric lights and fans will be in
stalled and when completed it
will be one of thabest and most
up-to-date shops in eactrn Ark
ansas.
Says It Acted Like A Charm
Coughs or colds which per
sist at this season usually are
of* an obstinate nature. All
the more reason for using a
reliable remedy. ' Mrs. Mar
garet Smale,Bishop, Calif.,
writes: “Foleys Honey and
Tar Compound is a grand rem
edy. Suffered from a cold
last week, used the medicine
and it acted like acharm.”
BETTER FARMING HINTS
-P
The crops which still can be
planted at this season of the
year are the old standbys,
cow peas, peanuts, sorghum,
and sweet potatoes. Aside
from these can be mentioned
the soy bean and late corn. The
velvet bean can still be plant
ed for forage or soil improve
ment. The yield of forage
from these late planted crops
is good even though lighter
than can usually be expected
from the earlier plantings. A
combination of sorghum and
cowpeas, seeded with a grain
drill, will probably produce as
large yields of forage as any
thing. Corn planted in rows
five or six feet apart with cow
peas, soy beans or peanuts
drilled through the middle is
a good practice where grain is
desired and the forage can be
pastured. Planting cowpeas
or soy beans in the row with
the corn makes an excellent
combination for the silo espec
ially on good soils.
Every farmer in Arkansas
should have a patch of sor
ghum. Sorghum molasses can
be used on the table and will
supply the children with good
wholesome candy as well as
help us conserve the supply of
sugar. Sorghum raised for
commercial purposes is quite
profitable and the crop can be
produced on ordinary lands.
