mount of patronage which was be
ing cast our way demanded an in
crease in the News force and we
were fortunate to secure the services
of Mr. Geo. M. McFaddeu, a gen
tleman of excellent character and
business ability. This week we se
cured the services of Mr. H. C.
Shearer who is an artist at whatso
ever livehood he may undertake.

well known t,o need an introduction
to our readers, and now with your
assistance the News will rank a
mong the leading county papers of
Arkansas. We have made the start
with an eight page paper and ad

citizens will appreciate the same at
least enough to subscribe and there
by help support an enterprise that, is
continually boosting them and their
interests.
POWELL-BRAZEALE
One of the quietest weddings our lit
tle city has known for some time
was solemnized Sunday evening
Jan., 31, 1909, at 4 :30, at the pret
ty country home of Mr. W. E.Jelks
three miles north of McCrory, when
Rev J. R. Nelson, Pastor of the
Methodist Church, united in holy
wedlock Miss Amanda M. Brazeale
and Mr. Frank Powell. The bride
is one o f WoodruffCounty’s pret
tiest young women and possesses
many graces of mind and person.
For several years she has served
our people as “central” for the
Patterson Telephone Company. Mrs
Powell is very popular in the social
circles of our city and they are glad
to know that she will remain a
mong them. Mr. Powell, for the
past four years has been a favorite
employee of the Fakes Mercantile
Company. The gentleman is an
ideal young man of excellent
character and habits and deserves
the companionship of a good noble
woman such as has been his fortune
to wiD.
This event marks the most im
portant mile-stone of their life.
Another home is made, a new start
in life is commenced under the
most favorable conditions and cir
cumstances. We wish them long
life and bespeak for them much
happiness. We rejoice that they re
main among us to cast their leaven
ing influence for good in our com
munity. They will make their home
with the groom’smother in this city.

Once upon a time there was a
man who was too economical to
take his home paper. He used to
send his little boy to borrow a copy
from his neighbor. One day the
boy in his haste to return with the
paper fell down in front of a street
car and was hurt severely. His cries
reached his father, who ran to the
boy’s assistance, and, failing to see
a runaway team of horses rushing
down the street, was run over, out
ing a handful of flesh from his a
natomv and ruining a new suit of
clothes. Hearing the racket in the
street, his wife upset a five-gallon
jug of molasses in a basket of kit
tens. In her haste she droped a $7.
00., set of teeth and stepped on
them. The baby, left alone, crawled
over to the sticky kittens and
chased them all into the parlor,
ruining a $25.00 carpet. During the
