If I could write one little word
Upon the hearts of men,
I would dip into the fount of live
And with a golden pen
Write one little word and only one
And feel lite’s work on earth well
done,
For every heart would speak to me
That one sweet word “Fraternity.”
The angel throng would sing a song
The sweetest ever heard
If they could read in human hearts
This precious little word.
For kindly thoughts and kindly deeds
Are better far than crowns and
creeds
In the angel host would see
The children of “Fraternity.”
A man would need no other creed
To guide him o’er life’s sea
If he embark in the ark
Os true fraternity
For live divine would clasp his hand
And lead him to the promised land
Love for his fellow man would be
His passport to Eternity.

SOCIAL EVENTE TO
BE 1 FEATURE FOR
MM EMM
MACON, Ga., March 15.—A commit
tee of women headed by Mrs. Emory
Winship of Macon and San Francisco,
is preparing for the reception of dis
tinguished women who will be guests
of the Chautauquo of the South and
cf the two woman’s conventions which
are to meet with the Chautauqua dur
ing the first week, beginning March
19th.
The first big social affair of the
Chautauqua will be a reception which
will be given in honor of Mrs. T. R.
Marshall, wife of the Vice-President of
the United States, who is to make the
principal address on March 19, at
Chautauqua Aulitorium. This will be
followed by a dinner at the Hotel
Dempsy at 6 P. M. under the super
vision of the woman’s committee. Var
ious courtesises are beine nianned for
Mrs. Marshall during the short time
she will be in Macon and Macon soci
ety will be out in force to honor the
second lady of the land. Mrs. Marsh
all is known personally to many Macon
women and that fact is expected to add
considerable to the pleasure of her
visit. ,
The second social affair of the
Chautauqua will be a reception which
Mrs. E. J. Willingham will give on
Wednesday afternoon, March 21, at her
home on College street, in honor of •
the officers of the Conference of j
Southern Wotaen, which will con-1
vene the following day for a three day ■
session. Mrs. Nellie Peters Black, cf
Atlanta is president of the Confer
ence of Southern Women, Miss Ern
estine Noa of Chattanooga, is Vice-
President; Mrs. G. M. Mathis, the fam
ous woman form leader of Alabama, is
another Vice-President; and Mrs. E.
J Willingham of Macon, is chairman
of the executive committee.
These representatives speak volumes
for the new womanhood, for the wo
men who are accomplishing far-reach
ing constructive things and who are
creating a new homi and a new land.
It is a rare opportunity for the women
of Macon and Georgia to get in person
al touch with the leaders of the great
forces that are coming together into
a common council at Macon that
means much for the South of the fu
ture.
Woman’s Meeting Planned.
Another gathering for which the wo
man’s committee is arranging is that
of the Southern Home Economics’ As
sociation, which meets March 20 and 21
and will tring together here home
economics agents and teachers from all
parts of the south. A reception is to
be given in their honor at Wesleyan
Female College on Tuesday.
Mrs. Emory Winship, chairman of.
the woman’s committees of the Chau
tauqua, is a delightful hostess, andj
has gathered about her other prom
inent Macon women who are interest
ed in the success of the Chautauqua.
She is the wife of Macon’s first citi-,
zen. Lieut Emory Winship, U. S. N.,
retired, who met and wooed the hand- i
some heiress in San Francisco, where.
his duties in the navy often took him!
and with Mr. Winship she spends part
of each year in Macon, ■where she
reigns as a social queen, and part ia
San Francisco, her former home.
Southern people generally are fa
miliar w r ith the heroic episode in Lieut.
Winship’s life during the Spanish-
American war. His ship had put into
one of the Philippine Island ports and ‘
everybody had gone ashore except him
self. Suddenly a whole swarm of na-I
tives swooped down ono the ship and.
opened fire. Springing to a machine:
i gun, Lieut. Winship stood the attack- j
ers off until reinforcements arrived I
though he was severely wounded in do
ing so. He was mentioned in official >
reports forNiis gallantry and was hon
ored by being retire? on a pension
though he is subject to call in case of j
war.
It is Mr. Winship who has made!
possible the location of the Chautau- j
qua of the South permanently in Ma-!
con, for it is through his generosity >
that the Institution has secured a
i tract of 750 acres of land three miles
north of Macon, where a model com
munity is expected to grow rapidly.
Mrs, Winship has named the mem
bers of the Ladies’ Reception commit
tee to serve during the session.

Miss Sanborn and Dr. L.E.
Godwin Married Last Night
One of the most beautiful home wed-
dings of the season was solemnized
last night when Miss Mary Ruth San
borh, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
W. H. Sanborii, plighted her troth to
Dr. Lynton Earl Godwin. The subur
ban home was beautifully decorated
in Southern smilax and ferns, while
In the west parlor the improvised al
tar of smilax and ferns. Pedestals
holding lighted tapers threw a soft ■
glow over the youthful bride as she
entered on the arm of her father.
After Mrs. James W. Harris, Jr.,
sweetly sang, “Because,” the first mel
odious strains of the Mendelssohn's
wedding march, played by Miss Jen
nings, heralded the coming of the bri
dal party.
The bridesmaid, Miss Madeline Bra- j
dy. was beautiful in a pink taffeta
frock with a tulle covering. Pink rose
buds were carried most gracefully.
The groomsman, Mr. Mody Rogers,
of Albany, was dressed in the conven
tional evening dress.
Following were the ribbon, bearers:
Petite Misses Katherine and Willa
Sanborn, sisters of the bride, daintily
clad in white lingerie, with large tulle
bow sashes.
Little Edith and Katherine Culpep
per, cousins of the bride, dressed it
little white organdie creations, carried |
little baskets of rose petals, which:
were strewn in the path of the bride,;
! and with each petal of the fragrant 1
: flowers came good wishes from the <
I host of ardent admirers.
I The maid of honor, Miss Ellie Me-J
I LondonAwas exquisitely gowned in I
white taffeta with tulle artistically j
! drapped from the shoulders. A large
[bouquet of pink rosebuds war car
-1 ried.
Mr. Samuel Perry, the best man J
was in evening dress.
The bride was never more beautiful |
than in her evening gown of silver,
embroidered lace, with a tunic of i
white crepe meteor, hand embroidered j
in crystal. The bodice of silver la<:e[
and tulle was exquisite. A long court
hung from the shoulders, and gave a
most pleasing effect, while the tulle,
coronet veil with a band of orange
blossoms completed the costume.
The shower bouquet of brides roses
and valley lilies was beautiful, and'
gracefully carried by the 'bride. The I
bride was met at the altar by the
groom and his best man. There th#'
vows were received by Rev. Alexis D. |
Kendrick. During the impressive ring
ceremony, Miss Jennings softly played
' Narcissus.”
i A reception followed immediately.
Miss Lynnie Sanborn and Miss
Frances McMath served punch in the,
spacious reception hall. Later re-;
freshments were served while the brl-,
dal party were served in the beautiful
ly appointed dining room.

Save The Babies
These are authentic quotations from the pamphlet on babies pre
pared by Dr. L. Emmett Holt, of Colombia University, and Dr. Henry L.
K. Shaw, of Union University:
Bottlefed babies are much more liable to get diarrhoe and to have
it more severely than breast-fed babies. Keep their milk clean and
cold; also boiled and pasteurized. Bottles and nipples should be boil
ed daily and kept very clean. In very hot weather the baby needs less
food and more drink. Dilute his milk with cooled boiled water and
give him cooled boiled water freely between feedings.
was charming.
The little favors were beautiful pink
rosebuds, filled with rice, while deli
cately hand-painted place cards of
rose-buds carried out the pretty little
scheme of the "rose wedding.”
'*’The guests seated at the bride’s ta
ble were Mr. and Mrs. Lynton Earl
Godwin, Misses Allie McLendon. Vera
Brady, Madeline Brady, Marion Jen
nings, of Dawson; Ruby Waters, of
Dawson; Ruby McMath, Ethel Reese,
Messrs Samuel Perry, Mody Rogers,
A. R. Royal, John Marshall, Reese
Horton. L. E. Wood and Watts Mar
kette.
A delightful supper was enjoyed.
Misses Katie Hines and Gracle Mc-
Math served.
After a shower of heartiest con
gratulations the bride, attired charm
ingly in a stylish blue coatsuit, with
blouse and hat to match, and the
groom in a dark traveling suit, im
mediately left for Florida.
After their return to Americus they
will be at the home of Mrs. R. B.
Godwin, on Church street.
The many friends of the happy cou
ple will rejoice to know that they are
to remain in Americus, where Dr.
Godwin is connected with Hooks'
Pharmacy.
MARSHALL MUSTACHE EXCITED
VADIED COMMENT AT ATLANTA
ATLANTA, March 15.—Vice-Pres
ident Marshall has had his muustache
cropped so short that even his old
friends are liable not to recognize him
till they take a second look.
So modest and inconspicuous is the!
fringe on the vice president’s upper
lip that a snapshot picture of him
taken yesterday in tlanta and publish
ed in one of the newspapers almost
tailed to show any fringe at all and'
made him look clean shaven until, you
examined the picture closely.
The usual Marshall moustache is
long at the ends and rather dropping
toward the corners of the mouth, but
now the vice president has a typical
close-cropped fringe of the type af
fected by business men who like to
appear clean-cut and fit and reso
lute.
Vice-President Marshall is on a
speaking tour through the South, and
spent several hours in Atlanta yester
day.
