The service was read by tho ttov. M. S. Spear of tho Christian church, at Dunmore, Pa. The bride was giv en away ly her father and was at tended by her sister, Miss Anita Clark, who was maid of honor, and Miss Sylvia Ashenfelter of Norris town, Pa., as 'bridesmaid. T. Y. Uoyd Clark was tho groom's best man. Tho flower girl was iMlss Elizabeth Iiryant, and Master Myron Boyd carried tho wedding ring to the altar. Tho bridal party entered the church at ono o'clock to the strains of Wagners wedding march from Lohengrin which was played by Miss Aima usoDio ot Calkins. The ushers were Messrs. Wallace Sheard, hponcer Noble, icussoll Clark and Robert Boyd. Tho hrldo was attired in a whlto messallne, veiled with marnuisette and trimmed with Irish point-lace. She wore a large veil caught up with a wreath of syringas, and car ried a shower bouquet of bride roses and lilies of tho valley.

What may bo a joko in a small company loses its character when everybody knows it. A story of this sort Is not a bit funny when put Into cold, hard type. The newspapers mean well. They are busy, rushed people Who conduct them and with all their de sire for accuracy they are sometimes misled. The outcome of all this ibusiness of sending false information to the newspapers is that someone is going to be made to suffer dearly. Some one is going to be made an example of. It is going to bo harsh but it will be just and the example set will he one that will act as a de terrent to those who have been hav ing fun out of seeing the papers print false stories. peu- f.'IVIXG PAUSE XUWS OF MAUItlACJKS TO XJJWSl'AI'EltS. There aro qulto a few young peo ple, and some who aro oldor in years but vory young in sonse, who think It great fun to soml newspapers falso news.

Several of tho .pors of this stato just tho othor day were deceived Into publishing such a wedding announcement.

Frank Williamson, of Media, gave an interesting talk on " News paper Advertising." Ho said: Advertising depends on tho different localities. I havo tried various ways of advertis ing to bring business before the public, but In tho end I always went back to tho newspapers. I tried circulars, personal solici tation, and post card methods of bringing my name before the public, but nono was so successful as the newspaper. Change your advertisement from tlmo to time and make it attractive and people will read it. A great deal depends upon the advertisement Itself. I be lieve that by advertising in newspapers a man receives five times as much for tho value of tho money expended than In any other way. Advertise and you will be successful. LIGHTXIXG'S I'RAXKS.
