A . ' general, discussion followed
after, which (he meeting was ad'
Journed.
There could hsvo been no bettei-
compliment to the member, of tho
senior clas. of the La Grande high
school who participated In the pro
ductlon of the play "Mr. Bob" last
week thin the splendid attendance
on the second night ot the perform'
an'ce, which was given Friday even
ing. The . high school auditorium
as filled that night almost as well
as It had been the night before, when
the first production was given.
To a large' number ot those who
attended on either Thursday or Fri
day evening, "Mr. Bob" was perhap.
a good deal of a revelation, giving
to the member, of the caste an op
portunity for the display of talen'
whose presence had been unexpected
And, to say the least for them, the
young people took full advantage of
the opportunity preaonted.
There was quite a pleasant llttlr
story to "Mr. Bob." "Bob" waa tho
nlcknamo Mis. Katherine Rogeni
had for her friend, Marlon Bryant.
Miss Rogers and her cousin, Phlllr
Royston, were living with their aunt;
Miss Rebecca Luke, 'ml Royston had
taken It for granle.1 that "Bob" Was
his fair cousin's suitor. Robert
Brown was the clerk of a law firm
and had In his trust a missing will
: which Miss ltebecca Luke wanted
ivciy much to find. Miss Rogers war
(expecting her friend. Mr. Bob, to ar
rive for a visit; Royston w antic
ipatlng the arrival of his college
!chum,'and Miss Luke had an an
pulntnmnt with n Mr. Ilrown, an
'architect, who.' was to -build her a
room for her cats, which were a
hobby with her. This gave - grea'
possibilities fur a oilx'up all around
'and that Is precisely what happened
When Brown, the. law clerk. arriveC
to hand over the missing will,

aud Miss Patty, Inn' maid, had -nr.

Mr. (lute sergeant) and Mr.. John
S. Jenkins, of Baker, were visitors if
La Grande the latter part of the
week, on a somewhat belated honcv
moon. Mr. Jenkins, who returned
fionl the- service about ten day. ago
and hi. bride, are highly eluted,over
the surprise to which they have
treated their Baker fi lends, and which
the Baker Democrat of Friday morn
ing lust tells about as follows:
Distinctly the brightest and most
notable social event of the season oe
curred -last evening at the home ot
Mrs. Hnttic Olsen, when her daughter,
Klsie ; Marie, one of , Paker a mos'
charming and talented young women,
was announced as tho bride of Sgt.
John E. Jenkins, one of Baker's rising
young business men, who returned
home last Thursday from military
rvice in France with the CM Coas
Artillery corps.
The bride', home was beautifully
decorated in pink and white, and tht
wedding presents were profuse and
elaborate as well as beautiful and use
ful. Only the relatives of the bride and
groom, including Mr.. A. L. Robbins
of Portland, sister of the bride, and r
few intimate friends were present.
An elegant wedding supner was
served when the young married cou
ple supposedly returned from the
parsonage.
During the supper the happy groom
was called upon by the guests to give
a toast to the bride, and being a gift
ed public speaker, Stvgennt Jenkins
responded with alacrity, but ver
briefly when he said t
"My dear people, I raise my glass
and drink a toast to my bride of 20
months. We were married at Port
Townsend, Wa.h., July 27. 1917.
shortly before 1 sailed for Franca, by
the Rev. Walter ' Bishop Bell, and I
now submit our wedding certificate
for your "inspection."
Needless to say, relatives and
friends were for a moment speechless
with surprise, and then pandemonium
reigned supreme while the guests and
equally surprised relatives of ' the
bride and groom showered them with
congratulations and called them
"Voting renegades," "sneaks," and
other mock reproachful epithets pro
vokert by "camouflage'.' that has re
maiiu-d the well-guarded secret of Mr
ano .Mrs, jcnicins inr xnese man;-
months.
Instead of going to the parsonage
of Rev. William Westwood, as wa:
given' out, Mr., and Mrs. Jenkins
diove to the Democrat office to breal
the news for publication anil to dis
illusion I, B. Bowen, Jr., who was i.ll
emilrs yesterday in pleasant anticipn
tion of acting as bcRt man at the wed'
ding ceremony. Also Mr. and Mrs
Jenkins had with them their wedding
certificate, which had been carefully
hidden for months in the attic of the
home of Mrs. Hattie 11. Olscn, entire
ly without her knowledge.
The best
man collapsed
The groom's gift to the bride wa;
a beautiful umoees brooch, hand
painted by C. Faure, n famous French
art'st- ,
. Mr. and Mrs. Jcnkms will leave
immediately for a brief honeymoon
trip to Boise, Idaho, and on their te
turn to Baker they will be at home
after April 16, at 1U17 Valley avenue,
The friends of Mr. and Mrs. Jen
kins are legion, and they all join
in wishing the young couple a happy
i married. (The Boise trip is aho a
joke on the Baker friends of tne han
! py couple. They are spending their
.honeymoon in La Grande.)
