I An Unusual Wedding at Methodist Church A wedding of more than usual interest was solemnised in the par lors of the Methodist churoh last Friday evening when a large circle of relatives and friends assembled to witness the wedding of Lillian Amelia Minden to John Ephriam Williams. The bridal party entered the church to the strains of a wedding march composed by some highbrow that knew his business The "strains" were furnished by the Prineville orchestra, which means that there was nothing lacking in phrasing, coloring or tonal quality that the old master himself would have omitted, lhe bridal pair stepped high to the accompanying music. Joe Lister was best man and Mrs. Hamilton and Mrs. Colum bus Johnson were the bridesmaids. C I. Winnek was the official ring bearer and when it comes to bear ing rings he is right on the job. With a deep salaam he placed be fore the bashful groom a very large napkin ring on a sofa pillow. The ceremony was taken up at this point by the Rev. Mr. Prater and the Rev. Mr. McAllister. These gentlemen did not carry it forward many points before they discovered rhstt tho oxivim rtaH fnrrnttm h'n i; , sv......i.. xi ri:. was cresent and he issued a snecial .mif u .i.- i developed that the groom was with' out funds, whereupon the reverend gentlemen refused to go farther on "jaw bone." It was either "dig lln" nr nn wpdrlincr ThA ViriHp produced a check to cover the I ministerial fees and the ceremony started again. Then the preachers got to thinking about the hard cold winter ahead and demanded a di vision of the check. This caused another temporary halt but at last ! this was peacefully arranged and the ceremony was completed. Then followed a two-course ban quet which was enjoyed by all Many clever and interesting toasts were made We venture the asser-l tion that a larger or better wedding ' cake never before graced a mar-' riage feast in Prineville. The narlnrs were tasteful v rlpinr-f ated in pink and white with carna-j tions of the same colors. j Many beautiful and useful pres-' ents were received. Thi3 delightful affair was ar ranged by the Misses Blanche and Ethel Willi wis in honor of their parents 25th wedding anniversary. It was a complete surprise to the mother. A Chance to Work Governor West's crusade for the benefit of the unemployed is getting results. The following is a copy of a letter from Mrs. S. P. Glenn to our chief executive: . " Oak Grove, Oregon, Dec. 15, 1913. Gov. West, Salem, Oregon. Dear Sir: I took out a permit to enlarge a ditch in Crook county out of Crooked river, and there is between $220 and $230 worth of work still for me to do on it. Do you think you could get some one to do it for me. It would have to be done by the first of May and I could pay cash as the work was done. Yours very respectfully, Mrs. S. P. Glenn. Call for Warrants Notice is hereby given that all regis tered County Warrants up to and in cluding No. 1620, will be paid on pre- kiE A BRONCHIAL COUGH is wearing and dangerous because the inflamed, mucus-filled tubes interfere with breathing and the fresh air passes through that unhealthy tissue. Probably no other remedy affords such prompt and permanent relief as Scott's Emulsion; it checks the cough, heals the linings of the throat and bronchial tubes and strengthens the lungs to avert tuberculosis. This point cannot be empha sized too strongly that Scott's Emulsion has been suppressing bronchitis for forty years and will help you. Be careful to avoid substitutes and insist on SCOTT'S.

A Reply to Ashwood Good Roads Man Editor Journal In reply to the good roads man from Ashwood, will say that the people of McKay creek believe they have the only road supervisor that ever did take an interest in our roads and of course we stood in with him and the coun ty and helped makj the roads. We have five or six miles of road that would be a credit to any road super visor in any community. The people on McKay creek do nated something like eight or nine hundred dollars worth of work and the county put up a like sum in cash and that is the reason we have good roads. Now, if the people of Ashwood will come over and Uke a look at the roads and have a talk with our supervisor i feel sure there will be something doing. The people on the McKay side will do their part and the county will, no doubt. assist in giving the Ashwood people a good highway over the mountains. Our road supervisor has already taken the matter up with the coun ty commissioners so a little help from Ashwood people will do the rest. Are you people over tnere willing to give it. Rancher.
