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

gentlemen refused to go farther on

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.

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.

Three Carloads of
Extra Fine Cattle

day from Tacuma where he took
three carloads of beef rattle. His
stuff was acknowledged to be the
finest lot sold in that market in a
12-month. He received fS.05 a
hundred for it.
Mr Smith's three loads, com
posed of 2 and 3-year-olds, averaged
1230 right off the ears. He had
over a car of 2-year-olds so the
prime condition of the shipment
may be imagined. "The Tacoma
market was on the bum," Mr
Smith says, "when I arrived. Had
I gone to Portland during the rattle
show I would have realized t"(K)
more."

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.
