The marriage of Miss Dorothy Louise Mohr and Hersel Raymond Saunders, of this city, was solemnized at the home of the bridegroom's par ents, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Saunders, of Tenth and John Adams streets, Satur day evening, November 25. Rev. A. J. Ware, of this city, officiated in the presence of relatives and several in timate friends. The ceremony was performed at 8:30 o'clock. As the bridal party en tered the living room Miss Myrtle Tracy rendered Lohengrin's Wedding March. The bride was attractive in a dark blue suit, with a corsage bouquet of white carnations. Miss Grace Reynolds,- becomingly gowned in dark blue, with corsage bouquet of pink carnations, was the bride's maid. Wilbur Hayes was best man. Following the ceremony the bridal party left for Portland, where a wed ding dinner was served at the Mult nomah hotel. Mr. and Mrs. Saunders remained in Portland for several-days, making their headquarters at the Multnomah. Upon their return to Oregon City, the young couple have taken up their residence for the present time with Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Saunders, parents of the bridegroom The bride is a well known young woman of Oregon City, where she has resided for a number of years, and re cently resigned her position aa sten ographer in the office of Attorney Dean Butler. She is the daughter of Gus Mohr, of California, where she re sided before coming to Oregon City. The bridegroom, who is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Saunders, is among the popular young employes of the Hawley pulp & Paper Company. He attended the Oregon City schools be- they are selling around nine cents each as high as $1.08 a dozen. They are being sold by the carload. Anoth er thing that amused me may shed some light upon the cost of tobacco. In Connecticut where a large part of the wrapper tobacco is grown I was as tonished . by the numerous hop fields. I asked how it happened that the state had taken to hop raising and I was informed that they were tobacco fields, but that they were wired on poles like hop fields, and' acres and acres cover ed with cloth to prevent the leaves from being damaged - by the . hail storms. "I noticed a predisposition in the east to buy in small quantities," he -continued. "They buy by the peck where we buy by the bushel. In Wash ington coal is selling by the paper bag fulL It draws 25 centsfor 18 pounds or about $30 per ton. This is caused somewhat by the shortage but it is the same thing with potatoes, and other commodities. "Europe? No, there was hot much talk of the financial condition in Eur ope. The financeers belive that we are as prosperous as we can be at present, barring the condition of the farmer. The european situation does not enter into the general discussion. "The railroad situation The rail roads are Btill feeling the results of the strike. Few eastern- trains are again on time. The inactivity of the shops is still being felt in poor rolling stock. Coming west, at Bocatello we were late and delayed for an hour and a half waiting for a freight engine. Our own engine was said unable to take us on and we went with freight engine as far .as Harrison before a regular express locomotive was avail able. '"". "The car shortage is still somewhat r-orious. The chairman of the public utilities commission in Idaho told me that the state was still 3000 cars be hind for the moving of its fruit crop and that thousands of dollars worth of crops had been ruined through fail ure to move. "Througout the entire middle -west, however, I found that there is a gen eral misunderstanding of their condi tion. It is believed that during the past few years they failed to keep up with the general line Of progress, but the manager of the federal reserve declares that their neglect of cur rent Improvements has been due to -the fact that they have liquidated much of the public debt. The pres ent progress has necessarily been sacrificed to improve their financial condition. This is especially true of Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska." From The Pulpit (Continued from page four.) to the stranger within our gates of the great mass of these citizens, as such, ignoring the proclamation, its intent and spirit, while they wrest the day set apart from its sacred moorings that they may embark on selfish, carnal pursuits! "Praise the Lord All Ye People." Come into His courts with thanks giving, and into His gates with praise." . Although four times married, a wo man in Nebraska has changed her name only twice. Her first two hus-, bands bore the same surname, as did also her third and fourth.
