CAPON INDEPENDENCE, Mo. -From the young pastor to the gal station man next door to the beau ty operator down the street. Inde pendence is getting ready for Mar garet Truman's wedding with quiet flutter. The tiny, reo-nncx cnurcn where Harry and Bess Truman were married 37 years ago, where th family worshipped and Mar garet sang in the choir, has been spruced up for the ceremony Ap ril 21. But there won't be time to do a complete cosmetic Job on the filling station which adjoins the ' church. Painting May Walt "I was hoping we could get those-curbs painted," station man ager Ralph Sheridan said rueful ly, "but I doubt if w can get it done in time." While the family is counting on a small, simple wedding, the com ing event is spreading widening ripples of excitement in this quiet Midwestern community ot ,ooo. Among friends and neighbors, the big question is "What's he like?" The room, Clifton Daniel Jr., had never visited Independ ence, but when he doei relatively few townspeople will have a chance to satisfy their curiosity firsthand. Two Days Before In New York, where he works as assistant foreign news editor of The Times, the quiet, evenly dis posed Daniel said he expects to reach Independence about two days before the wedding. He and Margaret will travel West separ ately, and immediately after their marriage will leave on a two-week honevmooon. Trinity Episcopal Church on North Liberty Street can accom modate on y 150 people per' haps 200 in a pinch" and the re ception to follow at me Dig, ram bling white frame Truman home on Delaware Street will be limited to family and close friends 1.f it MIlldlM Th R Pnlrif Tl.itlon who be-1 came rector only for months ago.l more than 15 minutes. At Mar garet's request, there will be no singing. J. T. Hammontree, the organist who has known the Tru mans for years, will provide the music. Those are the simple plans, but the volume of Questions coming in from distant points would indicate if you hoven'f ytr seen fhm, people mini an ciauuraw wunr ganza is in the works. "It'a been rather overwhelm ing." said the boyish looking rec tor. "I keep getting inquiries from all over the country and I have to keep telling them that I ; don't ""make the plans-I just perform the ceremony." Te Block Off Street The pollc department has its ......,.,.,.,.., plans ready for independence s best known family. The wedding party will have a police escort to and from the Truman hmi8ef just a few blocks from the church. Part of the street will be blocked off.

"It's quit thrill for our little town," exulted an elderly clerk In the department store where Mrs. Truman ha shopped for many years. All Talk at Weddlag "We've been talking about noth ing but the wedding lately," said Mrs. Pearl Wood, beautician who used to do Margaret's hair and still does Mrs. Truman's. "We're all pulling for Margaret. She's a real person, sociable, friendly. Relatives and friends of the Tru mans were gratified but hardly surprised that Margaret chose to come home to get married. This was the place where Mar garet spent her happy, relatively sheltered childhood; where she ran with the "henhouse hicks," her girlhood group; where she made lasting friends, got her ear ly schooling, had Iter first dates, discovered music and started training her voice in the church choir. Bride's Aaat Mrs. Frank Wallace, the bride's aunt who lives across the corner from the Trumans, said: "I think in ber heart she will never grow away from Independence." The Daniels plan to live in New York. The bride will have twoattend- ants Mrs. John E. Horton of Los Angeles and Mrs. William Cole man Branton of Kansas City, the matron of honor. "We're pretty excited about it," said Mrs. Branton, a childhood friend. "I'm really anxious to meet Margaret s fiance. When Margaret was here last Christmas she never said a thing about her engagement.' Mr. Wallace confessed she was surprised by the announcement. "She hadn t known Mr. Daniel long only since November. And at Christmas, she just talked about a new beau she was al ways talking about new beaus but she didn't so much as mention his name." it't high fim you stopped in to took of fht ntw.
