' - «• FALSE REPORT. .Li^t week Alvin Fergpson re ported to the News that a double wedding had taken place at the Free Methodist parsonage Sun day December 3. That the con tracting parties were Rufus Fer guson amj Miss Ruby Magee and Alvfh Ferguson and Mi9s Rosella Magee and that Rev. Long of Portland performed the cere mony. Since then we have learn ed that the statement was untrue as only Rufus Ferguson and Miss Ruby Magee were married. Just why he should give such a report we are at a loss to know. It places the young lady in a very unenviable position and certainly was a very lame attempt to joke. While we do not feel that we are in any way to blame for this un fortunate occurrence, we are in deed very sorry that it was made.

PERSEY, CHRISTMAS NIGHT A 5 Reel Show The Christmas program will be given Sunday evening, the night before Christmas. Taking the place of the regular evening ser vice beginning at 7:30. Program will consist of Christmas songs and recitations. But the special feature of this service will be that instead of giving a treat to those present each person is asked to being something to tie given to soitieone else. Baskets will be made up for those who are not able to have much for their Christ mas. Should no one nearer be found who would be glad for such a basket a barrel or box will be packed and sent to the city to be iven to those who are in need, or there are hundreds in the city at this time of the year who will be in need of food and clothing. Some of the classes are planning to make up baskets. But individ- uaJs are urged to bring, a potato or an apple or a basket of either, or a piece of clothing that has been outgrown by the owner or a iece of money however small. Iveryone invited.
