POPULAR WENDELL TEACHERS MARRIED Herald readers will be interested in the following from an Idaho paper: Mr. Henry C. Egelston and Miss Eaibara Hixon, two of the popular teachers in the Wendell school, were married last evening at the Methodist church. Rev. H. Fryer, using the ring ceremony, tied the knot that made the young couple man and wife. Mr. Egelston who is teacher in the , seventh grade and coach of the high school boys' basket ball team, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Egelston of Monmouth, Oregon while his bride is teaching the overflow from the first and second grades and is coach of the high school girl's basketball team and is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs, A. Hixon of Portland. Both are gradu ates of the Oregon Normal school at Monmouh and there began the ro mance that ended in the happy cere mony last evening. Mr. and Mrs. Egelston were the honor guests of two auto riJes last night after the wedding. Mrs. Egel ston was kMnappcd by the girls of her basketball squad and Mr. Egels ton was treated similarly by the boys of his basketball team. The par ty was divided into separate and dis tinct affairs and neither was returned home until the wee small hours of this morning. Some of Mr. Egelston's friends also swiped his wedding suit and he had to be married in his every day clothes. While Mr. and Mrs. Egelston were strangers among us at the beginning of this school year, they have each made a host of friends who join the Irrigationist in extending best wishes and congratulations. This Thrift Week is the American way of honoring the greatest Apostle of Thrift. The week set aside in his memo ry begins with his birthday, January 17 a most fitting and proper observance.
