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.
As we all celebrate this occasion, so do we
prosper.
A thrifty people are a strong people,
while extravagance breeds weakness.
This store has always advocated saving
and economy, and as we have advocated
it, we have also made it possible for you
to practice it. Our prices and qualities
tell the story.
Benjamin Franklin
We wish that "Poor Richard", himself
could walk into this store tomorrow, or
read this advertisement. He would bee
real, honest to goodness Thrift practiced
by us and the finest host of customers
that any store could possibly have.
Read down the columns below and note
the many concrete examples of Thrift.
There is money to be saved on every item
listed, and every item is a necessity thnt
is what makes for Economy.' Lot's put
it over in celebration of Franklin's greatness.
