the club that steps be taken for
the erection of a modern drink
ing fountain to be erected on the
square to take the place of the
unsightly drinking tank at which
people water their stock. This
will also be a matter of discus
sion and if need be steps for the

JOHN HUTSON WEEDS.
Prominent Canyon City Man Joined in WedIcck
at Amarillo VIII Make Their Home Here.

For some time there have been
rumors of wedding in high cir
cles and concerning Canyon City
people and there has been much
speculation as to just who the
fortunate person might be. Last
Monday all of these speculations
were allowed when John Hutson
of this city was married at the
S amt Matthew's Episcopal
church in Amarillo at high noon
to Kathryn, the daughter of the
late United States Senator +. NJ.
Hewins of Kansas, the Rev NJ.
r. Worsham conducting the
ceremony.
The newly married couple ar
rived in this city Wednesday
and will make their home with
us. However they expect to
leave within a short time for
for quite a wedding tour to the
leading points of interest in the
United States, the wedding trip
being deferred on account of
some very pressing business
matters in which Mr.. Hutson is
concerned in closing up just at
this time.
The bride was a member of
one of the leading families of the
State of Kansas but for some
time has made her home in ANA
rillo where she was member of
the very best society, having
made many friends by her
friendly and kindly manner.
AS for the groom we cannot
better describe him than is de
scribed in the society columns
of the Daily Panhandle of Amar-
lilo as follows:
John Hutson, English by
birth but American by prefer
ence, is one of the few remain
ing picturesque pioneer plains
men whose sturdy progressive
ness have done so much to make /
of this plains country a prosper
Gus thriving community. His .
friends are limited only by his
acquaintances both at home and
abroad. Those who are most
intimate with him apply the term
of Uncle John" as special
mark of affection. The announce
ment of his marriage today
comes as a surprise TO many of
his friends but is most welcome
news to all and is universally
to be the Growing
event in a useful and active
life
The people of this city will .
welcome this couple here as a
addition to the social .
circles of this city.
