county, Kansas, where they had
known each other from early child
hood.
Miss Keltner is young woman
of whom it can we'll be said, "to
know her is to love her." She is an
earnest, attractive girl, endowed
with many graces of mind and heart
and is fitted to grace the home of
the young man she has chosen.
Mr.. Ford is young man of noble
and sterling worth.
The wedding was witnessed by
about forty of their friends and was
an attractive affair. The house was
beautifully decorated. The bride
and groom were attended by Miss
Sylvia Keltner, sister of the bride,
and Mr.. Fred Ford, brother of the
groom. The bride was more than
beautiful in her wedding gown of
pure white and lace. After the GER
emory a bountiful repast was served.
The exquisit array of wedding
gifts attests the high esteem of the
young people.
While the friends extend their
heartiest congratulations to Mr. and
Mrs. Ford and trust that the days
and years to come will bring added
happiness and blessings, yet we feel
that Meade county isro be congrat-
ulated for Mr.. and Mrs. Ford will
live among us and be part of US on
MI Ford's farmne Uueeda, where
he is building a residence which they
will occupy about March first.

in his disc, unable to move and had
his team moved the disc foot either

He remained in this precarious pre-

Munich, seeing Farnham frantically
waving his hat, came over from the
road where he was passing and re-
leased the foot. He had to cut Farm
hams shoe of and even then had
some difficulty in getting the member
loose.
Several times the horses became
FESTIVE and moved a trifie and each
time the disc ground into the foot
which was badly lascerated and swol-
len before It could be removed. Farm
ham will suffer no serious results
but will be on crutches for several
