Edgecomb-Hopkins

SOlemnlZed at the nome OF Mr..
and Mrs. G. 7. Hopkins, Satur-
day evening at eight o'clock,
when their only daughter,
Ruby Helen, was united in mar.
riage to Rex Edward Eige-
c 'mh, the youngest son of Mr..
and Mrs. A. Edgecomb of this
cit...
The bride chose pink and
white for her wedding colors
and the home was profusely
decorated, large bouquets Of
pink and white carnations be-
ling used effectively in the liv-
ing room where the ceremony
was performed. At the az
pointed hour, to the strains Of
Mendelsshon's wedding march
played by Mrs. Robert Harvey,
the bride and groom and their
attendants entered and took
their places before q beautiful
bower in the living room, where
Rev. David Miller used the i'm
pressive ring ceremony which
united their lives. Pink tulle
was used as a back ground for
the bower and two small Christ
mas trees with their glittering
decorations, the mistletoe and
the imitation snow banks made
a handsome setting for the
ceremony. Edward Harvey
carrying a pink rose, which
contained the ring, preceded
the bride and groom. The
bride looked handsome in q
white chiffon gown with shad-
ow lace and pearl trimming
and she wore a wreath of or
chids in her hair and q shower
bouquet of white roses complet-
ed her costume. Miss keitha
Littler, as bridesmaid, wore a
beautiful pink messaline gown
with a beaded chiffon tunic and
carried pink roses.
After congratulations the
guests were invited into the
dining room, where pink again
furnished cry beautiful dec
orations. Streamers Of pink
crepe paper formed the ceiling,
and an immense shade, in the
shape Of a pink rose, from
which were suspended little
pink sweet peas, adorned the
light over the table. Pink sa-
tin ribbon bands were stretch
ed across the table, lighted
pink candles and an immense
bouquet of pink La France
roses finished the table decora-
tions. Misses Bess Fensler,
Bess O'Connor and Ruth Nc
Gavren served delicious re-
freshments, in which the color
scheme was carried out per-
fectly.
The happy couple received
many handsome gifts which all
testify to their popularity
Ruby and Rex can be safely
called "Mo. Valleys own" as
they were both born and raised
here and both graduated from
our high school. Later they
both went to school at Ames
where he Joined the Alpha Tau
Omega fraternity and she be-
came a member of the Pi Beta
Phi. 1t is doubtful if q more
popular couple could be found
in our city. They left on Z
late train Saturday evening for
the west where they expect to
visit several different points.
The bride wore q blue tailored
suit, with hat and gloves to
match.
They will be at home after

To the Pres OF Nevada:
There has been great deal of
confusion throughout the, Western
states. by reason OF the uncertainty
created by the parcel post.
Senator Nelwands and / have TAX
en- the matter up with the postoffice
department and canvassed the
whole situation.
We are informed that 1T will be
the policy OF the department from
now on, in advertising for bids, to
ask for fat rate no first and sec
ond class matter, and on 600 pounds
third and fourth class matter In
cludes parcel post. This. means that
the bidder can count on a load of
500 pounds and yet not be in danger
of having more than a load. The sur
plus over the 900 pounds will be zae-
cumulated until there is an addi-
tional load. The bidder may also bid
for this additional mail.
Our investigations at the depart
ment show that many of the bids
have been SO carelessly made and
are SO indefinite that they have been
misunderstood by the department In
many cases also the bonds required
have net been property prepared or
executed. If greater study and care
were given these matters, much of
the delay and annoyance would be
avoided.
Respectfully,
