WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BE?

Some of the farseeing business men
Of this country are already beginning
10 considear and take action with re-
spect to conditions after the great war
in Europe is concluded. 1t is every
where admitted that reimbursement
will be necessary and that the bust
ness men of the United States must
put their house in order to avoid a
depression or possible panic which
Will come from the sudden cessation
of the huge war orders which are now
employing thousands of men in hun
dreds of factories.
1t is clearly established that unless
steps are taken to prevent it, before
the conclusion of the struggle, that
thare will be an economic war which
in its earnestness and vigor may rival
the great contest which is now devas,
tating Europe. In the first place,
European nations, being short of
money and DESTROYS of pursuing econ
omy to the greatest possible extreme,
will buy nothing in the United States
except what they absolutely are oblig-
ed to have. And, on the other hand.
needing money as they will to re-
habilitate their own country and its
industries, they will seek to enter the
United States and every other for
eign nation by every means in their
power. In other words, they will put
their prices to the very lowest pos
sible point in an endeavor to sell
goods to the United States, to South
America and to Asia. Moreover, for
a few years at least the warning ma
tons will be so embittered toward
each other that they will buy as little
as possible from their former adver-
saries. The above from the Colorado
Springs Telegraph is all too true, but
the administration is running full
head onto the rocks.

Thomas-siggins Nuptials.


Many friends are Interested in the
marriage of Mr.. Evan Thomas of
Perins and Miss Ella Siggins of this
city which was solemniZed at the
Baptist parsonage last evening about
1870, Rev. Walter Jaeger officiating.
Following the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs,
Thomas left at once for Perins, where
the groom had a very comfortable
home awaiting his bride. Mr.. Thorn
as was formerly from Wilksbarre,
Pennsylvania. For two years past he
has been located at Perins where he
holds the responsible position of
bookkeeper for the Calumet Fuel COM
pany. While Durango has never been
his home, he makes frequent trips
here and has quite a large circle of
acquaintance who thoroly like him,
and who recognize his splendid quail
tiles. Miss Siggins located here
about two years ago. She is an ex-
cellent young woman, possessed of
those traits of character which are
found only in the good home makers.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas start their we'd
ded life under very favorable aus
pices, and all who know them trust
their bright prospects may material
lze.

Talk about prosperity. 1t is the
kind built up on the slaughter OF

war profits are enormous. The manu-

brown paper shoes for the real thing
is a wonderful way of bringing in
the coin.

paper shoes. These are the kind of
people who are reaping big harvest

riage of Miss Marion Harwood, sister
of Roy Hall of Chama and win Hall

evergreens and profusion of floral
beauties.
Promptly at $3.50 the bride entered

her innnarriage. The groom and best
man, Ray Morris, met them under the
archway.
The bride was striking picture,
clad in lovely gown of blue silk,
draped in crepe messaline, and trim
med with fur, rose buds and diamond
ornaments. 1t was simply cut and
most becoming to the youthful wear
err. She carried shower bouquet of
roses and lilies of the valley.
The grouping before the altar,
where the words that united these
lives and hearts were spoken by Rev.
j. II. Yates, rector of the Episcopal
church, was beautiful.
Following the impressive rites, rela
tives and friends gathered around the
happy couple and showered them with
congratulations and best wishes.
After the ceremony the company re-
paired TO the dining room where the
wedding feast was served. Seated
at the festal board with the bridal
party were Mr.. and Mrs. Roy Hall and

Rev. j. H. Yates.
Later Mr.. and Mrs. Moody went
to their cozy house, 451 Thirteenth
street, where they will be at home to
their many friends.
Mr.. Moody is member of the firm
of McCloskey and Moody. During
his nine years residence in the vicin-
ity he has made innumerable friends
and won for himself a substantial
place in the professional life of the
southwest.
