The residence of John Frazier of
Elco, was the scene of pretty home
wedding Friday morning at 7 a. M,
when Miss Olive, the eldest daughter
Of the house became the bride Of
Temple Cornelius. 1t was a pink and
white wedding and the pleasant rooms
9f the Frazier home were decorated
with a wealth of blossoms in these
colors. To the strains of the wedding
march played by Miss Violet Cor
nelins, the happy couple attended by
Miss Vera Frazier as bridesmaid and
Tom Narcotic of Aztec as groom's
man, took their place amid wedding
bells and blossoms. The impressive
ring ceremony was performed by Rev.
Z. s. Chambers of Aztec. A three
course wedding breakfast was then
served, after which the happy couple
departed by auto to catch the East
crn train for a short honeymoon trip.
These young people are well known
IN La Plata county. They were mem
bers of the class of 1911 of the Du-
range High school. Miss Frazier
graduated later from the State Teach
ers' college while Mr.. Cornelius at
tended the State University. Miss
Frazier taught four terms in La
Plata county, transferring last year
to Aztec, N. NJ. Mr.. Cornelius is now

EXCHANGE NOTES.

Word from the division of publ
cations at Washington says that 200
copies of Farmers Bulletin No. 841
will be sent to the Exchange as soon
as possible. This bulletin deals with
the evaporating Of fruits and vege-
tables, and persons wishing copies
should inform the Exchange at once.
"a ~
As soon as the market survey of
the San Juan basin is completed, and
and the needs of the region clearly
shown, the Colorado State Agricul-
tural college and the State War coun,
ell have promised to lend their aid for
the solution of the immediate market
ing problems. The quicker the sur
vey is made the more sure are our
farmers to have ready sale this fall
for their products. La Plata county
farmers organizations are being ask
ed to help with the collection of the
data required by the Bureau Of Mar
hNta, III olutl tiltit tit BItdLeSI speed
may be made in the work. Wallace
V. Smith, in charge of the work, win
visit every section of the county and
our people will one and all give him
support. There are great things in
the immediate future for the San
Juan if we all cooperate at this time.
The future is rosy with promise,
and there is no question of the re-
sult-a good result-provided every
one does what he can in this market
survey work.
Senator Thomas and Representa-
tive Taylor write the Exchange that
on account of the isolation of this
section, it is very difficult to get the
mining experiment station for Silver
ton. Sugar beet capitalists say we
are so shut off from markets that the
building of a factory in the basin
would not be a business proposition.
Tourists who would like to see Mesa
Verde, hesitate at the hard trip. In
almost every progressive movement,
the lack Of adequate railway facili-
ties is stone wall against which it
has seemed almost impossible to con-
tend.

TOO MANY FEUDS AND
LAWSUITS.

It is this second great COM
mandment, love for ones neigh
bors. love for all mankind, that
I wish now especially to empha-
size. and to urge our preachers
and religious leaders to sympa-
thize. We have too many church
members processing a religion Ct
love who do not speak to some
neighbor; who instead of forgiv-
ing some ancient injury lie awake
nights planning to get even, who
instead of putting charitable
construction upon the words and
deeds of neighbors, live in a per-
petual state of suspicion and dis
trust; or who belong to some
"set" or faction in the commun-
fly which cherishes nothing but
hate or bitterness for some other
faction.
Especially, it seems to me, are
such conditions likely to prevail
in country communities. 1t is not
that country people are worse at

GOLDEN WEDDING.

To-day, we received an an
nouncement of a wedding which
took place in Decota. Illinois. on
December 18th, 1867. The con
tracing parties were Mr.. John 3.
Winters. son Of Adam Winters
formerly from Pennsylvania
and Nancy Westrape formerly of
Indiana to Miss Jennie R. Hall,
daughter of Abner Hall and Cath
crime Jemmer, old residents of
Pennsylvania.
And this is their Golden wedding.
No time now for merry making or
festivities. while the whole civ
ilized world is being moved into
ceaseless activity by the strength
Of its heart-throbs. But this was
a sacred occasion. one that calls
for thanksgiving from the chill
dren Of this unusually eontented
and happy family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Winters are well
and look many years younger
than their age and they frankly
give the credit Of their comfort
able and cheerful appearance to
their ever-loving and care taking
children. who in response to their
fathers wish to continue the ac-
Invites of his busy life, urge him
to take his we'll earned rest, that
they only ask that their good
mother and father stay = with
them. and they will carry the
burdens their devoted parents
bore for so many years. Mr.. Win
tiers was born in Port Gibson,
Miss, and enlisted in the First
Mississippi Artillery in which he
served until the close of the Ciyil
War; But he has lived so long
among us that he and his practical
family seem a part of this inter
esting community. Mr.. Harry
Winters, Mr.. John Winters and
Mr.. Davis Winters are among the
active members Of our business
life. and Mrs. Kate Winters Gall
and Mrs. Florence Sandusky, all
but the latter (who could not
leave her young family made their
congratulationary visit to their
parents on the Golden Wedding
of Mrs. Winters. The words Of
Holy writ are especially true.
Her children shall arise and call
her blessed and her husband also
and he praises her.
