A Quiet wedding.

There was simple and very quiet
wedding Saturday evening at $50 at
the ohme of Mr.. and Mrs. James d.
Bowman. when their daughter, Ber-
tina Bowman. was joined in wedloclS
to Eston Heiskell, OF Montana Mines.
Rev. l. A. McNemar, of Bellview,
officiated.
1t was the intention to have all Of
teh tow families present, but owing
sickness none of'Mr. Heiskell's fam
lily could be present except brother,
Mr.. Hustead Heiskell. and as a mar
ried sister of the bride lives at Terra
Alta and brother is at Piedomnt
and neither could come, it was a very
quiet wedding.
Both young people are we'll known
here and at Montana, both being ac-
lively engaged in Sunday school

them all the good things of life. They
will reside at Montana. where Mr..
Heiskell is employed by the Consoli-

NEVER PREPARED.

From The Sun and New York Herald
We are people who will not prac.

pare for war, we did not prepare for
peace. We have never prepared for
anything.
In the season when weather condi-
lions are favorable for mining coal,
transporting coal, filling the bins with
coal, we dicn't do any more about It
than Is comfortable and convenient.
In the dead of winter, with the coal
frozen at the mine pit, trains storm
bound, rivers blocked with ice and
streets barricaded with snow so that
fuel cannot be moved anywhere from
mine to fcTnace, we set up cry over
falling heat, light and power-when
it is too late.
When the railroads happen to be
doing well we don't let them get ahead
OF the country's ever growing needs;
we drag them back until they are be-
hind even the present needs. Then we
are sorry. But we drift along on that
slack tide.
In our days of slowing industry and
falling business we do not keep our
plants and organizations iny shape to
take care of the boom days that will
follow: In our fat years re do not
make provision out OF our surplus
products and surplus earnings to tide
over the lean years.

Mrs Rosabelle Gould, wife OF the
Rev. William d. Gould, rector of

been in the garden with Mr.. Gould
and then went into the house and
sat down at the sewing machine;
after having been there a short time
she called to Mr.. Gould, who had al
so come into the house, that she did
not feel we'll and by the time he
could go into the room she had fall
en- to the floor unconscious. After
putting her on the bed he hurried
ly summoned physicians but she was
beyond the help of earthly aid and
died in a short time. The news OF
her sudden death came as a great
shock not only to the members OF
the church but to the public general
ly and upon every side were heard
expressions of sympathy for the be-
reaved father and children.
Mrs. Gould was the daughter of
the late Donald M. and Minna L.
Dunlap. of Petersburg, Va. She is
survived by her husband and three
children, Dunbar Gould, a student
at Washington College, Chestertown,
and Josephine and Rosabelle, of this
city.
The remains were taken to Pet
ersburg for interment, leaving yes
