AUDUBON COPHIY BOY
Making A Success Of Life la New Sec
tion Of Colorado. Raised In Au
dubon County.
Mr. Edward Shrader, a aon of Mr.
Wiiiiam Shrader of Audubon, was
raised in Viola township. Audubon
County, Iowa. When quite a small
boy he came with his parents to this
County and settled in Viola township
where he grew womanhood. A few
years ago thinking that the 3reat
West offered the be3t opportunities for
young men, he commenced to hunt
for the ideal location that would pro
duce and sustain the three great ele
ments of life-health, wealth and hap
piness.
He fouud the country to his liking
near Craig, in Moflat County, Colora
do where he settled. Three years ago
he married one of Colorado's fair
daughters, Miss Alice Green, a daugh
ter of one of the oldest citizers of near
Craig.
On tin 16th of the present month a
iittle boy baby came to bless their
borne and will be the first to call them
Papa and Mamma The fond parents
are of course proud of their offspring'
and welcomed the little one to their
home.
Mr. and Mrs. Shrader built a neat
little cottage last spring near the
home of Mrs. Sbrader's parents in the
outskirts of Craig when the young
people went into partnership with her
parents in the cattle business. Their
success has been marked, from the be
ginning, and prosperity is smiling up
on them with "the smile that won't
come off."
