HOLLAND-STINEBAUGH
The wedding bells rang once
more in Harding County last Sa
turday evening and the hearts
of another happy couple were ma
de to beat ps one when A. H. Mc
Glothlin' (The marrying Judge
of Harding Co.) pronounced the
'Vords tnat made Clyde Stine
baugh and Edith Holland man
and wife. . í
, Th ; wedding, a very quiet af
fair took place at the home of
the brides parents Mr and Mrs
T: S. Holland a few miles east of
Mosquero at 7 o'clock P.M. only
a few invited friends and relati
ves of the bride and groom were
present at the occasion. Immedia
tely after the ceremony a fine
wedding supper was . served by
the brides mother to those pre
sent. On the following morning
the newly weds left on a honey
moon trip to Colorado Springs,
Denver and other Colorado poi
nts ; they expect to be gone abo
ut a week or two and after whi
ch theywill "be at home -to Jtheir
many friends at MosqGero.V V
Mrs;Stinebaugh the bride;" is .

part of the; county jSñá fe.ihe
eldest -daughter of Sir and -Mrs '
T. S. Holland, she is a graduate
of the Mosquero school, and is
an accomplished young lady of
the County Seat community, and
we feel assured that Clyde has
chosen very wisely in his selec
tion of the one to go thru life's
jpurney with him.
The grown is too well known
in Warding County to need any
introduction, as he is a county
product, having spent 'the grea
ter part of his life in and near
Mosquero and is one of the in
dustriáis vaurf? men of that co
mmunity. He is the son of Mr
and Mrs W. T. Stmebaugh of no
rthwest of that place and is a
youn man that is and has been
making good and we doubt very
much if his bride couldhave ma
de a better selection from the eli
gióles of the county than when :,
she choose Clyde for better or
w""se ,5j'nd be her future guide
thru life.
It is a pleasure to record the
wedding of such prominent you- ,
ng people for we know they ha
ve, the mákíng of , a real home,
the kind we; need so much on the
mesa, and the Spanish American
extends to them felicitations and
wish thém all the pleasures that
makes wedded life one continued
round fo bliss. .
The school board held their re
gular meeting Wednesday eve
ning They purchased some ma
nual training and domestic scei
nce equipment and transacted
considerable other business.
They reported that practically
all the insurance had been recei
ved and the actual work on the
new building will soon be started.
Another called meeting . will be
held in a few days at which the
contractors will be present and a
final decision will be made as to
whether they will rebuild it or
a new contract will be let.
