Upham-Gallaway
Wedding At
Pleasanton Sunday
Mrs. Mittic Mao Upham and
Coalby Callaway were married
Sunday afternoon, January 19th at
Pleasanton.
The double ring ceremony was
performed by Rev. Barrows, min-
ister of the First Baptist Church
at 2 o'clock.
Wedding attendants were the
bride’s brother-in-law and sister,
Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Powell in
whose home the wedding took
place.
After the ceremony, a reception
was held in the Powell home for
the members of the wedding party.
The couple will continue to make
their home in Rockspritigs, where
Mr. Callaway has a stock mineral
business.
If you drive a car, there is no
better resolution you can make than
to drive safely throughout the year.
If you are unwilling to take that
responsibility, you have no right to
drive. And if you don't take the re-
sponsibility, your chances of being
among the dead in highway acci-
dents are good.

SHEPPERD’S
Gossip Heard Over
A March of Dimes
Cup Of Coffee
Drinking a cup of March of
Dimes coffee, Wednesday, and try-
ing to get all the “around the
square" news in one setting wasn't)
too hard, when we accidentally
overheard some gossipy sounding
words like “costumes, 4-people get-
ting together, family groups, «tc."
And who would be doing the talk-
ing? Doreen Shanklin and Jane
Bean—and all the "around the
square” people know that those tws
persons know how to talk fast and
furious, when the occasion arises.
Putting two and two together
with a half-a-dozen of one and 6
of another—the conversation wound
up about a big-time variety show
for Rocksprings on February 3rd
—and all for the benefit of the
March of Dimes.
The whole thing will be home
talent from the youngest performer
to the oldest guy or gal they can
get up on the stage—and has there
ever been a home talent show in
Rocksprings, that wasn’t full of
laughs?
A peek at the scribbling of Dor-
een’s and Jane's notes and we get
the idea of solos, duets, quartets
(and maybe triplets), family group
performances, costume numbers.
Well-we’re not going to tell all of
Jane's and Doreen’s secrets. Mark
your calendar for Monday night-
night—-February 3rd—what time?
That is still a secret.
