CLIFTON AND VALLEY MILLS
are Lucky communities
(From The Baird Star)
Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Isenhower and
their little daughter, Wanda Jean,
drove from their ranch at Valley Mills
to spend Thursday and Friday with
his mother, Mrs. W. M. Isenhower, at
the family homeat Putnam. C. M. and
his brother, John D., visited The Star
office on Friday.
We enjoyed the visit with the Isen-
hower brothers for they both are fine
men who grew up in this county. C.
M. Isenhower and the Star editor were
closely associated during the past
seven years while we were both em-‘
ployed by the Humble Oil and Refin-
ing Co. at the Ingleside refinery. Last
October he resigned bis position and
bought a stock farm in the fertile
Bosque River Valley. Reports from
there are that his new place is one of
the choicest pieces of property in that
vicinity and he is well on the road to
understanding of the problems of
working men in all the departments
made him a real friend to many. His
unselfish desire to assist in improving
conditions for the working man and
to 'help make Humble the best of oil
companies marked him as a big man
with a big heart Humble lost a young
man with executive ability when Isen-
hower moved to the farm.
If* the gool people of Valley Mills
and Clifton are really awake to their
gain in having the Isenhower family,
they will put C. M. Isenhower's name
at the head of every list of citizens
who work for the civic and domestic
improvements of that region. They
will harness that dynamic personality
and let it pull for the 'betterment of
those who call that section their home.
We say these things because we know
that C. M. Isenhower is a good man of
sterling character and unquestioned
ability. We like to see qualities such
as his in force.

GULDBRAND W. GIGSTAD WED
A lovely wedding took place in the
Trinity Lutheran Church Wednesday
afternoon, Jan. 17, when Guldbrand
W. GigStad and Miss Arlene Jane
Thomas were united in marriage by
the "groom’s father, the Reverend
Walter T. Gigstad.
The ceremony began with a vocal
solo, sung by Mrs/T. R. Maakestad of
Cranfills Gap. She sang “Love Di-
vine, O Love'So Tender.” Following
the solo Miss Alice Marie Nelson
played the Wedding March by Lohen-
grin for the processional, whereupon
Mrs. Maakestad sang the beautiful
hymn. “0 Perfect Love” before the
beginning of the ceremony at the
altar.
The attendants of the bridal couple
were Karen Gigstad and Eldon Sol-
berg, and Constance Gigstad and Al-
ton Luedtke.
The bride wore a white wool dress
with a pink hat and matching gloves,
and a pink corsage. The bridesmaids
wore rose silk and blue silk respec-
tively, with white corsages. The
groom’s mother was dressed in a dark
navy blue suit, with a red corsage.
The bride’s mother lives in Los
Angeles, California, and was unable
to attend the wedding. The groom’s
youngest sister, Audni, was dressed
in aqua wool and wore a pink corsage.
The ladies of the congregation gave
a reception at the Parish Hall for the
young couple immediately following]
the wedding. A beautiful wedding
cake was baked and presented to the
bride and groom by Mrs. Dagney

MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER
Mrs. Rubin E. Happier, formerly
Miss Almarie Hoel, recently married
in California, was 'the honoree at a
miscellaneous shower in the home of
Mrs. Chas. Hoel Saturday, January 20,.
at 3:00 o’clock. The hostesses were
Mmes. Gus. Hoel, Chas. Aars, J. M.
Huse, C. W. Lambert, O. C. Johnson,
M. L. Solberg, Chas. Hoel, and C.
Pemell Aars.
The guests were greeted by Mrs.
Chias. Hoel and Jewel Marie Lambert
In this hour when the shadow of1 The guest book was Prided over by
death is falling across so many homes,
the man (or woman) who has nothing
more serious to worry about than the
cigaret shortage has nothing to worry
about
* * *
And another thing that puzzles me
is, if there is a paper shortage in this
country (and I’m sqre there is) then
why do the big metropolitan papers
devote so much space to the Chaplin
case and other Hollywood filth?
And Why couldn’t they cut down
on the size of those enormous pic-
tures on the Sunday society, page?

County Clerk Dush Shaw of Gregg
County has begun his 24th term,
ranking him as one of the oldest pub-
lic officials, in point of service, in
the United State. The Longview Lens
comments that the popular county
clerk has “worn out” two courthouses
and is serving in the third.

One of the most interesting law-
suits in the history of Eastland was
not tried in the courthouse at East-
land but in justice court in Cisco back
in the ’20’s. A one-eyed mule and a
1912 model Brush automobile collided
on the main street. (Can you remem-
ber the Brush. It had «a door at the
back and it cranked on the side, like
a phonograph, and you steered it with
a stick instead of a wheel).
The case drew such a big crowd
that the ’squire moved from his little
courtroom over to the city hall audi-
torium. The trial took all day and
then everybody went home for supper
and came back that night for the ar-
gument.
W. J. Barnes (rjow a prominent
Houston attorney) represented the de-
fendant and he brought out that the
value of -the mule was only $50, yet
the owner was claiming $150 damages
to the animal! In fact, Barnes made
such a convincing speech that the jury
decided that the auto didn’t hit the
mule at all but that the mule jumped
in front of the auto—and so the owner
of the Brush was awarded damages!
Mrs. C. Pemell Aars, where all were
asked to register.
Cookies and tea or coffee were
served by Mmes. Gus Hoel, O. C. John-
son and C. W. Lambert. The table was
lovely with a lace cloth and burning
tapers. Elsewhere there were lovely
ferns.
The following program was given:-
Toast to the "Bride—Jewel Marie
Lambert.
Toast to the Girls Left Behind—
Velma Claire Eggen.
Reading “Quit Your Foolin’ ”—Mrs.
C. Pemell Aars.
Games.
Reading: “A Married Love-letter”
—Mrs. Martin Hoel Jr.
Following the program, little Rallin
Aars brought in a ship laaen with
gifts, and presented it to the bride.
When the huge Shipload of gifts
had been admired by all Mrs. Kappler
graciously thanked her friends for
their many kind and thoughtful re-
membrances on this happy occasion.
