LaGrange, November 5.
Any erroneous reflection upon the
character, standing or reputation of
any Arm, corporation or individual
published in these columns will be
cheerfully corrected upon its being
brought to the attention of the editor.
We will also appreciate the giving
of any news item, the names of the
visitors at your home, or the going
of members of your family away for
a visit. Such assistance will help to
increase the value of your local paper,
and should be given with the thought
that it is a debt you owe to the prog-
ress of your city.
The Journal is an independent
democratic newspaper, printing the
news impartially, supporting what it
believes to be right, and opposing
what it believes to be wrong, without
regard to partisan politics.

HACKEBEII.-SCHAEFKK
A quiet wedding occurred last
Thursday evening, at 7:15 o’clock,
when Mis.* Elsie Schaefer and Wil-
burn Hackebeil were united in the
holy bonds of matrimony by Rev. R.
Heise, at the home of the bride’s
father.
The bride is the second oldest
daughter of Emil Schaefer of near
LaGrange, and the groom is the
youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Hackebeil of near Rutersville. Both
are very popular in this section; the
unexpected event was a complete sur-
prise to their many friends.
The bride was beautifully attired
in a white all-silk flat crepe dress,
and wore a lovely veil and bridal
wreath of dainty orange blossoms
and wax budis.
The witnesses were Miss Lenora
Schaefer, sister of the bride, and Al-
win Rauch. Only very close relatives
and friends were present.
After the ceremony a sumptuous
wedding supper was served. Mr. and
Mrs. Hackebeil will make their home
on the farm of the bridegroom’s par-
ents where a new home is being
erected for them.
Their many friends extend their
heartiest congratulations and best
wishes for a long, happy and pros-
perous married life. *****

Mr. and Mrs. Gerhard Gerdes, re-
siding between LaGrange and Ru-
tersville, were agreeably surprised
last Friday afternoon and evening by
their many friends, who came with
plenty of eats and word.* of good
cheer and ordered for a celebration
of the 25th anniversary of their wed-
ding day.
These estimable people have spent
the entire twenty-five years of their
married life where they now reside,
and were blessed with one daughter,
Miss Lenide.
The day and evening were spent in
the old-fashioned way, with song and
conversation, and happy hearts dic-
tated to the passing hours. * ****
VITAL STATISTICS
Paul Sladczyk, properly signed and
executed, which insures the rental of
the building for the next ten years,
and the location of the postoffice to
be where it now stands. As stated,
the building has been rented by the
United States government for a
period of ten years.
What changes will be made in the
building will probably occur later, if
such changes are contemplated. Mrs.
Sladczyk submitted the two proposi-
tions to the government, to rent the
building as it stands, or to place en-
tire new rows of postoft'ice boxes
therein. The government will pay
only for the lower floor of the build-
ing.
Thus another dream is also shat-
tered; some few here had not aban-
doned the idea that there would be a
federal building erected in La-
Grange; it would have been attrac-
tive to gaze upon and would have
been located in a convenient place,
but our postal receipts do not war-
rant such building, according to our
informant. Columbus, our neighbor-
ing county site, will receive a federal
building.
During Wednesday, Thurs-
day, Friday and Saturday, Nov.
4, 5, 6 and 7, you can purchase
two identical sale articles, pay-
ing the standard price for one
and only lc for the other, at

Store.

“About a year ago, my health was
not good,” writes Mrs. W. F. Sive-
ley, 8800 First Court, N., Birming-
ham, Ala. “I felt weak, tired. I had
pains in my back.
I knew by these
symptoms I needed
something to build
mo up. My mother
advised me to try
Cardul, which I did.
I found it was what
I needed, for it built
mo up. The pain In
my back stopped,
and I felt better and
stronger than I had
In some time. I took
about 7 bottles of
Cardui in all.” rs
