At a simple home wedding attended only by immediate relatives and a few very intimate friends, MR. JOSEPH A. KESHLEAR, of Slater, Colorado, and MISS MARGARET ARNOLD HURST, of Leon, were united in marriage last evening at the home of the bride's grandmother, MRS. S.W. HURST, in this city, the ceremony being performed by Rev. T.F. Campbell, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church.

Both the bride and groom are too well known to everyone in this vicinity to need any words of praise. The bride is a sister of MRS. R.A. MCGINNIS of this city, and all her life with the exception of the time while she attended college at Ann Arbor, Michigan, and a couple of years spent in Chicago, where she was connected with a large advertising agency, returning to Leon a year ago to take charge as advertising manager of the J.W. HURST & Co. Store in this city, in which position she has been very successful. She graduated from the Leon Schools and is one of the most loved young ladies of Leon, enjoying the friendship of all who know her. Her life speaks for her better than any words of praise which can be uttered.

The groom was also born in Decatur County, being the son of MRS. LUCY BARR YOUNG of near Pleasanton. He is also a graduate of the Leon High School, since which time he has been located on a ranch near Slater, Colorado, just over the line in Wyoming, in partnership with his brother, BARR KESHLEAR, and they have a fine herd of purebred Herefords on their big ranch. He is a young man of sterling worth, who will succeed in his business enterprises.

MR. and MRS. KESHLEAR will visit here until August lst, when they will drive to their western home, and will be followed by the well wishes of a great host of friends.
