    "The old sewing machine is gone being sold this day toward a new one. How many recollections came surging over me when my old machine went. It was like the parting of an old friend ... memories of by gone days were with me ... days when I had all my loved family with me ... of times and different circumstances.

    I thought of the hours of stitching with it. Many times the little kerosene lamp was giving light upon the work while I was still pushing the treadle. It has sewed graduating fluffs and wedding ruffs and gladsome things for Christmas. So many happy hours were passed over it ... bright hopes and anticipations for my children and thoughts about my loving husband.

    Garments were made for the rich, and for the poor for charities sake. A little shroud was made for a neighbors child who is playing now in Heaven. Sun bonnets and gay garden hats have sprung from its needle, masquerade suits, dancing frocks have appeared in bright colorings.

    Later days now stitches of love for grand children's frocks and fumbelos. Its usefulness is worn and past ... the new has come.

    The dear old machine has gone but the blessed memories are with me yet."

    NO CHRISTMAS MAIL

    Letter From Buena Vista Soldier
    in France Says the Boxes
    Haven't Arrived.

    WEATHER NOT SO BAD

    Boys All in Good Health and
    Eager to Get in Service
    In Trenches

    Special to the Times-Journal.

    North Buena Vista, Ia., Feb. 7 - E. P. Sawyer of this place received the following letter from his son, Alfred with the Rainbow Guards, in France:

    Somewhere in France, Jan 2, 1918.

    Dear Father:

    Just a few lines to let you know we are all well and feeling fine.

    This is pay day and we are sure a happy bunch. Think the war is just about over, but no telling when we will come back. We have a fine set of officers. I like them all fine. We have inspection in the morning, so are all cleaning our guns. Wish I could tell you where we are, but of course can not.

    There is a little snow on the ground here, and this morning it was real cold.

    We get all of our money in French. I can talk a little French. We are all so anxious to get in the trenches. I am coming to see you just as soon as I get back, so you can see your only son as a soldier. Grandpa Hovey wants me to come to California, which I am going to do. I just got through shaving and cleaning up and feel fine. We just got an issue of new wrap putties. We always wore the leggings, but these wraps are much better. You must write soon and often, as it takes so long for a letter to get here. I am going to have a little French girl do my washing tomorrow. We are all working hard every day; we do many different kinds of drilling.

    There are so many things I would like to write, which I cannot; as it is I cannot write a very good letter.

    We don't get mail very often over here. The last letter I got was dated Nov. 24th. We have not received our Christmas boxes yet, but are looking for them any day.

    It is just about mess time and we are all humgry. I wish you could see us running for the mess line. I bet you would laugh. I see that there is lots of cold weather in the eastern states. This is a fine village where we are. The people are all nice.

    Well, I guess I will close for this time. Will try and write a better letter the next time. Good-bye, and write soon.

    Your loving son,

    Private Alfred L. Sawyer,
    Co. K, 168th U. S. Inf., A. E. F.

    Popular Young People to Marry

    Announcement is made of the forthcoming nuptials of Marjorie Ruth Mateer and Milton Miles Beckwith, Saturday afternoon, September 24th, at 4 o'clock, in the auditorium of Fullerton Church. The Rev. Roy H. Brown, D. D., former pastor of Fullerton and beloved by all, will come from Des Moines, Iowa, to read the marriage ceremony.

    Both Marjorie and Milton long have been actively identified in the work of the young people of Fullerton, the former being a teacher in the Bible School and the latter for several years acting as associate superintendent of the school. The young couple are immensely popular with the membership of Fullerton, as a result of their intense interest in the affairs of the church and for their own genuineness. The coming bride is a graduate of Chicago Teachers' College and taught in the grade schools of Hammond, Indiana. Mr. Beckwith was graduated from Northwestern University, where gained considerable fame as a member of one of that university's numerous collegiate championship swimming teams. He is a member of the Phi Mu Delta fraternity.

    Mr. and Mrs. Fred D. Mateer of the Granada Hotel, the future bride's father and mother, extend a cordial invitation to all friends to attend the wedding.
    Although no formal invitations will be issued, the numerous friends of the young couple are expected to tax the capacity of the church auditorium.

    September 24th also is the 25th wedding anniversary of the bride's parents, which will be celebrated at 8 o'clock that evening with the opening of the winter season at the Granada Hotel. All friends are, through these columns, tendered an invitation to be present at the informal reception and musicale in honor of the elder Mateers."

    "One of the most beautiful weddings ever held in our old edifice was that in which Margorie Ruth Mateer became the bride of Milton Miles Beckwith, associate superintendent of the Bible School. Marjorie and Milton were the happy lovebirds at the reception which immediately followed the ceremony at the Granada Hotel. The bride's sister, Miss Dorothy Mateer, was bridesmaid, and the groom's brother, Willard, best man.
