4 in St. Mary's Episcopal Church. The Rev. Stccn Whiteside officiated. The bridegroom is the son of Mr.

A circlet of pcarlized blossoms held her float veil of silk illusion, and she carried a cascade bouquet of white daisies and sweet peas with stephanotis. Miss Jeannine Louise Hebert was the single bridesmaid, in a ballerina frock of French blue silk organza, and carried a bouquet of coral daisies. Clark Hilden, brother of the groom, was his best man.

The couple made their wedding trip to the coast. They will be at home in Phoenix, where the bridegroom will attend the American Institute of Foreign Trade. Bride and groom both were graduated this year from University of Oregon. House and church are new additions at this location, built by Mrs. Stephenson in her spare time "my carpenter tools are two hammers, a saw, a rasp and sandpaper," she twinkled.

The church is a replica of Fairmount Presbyterian Church here in Eugene, complete with steeple and bell. "I started to Sunday School there when I was just 10 years old," Mrs. Stephenson recalled. She was Victoria LaDuke then and had just moved here with her parents, the E. S.

LaDukes who settled down in a house on 17th and Villard Sts. She has continued to attend services at Fairmount for more than 60 years until its closure this summer. Happy Memories Mrs. Stephenson's grandchildrenthere are eight of them remember the fascinating papier mache tunnels she made when they played in her living room. And her own four daughters Mrs.

Ray Gates and Mrs. Kenneth King of Eugene, Mrs. Del-hert Johnson of Portland and Mrs. John Mayer of Topcka look back nostalgically on the playhouse she built from the old woodshed which was torn down to make room for an addition on their house at 1754 Orchard Street. "That playhouse had a bedroom, kitchen and living room," Mrs.

Gates recalls. "Complete with a border of Campbell soup kids we'd cut out." Mrs. Stephenson's home is a gathering place for the whole family and no day goes by that isn't brightened by the happy laughter of young people as they "dress up" in Grandma's clothes and parade about the house and yard. When she wants to go to town, Mrs. Stephenson knows she'll have to empty out rocks from her shopping bag.

But she still was a bit unprepared for the surprise she received the other day "I put in my hand and pulled out a big green rubber frog! Let queens and presidents launch ships and lay corner-atones, say Mrs. Claude Stephenson's eleven great-grandchildrenthey'll settle for a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Especially when it marks completion of a project that turns a backyard into a play-land fantasy. Mrs. Stephenson, in her 70's, has created the miniature village during the past two months.

A small creek meanders through her yard at 2065 E. 17th the continuous flow of water regulated by a pump set up in the garden house at the back of the lot. A home, a church and a log cabin are clustered beside the stream and back ground is banked with a "forest" of ferns, rhododendron, azaleas and summer flowers. There's even a small white bridge which offers its own enchantment to eleven pairs of tiny feet as the great-grandchildren gather in the yard to play. They range from five months to ten years in age.

New Village Mrs. Stephenson had a similar "village" at her home on 2021 Orchard Street where she lived before moving some 18 months ago to her new house. When the great-grandchildren found out she was planning to leave, they were in tears and pleaded: "Grandma, you can sell the house, but please, please don't sell the creek!" So a new "Disneyland came Into being "I poured a couple of batches of concrete each day." Mrs. Stephenson recounted. "I'd get up early in the morning to work so the neighbors wouldn't see me and soon I had the creek bed ready."
