The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1903-05-01
Gentle Sprino,

| At twelve a blizzard blows.
The sun returns again at two,
| The birds begin to sing;
At four the blizzard bowls anew
| So runs the gentle spring.
And he will keep where e'er he goes
| If he's a prudent man
His summer and his winter clothes,
| An overcoat and fan.
| His gauze and flannel undersuits,
| His beaver cap and tile,
His macintosh and rubber boots
| Right with him all the while
| Town Topics.
| And the wedding day came. Only
a very few clouds were in the sky
OH Tuesday, and the weather proved
kind indeed, for the sun was shin
ing brightly most all day, there was
| just enough crispness in the air to
make it ideal.
The most brilliant and largest we'd
ding that has been in Kalispel for
a long time occurred on Tuesday
|
in the nuptials, for both of the con-
tracing parties are so we'll known
and are great favorites. Long before
eight o'clock Christ church, which
was artistically decorated with ferns
and beautiful palms, was comfortably
filled.

maid of honor, little March Merigold,
dressed in the daintiest Of white In

pretty head and carrying a white
