music by the martial band, followed by
prayer by Rev Mrs. Olivia j {. Wood

The president of the village, John
Mutchler, not being present, Mr.. Row
land, IN his usual happy manner, bade
the visitors most hearty welcome He
spoke of the fact that it was only few
years when Paw Paw was only coun-
try village without auy modern improve
meuts, but, as he said, Paw Paw does
things" We now have electric lights,
water works, sewer system and other
marks of progress and advancement He
also called attention to the fact that

construction Of the court house and that

Rowland spoke of our beautiful Maple

President Monroe responded TO Mr..

manner, complmented paw Paw on

at the spirit of fraternity and good fell

marks were Of such character as to
lead Judge Heckert TO remark IN open
ing his address that he was pleased to
see that Mr.. Rowland and Mr. Monroe
had bridged the chasm between the one
time rival towns.
The next thing on the program was

Observation-Disclosures.

The wedding OF Miss Lola Robertson
and Mr.. Carl Buskirk cook place Tues.
day afternoon last, at $3.50 o'clock, the
marriage solemnized by Rev Maurice
Grgsby, in the pretty parlors of the
future home OF the young coupls west
OF town. The day was perfect, and
the bride, pretty as a June bride should
ne, was attended by her sister, Miss
Goldie Robertson, MT Bert Smith act
ing as best man. Miss Aleen Buskirk
played her violin softly duTi1g the cere-
mony, and the rare sweetness of the
music and the fragrance OF the flowers
lent their charm to the beauty of the
seJFice. During the pleasantly spent
social hour that followed, Miss lone
Reynolds favored the guests with solos
sang To Mrs. Grigsby's accompaniment.
and II needs not To be specially men
toned that the music was beautiful and
much appreciated. Miss Alleen Bus
kirk aud Miss Lane also added to the
pleasure of the company by violin and
instrumental duets. Soon the way was
led to the new packing house, where
the main floor was transformed into
banquet hall that was bower OF beauty,
a profusion OF foliage and bloom literal
ly lining the large room. About sixty
enjoyed the courses of the wedding din
ner which followed, daintill served by
girl friends; the color scheme of white
and gol / and green being carried out in
detail. One daintily appointed room Of
the home was set aside for the wedding
gifts, which were admired 10y all, and it
is understood that there was even more

An amusing feature was the clever

day. They simply disappeared from

who were watching out for their at

country, went up the steps OF his home,
his own door opened unto him without
the aid OF the latchkey in his hand, aud
the smiling faces of the bride and groom
appeared. 1t was no vision superin
duced by the aid of grape juice, (unf,r-

occasions. He renewed briefly the early
history that led to the birth of Michigan
as state and Van Buren, as a county
and then addressed himself largely to
the grand results that bad crowned the
lahors Of the pioneers of the state and
county, rather than to the pioneers
themselves. He also reviewed the finan-
cial legislation of the recent Michigan
legislature, showing that it was practi-
cally all for the support of the charita-
bic, educational and penal institutions
OF the state. Probably there was not a
person in the audience who, after Judge
Heckert's able exposition of the n after,
would desire TO have a single one of
these institutions crippled or IN any way
hampered by any cheese pairing of need
ful appropriations. Mr. Heckert also
briefly discussed the question of refor-
estration ard predicted that the time
would eventually come when the waste
places of the land would again be
clothed with forests The closing sem
fences of his address were a masterpiece
Of eloquent word painting.
Brief and interesting remarks we're
made by Presden Monroe and Secretary
Bates.
Miss lone Reynolds favored the assem-
blage with a vocal solo, "The Songs my
Mother use to Sing" which was greatly
appreciated and received with round
1T hearty applause Miss Reynolds is "a
vocalist of more than ordinary ability.
The location of the next annual meet
ing was referred to the executive COM
mitt ee
Mrs Woodman made few remarks,
after which the meeting was dismissed
with benediction pronounced by Sec
rotary Bates
Although the weather was everything
that could have been desired the attend
ance was not as large as on some former
occasions. This was largely owing to
the lateness OF the season and the recent
bad weather that had put the farmers
so far behind with their springs work
that many felt they could not aft ord the
time to attend the meeting. However,
it was grand success and will be re-
membered as one of the very best in the
! history of the society
The hospitabe citizens of Paw Paw
had made every needful preparation for
the entertainment of their guests and
had raised a sufficient sun of money to
defray all expenses so that there was no
passing the hat" or solicitations for
funds to pay bills. And Paw Paw will
be glad at some future date to enter
tain her pioneer friends and guests.
