Wedding Bells.

Mr. VIM. Haug and Miss Ethel
Gullett were united in marriage
at the home of the latter Decem-
Der 81, 1908, at 8 o'clock before
small company of friends and
relatives of the bride and groom,
Rev. J. w. Vanderlip spoke the
word that was to unite them for
life.
Everything moved off beauti-
fully and after congratulations
and good wishes had been offer
ed, the company sat down to a
table spread with dainties that
would tempt the palate of an cpl
cure.
The bride was tastefully dress
ed in white and the groom wore
a luStrouS suit of broadcloth.
All considered, [ presume it will
not fiatter them to say that a
nicer looking couple would be
hard to find.
Many beautiful presents were
showered upon them by admir-
ing friends.
The bride and groom are too
well known to admit of introduc-
ton, both having grown from in
fancy to manhood and woman
hood in our midst.
The groom has an improved
farm in the SouthWeStern-p part of
the county where they will go to
housekeeping at once. A host of
friends join in wishing them a
happy and prosperous life.
A FRIEND.
