Review Of the
Palm Program

The largest crowd since the
opening night, was out last
night. We felt that every
body that attended the Benefit
had their moneys worth, as the
program was a wonder. "The
Count and the Cow Boys" was
the best of the bill. The come.
dy work of all in the picture
was great, and brighter or more
clear cut Photography work
has never been shown in Miss
ouri Valley. That part makes
US feel good. Mr.. Murray, at
the machine, had things under
his control even better than u.s.
ual, consequently the pictures
showed up to their full worth.
The Gaumont picture, "The
Cd Home" was one of the most
beautiful Dramas that we have
ever shown. The camera work
IN this subject was also of the
oest. This program will be on
again tonight, though we imag-
inc that nearly everybody in
town has seen the pictures.
Tomorrow comes the big
feature that we have been ad.
vertlsing. 1.-The Irish Honey
moon" This picture was taken
upon the "Irish Sod," and it is
the first picture to show many
Of the beautiful scenes. This
reel costs US extra money, so
we are looking forward to some
thing fine. We might add here
that the reel is new, it having
been released from the Kalem
factory the 9Th of March, so ii
will be only nine days old WHEN
We get it.

To the strains of the Mendolh-
sons wedding march played
by Mrs. Earl Doty, the bridal
party, unattended, entered the
parlor and took their places at
the altar. A large white bell
suspended from the ceiling
with festoons of the prevailing
colors, green and white and a
bank of ported plants and white
roses formed a beautiful back
ground for the impressive ring
ceremony.
The marriage lines were read
by the Rev. w. B. Crewdson of
Logan
The bride was attired in a
pure white, embroidered swiss
made with fillet net and a deep
satin girdle and wore a corsage
boquet of lilies of the valley
and roses. The groom was in
the conventional black.
In the dining room the color
scheme was carried out with
festoons from the corners of
the room to the chandelier dir
ectly over the table and fasten-
ed with small white bells. A
large boquet of white carnations
formed a centerpiece. The
guests were seated at one long
table and a three course supper
was served.
lhe gifts We're many and
beautiful. The bride and groom
are both popular young people
of sterling character.
They will reside on the farm
of the groom's father, where a
home is being built for them
and where we know there will
always be a welcome to their
friends.
A reception will be tended
them Thursday evening at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs ]. 3.

ty invitations had been issued.
