Social Notes

Perhaps not for a number Of years
has Fargo society known so many
weddings as will be distributed about
evenly between the popular marriage
seasons OF Easter and June. Fargo
girls to be married in June include
many from the best social circles In
the city and with the coming Of the
two most popular bridal seasons there
will be attendant the usual avalanche
Of showers, luncheons and dinners for
which the Fargo hostesses are noted,
Announcements for the June weddings
will come a little later, and this seas
on above all others seems to be the
favored one for brides-to-be of Fargo.
This weeks society columns contained
several interesting weddings and after
Easter the two most attractive we'd
dings Of the entire season will be SOL
emnized. The first will take place
Monday morning in the chapel of the
st. Mary's cathedral. when Miss Lau-
ra Herdeg and Francis J. Osborne will
take the marriage VOW. Both are
popular in Fargo society circles and
the bride has been the recipient of
much attention during the past week.
On April IT will take place the mar
riage Of Miss Mary Elliott, n of the
most talented and popular members
of Fargo's most exclusive society set.
Miss Elliott will probably be one Of the
most feted brides of the year. Her
wedding to John Schruth. a WELL
known young business mar of Fargo,
will be solemnized at st. Mary's ca
thedral and the details as announced
will be watched with much interest
by her large list Of admiring friends
and acquaintance. During the past
week have been chronicled the we'd
dings Of Miss Grace Walker and AL
bert p, Close of Portland, Ore. Miss
Walker is the daughter of MI. and
Mrs. e. Walker of Moorhead and she
is one of that city's most popular
young ladies. The event took place
Wednesday at the brides home at
high noo Another wedding which
created much attention in the circles
in which both young people are pop
ular was that Of Miss Alice Oglin and
g. A. Johnsrud which took place at
the parsonage of the st. Marks Lu-
theran church Wednesday evening.
The list of Easter weddings also in
cludes that of SMiss Emma Nokken,
and Peter Livdahl, both well known in
Moorhead and vicinity. The wedding
took place at the farm home of the
bride Tuesday afternoon. A pretty
wedding will be solemnized early in
May and N which will attract the
attention of musical circles is that of
Miss Clara Bohnsack, a charming
member of Fargo musical set, and Geo.
.Bohlig of st. Paul Miss Bohnsack
has already quite a list of engage
ments which will fill her p~re-nuptiaI
days with happy events One other
wedding which occurred as rather a
surprise to their friends was that of |
Miss Anna J.. Lee and Max O'Donnell
and was quietly solemnized at the
Presbyterian manse on Wednesday.
The list Of June weddings is even Iarg-
er than the Easter schedule and So
