The sunshade seems to be a rock

that sticks out In the appointment In

For a breakfast where the guests are

Guests unable to attend wedding re-

persons In whose name the invitations

times sent to the bride and groom. but
this is unnecessary. An Invitation to

Those who are unable to be present
should certainly acknowledge in some

in the case of the friends of the bride

Mrs. Marshall had the honor of be-

an Office. She was appointed county
clerk of Steuben county by her father
and held that office for number Of
years
When Governor Marshall and his
wife were about to be married she de-

having established the practice Of go

Mrs Marshall Is as much Of hui

at some of the bills that have been
passed by the 1911 Indiana legislature
gives an insight into the governor:
To curtai child labor.
TO regulate sale Of cold storage prod
ncts.
To require hygienlc schoolhouses
and medical examination of children.
To prevent blindness at birth.
To regulate sale of cocaine and
other drugs.
To provide free treatment for by
drophobia.
To establish public Fairgrounds.
To improve pure food laws.
To protect against loan sharks.
To provide police court matrons.

To permit night schools

To establish free employment agen-

To require full train crews.
To require safety devices on switch

To require efficient headlights ON

To require standard cabooses.
To provide weekly wage, etc.
