of Goodland, Kan, announce the mar
riage of their daughter, Lois Amelia,
to Mr.. James J. Palmer, of New
Haven. Conn. The wedding took place
in Washington, D. c., on Thursday,
November IS. The ceremony was
read in the presence of a few friends
and was a very simple affair, the only
attendants being Miss Ella Waldron,
of Topeka, who was bridesmaid, and
Mr.. James O'Byrne, of Washington,
who was Mr.. Palmer's attendant.
The bride wore travelling dress of
brown tricotine. Brown velvet hat
and brown shoes completed the cos
tune.
The wedding is of interest to many
Topeka people as we'll as those over
the state. Mrs. Palmer spent six years
in Washburn college. where she did
three years of preparatory and three
years of college work. She studied
music in Kansas university one year
and finished her course at Washburn
in 1917. She is a member of the
Alpha Phi sorority and while in Wash
burn lived at the chapter house in Col
lege avenue.
After a year of teaching music in
her home town, she took additional
work in music at Northwestern uni
versity, Evanston, Ill, last summer
and shortly afterwards accepted a
government position in the war risk
insurance department at Washington.
Mrs. Palmer is a native of Kansas.
She is very pretty young woman and
while in Washburn was popular with
both the boys and girls of the college.
Her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Murphy.
are well known over the state. Mrs.
Murphy is a prominent club woman
and an active worker in the state
federation.
Mr.. Palmer is a graduate of Yale
college where he took a seven years
course, graduating in 1914 with the
degrees of A B. and LII. D. He prac-
ticed law in New Haven, Conn, until
last January when he was called to
Washington to take the position of
assistant general counsel of the war
risk insurance department..
Mr.. and Mrs. Palmer have gone for
a short wedding trip after which they
