Versailles is a town of so, 900 or more

The park 81 Versailles is perhaps a
nile square, an enormous basin, in the
shape OF a cross quartering it at its cen
ire. On its eastern edge, nearest Paris
stands the palace OF Versailles, the
houses Of the town huddled around it
and the palace chapel rising above it.
Inc palace was used not only by Louis

for his court. 1t consists of two wings,

Carter. Sullivan

A beautiful but very quiet wedding
occurred at the home of Mrs. NJ. E.
Carter, Wednesday morning at 1890
when her daughter, Miss Maud, was
united in marriage to Mr.. Frank Sui
livan, of Thompsonville, Illinois. The
bride and groom stood in front of a
bank of ferns while Rev Melville,
pastor of the U. B. church, conducted
the ring ceremony.
The bride was very charming in a
simple white crepe de chine dress the
only trimming being deep tucks and
dainty buttons. She carried a beau
tiful bouquet of white and pink ros-
es. The groom wore a suit of dark
blue broadcloth.
On account of the illness of the
brides mother, the ceremony was a
simple one witnessed by only few of
the relatives.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sullivan left after the
wedding dinner, on the noon train for
Larned, Kansas, where they will make
their home Mr.. Sullivan is Profes-
sor of Agriculture in the city schools

The romance of Mr.. and Mrs. Sui
livan began at Hays, where they both
attended the Fort Hays Normal. Mr..
Sullivan has spent over a year in
France in army service and received
his degree from Fort Hays Normal
this spring.
This day was especially unique, it
being the sixth wedding anniversary
of the brides sister, Mrs. George
