MISS GROSS BECOMES A BRIDE
Welded to Herman Neumeister at
High Noon Tuesday

Miss Edith Gross, one Of Cakes
most popular young ladies, was mar
'ried to Herman Neumeister at Fargo
Tuesday noon. Miss Gross has been
the guest Of honor at many social
affairs in the city this spring, given
in honor Of her approaching marriage,
revealing the high esteem in which
she is held by her countless friends.
Mr.. Neumeister was manager Of the
Baldwin flour mill here for some time,
and has q wide acquaintance in the
city, being well liked by all. While
regret that the young folks are not
to make their home with us is uni
versal, all unite in wishing for them
"a full measure Of happiness and all
the good things Of life in their new
home. The following account of the
wedding is taken from. the Fargo
Forum Of Tuesday evening: y
"Miss Edith Gross, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. C. I. Gross of Oakes, N. D.,
former well known Fargoans, became
the bride Of Herman Neumeister Of
Graceville, Minn., at high noon to-
day, the ceremony being performed at
the Gethsemane cathedral, Dean Hen
ry F. Kloman officiating.
"The bride wore a gown of white
organdy over a satin foundation with
wedding veil held in place with a
wreath of orange blossoms and her
bouquet was a shower of white roses
and sweet peas. Mrs. A. A. Lorsh-
bough of Fargo, lifelong friend Of
the bride, was matron of honor and
wore periwinkle georgette with a
corsage of sweet peas. The BRIDE
groom was attended by Elvin Lufoff,
a friend from his home city, Dodge
vile, Wis.
"The wedding luncheon was served
at the Gardner hotel following the
service. Sweet peas, in baskets tied
with bows Of maline in the pastel
shades, decorated the tables. Covers
were laid for intimate friends of the
family.
"Mr. and Mrs. Neumeister left to-
day for Duluth, from which point they
will take the Great Lakes trip to De-
troit, Mich. The return trip will be
made by automobile. They will be at
home at Graceville, Mimi, where Mr..
Neumeister. is manager Of the Bald
win flour mill, after July Is.
"Mrs. Neumeister is a graduate of
the Fargo high school and of the
home economic department of the
North Dakota Agricultural college.
She taught for a few years follow
ing her graduation from college. For
the past year she has been with her
parents at home."

dustrial commission he had charge of
those departments, but promised if
continued as servant Of the people
to recommend to the next legislature
plan to put the mill and elevator and
the bank loan department under
boards Of management that would be
nonpolitical and as efficient as he could
make them.
He promised rigid economy to the
end that taxes may be lessened. The
heavy burden Of taxation, especially
on real estate, the basis Of our wealth
and Of our living, was entirely too
high.
The governor made good impress
sion on those who had gathered to
hear him and nearly all fingered that
they might take him by the hand and
nearly all promised loyal support.

WIRTH TO BATTLE ST. PAUL BOY
Local Pugilist Will Take ON Fast Twin
City Lightweight

Julius wirth, Cakes 1873 pound
scrapper, has been matched to 60. ten
rounds with Billy Shauers Of st. Paul
next Monday evening at the G. M. G.
hall. The promoters are predicting q
fast and lively bout, and the card
certainly ought to provide some fire.
works. Billy is a brother Of the well
known Johnny Shauers, and is reputed
to be a tough nut to crack himself.
He outweighs the local man five
pounds, but julius says he doesn't
care If he weighs 200.
Wirth has been training in Fargo,
working out with Russie Leroy and
Leo Stokes, Fargo's top notchers, and
will be in the pink Of condition for the
battle. With such handling he ought
to be able to put up the fight Of his
life, and we predict that Mr.. Shauers
will find he has not been attending q
pink tea by the end Of the tenth
frame. Julius packs a husky wallop,
can take a world Of punishment, and
is long way from being slow. Oakes
fans have no fear Of the outcome, and
look for their man to make much
better showing. than he did against
Kid Fogarty, when he was trained
too fine, but earned good draw in
spite Of it.
+ Two three-round preliminaries be-
tween local boys will precede the main
go, making sixteen rounds in all. The
first bout will start promptly at 9:15.
This fight card is being staged under
the auspices Of the Oakes A. c., the
American Legion having withdrawn
from the promoting game.

WILL CELEBRATE
FOURTH OF JULY
Plans Being Laid to Make the Eagle
Scream in Oakes on Inde-
pendence Day
COMMUNITY PICNIC PLANNED
Free Coffee and Lemonade Served at
n. Donation Park

It looked fora while as. if Qakes
was going to pass up Fourta 0f July
celebration this year, but some Of
our citizens decided this week that
that would never do, and forthwith
proceeded to start something. The
business men Of the city on being in
terviewed readily fell in with the
scheme, and assurance is now made
that Oakes will be on the map on In
day, as usual. While ar
rangements have not been completed
at this time, tentative plans have
been drawn, and we will be able to
give some idea Of the days events.
The program in detail will be pub
lished in an early issue.
The ever faithful band boys will be
on the job to see that there is plenty
of inspiring music to enliven the oc-
casion. Sports Of various kinds will
be arranged for, including foot races
for the various ages and classes Of
girls, boys and grownups, and horse
races. The prizes for the foot races
will consist of merchandise donated
ny GIlS NoIlOU6 UOS1lSSS uIUu6, Willie
cash prizes will probably be offered
for the horse races. No affair Of this
kind would be complete without ball
game, and we are going to have one,
and perhaps two. Efforts are being
made to book a game for IL o'clock
in the morning, and also at 8 in the
afternoon.
A community picnic is being plan
ned for the day. Everyone will be
urged to bring a picnic dinner and
eat lunch at Donation park during
the noon hour. = The committee in
charge have arranged to serve free
coffee and lemonade to all, so bring
your eats and let the business men
of Oakes furnish the drinks.
The merry go-round will be on the
job early and late to delight the
hearts of the kiddies. Several out
side attractions have been mentioned
as possibilities for entertainment, but
have not been definitely arranged for
as yet.

this year on Monday, June 10, for a
four days stay. The engagement will
open with an evening program on
Monday, and both afternoon and even
ing programs will be presented on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
An effort is being made to arrange a
home talent offering for the afternoon
of opening day, but this has not been
definitely settled as yet. The chau-
tauqua tent will be pitched on the
same location as last year, just north
of the ]. w. Bush residence on south
Second street. Season tickets are
now being sold by the guarantors of
the undertaking, and considerable
saving can be made by securing sea-
son tickets before the chautauqua
opens. The price of season tickets
is $500. We trust this years chau-
tauqua will receive sufficient support
so that deficit will not have to be
borne by those individuals who are
guaranteeing the project, and ex-
pending considerable time and effort
in order that the community may have
the benefit of these clean entertain
ments and inspirational lectures.
A brief chautauqua announcement
by the platform superintendent will
be made the first evening, and Ash
Davis will furnish the evenings
amusement. Mr.. Davis entertain
ment is unique and happy combina-
tion of wholesome wit and humor and
skillful, artistic cartoons which vary
from the laugh, provoking comics u
the most beautiful landscapes.
A vocal entertainment by Ye Old
Home Singers opens the afternoon
session Tuesday. This is a mixed
quartet, presenting a program of high
grade ensemble numbers and solos,
including the old melodies of real
beauty. In their concert work there
will also be some clever varied enter
tainment features. Following this,
DR.. Geo. P. Bible will deliver mes
sage of optimism and humorous phil
osophy, his subject being "Life and
Opportunity"
The Bernabo Concert company ap-
pear first Wednesday afternoon. This
organization is composed of Emilia
Bernabo, an unusual Italian soprano;
Lorenz Trepiccioni, fine Italian ten
or, and Hazel Grunkemeyer, the splen-
cid accompanist and reader. "Smil-
ing Bob" Briggs, an entertainer
with a distinctly original program,
will follow the Bernabo company. His
combination of original impersona-
tions, readings, cartoons and songs is
clever and unique. The evening pro-
gram will be presented by the same
group Of artists, but with an entirely
different Offering.
On Thursday afternoon the Inter-
national orchestra will give a full
program of classical and popular or
chestral numbers. This musical COM
pany consists of violin, piano, clarinet,
drums, cornet and xylophone. A COM
munity address by VIM. Jno. Minges
entitled Indicators will be the clos
ing number. Music by the Interna-
tional quintet will precede Mr.. Minges'
