MARRIED AT LITTLE BROWN
CHURCH.
Miss Viola Anderson of DEBORAH, Be-
came Bride of Mr.. Charles Cap
per, of Elgin Last Wednesday.

The marriage of Miss Viola An
derson, of DEBORAH, a daughter or
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver Anderson, CT
this city, to Mr.. Chas. Capper, of
Elgin, took place on Sept. 20. The
bride is one of Decorah's extremely
popular and highly esteemed young
women, and the past year has been
the efficient Chief Operator at the
Standard Telephone office.
The Elgin Echo has the following
to say about the marriage of this
popular young couple, and their
host of friends here join with us
in extending congratulations and best
wishes: .
On Wednesday. September 20. 1922,
at the Little Brown Church in the
Vale, at Nashua, Iowa, occurred the
marriage of Mr.. Charles Capper of
our town and Miss Viola Anderson,
of DEBORAH.
The young couple were attended by
only the necessary witnesses and i'm
mediately after the ceremony left on
wedding trip for Waterloo, Cedar
Rapids and Minneapolis, where they
will visit relatives and friends for a
week or ten days before coming to
Elgin to make their home in the
rooms over the Teller hardware store
where Charles has all in readiness
for housekeeping.
The groom is we'll known Elgin
boy and is graduate of our public
schools. He, has spent his life among
us and is known to all as thrifty,
hard working young man with bust
ness insight. During the world war
he was in the navy at Great Lakes
and ready for a wireless station
when the amistice stopped hostili-
ties. After his return from service
he has been his fathers assistant in
the postoffice and also conducted
Capper's Chicken Hatchery, of which
enterprise he is making a deserved
success. Always affable and of
pleasing address he has made friends
of all who know him and his many
friends extend congratulations as he
takes unto himself a wife.
The bride is not so well known to
our people but has visited here on
several occasions. She is an accom-
plished young lady and is highly
spoken of by a legion of friends in
her home town. She has a pleasing
personality and the womanly traits
that will make her an ideal helpmate
for the man of her choice.

sonal viewpoint of sender or receiver, climbed
into the stand and attempted to Dust spec
tator for shouting abusive epithets-a move
which was unsuccessful because the spectator
refused to remain to be busted" Mr.. Ruth
then took matters up with an umpire, who
called him out at second base when he attempt

Because dirt was thrown on the umpire in the
course Of the disagreement at second base Mr.
Ruth was tossed out Of the game for several
days.
Some harsh words which the benched Mr..
Ruth applied to another umpire added more
days TO the suspension.
The press took up the matter in way that
was hurtful TO the remnant Of the Ruth pride.
Editorial writer's deserted the tariff and the
ship subsidy and such matters and moralized
on the Ruth case, generally to the effect that
the player was suffering from overabundance
of ego.
