knotted with white satin ribbon. Her attendants were Miss Esther

Bohling, her sister, and Miss Della Gobber, sister of the groom.

rose crepe designs and carried baskets of pink and white carnations

and ferns. The groom wore a conventional suit of dark blue, and was

attended by his nephew, Leonard Lunzmann, and

Alvin Oestmann, cousin of the bride.

Following the ceremony, an elaborate wedding dinner was served

to about one hundred and fifty guests of the bride's parents.

The home was beautifully decorated with pink and white roses, and

presented a pleasing appearance. The happy couple were the

recipients of many beautiful gifts, as tokens of the esteem in

which they are held by their many friends.
