CUPID WAS ACTIVE ALL DAY WEDNESDAY

Four Young Couples Procure Licenses and Have Knots Tied by Ministers and Squire. County Clerk Perkins and |xie deputy, Miss Eva Moore, had a busy day Wednesday in the marriage license department. There were four couples on hand at about the same time and each couple after procuring the license was married before they left town. Rev. Harper had the best of the bargain, two of the couples applying at the parsonage for the ceremony. He joined in matrimonial bonds Mr. Walter Frank Zimmerman, a carpenter, of Remington, and Miss Lillian May Turner, also of that town. A little later he was called upon to marry Harvey Roy Keen and Miss Yernice Alice Bill daughter of John Bill, of Jordan township. The groom is a young farmer and they will reside of? a farm near Goodland. Rev. Winn, of ' the Christian church, married a Gillam township couple, namely, Frank Orvel Buckley and Miss Effie Dell Bisher. The groom is a farmer and they will reside on a Gillam township farm. Squire Irwin suspended other active business long enough Wednesday afternoon to pledge in marriage Luther Tow and Miss Mary Elizabeth Rees, of Gillam township. The young folks were all mighty nice looking and the spirit of Christmas joy beamed with effulgence from their countenances. There will be four mighty happy honeymoons in progress at Christmas time.
