THE DEMOCRAT

On Wednesday afternoon the marriage of Miss Velma Herath and Mr. Man ford Shrimplln took place at the M. E. parsonage in Kentland. Mrs. Shrimplln is the eldest daughter of Mr.- and Mrs. Frank Herath and is one of the popular young ladles of the younger set in Brook, while the groom is a young farmer living near Donovan. They will be at home on the farm just north of his father s about March 1. They have a large number of friends here who wish them success. * This week has been a busy one in the real estate and business trading line Brook. Ormond Pruett bought the Kemper meat market, and Alva Rowley and sons traded the grocery and all their residence property for 200 acres of land in Wisconsin. An invoice will be taken the first of the month. With the store went the dwelling houses owned by the father and sons. Mr. Rowley and the boys and famSies will move directly to Wisconn. On Tuesday evening Miss Ruth Lawrence and Mr. Walter Sell were married at the Methodist parsonage by the Rev. John J. Wilson. While it was known by their friends that the young couple have been preparing a home at the Shindler place, the of the wedding had been kept a secret, and as neither of the contracting parties, wished a

formal wedding they quietly slipped away to the parsonage and after the ceremony went to Chicago for a few days’ stay, when they will return and occupy the Shindler home until they can build their own house in West Brook on the home farm. Last week we noted the purchase of ejght cars of cattle by O. M. Lyons, but this is not half of the chapter. The feeders in this section have come to regard his judgment as to when and what to buy as the best there is and they were willing to plunge this time although they have had a bad year just passed, so they went with him and purchased 469 head or 20 carloads. The cattle represent an outlay of $48,000 and with the exception of three loads they go to the various farms of what is known as the Lyons, Rich and Light crowd, who have extensive land interests all over the country. But this not all the cattle purchases they- will make during the year, but this is the biggest so far this fall.

December 5, 1919. 'Dear Sir —One of the wonders of the Essex is its simplicity and freedom from complication. The elimination of; many useless trouble-making parts does away with the necessity for constant adjustments. This means long life - and uninterrupted service. It also results in a >more practical and beautiful car. A glance at the Essex motor, the heart of any automobile, will impress you with its simplicity. There is none of the bewildering mass of complicated parts found on ordinary motors. And the result is the marvelous performance which has amazed the thousands of persons who have ridden in the Essex- The smooth riding qualities, comfort, ease of control and economy are largely due to the simplicity born of mechanical perfectipn. Won’t you come and ride with us in the Essex and see for yourself? We will be glqd to place it at your disposal at any hour you name. Yours very truly,
