    • H. E. Worrell and Miss Josephine Day were united in marriage at the home of the bride's parents Wednesday evening at eight o'clock by Rev. Geo. A. Beecher. The ceremony was performed in the parlor and the bridal couple stood in the bay window which had been converted into a veritable floral bower. The bride wore a handsome white organdie and carried a bunch of white roses. The groom was clad in the usual black. They made a very fine looking couple. At the close of the wedding ceremony an elegant supper was served to the assembled guests. In addition to the family those present were Rev. and Mrs. G. A. Beecher, Mr. and Mrs. Miltonberger, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Blickensderter, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Redmond, and Miss Laura Irish. The groom, who is principal of the Brady schools, is a young man of sterling integrity and one who is bound to make his mark in educational circles. The bride has resided in North Platte for a number of years and is a very charming young lady with hosts of friends. Mr. and Mrs. Worrell left on No. 6 for their home in Brady.
