GO-ED Miss Cornelia Blake, 4650 Beacon street, Chicago, who six years ago was a charming freshman co-ed in North- western university, has added the final chapter to a romantic dual courtship. Miss Blake had two suitors; she liked them both.

W. Wermuth of Chicago. However, even by looking into the depth of the blinking brilliants, Miss Blake was unable to decide which young man she should love and cherish "until death do us part" As a remit, about two weeks ago^engagement announcement* appeared simultaneously In Chicago and Ottumwa papers. In each an- nouncement Miss Blake was engaged to a different man. Mr. Garner waa sure that he was to marry Mis* Blake, while Dr. Wermuth «ald, "He should worry, the date is set." Miss Blake and her parents decided In favor of the doctor. The other announcement, they said, was the result of a misin- terpreted telegram. So ended chapter one. Chapter two began and ended Sat- urday when young Garner appeared in Chicago and" married Miss Blake. It was a matter of only two hours for the Iowa man to arrange a meeting with the young lady, find a minister and to start back to Ottumwa with hi* bride.

Lawrence Gamer are busy arranging their little home In Ottumwa. All three of the principal* In the romance are well known In Univer- sity circles. In fact the "cases-began ok the college campus.
