Kilmer,Popular Wil. mette Manicurist, Surprises Friends With Wedding, Dan Cupids with a true aim, has pierced the heart of one of Wilmette's most popular public servants, and to crown a romance which has been en- acted aurtng tne last two weeks. •BBmJL Kilmer, former proprietor of a beauty shop in the Wilmette Ex- change State Bank building, has be- come a bride, thus surprising her clos- est friends. For some time the beauty aid has been telling her close friends that the wedding bells would sooa chime for her, but she would not hint at the date. She did not even infer that she was going to be listed with the June brides. She Sprung a com- plete surprise. On Monday the story leaked out. Although somewhat reticent the beauty expert' admitted that "recently" she had become the bride of Mr. John M. Van Braraer of Evanston, and that after Monday, June 15, she would no longer be found ministering to the beauty needs of the scores of. north shore women who have been her cus- tomers. She is to be matron of a cozy little home in Edge water. Mrs. Van Bramer has been engaged mette for about seven years and,' be- cause of her charming personality, has built up a business that included the patronage from lake shore towns from WUmette to Waukegan. She is popular .with all of her patrons and will be missed in this community. Mr. Van Bramer Is a mechanical engineer, and is employed by the Standard Oil company. He holds a responsible po- sition -with the Chicago branch of the Rockefeller mammoth industry. Miss Martha Behrens, who has been assistant in the Kilmer beauty parlor, has purchased the business from Mrs. Van Bramer. She has been with Mrs. Van Bramer for the last four-years.
