A western editor who believes in telling the truth, printed the follow- in; recently: “ Willie Shortlike and Bettie Bloomers were married at the church last evening. The church was very prettily decorated with flowers and potted plants. hor- rowed promiseously from over town from peotile who didn’t want. to lend them. The decoration was done un- der protest by some of the members of the church, who were asked to do 90 by the bride, and couldn’t well refuse. The ladies are of the opinion that if the couple were so bent on having a stylish wedding they should have been willing to have paid some one to chase all over the town for a day getting: flowers together and taking them home again.
