Schaney-Higgins
This morning, at an early hour, Mr. Leo Schaney and Miss Loretta Higgins of
this city were united in marriage at the Assumption church, Monsignor P.F.
Farrelly officiating. The groom was attended by his friend, Mr. Matthew
Kane, and the bride by her sister, Miss Mary Higgins. Only a few intimate
relatives and friends were present at the nuptial mass. On repairing to the
home of the bride's father, Mr. J.J. Higgins, of this city, the bride and
groom and a few invited guests enjoyed a sumptuous wedding dinner. Mr. and
Mrs. Schaney left during the day on a wedding trip. On their return they
will live on the farm of P.C. Jackman, grandfather of Mr. Schaney.
The bride grew to womanhood in the vicinity of Ayrshire. In 1918 the family
moved to Emmetsburg. A couple of years ago she took a course in the Domestic
Science department of the Iowa State College at Ames. She was for some time
employed in the millinery department of the Geyerman Garment store. Her
pleasing personality and her disposition, which is always happy and
cheerful, have made her a favorite with the young people among whom she has
mingled.
The groom is the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Schaney, so well and
favorably known to our many local readers. He is energetic, industrious and
wide awake and has proven himself exceptionally capable in the lines in
which he has applied himself. He is a hustler and will doubtless prove
himself a successful farmer. We need not say that a wide circle of relatives
and well wishers unite with the Democrat in offering hearty congratulations
to Mr. and Mrs. Schaney.

Mrs. C.J. Berger Undergoes an Operation
Monday Mrs. C.J. Berger of this city, who was quite ill for some time,
underwent a surgical operation for an ulcer on one of her kidneys. Dr.
O'Keefe, one of the hospital specialists at Sioux City, assisted by Dr.
Hennessey and Brerton, performed the operation. Mrs. Berger's condition is
still considered quite serious and her relatives and friends have reason to
feel worried regarding her chances for recovery. Dr. O'Keefe came from Sioux
City to Fonda over the Illinois Central where Carl Berger met him by car and
brought him to Emmetsburg. He is the surgeon who operated on Miss Kirby some
time ago.

his legs quite badly. The limb annoyed him some last year. His neighbors and
friends hope to see him about again soon.
