Fogarty-Neary
Yesterday Mr. William Fogarty of West Bend township and Miss Lorena
Neary of this city were united in marriage at the Assumption church at 7
a.m. Monsignor Farrelly performed the ceremony. The bride was attended by
her sister, Miss Delphine Neary, and the groom by his brother, Mr. Vern
Fogarty. Only a few relatives and friends were in attendance. Soon after the
marriage the members of the bridal party repaired to the home of the bride's
parents, Mr. and Mrs. P.C. Neary, where a sumptuous wedding meal was
enjoyed. During the day Mr. and Mrs. Fogarty left for Des Moines on a
wedding trip. They will visit friends at Grand Junction and other places
before returning home. They will reside on the groom's farm north of Rodman.
No young lady in Emmetsburg stands higher in our community than the
bride. Her parents are widely and most favorably known. They are old
residents of this vicinity. She attended school at St. Mary's Academy and
after completing her studies she accepted a position in the mercantile
establishment of J.H. Knoblauch. She was tactful, deserving and popular with
the patrons of the sotre and it is needless to say that her services were
highly appreciated by all who met her as well as by her employer.
The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Fogarty, who have lived in
the vicinity of West Bend for many years. He is a young man of industry and
promise and will no doubt soon win his way to the front among the
successful, prospective farmers of our county. We join a large number of
well wishers in extending hearty congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Fogarty.

WERE MARRIED AT WATERLOO
Mr. William Edgar Morling of Emmetsburg and Miss Helen Clare Roche of Cedar
Rapids.

The Democrat is surprised to learn that Mr. William Edgar Morling and
Miss Helen Clare Roche of Cedar Rapids were united in marriage at the M.E.
parsonage at Waterloo on Friday evening, March 25, Dr. E.J. Lockwood, the
officiating pastor. The ring ceremony was used. Only a few intimate friends
and relatives were in attendance.
The bride and groom are well and most favorably known to a large number
of our readers in this county. The bride taught in the public schools of
Emmetsburg for a couple of years and two years later was employed in the
schools of Grundy Center, where she had charge of the domestic science
department. She is a daughter of Mrs. Lois E. Roche of Cedar Rapids. She
took her course in Coe College at that place. She was held in very high
regard by our many citizens while she was in Emmetsburg and all will, we are
sure, be pleased to learn that she has become the wife of one of our most
worthy young men.
The groom has lived in Emmetsburg since boyhood. He is the oldest son
of Attorney E.A. Morling. After finishing his course in our local schools he
attended Morningside College at Sioux City and was later a student at
Cornell College. He is a young man of high purpose, industry and ability and
he has a pleasing personality. To know him is to respect him for his
sincerity and candor. He has for some time been employed in his father's
office and is deservedly popular among the business and professional people
of our community. Mr. and Mrs. Morling will, of course, make their future
home in this city. The Democrat joins a host of well wishers in extending
congratulations.

MARRIED AT SPENCER MONDAY
Mr. Ralph Rhinehart and Miss Marion Lee, Both of Ruthven

J.A. Berg of Ruthven, who was in Emmetsburg yesterday, informed our
reporter that his salesman, Mr. Ralph Rinehart and Miss Marion Lee went to
Spencer Monday where htey were united in marriage. The bride is a daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. O.S. Lee of that place. She is said to be a very deserving
young lady. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. E.H. Rinehart. He has been in
the employ of Berg & Brennan for a couple of years and is a capable,
upright, tactful young man. Mrs. and Mrs. Rinehart will of course make their
future home in Ruthven. Their many friends throughout the county wish them
health and happiness.

DID NOT WANT FORTUNES TOLD
Mrs. E.B. Soper Jr. Has Amusing Experience Made Up as a Gypsy

Last Friday an April Fool party was given at one of the homes in this
city. The ladies who were in attendance were requested to dress suitably for
the occasion and we understand that orders were obeyed. Mrs. E.B. Soper, Jr.
was attired as a gypsy fortune teller. At the close of the party she came up
town and called on C.W. Beck, Mr. Greengo of the Northern Iowa Gas &
Electric Co., Justice Stuehmer, Mr. Soper, her husband and several other
local business men. Her make up was so good that they did not know her and
she was very persistant about telling their fortunes. She denies that she
was ordered out of any of the places she visited but she has an interesting
story to tell about how she was treated. All know how welcome the average
gypsy's fortune teller is when she enters any of the stores or offices of
our community.

DOES NOT SEEK RE-ELECTION
Supt. Florence Underwood Will Go West at Close of Term in September

Contrary to general expectations, Miss Underwood was not a candidate
for re-election as county superintendent at a meeting held yesterday. Hence
the presidents of the city,town and rural district boards of the county who
met did not take any definite action in the matter. Miss Underwood intends
going west at the close of her term in September. Hers services as a officer
have been more than satisfactory and the public in general had no idea that
she intended retiring. At yesterday's meeting Ralph Smith, Mrs. W.S.
Schroeder and Dr. Keeney were re-elected as members of the county board of
education and a committee was appointed to meet with the county supervisors
to discuss the salary question and consider applications for superintendent.

of McCarty & McCarty, has formed a partnership with Dan Kelly. The firm will
