MARRIED IN MICHIGAN

On July Fourth, Mr. Oscar Winkelmiller, principal owner and manager of the Two Rivers Knitting Mills and Miss Florence Grover, the handsome and accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Grover, were united in marriage at St. Joe, Michigan. The fact somehow leaked out on Sunday, after their return from what they wished to have considered "only a trip to Chicago" and on Sunday evening they were serenaded by a party of their young friends. Of course the happy union was not unanticipated, but no one guessed the time or place. All however, unite in extending congratulations and good wishes.
