"At the pleasant and hospitable country home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Paul J. Scott, six miles west of Maquoketa, on New Year 's day at 6 p.m., their only daughter Florence Bothilda, and Carl Peter Frandsen were united in the bonds of holy matrimony by the bride's pastor, Rev. D.F. Boomershine, using the beautiful and impressive ring ceremony. Andrew N. Scott, brother of the bride, and Mary Cathryn Frandsen, sister of the groom, stood up with them.

At the appointed hour the bridal party took their places in the parlor under a white wedding bell with a background of evergreen and festooning of white and orange color crepe paper, where the vows were taken that united them as husband and wife. After the happy congratulations of the thirty assembled guests were tendered, the happy couple led the way to the dining room where a bounteous wedding supper was served and enjoyed to the fullest extent.

The bride is a charming and amicable young lady and well fitted by nature and experience to become the better half of the man who wooed and won her as his bride. She wore an elegant bridal gown of flesh color georgette crepe, trimmed in white pearl beading and satin ribbon and a full trailing bridal veil fastened with an orange spray and carried a large show er bouquet of white carnations and ferns.

The bridesmaid wore a gown of white chemise silk and carried a shower bouquet of white carnations and ferns.

The groom is the elder son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew P. Frandsen of near Baldwin, a graduate of the Baldwin schools, a master mechanic in the Ford Tractor Co. at Dearborn, Mich., for a year and saw service during the war at Norfolk, Va., for nine months. He is an ambitious and exemplary young man and wore a suit of dark gray broadcloth and wore white carnations and ferns.

The groomsman wore a suit of dark gray broadcloth and a nosegay of white carnations and ferns. The bridal gifts were beautiful, useful and expressive of the high esteem they were held by their friends. They left for a tenda-day bridal tour on Monday for Chicago, Ill., and other points in the East to visit relatives of the groom and points of interest.

After February 1st these worthy young people will be at home to their many friends on the bride's father's farm, two miles southwest of Maquoketa, where all join in wishing them a long, happy and useful life."
