"Miss Inez was born and raised in this community, and is thus a good example of Crawford county product. Her character is as spotless as new fallen snow, her grace of manners and sweet disposition winning her numberless friends. She graduated from our local high school, afterward entering the ranks as teacher in the rural schools. Later she decided on entering the Iowa State college at Ames, where she took the whole four years course and graduated with honors. She accepted a position as secretary of the Y.W.C.A. at Des Moines and after a few months resigned it to accept a similar position at St. Louis, which she held until about six weeks ago. The wedding is a culmination of a college romance." From the Dow City paper.
"On the day of the wedding the mercury was down to 40 below zero and the young lady should appreciate a home where the thermometer does not forget itself and treat brides in that shabby fashion." From a local North Carolina paper.
