| 2800 |  | Marriage- Farrell, Anna-Pearl, James 2 The groom, Mr. Pearl, is one of the most promising young business men in our city, courteous and well balanced. For the bride, this community feels an especial mark of respect. As local editor of the Star for a number of years she had displayed unusual tact and business ability. Frequently much of the writer's time has been taken up with the management of city affairs, and yet withal, our absolute confidence in her ability to take care of every situation which arose during these times has never been misplaced once. She has possessed tact and judgment far beyond her years, and her ability to readily grasp and understand the larger problems of business stands well above the average. Contrary to the rule, the possession of these marks of business ability did not deteriorate, in the least, her inherent qualities of womanly refinement - a broad cultural sympathy which baffled the trying tests of newspaper life, tests which often toughen the most tender sympathies, and rob editors of their faith in the good-will existing in people with whom they come in contact. We regret her loss to the Star, and congratulate Mr. Pearl on a union with a high type of American Catholic womanhood. |
