    Mrs. Josephine DeGraff and Herman Johnson were married Friday at Lyndon, Kansas and Rossville friends are pleased to extend congratulations and best wishes.

    Mr. and Mrs. Johnson worked so well together in building up a fine restaurant business here that they decided to make it a permanent arrangement when Mr. Johnson traded for a Wabaunsee county farm. We are sure they will succeed equally as well with their farm venture.

    Mrs. Clara Mae Farley and Mrs. Murray will look after the kitchen under the new owner of the former [missing rest]
