Theis, Mary Magdalena (Marriage - April 1925)

Wednesday morning a happy wedding was solemnized at St. Joseph's church, Fairview, when Rev. Fr. Raschke pronounced the words which united for life's journey Miss Mary Magdalena, daughter of Mr. John Theis, and Mr. Paul Vernon Elger, both of this village. Miss Anna Theis, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid, and Anton Mayer, Jr., was best man.

Following the ceremony, these young people wnt direct to the farm in Thompson valley, of which the groom has been in charge for the past two years, which will be their home.

Mr. Elger and his bride are well known young people of this vicinity, having grown to young manhood and young womanhood in our midst. For several years he was employed in South Dakota, on some of the large ranches, returning two years ago and locating on the farm where he has now taken his helpmate. The happy bride, with her sister, has been housekeeper for her father for a number of years, and since moving to town was employed part of the time in teh telephone office.

We add our best wishes and congratulations to those of the host of friends of Mr. and Mrs. Elger.
