A pretty lawn wedding took place at Catawba, July 6, when Miss Rosana Droese, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Droese, Catawba, exchanged vows with Norman Kramer, son of Mrs. Anna Kramer, Unity. Mrs. Walter Droese, a sister-in-law of the bride, was organist and Mrs. Leonard Senger, a niece, sang "Because."

Presented in marriage by her father, the bride wore a white niron and lace gown, elbow length white gloves and a long tulle veil, and carried a bouquet of roses.

Ruth Rathke, of Milwaukee, a cousin of the bride, in a yellow chiffon frock, was maid of honor, while Bernice Kramer, Marshfield, the groom’s sister, in blue niron, served as bridesmaid. Their headdresses and bouquets were fashioned of yellow roses.

The groom’s attendants were Leonard Senger and George Droese, a brother of the bride.
