TRIPLE WEDDING ON WEDNESDAY EVE

The Lutheran church of our little city was the scene of a triple wedding Wednesday evening, when three of our highly esteemed young people were united in the holy bonds of matrimony.
Miss Christiana Heiser and Mr. Arthur Walin, Miss Sophie Heiser and Mr. Elmer Pearson, Miss Althea Walin and Mr. Edward Heiser were the contracting parties.
The three marched into the church while Mrs. E. E. Eliason played the familiar strains of Lohengrin's Wedding March, taking their places before the altar, which, like the church proper, was beautifully decorated in pink and white. The doubleg ceremony was used, Rev. Peterson, pastor of the church, performing the ceremony.
The brides wore white wedding gowns and veils.
Mr. A.H. Peterson sang a solo preceeding the ceremony.
Following the ceremony, a reception and supper were held in the church parlors, with immediate relative in attendance.
Heartiest congratulations and best wishes go with these happy young couples who were born and reared in this community, and where they will make their future home. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Walin and Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Pearson will live on the Mcr farm, southwest of Ceresco and Mr. and Mrs. Edward Heiser will live on the David Warner farm, as we understand.
