June, when the whole world
is a,:low with natures beauti-
fi'.l folate, !'lowers, and love
v.hicli is the fonratiou ci ail
that is good and pure, when
we arc reminded that coy- Dan
Cupid is still at his cunning,
entangling' the very heart j
.strings of true, and trusting |
lovers and never forsaking his
post until the merry chitues
ot wedding bells are heard
and the tender words,"I'nto
Death Do lTs Part" are spoken.
Mr. Cook has been Sttperin-
dent at this place two terms
and by his exemplary conduct,
his attention to his school
work and his courteous and
manly bearings has won for
hun-self the respect and high
esteem of all his acquaintance.
The writter is not acquanted
with the bride, but an1 sure
that she is in every way the
ideal Mr. Cook has described.
This event marks the most
important mile-stone in their
life, is commenced under the
most favorable conditions and
circumstances. We wish for
them long life and bespeak for
them much happiness.
