MARRIED AT STORM LAKE
OLIVER J. BUEHLER AND MISS
LAURA ALFRED ARE WEDDED

Miss Laura Alfred and J. Oliver
Buehler, both of LeMars, were married
Wednesday afternoon, May 29th, at
the home of the officiating minister,
Rev. W, T. Macdonald, in Storm Lake,
Iowa. They left shortly after the
ceremony for a brief wedding trip to
eastern Iowa. Rev. Macdonald is a
former pastor of the local Methodist
Episcopal church and had officiated
at the marriage of two sisters of the
bride, several years ago.

The bride is the youngest daughter
of Mrs. Mary Alfred and was reared
in this community. She graduated
from the LeMars high school in 1914
and spent two years teaching in the
public schools. The groom is a son of
Mr. and Mrs. George Buehler, graduated
from the commercial department
of Western Union college in
1914 and since that time has farmed
the home place, 3 miles north of town,
where the young couple will be at
home after July 1st. Mr. and Mrs.
George Buehler, who have lived on
the farm with their son, since he took
charge of the place, will move soon
to LeMars and occupy the home which
they recently purchased.
