Saturday evening several hundred young folks assembled bearing noisemakers, 
ranging from trumpets to tin pans and proceeded to give the bride and groom a 
good serenading.  After they were generously treated and had dispersed, a group 
of fellow business men and neighbors, some one hundred strong, came with the 
big truck belonging to George Deets, and took the couple for a tour of the town 
and showered them with old shoes and rice. The serenade lasted until near 
midnight.
Tuesday evening about twenty five ladies assembled at the Methodist Protestant
