    • 1937 'NORSEMAN NOTES.'

      The wedding was solemnized on Saturday evening, at the Methodist Church, between Herbert James, second son of Mr. and Mrs. Sharpe, of Norseman, and Alma Florence, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Butcher, of Shenton Park.

      The comissioner, Mr. W. H. Price, performed the ceremony. The bride was given away by Mr. G. Black, owing to the unavoidable absence of her father, and daintily attired in an ensemble of dusky pink French cloque, with a pretty blouse of beige lace and accessories to match. A sheaf of old gold roses and fern completed her toilette.

      The sister of the bride, Miss M. Butcher, acted as bridesmaid and wore a frock of marina green, hand paint ed crepe de chine, prettily finished with spotted net collar and cuffs.

      The duties of best man were carried out by Mr. A. Purkiss. Mrs. R. Wower and Miss P. Sharpe, sisters of the bridegroom, received the guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sharpe, where the usual toasts were honored.

      Later the guests proceeded to the Roads Board Hall where a pleasant evening of dancing was enjoyed. The music for the evening was ably supplied by Mr. Bob Nelthorpe.
