The Absent Minded Educator
There have been a good many gags
told on the absentmindedness of the
typical school professor or teacher,

our attention a case where such ab
sent mindedness nearly wrecked a
wedding, of which members of the
teaching force in the schools of an
eastern Nebraska town were partici
pants. Everything had been arrang
ed for the wedding of these two edu
cators (no names mentioned) follow
lowing the close of the school year.
They had even prepared a home in
readiness to return to, going to Lin
coln for the wedding, which was
scheduled for last Saturday night.
On arrival in the capital city, it
was discovered the bride-to-be had
forgotten her wedding garments, es
pecially the beautiful and costly wed
ding .gown that was to adorn her as
the ceremony was being performed.
Not thinking of it until some two
hours before the time set for the
'wedding, the belated discovery caus-J

Phone 29 Union, Nebraska
ed much consternation and worry.
The telephone was invoked and a
long distance call sent to have the
garments picked up and brought in
to Lincoln. To further complicate
matters, at the other end of the line,
the keys could not be found to get
into the domicile, which had been
securely locked to guard against in
truders. After much scurrying
around, keys were secured from a
hardware store, the house opened and
the missing garments secured. Then
came a fast automobile dash to the
capital city to deliver the dress, with
arrival there just in the niche of
time, as the hour for the ceremony
was rapidly drawing near.
Never did a bride-to-be make so
rapid a lightning change in attire
as this one, appearing just a minute
before the wedding march was to
begin. While it was a close call, all
went well and the wedding came off
on scheduled time.
Spoke at Memorial Services.
Rev. and Mrs. W. A. Taylor and
Mrs. Lena Hoback were over to the
