Howard Row-Esther Schwab A marriage ceremony of interest to the many friends of the young couple in Hooper and its vicinity, took place at the Grace Lutheran church Friday afternoon, October 8, when at 5:30 o'clock the Rev. W. W. Alexander performed the ceremony which united the lives of Miss Esther I. Schwab and J. Howard Row, the minister using the single ring service. Attending the bride and groom were Mr. and Mrs. Marvin C. Fritz, and the guests present to witness the marriage were the members of their immediate families. The bride was attired in a street-length dress of the modish dubonnet shade and she wore a shoulder corsage of bride's rose. Mrs. Fritz was gowned in black, also wearing a shoulder corsage of roses. Following the ceremony at the church a three-course wedding dinner was served at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Schwab, residing north of Hooper, where members of the bridal party, the bride's family and her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Schwab, Mr. Rows's mother, Mrs. Ellen Row, and Miss Marian Von Rein were served by the brides's cousins, Lois and Inez Schwab and Betty Shaffer.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Row are graduates of the Hooper high school, members of the same class. Mrs. Row prepared herself for the teaching profession by attending the Wayne State Teachers college and Nebraska university and was a successful teacher in Dodge county until last spring when she resigned because of her contemplated marriage. Mr. Row also attended Nebraska university until in his senior year when he left school to take employment with a firm in St. Joseph, Mo. as a collection agent. When business conditions became adverse, Mr. Row returned to Hooper and was employed in the A. H. Harms store until he resigned to accept his present position as one of our city marshals. The newlyweds have rented the residence property of Mrs. Lucy Hite on the hill and had this home completely furnished for occupancy prior to their marriage. It is here that they will be at home to the many fiends who will wish for them every happiness in their wedded life.
