Larson – Fadner
Union Grove, Wis., March 5. — A pretty house wedding occurred on Thursday, March 4, at 4 o’clock p.m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig Larson, when their daughter, Evelyn, became the bride of Glenn R. Fadner of Milwaukee. The ceremony was performed under a white wedding bell which hung from a canopy of daffodils and greens, the Rev. Frank Dexter officiating. There were no attendants. The bride’s gown was of white brocaded georgette and satin black Canton and she carried a bouquet of bridal roses and sweetpeas.
Following the ceremony, a wedding dinner was served to the guests, all of whom were near relatives, and included the following: Mr. and Mrs. M.B. Fadner, Robert and Thelma Fadner, Lawrence Lepine, Fond du Lac; Mr. and Mrs. H. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Fadner, Miss Marcia Fadner, Mr. and Mrs. Frank La Budde, all of Milwaukee; Mr. and Mrs. Louis P. Monk, Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Linton, Mrs. F. Hjorth, Racine. The bride and groom left the same evening for a short honeymoon trip, and will be at home April 1 at 614 Wilson street, Milwaukee.
Mrs. Fadner is one of Union Grove’s well known and much esteemed young women, popular among the younger crowd, and prominent in the Baptist church, of which she was organist for some time. She is a graduate of the local high school and followed that with a year at business college in Racine. For some time she was employed as bookkeeper at the Service garage.
The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. M.R. Fadner of Fond du Lac, and is with the Mennel Construction company at Milwaukee.
An interesting detail of the event was the fact that it was the thirty-ninth wedding anniversary of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig Larson.

Baptist Ladies’ Aid Holds 50th Anniversary Celebration at Grove.
(By Staff Correspondent.)
Union Grove, Wis. — In spite of poor weather, the Baptist church was filled to the doors Saturday evening, on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the Ladies’ Aid society. Former members were there from Racine and other places, there was a delegation present from the Raymond church and from other churches of Union Grove, and good cheer and friendship mingled with the reminiscent spirit of the evening to make it a happy occasion.
The Junior Ladies’ Aid society was the entertaining group, and the members proved to be splendid hostesses, providing a fine program and a delicious lunch.
The most honored among the guests of honor was Mrs. James Anderson at Racine, the one remaining charter member able to be present.

The Program.
The following program was presented, with Mrs. George Hardie presiding as president of the Junior society: Piano music — Miss Grace Larson, who was accompanist for the evening; hymn — choir and congregation; welcome — Mrs. George Hardie; response — Mrs. John Larson; hymn, Blest Be the Tie That Binds — Junior Aid society; scripture and prayer — Mrs. C.H. Wilcox; Senior society report — Mrs. Louis Larsen; paper — Mrs. James Anderson; Junior society report — Mrs. Howard Peterson; music — Girls’ chorus; music, clarinet, violin, piano — Alice and Myrtle Hansen and Grace Larson; solo — Mrs. Ernest Erickson; talk — Pastor C.H. Wilcox; duet — Mrs. Eleanor Larson Linton and Grace Larson, accompanying with guitar and piano; violin duet — Christine Horner and Myrtle Hansen, with Alice Hansen at piano; vocal duet — Mrs. E. Erickson and Mrs. H. Peterson; vocal duet — Alice and Myrtle Hansen; hymn and prayer.

Congratulations Seniors.
In Mrs. Hardie’s address, she welcomed the members of the Senior society, and congratulated them upon their long period of organization and service and upon reaching the fiftieth milestone. She hoped that the Junior Ladies’ Aid, at this time celebrating its third anniversary, would be able to make as good a record in the years to come, and that they might have many more happy times together.
Mrs. John Larson, president of the Seniors, made a pleasing response, telling of their pleasure in being there and of their appreciation for the Juniors’ entertainment.

Service and Sacrifice.
The report of Mrs. Louis Larsen showed the sacrifices that have attended the long period of service. In January, 1879, the organization took place, with a few sisters as members, who wished to help in the support of the church and also the mission field. Each member pledged 10 cents a month, and took home sewing and knitting to be sold among friends. For a few years there was a large emigration to Union Grove from Denmark (about 35 families), which gave a good chance to sell the work. After 13 years a large number of the then young girls joined the society. Clothes were made to send to Africa to missionaries there, and the society held several bazaars and made good each time.
After about 10 years the younger members left, some marrying, some going to the cities, leaving just a few to carry on. The sewing was given up by not the devotional meetings. Once a month this little group of eight women meets, and there is always a good offering.

Society’s Presidents.
Mrs. Peter Jasperson was the first president, serving until 1887 and again in 1903, after Mrs. H. Ibsen was obliged to resign. Mrs. Jasperson held the office until her death in April, 1910, and was succeeded by Mrs. Peter Larson, who gave faithful service for eight years. Then Mrs. Engelbret Hansen held the office for two years, until the family moved to Racine. Mrs. John Larson is the fifth and the present leader, elected in 1920.
Some of the outstanding achievements mentioned were the amount of $3,373 raised during the 50 years. The missionary offerings have amounted to $1,636; $181 was given to the Danish convention for a missionary in Montana; $1,556 went to the upkeep of the church and parsonage; flood sufferers, hunger sufferers, sick and poor in this and foreign countries have been helped.

In a Reminiscent Vein.
The paper of Mrs. J. Anderson, charger member, was along a reminiscent line and very pleasing. She gave the names of the original group: Mrs. P. Jasperson, president; Mrs. J. Rasmussen, secretary; Mmes. P. Larson, J. Olson, C. Hansen, Peterson, P. Simpson and J.P. Anderson. After a couple of years an older group joined them: Mmes. Henry Jacobson, E. Winter, H. Hensen and H. Johnson. They knitted socks at 25 cents per pair, while the others sewed and made overalls at 20 cents a pair for a Racine store, and all were happy in their work.
Mrs. H. Peterson reported on the progress of the Junior Aid, just three years old and having nine members. They have accomplished good things and expect to carry on the work begun so long ago by the honored guests of the evening.
Officers of the Junior Aid include Mrs. G. Hardie, president; Mrs. J. Gabrielson, vie-president, and Mrs. Howard Peterson, secretary-treasurer.

Lunch and Social Hour.
Following the program, there was a social time during which the Juniors served a splendid lunch.
Among former members from away who were present were Mrs. J. Anderson, Mrs. Engelbret Hanson and children, Mr. and Mrs. P. Paulsen, Mrs. J.P. Nelson, Mrs. A.B. Hanson, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Olson, all of Racine; Mr. and Mrs. Glen Fadner, West Allis; Mrs. Mabel Larsen Bulles, Cleveland, and many from around the county.

Probe Reveals Crash Details
Auto Hit While Turning Into Driveway Near Union Grove.
Investigation by Coroner E.B. Yanny and members of the sheriff’s department of an accident in which Mrs. Larson, wife of Louis Larson, also known as Ludwig Larson, was killed yesterday afternoon near Union Grove, revealed that the auto in which they were riding was being driven into the driveway leading to the farm of James Larson on Highway 11.
Another car operated by Arthur Dibble, of Antioch, Ill., following the Larson car struck the Union Grove man’s auto, causing it to topple over onto its side. In the crash, the door of the auto opened and Mrs. Larson was thrown out, and pinned beneath the car.
A third auto, preceding the Larson car, had turned into the James Larson driveway and its driver witnessed the accident. Mrs. Larson was the only person to suffer injuries. Some damage resulted to both cars.

Returning From Wife’s Funeral.
Mr. Dibble was returning from a northern city where his wife had been buried. He was bringing an aunt, Mrs. Rathe, of Manitowoc to Racine.
Accompanying Mr. Larson, besides his wife were Mrs. Elner Erickson and Mrs. Harry Erickson.
Deputy sheriffs were called at 6:40 last night to Highway 41 a mile south of Highway 20 where deputies found that a truck with semi-trailer driven by S. Tweeth, 426 Madison street, Eau Claire, Wis., and an auto operated by G.M. Smith, Route 2, Box 169, Racine, had collided.
Mr. Smith was driving east on a gravel road at the time of the collision. Riding in the Smith car were Mrs. Peter Soloniski and her four children who live on the Smith farm. One of the daughters suffered leg and head bruises and the others sustained bruises.

Funeral Friday.
Mrs. Larson, who was one of the oldest members of the Baptist church in Union Grove, is survived by her husband; two sons, Arnold, Desplaines, Ill., and Lawrence, San Antonio, Tex.; six daughters, Mrs. Al James, Pensacola, Fla., Mrs. Frank LaBudde, Milwaukee, Mrs. Glen Fadner, Mrs. L.P.

Mrs. Larsen came to the Raymond community in her eighteenth year. At Christmas time in 1884 she yielded her heart to the Lord Jesus and shortly thereafter united with the Union Grove Baptist Church upon her confession of faith.
