      PROF. HELM TO WED

      Well known Muncie Instructor Soon to be Married

      The secret leaked out today of the approaching wedding or Prof. Mark Powers Helm, one of the most prominent instructors in the Muncie High school to Miss May Hamilton, a well known young woman of Augusta, Ky. The wedding will take place Wednesday, June 27, at the home of the bride's parents in Augusta. Invitations will be issued tomorrow. Several Muncie people are expected to attend the wedding.

      For the past year Mr. Helm has been instructor in the department of science in the local High school and is popular socially in Muncie where he has lived for several years. He was formerly instructor in the common schools of this city. It was Mr. Helm's intention to keep the marriage quiet except among his most intimate friends. He recently returned from Augusta to Muncie and after a few days' visit will return to remain until after the wedding. Mr. Helm and bride will then come to Muncie to reside.

      Miss Hamilton is the daughter of one ofo the most prominent and well-to-do families in Augusta. Augusta is situated on the Ohio river near Cincinnati. Miss Hamilton has many acquaintances in Muncie and will be welcomed as a resident. The announcement of the wedding is a surprise to the friends of both the bride and groom.
