The wedding was the culmination
j of a pretty romance which had ltd
' inception during the several years of
the groom's connection with the local
radio staff. Mr. Smith left here last
spring with the intention of resign
ing from the army before his marri
age but owing to some obstacle, was
detained in the Signal Corps service
1 for another jear and was later trans
ferred to Seward. Miss Bruner, who
, is a distinctly Nome product, in the
i degree that she was born and raised
jin this city, departed on the last trip
of the Victoria to meet her future
[husband. For a year or tw'o before
! her departure. Miss Bruner was em
i ployed by the Alaska Telephone and
Telegraph Comrt-ny in the capacity
of telephone operator. Both bride

local friends with whom the Nugget
