The Gable wedding was probably one
of the most brilliant affairs which Jersey
City has seen in sometime. 1t was an
event which had been long anticipated,
and although the family carefully an
nounced the wedding as strictly private
and unostentatious, still the 300 friends
who were present were compelled to con-
tradict the remark. The floral decorations
were superb and aisle of pink ribbons

Thomas, a diamond pendant-which she
wore. Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas will travel
in Canada for several weeks. EIDDA.
