by the young people of the First Chris

The church was handsomely deco
rated by the Chinese merchants in the
city and was in true Japanese stvle.
The stage was decorated to represent
a Darlor in a Japanese home.
The ceremony began by the appear
ance of the go-between or mistress of
ceremonies, Miss Laura Baysinger She
was followed by the parents of the
contracting parties, who were seated
by the go-between on opposite sides of
the stage. They were followed by the
bridal party composed of bride and
groom and bridesmaids The bride
was then seated at the side of the
groOm's parents which signified their
willingness to receive her into the fam
lily. The go-between next presented
the bride and groom with cups of tea
and also the bridal party, after which
the go-between received the VOW from
the groom and next whispered it to the
bride. This completed a marriage in
high life in Japan. 1t was followed by
the presenting of presents to the happy
couple.
During the ceremony no word was
spoken, the whole affair being car
ried on by signs in true Japanese
fashion. Miss Coffield gave a history

its conclusion the ladies of the church
served delicious refreshments.
