The wedding was quite the social

ferns were draped from the ceiling. In
the corners stately palms completed the
decorations. The dining room was
done in green and white, the decora-
tons being largely of ferns and smi-
lax, among which were interviewer a
countless number of white brides
roses. The decorations of the east
par1or were sweet peas and the prevail
ing green.
The ceremony was performed at
2:3O O'Clock the Rev. ]. L. Hewitt, u.
D., of the Congregational church, per-
forming the ceremony. The fulI
Episcopal ceremony was used and an
impressive prayer added to the beauty
Of the whole.
The bride entered the parlor on the
arm of her father, who gave her away.
She was attired in a magnificent Gre
alton of white chiffon and lace with an
ACCORDION plated skirt made en- train.
The waist was of chiffon and lace
with decorations of orange blossoms.
