MANY FRIENDS
WERE PRESENT
At Wedding of Miss Lena
KnObIaugh and Harley Mccall
INPARLORS OF CITY HOTEL
Over 100 Guests Partook of
the Wedding Supper.

Many beautiful weddings have occurred
in Wichita this season, both church and
parlor weddings, but none were larger
or more impressive that that of Miss
Lena Knoblauch and Mr. Harley Mccall
in the parlors OF the City hotel last
night. The parlors were beautifully dec
GRATED for the occasion with palms, ever
greens and roses. No special design was
followed in decorating, but the flowers
and plants were scattered in such profu-
sion over the room that it appeared
veritable flower garden.
At o'clock, to the music of Mendels-
sohn's wedding march, PLAYED by William
Needles, the bridal party entered and
marched to the center of the room. The
party was led by Rev Griffith, pastor of
the Reformed church. Next came the
bridesmaid, Miss Rilla Blackedy, and
groomsman, Mr.. Puf1off, followed by the
bride and groom. Here the simple but
impressive ceremony was performed by
Rev. Griffith.
The bride was daintily dressed in white
silk trimmed with silk lace. applique and
pearl trimming. In her hair she wore
brides roses and she carried a large
bouquet of these beautiful flowers. The
bridesmaid wore pure white organdy
dress and also carried a bouquet. The
groom and groomsman wore black.
After the ceremony the bridal party
and guests marched into the large din
ing room, where an elegant supper had
been prepared by Mrs. KOpplin. Tables
were spread for over 100 guests. The
decorations were of evergreens and |
palms. The supper was served in three |
courses. Sixty invited guests dined first, |
after which the fifty regular boarders of |
the hotel sat down TO the tables.
The reception was given at the home Of |
Fritz Schnitzler last night and was a
fitting climax TO a happy wedding. Over
100 invited persons were there to con-
graduate the bride and groom and to
participate in the pleasures of the even
