Bomar.CrawfOrd.

When heart calls to heart across the
complexity Of this modern life, and each
finds its mate answering true, then the
earth laughs in flowers, and the heavens
smile in sunshine, as they did at the
beautiful home wedding of Miss Victo-
rine Crawford to Mr.. Lucian Bomar,
which was celebrated on Wednesday,
November 16, at "Beechwood," the resi-
dence Of the brides father.
The house was tastefully decorated
with white chrysanthemums, the snowy
blossoms peeping out from every nook
and corner, seemed to be whispering
the happy secret of Cupid's triumph.
Sometime before the appointed hour,
the invited guests began to arrive, and
by 2 o'clock p. m. the spacious rooms
were comfortably filed.
When promptly at two o'clock, the
usher, Mr.. Halbert Bomar appeared at
the door, ard Mrs. Marshall Rodgers
took her seat at the piano, an expectant
hush fell over the merry guests. The
groom met the bride at the foot of the
stairway, and to the inspiring strains of
Memberships wedding march, they ad-
vauced into the parlor.
The fair young sisters of the bride and
groom. Misses Mary Crawford and Win
ME Bomar, came first, next the maids Of
honor, Misses Ada Wall, of Kentucky,
and Edith Travis, cousin of the bride.
Following these came the minister and
his lovely young wife. The bride en-
tered, leaning on the arm of the groom,
and advancing to the center of the room
they stood on mat of ferns and white
chrysanthemums directly beneath two
large hearts of the same white blossoms,
while they were joined in the holy bonds
Of wedlock by Rev. Samuel Pryor, of
the G. P. Church of Mckenzie. The
ceremony was short but impressive, and
Immediately after the prayer, the bridal
party withdrew to prepare to meet the
3 o'clock train at Paris for st. Louis.
The bride was radiant in n trailing
robe of white silk, which was love-
gift from her cousins, Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert Crawford, of Mckenzie. She
carried a bouquet of white chrysanthe-
NUNS.
The flower girls, Misses Mary Craw-
ford and Winnie Bomar, wore dresses
of white mouseline de sole, and carried
clusters of white chrysanthemums.
The maids of honor, Misses Ada Wall
and Edith Travis, were gowned in white
chiffon with sprays of white chryssnthe-
nuns.
The bride, who is the second daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Crawford, is
much beloved by large circle of rela-
tives, and great favorite in the social
life of West Tennessee.
The groom, the second son of Mr.. j.
Bomar, of Henry County, is a rising
young pharmacist, with large circle of
friends.
They received quite a number of USE
full and handsome presents, which were
arranged on tables in the hail. Besides
many from Tennessee friends and rela-
tives, there were several from distance;
the states Of Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginia, Arkansas, Kentucky and Texas
being we'll represented.
The going-away dress of the bride was
Of dark-blue silk. Accompanied by the
bridesmaids and their escorts, and amidst
shower of congratulations and good
wishes, they left at 2;30 p. H. for the
train to st. Louis.-Paris Press. Partisan
