The maid of honor, Miss Jean ELL

bride, who entered leaning on the
arm of her father, The groom and
his best man coming through the
vestry room met the party at the
foot of the chancel steps, where
part of the ceremony took place.
The bride and groom then stepped
forward and knelt at the altar rail,
where the service was completed.
Meanwhile the softly modulated
strains of Halevy's Call Me Thine
own" played by Mrs. Selden, adj
ded much to the beauty of the SER
vice. The ceremony was performed
by the rector, Rev. F. II. Richey, in
Il most impressive manner. All
present feeling keenly the solem-
nifty and sacredness of the VOWS be-
ing taken.
AS the party turned to leave the
church, the march from Tannhau-
ser, swelled fourth, the little flower
girl proceeded the newly welded
pair strewing rose petals in their
path; the ribbon bearers came last
winding in their ribbons.
The party returned at once to the
home of the brides's parents, where
an informal reception was held Civ
ing the most intimate friends and rel
atives a chance to offer their con-
CALCULATIONS. The bride stood to re-
ceive, under gracefully draped
canopy of her mothers wedding veil
and flowers. She was eXquisitely
gowned in white messalene silk,
with bertha and trimmings of hand
some old lace. Her veil of tulle was
caught up with lilies of the valley,
and she wore also a small cluster of
natural orange blossoms. Her orna-
ments were pearl heirlooms in the
family.
Her boquet of white carnations was
tied with long streamers of white ma
line.
The maid of honor wore white silk
| batiste with lace trimmings, a pic
ture hat of white lace and lilacs, and
carried boquet of pink carnations
TIED with pink maline.
The bridesmaids all wore white
batiste with lace trimmings, picture
hats of white lace and roses, and car
ried as boquets beautiful clusters OF
Florida's queen flower, the magnolia
blossom, tied with white maline.
The little pillow bearers were dress
ed in white, as was also Master AL
mon Rosenberg. Miss Lucille Ken
nerly wore white batiste with lace
trimmings, and large white hat OF
lace. Little Miss Margaret Willard
presented dainty appearance in ac-
Gordon plated white silk, with poke
bonnet of white maline, and carrying
basket of roses, tied with streamers
of white naline. Mrs. Rosenberg,
mother of the bride, wore champaign
wolfe, with silk and lace trimmings.
rhe gentlemen of the party were all
CARRIED in conventional black. The
house was beautifully decorated
with evergreens and flowers, the
dining room being entirely in pink
azalias. The verandas were closed
in and made lovely with greens and
ported plants. Here the brides
attendants grouped themselves.
Mrs. Rosenberg was assisted in re-
ceivlng her guests by Mesdames
Meek, Dunn, Raines, ElwoOd, Ken
nerly, Cochrane, Haughton, Lane
and Willard. Misses Rosa Coke and
Lmogen Fearnside presided graceful
ly ut the punch bowl.
The presents received by the new
ly welded pair were both numerous
and handsome. After the reception
Il more elaborate luncheon was serv-
ed to the bridal party.
Miss Rosenberg is the only daugh-
ter of DIR. and Mrs. w. H. Rosen
berg, old citizens of Palatka, a
charming and popular girl always
with both young and old. And it is
with regret her many friends here
see her leave this, the home of her
nativity. Mr.. Vorus is a progressive
young business man of Atlanta, Ga,
of genial manner and sterling quail
tiles. Palatka feels he is to be con-
graduated on having won one of her
fairest daughters.
