Beautiful Wedding of Most Estimable
Young People.

ming at the residence Of MI. and Mrs.
Morris A. Arnold, at which time MI.
Arnold's sister, Miss Annabelle, be-
came the wife Of David H. Moss.
The appointments and decorations
of this pleasant home bore the stamp
Of elegance and exquisite taste. Groups
Of tropical plants and ferns, together
with a profusion Of smilax, delicate
pink-shaded rosesand carnations added
fragrance and color and enhanced the
artistic surroundings, while over all
fell a subdued light from the many
pink shrouded incandescents. The
parlor, where the bridal party stood,
was especially artistic. At one end
were two white Corinthian columns,
surmounted by the letters "a" and
M" formed of miniature incandes-
cent lights, entwined with smilax and
pink rosebuds. The illumination Of
the "a" disappeared just as the last
words Of the ceremony were pro-
nounced. An arch Of smilax and rose
buds connected the columns, and it
was beneath this the bridal party
stood. A bank OF ferns and palms
formed an effective background and
the dark green foliage harmonized
perfectly with the light green tapestry
OF the wall hapgings.
The same color effect was carried
out In the spacious hall and reception
room, carnations and roses being the
flowers used: but it was In the dining
room that the decorators art showed
the greatest skill. The rich mahog-
any furnishings Of the room formed
an effective setting for the delicate
pink blossoms and feathery ferns. The
polished surface Of the table was par
italy concealed by an embroidered
scarf. A graceful basket of pink
bridesmaids roses resting on a re-
lector formed a center piece and a
heart formed Of pink and white roses
was suspended by white satin ribbons
from the magnificent art glass chan
delier directly above. This also
served as a support for festoons of
|smilax enclosed in illmy pink tulle,
which terminated in love-knots at the
corners of the table. Candelabrawith
the lights Of wax candles softened by
shades Of pink, and the delicate SER
vice of cut glass and silver completed
the simple elegance Of the wedding
decorations.
