COOKE-JUDD
WEDDING

Two of the oldest families of Homo
lulu were more closely united last
evening by the marriage of Miss Sophie
| Boyd Judd daughter of the late Chief
Justice A. Francis Judd, to Mr.. George
Paul Cooke, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles NJ Cooke the family names
dating back to the early days OF the
American missionary development of
| the Hawaiian Islands.
| The ceremony and the reception
| were a brilliant event in the social an
nails of Honolulu, the former being held
| in Central Union church at $3.50 o'clock
| in the presence of a throng of friends.
At the reception at the Judd home in
Nuuanu street there were present only
the relatives and more intimate friends
of the families.
Prettier decorations about the pulpit
and organ loft have rarely been seen
at a wedding in Central Union. The
effect of the green and white color
scheme was that of palms, ferns, male
and bamboo on the hillside of cool,
fragrant glen. At the foot of the pull
pit, where a pillow covered with
white satin cloth was placed for the
bridal couple to knee1 upon while re-
ceiving the blessing of the minister,
there was bank of small palms.
Above this rose maidenhair ferns, in
terspersed with waxy-white blossoms
of the stephanotis vine and at one side
was a deli of daisies Beyond and still
higher were larger palms and from the
midst of these rose bamboo trees, the,
tops dropping in a most natural
fashion High up in this bamboo grove
were the only two brilliant colors in
the entire decorative scheme These
