C0bb.Ar

A pretty wedding was cele
brated at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. F. Ard
t'reeland, La, on Wednesday
June Goth, at high noon, wher
Mr.. Spaulding G. Cobb and Miss
Rubie Ard were married in the
presence of a large number OF
friends and relatives.
The pretty home was decorat
ed with ferns, palms and various
house plants which had been
effectively arranged for the occa.
sion by artistic hands. At one
end of the parlor an arch of ever
greens was arranged from which
were suspended the letters A and
Z made of white roses. Here
the couple stood during the cere-
mony which was impressively
performed by Rev. E. L. Cargill.
At the appointed hour the
bridal party descended the stairs
and entered the parlor to the slow
strains of Memberships we'd
ding maGch, exquisitely rendered
by Miss A. M. G. Pearce of Jack
son. They were preceded by
Mr.. Evans Cobb, brother of the
groom, and Miss Mamie Daniel,
a cousin of the bride. The bride
looked lovely in her dainty bridal
robe Of grandmother's swiss
elaborated with val lace. She
carried a shower bouquet of bride
roses and asparagus ferns, tied
with white satin ribbon. The
maid of honor, Miss Mamie
Daniel, was becomingly goWned
in white organdie and carried a
shower bouquet of ferns and
pink geraniums tied with pink
ribbon.
After the ceremony the bride
and groom led the way to the din
ing room which was effectively
decorated, a pink and green
scheme being carried out. A
large bell of pink roses was sus-
pended over the table from which
streamers of wide pink ribbon
were Topped to the four corners
of the table. Napkins bearing
the monogram ofbride and groom
we're used. Three little girls
with pink aprons, served dainty
refreshments. Repairing to the
large hall, the wedding cake was
cut and the ring drawn by Mr..
Bruce West.
Immediately afterwards the
bride and groom left for a honey
moon visit to the groom's home
in Kentucky, amid a shower of
rice and good wishes from the
large number of friends who had
assembled in the halls and on the
galleries to see them off. A jolly
crowd of girls saw that the bag
gage was appropriately tied with
old shoes and ribbons. The
bride wore a travelling gown of
tan voile with hat, etc. to match.
The guests from a distance
were: Mr.. and Mrs. R. H. War
rem, of Covington: Mrs. Keller,
Miss Pearce, DR.. McKowen, wife
and daughter, of Jackson; Mr..
K. G. Smith, Mr.. and Mrs. A. w.
Ard, Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Hamil
ton, and Rev. Mr.. Cargill and
wife, of St. F'rancisville.
The bride and groom were the
recipients Of many useful and
beautiful presents which show
the high esteem in which the
young couple is held by all. They
will be at home at Live Oak plan
tation after July 10th.
