spoke the spending of money in unlim-

riages of continental Europe rather
than of the marriage of an American
girl. 1t took place in the great ball
room on the main floor. facing Fifth
avenue in its length, and the great rec

bridal party and the guests, was like
a glittering picture out of fairyland.

blessing in person on the young couple
at the Vatican. The benediction was
sen by cable to Archbishop Farley
and transmitted through Mgr. La
