The one topic of conservation in
town today, as for the past few weeks.
is of course the Millspaugh-Dewey
wedding which takes place at half at
ter seven o'clock tonight at Grace
cathedral Tomorrow II will all be
over and we will have to find some
thing new to talk about, but it will
probably be many a day before we
have an engagement and wedding OF
as much interest to as many people as
this one Mr. Dewey's dinner at the
Topeka club Saturday night for his
f1ancee and the members of their
bridal party, eclipsed any entertain
ment of the kind that has ever been
given in Topeka. The decorations
and menu were elaborate, the com
pany was made up of beautiful young
women and distinguished looking
men and every detail was perfect in
conception and execution. The ladies'
dining room and reception room at
the Topeka club were lavishly deco
rated, ten dozen-G0--ount them
100 American Beauty roses being used
on the table and throughout the two
rooms and these were afterwards
divided among the women guests.
Mr.. Raymond Halls orchestra played
during the dinner. Afterwards the
party went to Hudson's for an in
formal dance.
Miss Millspaugh wore a charming
gown of pale pink chiffon over taffeta
of a deeper pink. Miss Nellie Mills

over white taffeta. Miss Helen Davis
of Omaha, cousin of the bride, was

pink silk. Miss Eva Smith wore pink
taffeta and Miss Isabel Smith white

Miss Gala Cutte1 was in pink

and all the brunettes in pink and the
effect was charming and especially
pleasing to Miss Millspaugh who has
chosen these colors for ner wedding.

tertainment beside Mr.. Dewey's din
ner was the luncheon az the Country
club today at which Mrs. Charles
Brooks Thomas, the brides sister,
