inas Till Return

When DR.. Hiram B. Tebbetts, as
sistant health officer of Los Angeles
left the city hall Friday night with
grip and a Sunny jim smile his as
sociates expected that he was goins
fishing.
Instead he took a bride.
With only three persons I'm the
secret" the doctors mother. the pride
sister and her husband, the affair saw
ored much of the mysterious and ro-
mantle.
The bride was Miss Louise Bogart
Her father, DIR. Simon |. Bogart the
we'll known dentist in the Union Trust
building, had not recovered from the
surprise last night and when asked
about it said Internationally:
go and see my daughter. she alone
knows about it,"
The ceremony was solemnized In the
presence of only two persons at noon
yesterday in Christ Episcopal church
These were Mr. and Mrs. Ross San
derson. who less than a year ago mac
set IA nuptial example for Mrs. Tebbettsi
who is Mrs. Sanderson's sister.
Leave Friends Surprised
The happy Angelenos are now on
their way to San Francisco via Santa
Barbara, while their friends are Won
dering why they were so uncbservant
as not to detect the romance unfolding
before their eyes.
Years ago DR.. Tebbetts and his wife
went to the Los Angeles high school
together. They met again in classes
at the University Of Southern Califor-
mia. They were good friends and NO
more. their associates thought, and the
latter devoted no scrutinizing glances
to them.
Some weeks ago DIR. Tebbetts. who
was an office associate Of DR.. Harris
Garcelon, was made assistant health
officer to DIR. L. M. Powers. DR.. Gar
celon had only recently married Miss
Smith and left the department to be-
come one of the staff surgeons OF the
Southern Pacific system.
Both physicians shouldered a heavy
burden of work in taking the depart
ment appointment, and no one thought
they could find time for sentiment.
But they did.
Only One Confidante
Mrs. Tebbetts, the bride, some weeks
ago moved from the home of DR.. and
Mrs. Bogart. her parents. at 1920 West
lake avenue, to Sanderson's cozy flat
at GA Bonnie Brae street. Mrs. San
derson was her only confidante.
A week ego DR.. Tebbetts asked DR..
Powers for a two weeks leave of abb

way, consented and chuckled. He sus-
pected the truth.
Not word was said to either family.
Promptly yesterday morning DR.. j. II:
Tebbetts, brother. who had received
his diploma from a medical college this
week. reported at the health office to
take up his brothers work temporarily.
He too, supposed his brother had mere
ly gone away on a vacation trip. 1t
was his turn to be surprised last night.
Rev Baker P. Lee performed the
ceremony in the church. AS the Epis-
copal form provides for two witnesses,
Mr.. and Mrs. Sanderson were on hand.
The bride was an attendant, though
not q member: of Christ church.
Then they slipped northward on the
first train out of Los Angeles. leaving
the Sandersons to break the news.
Both DR.. Tebbetts and my sister
in-law are inclined to be opposed to
much fuss and feathers over we'd
ding" said Mr.. Sanderson last night.
He seemed satisfied with having done
q good turn for his brother-in-law.
y DR.. Tebbetts comes of an old Illinois
family. The mother and the boys re-
side at 1907 South Grand avenue.
Mrs. Tebbetts, the bride, passed most
Of her life in Los Angeles. but was for
a few years in Tucson, AriZ.
On their return. ten days hence, DR..
and Mrs. Tebbetts will be at home at
3007 Leeward avenue.
