Guided.
At the chancel, the bride was met by
her future husband, who was supported
bv his best man, Mr. Charles Rice of
Kauai Assisting DIR. Scudder was Rev.
John ?. Erdman. The ceremony was
performed by Doctor Scudder, Mr..
Damon giving his daughter away. Rev.
Mr. Erdman offered prayer and DR..
Scudder the benedictiOn.
1t was a short, simple ceremony, and
then to the gay strains of the wedding
march from Tannhauser the bride and
groom passed out Of the church by the
central aisle, followed by the maid of
honor, bridesmaids and ushers. The
bridal party and intimate friends
motored at once to Moanalua where a
reception was held.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Damon, both of whom
descend from famous families. The
bride s grandfather was Rev. Samuel
Damon, who was known to sailors from
all the Four Seas as Father Damon,
pastor of the Seaman's Bethel of Ho-
nolulu. The wife of Father Damon
was the daughter of Samuel Mills of
" Haystack Meeting fame, one of the
five young men who met and decided
that they should go out into the world
to advance the cause of Christianity
among heather people. The bride s
mother is the daughter of the late Rev.
Mr.. Happier, one of the early and we'll
known American missionaries to China.
Mr.. and Mrs. Damon spent much time
in China and it was due to their re-
ligious association with the Chinese
that the decorations were given an ORR
entail tone
Doctor Putnam, the groom, is we'll
known resident of the Island of Kauai,
a rising young practising physician,
who is also a member of the Hawaiian
Territorial Medical Association.
The guests included representatives
of all the old families of Honolulu,
associated with the religious
growth of the Islands from the year
of the landing of the first American

scented by Mrs. Frear, wife of the alb
sent governor, Acting Governor and
Mrs. Mott-Smith, and Judge and Mrs.

Damon-P utnam
Wedding
- - ~, .Sk. .Sk.AkSk

In the midst of garden setting Of
palms and white flowers, with quaint
oriental touch to the scene, Miss Vio-
let Damon and DR.. Frank Lawrence
Putnam were married last evening at
eight o'clock IN Central Union church,
Rev. DR.. Doremus Scudder, the pastor,
officiating. The pretty ceremony was
witnessed BY friends who occupied the
entire auditorium, for the bride comes
of family whose lives have been
linked with the development of the
Hawaiian Islands from their earliest
DAVIS of civilization.
Seldom has a ceremony been so
beautifully aided by the touch Of dec
orative originality, The altar section
was a modified Chinese and japanese
garden scene, where palms and ferns
banked upon the platform steps and
to the choir rail gave an effect of a
cool mountain glen. At opposite ends
of the rail were two floral lanterns of
white asters, fragrant replicas Of the
quaint stone lanterns seen in oriental
gardens, in each a candle burning. The
two side aisles, where they opened into
the space Immediately before the plat
form, were guarded by beautiful Jap
anese tori gates worked out with
flowers and vines. The posts and low
err crosspieces were formed of white
cbrvsanthemums and white asters, the
top part of male. Swinging gates of
giided bamboo, covered with a fret
e va
usually picturesque effect. The aisles
were also fanked with pillars wound
with MALE and topped with ferns and
the feathery plumes of sugar cane,
satin ribbons combining the pillars to
the pews.
When the Mendelssohn wedding
march was played, quartet of chill
dren, two boys and two girls, walked
down the main aisle, and, separating
before the chancel, went two by two
to the tori gates. Following came a
bevy of beautiful bridesmaids, two by
two. who marched slowly and in state
" manner down the Waikiki aisle. As
they neared the floral gates they swung
inward and the bridesmaids passed
into the garden, forming a lane through
which the dainty maids of honor, Miss
Vera Damon, sister of the bride, and
Miss Beatrice Castle, passed. The
bridesmaids and maids of honor formed
an extremely pretty group of dainty
maidenhood, each gowned in nile gcen
liberty satin gown, en- traine, with sill
yer trimmings. The maids of honor
carried bouquets of purple and white
violets
The bridesmaids were Miss Alice
Hedemann, Miss Nora Sturgeon, Miss
Elsa Sehaefer. Miss Alice Roth, Miss
Perrin; and the ushers were Messrs.
Harold Castle, Doctor Hedemann, j.
MeKinnon, Sherwood Lowrey, George
Brown.
The bride entered the church leaning
upon the arm of her father, Frank w.
Damon. She was remarkably self
possessed as she passed through the
lane of MALE pillars, and was very
beautiful in her gown of white satin

Opposed All Education.

The Abecedarfans were the followers
of one Nikolaus Storch, clothmaker
of Wittenberg, who flourished in 1922
He proclaimed fanatical views that
are commonly called Anabaptist, and
soon gathered a considerable follow
ing.
The foundation of their faith was
that it was best not to know how to
read since the Holy Spirit would con-
vey knowledge of the Scriptures direct
" to the understanding. They con-
tended, therefore, that as education
might be hindrance to salvation it
must be avoided as a pest. They en-
couraged pupils to desert the schools
and universities and take up humble
trades.

berry Lord Rosebery complained to
the bishop of want of sleep, to which
the bishop replied that he never suf-
fered from insomnia. The earl OBJ
served that he wished he knew the
remedy. The bishops formula was
very simple. If he felt drowsy he
started to write a sermon ard in a
few moments he was wide awake. On
the other hand if he wanted to sleep
all he had to do was to start to read
a sermon. Then sleep cane in a few

it was his practice to choose the less

Causes of Blindness.

The dangers to which the modern eye
is exposed fall into two great classes
disease and overuse from near work.
Here another great consoling fact faces
us, and that is that while overwork
and consequent eye strain are by far
the commonest troubles that befall the
modern eye, discomfort and ineficiency
are as far as they go in SO cases out
of 100. 1t is a fact that 80 $40 per
