Miss Irma Doster and Mr.. Don
Farnsworth were married Monday
afternoon at 4:3O o'clock at the First
PRESBYTERIAN church by DR.. S. s. Estey
Just prior to the ceremony Mr.. Oscar
Darlow played a flute solo, a selection
from Tosca, with the pipe organ ac-
compartment played by Mrs. ARA
Clark. The music was bright, there
was none of the hush and subdued
quiet, and none of the gloom that so
often mars a marriage service, making
a funeral affair of what is supposed TO
be the happiest event of two people $
lives There were about a hundred
guests in attendance, who were usher
ed by the brides brothers, Captain
Chase Doster of Fort Logan, Colo, and
Dr. Wade Doster of st. John. Kansas.
and by Mr.. w. w. Webb. The bridal
party was composed of four members.
The bridesmaid, Miss Josephine
Lynch. and the best man, Mr.. r. w.
Carper of Chicago, entered first, fol-
lowed by the bride and bridegroom.
They proceeded down the center aisle
to the front of the church without
either haste or studied elaboration,
and were met by DR.. Estey, who per-
formed the ring ceremony of the
Presbyterian church. Miss Lynch wore
a sheer white linen dress trimmed in
Irish lace, and carried a bouquet of
pink roses. He hat was white trim
med in plumes. The brides costume
was striking and handsome. The ma
terial was white broadcloth, with
yoke of Brussels lace, brought by her
mother from Belgium. The short
sleeves were finished with the lace
also. ands the lace 'in the yoke extend-i
ed in points over the shoulders. The
bodice was a draped princess, with
enough softness to break any look of
severity about the gown. The folds
were fastened at the left side with
white satin buckle. The bodice was
further trimmed in small white but
tons. The skirt was narrow and of
walking length. The hat worn with
the bridal dress was a large white
Creation" with the crown covered
with willow plumes, and the brim
faced with white velvet. The shoes
were white buckskin. The bride was
beautiful, of eourse-all brides are,
you know-but the bride of yesterday
has a distinctive type of good looks,
the sparkling kind, to which the dimp-
ling, doll-faced prettiness bears much
the same relation as moonlight unto
sunlight. and water unto wine"
The occasional for the bridal party
was Maileys March Triumphant play
ed by Mrs. Clark. The decorations of
the church were not elaborate but
pretty. The front of the church was
banked with palms, and in the center
was a large bouquet of white carna-
tionS.
Mr.. and Mrs. Farnsworth left last
evening for Kansas City. and from
there they will go to Florida and Cuba
to spend about two months. They will
make thier home in Chicago.
Those who came from out of town to
attend the wedding were: Mr.. and
Mrs. Taylor Riddle of Marion, Mr..
Karl Riddle and Mr.. Kenyon Riddle
of the State university, Mrs. Lenore
Doster Cook of Kansas City, Captain
Chase Doster of Fort Logan, Colo, and
DIR. Wade Doster of st. John. Kansas.
