DUTCH WEDDING WAYS
DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS
Strange Old Customs That Do Not Lose Interest.
Different Proceedings to Secure
Wife in Foreign Countries.

taken place before the civil authorl-
ties at the town hall, and no clergy
man or priest may consecrate mar
riage that has not been thus carried
out. The religious ceremony is
therefore looked upon more as
benediction of the union than an ac-
tual joining together in matrimony.
The town hall ceremony is very
brief and "cold" and there are many
brides who would not consider them
selves properly married without the
marriage service in church. The
Roman Catholic services are, of
course, very much the same all over
the world, but the Dutch Protestant
service differs considerably from the
English services. In front of the pull
pit a semi-circle of chairs is arranged
for the bridal party. Exactly oppo-
site the officiating clergyman two easy
chairs are placed for the bride and
bridegroom. These, already legally
husband and wife, drive to church,
together, and enter the church to-
gether, followed by the bridesmaids.
Then come the parents and the 9TH
er relatives. There is no "best man
at Dutch wedding; and no waiting
by either bride or groom for one an
other for the bridegroom on the we'd
ding morning goes at once to the
brides house and drives in the same
carriage with her to the town hall.
Another popularity of Dutch
wedding is that both bride and BRIDE
groom are given ring, which the
clergyman places on their fingers.
The clergyman generally presents the
young couple with a Bible after the
services is over, and to the strains
of wedding march all the party pro-
ceed to the vestry to sign their names
in the register and to receive the con-
gratulations of all those present in
church.
After this is over the party drives
home to the brides house, where the
wedding breakfast is served, at which
only the closest relatives and the
dearest friends of bride and BRIDE
groom are present. Many "toasts'
are given and speeches made wishing
the newly married couple good luck,
and kilograms from absent friends
are read aloud. When the breakfast
is we'll on it's way the young couple
quietly leave the table, followed by
the brides mother, who helps her to
exchange her bridal robes for a trav-
elling dress. The bridegroom, too,
lays aside his evening dress and puts
on a travelling suit. Then their car
riage is announced to take them to
the train and they drive away quiet
ly, while the wedding guests con-
tinue to make merry at the banquet.

LIKED The FAMILY.
Girl Tilted Il Youth; He Married her
Mother.

st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. 2S.-Clarence
C. A. Voss, twenty years old, of No.
56O5 North Market street, consoled
himself, when his boyhood sweet
heart, Miss Myrtle Schultz, nineteen
years old, of No. 1855 Evans avenue,
Tilted him, by marrying her mother,
thirty-fve years old, divorcee who
goes under her maiden name, Mar
garet Reeder. Miss Myrtle and the
successor to Vose in her affections,
Frank A. Bids, stood up with the
bridal pair at the ceremony.
The facts of this curious marriage
developed Wednesday after the bride
groom's father, A. F. Voss, manager
of the Washington Hotel cafe, called
at the office of the recorder of deeds
in Clayton. On account of the dis
parity in the ages of his son and
daughter-in-law the elder Voss an
nounced he would take steps at once
to have the marriage annulled.
When a reporter called at the
Evans avenue home Mrs. Voss, Jr.,
and her daughter, tall blonde, who
looks as old as her stepfather, told
the story of the romance.
Mrs. Voss admitted at once that
she had understated her age ten
years when applying for the mar
riage license and that her husband
also had overstated his. She said
she gave her age as twenty-five so
the disparity would not be too no
ticeable.
She said she first got acquainted
with Voss more than two and half
years ago. She had tailor shop at
No. 5625 ,Easton avenue she said,
when Voss began coming there to
call upon Myrtle. The two appear
ed to care for each other, but there
was quarrel.
Instead of discontinuing his visits
she said, Voss kept coming to the
house. But he talked to the mother
instead of to the daughter. When he
first declared his love Mrs. Voss said
she told him she was much older than
he and a marriage was not to be
thought of.
Recently she went automobile rid
ing with Voss and he again propos-
ed marriage to her. when I again
told him the difference in our ages
was too great" she said, "he told me
that 1 would have to promise to mar
ry him or neither of us would leave
the auto alive. From this I saw
he was honest and sincere in his
wish to be married, and consented.
I wanted him to wait until Novem-
Der, when he would be of age, but
he was too impatient to wait. SO we
went to Clayton and were married.
If his father brings suit to annul it
I shall certainly fight the suit
AS the mother talked the daughter
helped her out in the recital. She
said she was glad Voss had married
her mother AS for herself, Miss
Myrtle said Voss was ''too bossy"
to suit her. Does he try to boss
you as step-father?" was asked.
Sometimes" she replied with
laugh.
After the ceremony reporters met
the party in the Office of Justice of
the Peace Werremeyer and asked
them if they would make a statement
about their marriage.
Voss made no reply. His bride an
swered: Il should say not" and the
party walked to their automobile and
drove away.
The father declared the first he
knew of the wedding was when he
read the name of his son in the mar
riage license notices. He never has
seen the daughter-in-law, but spent
some time making inquiries. He de-
clared the boy was too young to
marry.

What He Didn't Like.

A horse dealer was trying to sell
a horse afflicted with heaves, and said

he a fine coat? Isn't it dandy?"
''His coats all right, but 1 dom t
