Arizona republican., 1912-07-21

Of national social interest was the wedding of Miss Jennie CrOcker, the weaIthiest heiress in California. and Malcolm D. Whitman of New York, which took place in san Mateo. Tues day. Possibly what has made the greatest impression on society at Iarge is the fact that the pageant of this fashionable wedding was record ed on a moving picture film.
 The function was quite the most elaborate that has ever taken place in the west. and that it's magnifi- cence may not be lost to future gen. erations of the Crocker family its details were registered by moving picture machine.
 fund of entertainment will s~ afforded the favored audience that will be invited to a private view of the pictures when they are first shown. and then the films will be put away carefully with the family plate to be brought out only on rare occasions during the lifetime of the bride and bridegroom.
 Considered in the light of a treas ured inheritance a moving picture film of the wedding festivities will be of infinitely greater interest to some member of the family fifty years from now than will be the wonderful jewels that have been showered upon the bride on the oc- casion of her marriage.
 The guests at the wedding will be given an opportunity to see just how they acted and how they really look ed from the moment they stepped from their limousines at the door of St Mathews church to witness the ceremony. to the time of their de- parture at the close of the reception at Uplands.
 A comprehensive view of the scene, which. is always impossible if one is part of a pageant, will be afforded the guests. and the bride and bride groom, who never do know what is really happening at their wedding, will be able to enjoy the magnifi- cence of it when they sit in the au- dience and view it as if it were the marriage of some one else.
 The wedding was one as worthy of record in the world of society as was the Durbar ceremony in the annals of international activities.
 The wedding of California heiress in the year 1912, with its de- tails faithfully recorded. would cer- tainly appeal to those engaged in antiquarian research in future cen turies
 The question arises whether society assembled at the Crocker wedding possessed sufficient boise to be truly itself with the consciousness that the relentless eye of the camera was on its every movement.
 However, as a mere pageant it will be a beautiful picture.
 St Mathews church. where the ceremony was performed, is erected on the side of the first Episcopal church built on the peninsula. the donor of which was the late William Howard, and until the catastrophe ot 1906 was one of the show places oi the country. It has been the scene of number of notable weddings.
 Besides the exquisite color scheme of the church decorations that were recorded by the machine, the other details shown will be the wonderful wedding gown of the bride. whicf her aunt, Mrs. Charles Alexander brought with her from Paris anC which is said to be as costly anC beautiful as the one worn by Vivier Gould when she became the bride of Lord Decies
 One of the prettiest weddings ot summer took place at six-thirt, o'clock Wednesday morning. wher Miss Besse Chapman, daughter ot MT. and Mrs. Charles Lambertz. be. came the bride of Harold Golze. Un. usually lovely was the decorativ, scheme of pink and green that 1T roses and greenery transformed tn, LambertZ residence on North FourtI avenue into a veritable conservatory Across the west corner of the livins room a festooning of pepper boughs showered in roses, formed the bacl ground for the bridal party. Grea clusters of the delicately tinted rose fell at either side, reaching to tn vases of roses that stood at tn, base of this effective bower Every where were jardinieres of flower and lights shaded in pink complete, the artistic arrangement
 The bride, who is an exceedingl, pretty girl, looked her loveliest il her dainty bridal costume of whit messaline. The skirt, which wa
