those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. 1t
Is known that these included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal friends of
the bride and groom and OF their fam
lilies and by admirers Of President
Wilson. Handsome presents were
sent by both the senate and the house,
that of the latter being diamond le.-
valliere which Miss Genevieve Clark,
daughter Of the speaker, bought for
the representatives in New York.
Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal
friends and the number was kept down
close to four hundred. The list was
pared and revised several times, and
as has been said, the operation result
ed in many heartburnings From the
house of representatives circle, for
instance, the only guests were Speaker
Champ Clark, Mrs. Clark and Miss
Genevieve Clark, Mariory Leader I'm
derwood and Mrs. Underwood, and
Minority Leader Mann and Mrs. Mann.
AS might be expected, the streets
outside the White House were as
crowded as the police would permit
with curious persons eager to watch
the arrival and departure of the guests

The first layer was four inches thick
