An Approaching Tampa Wedding of
Interest
The following extra from the Tri-
bune will interest many of our read
ers. The bride-elect is a member of
one of Sumter county's oldest and
largest families and has relatives and
friends in Ocala who join in extending
best wishes. The Tribune says:
A very quiet wedding of the first
part of next month, but one of much
interest, will be that of Miss Johnnie
Rutland and DR.. Henry Lester Smith.
Miss Rutland is one of the instructors
of English at the high school. She
has won masters degree at Colum-
bia College, and her wholesome, gen.
ial manner has made her one of the
most popular teachers among the
scholars and the other members of
the faculty. She will be married at
the home Of her sister, Mrs. w. f.
Hines, and only the immediate rela-
tives will be present. DIR. Smith is one
of the leading educators of the middle
west. He has his doctors degree
from Columbia, and it was here that
their romance began. He is professor
of educational administration at the
Indiana University in Wilmington,
and is the author of a number of
books on educational matters.
! In honor of her approaching mar
riage, Miss Rutland was given a clev-
erly arranged little party last eve
ming by Prof. and Mrs. E. L. Robin
son. The feature was playlet, built
on the foundation of English compost
j ton. It originated in the MIND of
ElMiss Lula B. Bradford and was a
4 pretty compliment from one English
teacher to the other.

night from visit to friends at Win
ter Haven.

Rosebud Robinson were guests last
night of Mrs. D. C. Stiles, Jr.
With Paris, the home of the world
of fashion, closed to our modistes
Palm Beach promises to be the fash
ion center of the United States. Dur
ing the next few weeks the very new
est creations in woman's dress will be
displayed for the first time there
and a feature which tends to confirm
the possibility of it becoming a fash
ion center, is the fact that "Women's
Wear" daily trade paper published
in New York City and circulated ex-
clusively among the largest manufac.
turers of women's wear in the United
States, has sent special represen-
tative, Miss Amanda Haven, there
for the season to write articles on the
new gowns. Miss De. Haven, who il
one of the most quoted authorities or
fashions, has spent much time hereto
fore in Paris and other fashion cen
ters in Europe, and her articles to hel
paper since coming to Palm Beach
have already started manufacturer:
to look to Florida for the new styles.
