GEIER-PERRENOT WEDDING
SATURDAY.

The marriage of Miss Carol Perre-
not and Mr.. Walter Henry Geier of
Cincinnati, Ohio, will be solemnized
Saturday morning at eleven O'Clock
in st. James Episcopal church in
Jacksonville.
Miss Perrenot will be given in mar
riage by her mother, Mrs. Katherine
M. Perrenot, of AndaIusia, Ala, and
the brides only attendant will be her
younger sister.
Following the ceremony at the
church the bridal party and number
of friends will be entertained at a
luncheon at the Florida Country Club.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geier will sail for
New York in the afternoon, and after
few days in that city will go for a
trip through Canada, and will then
proceed to Alaska. After the fiji
teenth of December Mrs. and Mrs.
Geier will be at home to their friends
at the Haydock apartments, Grand
View avenue, Walnut Hill, Cincinnati,
Ohio.
In commenting on the approaching
marriage, the Cincinnati Enquirer
says:
The engagement announced in last
Sundays Enquirer of Miss Carol Per-
renot and Mr.. Walter H. Geier has
brought in its train the congratula-
tons Of friends from both sides of
Mason and Dixon's line. The bride
elect, who is exquisitely blonde, with
a most perfect coloring and a dainty
figure, is a daughter of Mrs. Kathe-
rine E. Perrenot, of Andalusia, Ala,
her father, the late C. j. Perrenot of
Milton, Fla, having been one of the
most brilliant leaders of the Florida
bar and president of the senate of
his state at the time of that exciting
episode in Florida political history
which dealt with the famous Call
Chipley senatorial election. Miss
Perrenot, who is very gifted musical
ly, has been for two years a student
at the Cincinnati Conservatory of
Music, where her musicianship quick
ly gained for her place on the facuI-
ty. She was educated at Belmont
College, Nashville, at Gunston Hall,
Washington, and at the Florida State
Woman's College, where she gradual
ed. In addition to her other charms
and gifts she is an accompanist,
whose services some of the most dis
tinguished musicians of the country
have sought while in Cincinnati, her
appearance before the Matinee Musi-
cal Club, of which she is an active
member, having been last winter a
triumph for her and for the clubs
program committee.
Mr.. Geier, who, with his brothers,

control one of the most important
concerns of its kind in the world, do
so not only with marked commercial
success, but with modern altrustic
purpose, which has come to be recog-
nized as the great psychology of bust
ness. Their Welfare Association in
connection with their great plant at
Oakley, is one of the most interesting
expositions of modern commercial
life, and in its philanthropic issues
the brothers of this household are
all vitality interested. Mr.. Walter
Geier shares with his fiance a love
as well as talent for music, and the
other interests of his leisure hours
include his membership in the Bust
ness Mems Club and in the Fort Nit
chell Country Club.
The marriage is set for July % at
Jacksonville, Fla, in the picturesque
chapel of st. Johns Episcopal church,
so well known to the winter tourist at
this gateway of the Southern travel
er. The hour is IL in the morning,
and the ceremony will be quitely per-
formed in the presence of the i'm
mediate families and a few friends
only. The brides sister, Miss Louise
Perrenot, will be her only maid. A
wedding breakfast will follow the
ceremony, and after it Mr.. Geier will
take his pretty bride upon a long and
fascinating journey, which will keep
them happy wanderers from Cincin-
natl until the late automn. They will
be at home in the Haydock Apart
ments on Grandview avenue, Walnut
Hills, after December 10, when the
bride will be welcomed heartily as a
permanent factor in the delightful
musical colony, where for several
years she has been an interesting,
though temporary, addition to its
| forces.

If frocks will spread themselves
over the landscape five yards or more,
then it follows that petticoats must
spread. So with, the aid of feather
bone and haircloth, they have taken
on great width.
It's on the petticoat boned ana
stiffened that our 1880 frocks lean
for their magnificent five-yard flare,
and because of this all manner of
hip-dimensions and flares have been
devised to give the necessary bouff-
ancy to fluffy gowns of tulle, or wolfe

THE SENSE OF
PROPORTION.

There is an innate longing in
every woman for pretty things.
One may see shop girls every day
wonderfully attired, but, to the stu
dent of human nature, the very
gaudiness or unsuitability of the
frowsy hair, the over-trimmed waist,
the tawdry ribbons or jewelry, only
bespeaks the eternal feminine-the
longing after the beautiful, the etfec-
tive, the pretty things of life, unat-
tainable, but longed for and striven
for, no matter how poor the woman,
how barren the possibilities.
1t is just as natural for a girl to
want pretty things as it is for her to
breathe. The woman behind the
counter, the poorly paid school,
teacher, the over-worked stenograph-
er, is just as fond of the things that
appeal to the eye as the most FORUM
ate of women, who is Tapped in dainty
luxuries all her waking and sleeping
hours.
The rare woman is gifted with a
sense of proportion, however, which
prevents over dressing, or becoming
addicted to cheap finery. She has the
sense to discriminate and to realize
that the tawdry will soon tarnish,
that the cheap fabrics will soon fade
or wear badly, that the store or the
Office is no place for fnery-if it ever
has place.
She learns that to be well dressed
is to be neatly dressed. To be be-
comingly dressed means to be suit
ably dressed. If she cannot have
dainty things, soft laces and silken
fabrics, she may, at least, have be-
coming clothes, if she uses her brains
and her opportunities to good advan-
taQe.
