 Mrs Robert Brooke, another sister of the bride, who will be remembered as lovely Gamaila Dixon, was the ma tron of honor and was very handsome in a gown of turquoise hlue taffeta. Her bouquet was similar to that of the maids and was tied with pink and silver tulle.
 The young bride came down the stairway alone and was met at the foot of the stairs by her father, by whom she was given in marriage.
 The winsome, radiant bride wore an exquisite wedding gown of tulle over taffeta and the long brocaded taffeta court train was draped from the shoulder and fell in graceful lines. The filmy tulle veil was worn over the face and caught on the head with orange blossoms. Her flowers were orchids and vailed lilies. Her only ornament was a handsome platinum and diamond aviation pin, gift of the groom.
 The groom entered with his father
 Mir. Frank Bates Fowlkes, and the ring ceremony was said by the Rev John MacSporran of the First Presby-
 terian church. He used a book bound
 in white and gold and after the cere-
 mony it was presented the bride and groom.
 After the ceremony an informal re-
 ception was held and Mir and Mrs. Dixon
 were assisted in receiving by the bride and groom, the wedding party, the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank

FILMS MADE BY
 BISHOP WONDERED Great British Aces Lecture Greatly Augmented By
 Scenes Taken In Air

"One of the most interesting parts of Col w. A. Bishops lectures is made up by the film he shows in connection with narrative of his thrilling experiences over the Hun lines on the western front. said Lieut.. Douglas Kirkpatrick Tuesday afternoon in commenting on the appear ance of this great war hero at the Jef- ferson theatre Saturday night. March s.
 T have heard Colonel Bishop, and want to say that his leceture alone is wonderful and well worth the price of ad- n .ssion, but the pictures are given as an added attraction, and make up an inter- esting feature of each appearance.
 Backed by a clear, strong voice. un- usually gifted along oratorical lines, and possessing some of the greatest and most sensational film, different from all others by virtue of the fact that it was taken on and over the front lines in thick of battle, his appearance at each city makes a decided hit, and they shave called for return engagement in Chicago. You only get a vision of the troops as they are moving up to go into action. These pictures Colonel Bishop possesses were made by himself while on his exploits in the cir and while at rest or reconnoiter- in. m flying low over No Mans Land"
 The seat sale for Colonel Bishops ap- pearancc will start tomorrow morning. and every indication points to capacity house when this greatest of all war heroes and possessor of innumerable med als wop for bravery makes his appear ance here.

ELEVEN TIMES "OVERSEAS"

next year, 1918, America had marched to victory and the great commanders words had come true.
 Tn our trips overseas" Mir. Monte- barro said, i've had some pretty tough times Several terrific storms and high seas were encountered particu larly during the month of March; this was not enough. though; we had 10 have our experience with the deadly submarines; but even so, it was a mild experience in comparison to many others The encounter we had oc- cured late one afternoon, about dusk, 1 should say; man on the bridge sighted with the telescope the first indication that a submarine was any where near us intent upon getting in its deadly work. This was reported at once and the signals were given and every man in jiffy was in his place on the big cruiser. Of course, we took the situation in hand, and in- stead of being blown /up we did little blowing up ourselves. If it had not been just s it was, there's no telling what might have happened.
 "In all our Il trips overseas that was our only submarine encounter.
 "We saw little, of course, of France or England although we landed either at Brest or the English coast" Mr. Montebarro said. ''We were too busy however getting ready for the return trips to have any opportunity to see anything of the foreign countries The wounded soldiers were waiting forNus to convoy them home. But even so, what I learned and the experience l had are worth a Hfetime's hard work In conservative every day life. The thousands and thousands of Red Cross people that we conveyed, the troops, the war workers in the "Y" work, Salvation army work; all the various activities; the lives of these people were in our hands and it was big order for us to put over and we put it over with practically no loss of life
 "The navy is wonderful branch of the service" MT Montebarro said "The discipline, the order and the routine work is liberal education in itself and l wouldn't take anything for my training at Hampton Roads nor my trips overseas. l regretted in way that I did not have a chance to serve the fleet to which I was ordered when I returned last November, but, as I said before, home was calling me and I heard the sweet sounds Of voices that I love so much and so began at once to make, my plans to return to civilian life. I got back to Birmingham on January 20, a little more than a month ago, and 1t IS mighty good to see familiar faces once more and be among my friends"
