East Smith

Stereotyped phrases wane and
pale when one attempts to por-
tray the beauty and solemnity Of
the sacred vows of mat.imony.
On the afternoon of Sept. II,
in the beautiful Episcopal Chapel,
one of Okolona's most charming
and winsome girls, Miss Marga-
ret Yvonne Smith pIighted her
troth to Mr.. Thomas Ferns East,
the impressive ceremony being
said by the former beloved Rec
tor, Rev. j. Lundy Sykes.
Loving and artistic fingers
had transformed the interior of
the church into a bower of green
and white. great showers of
feathery ferns suspended from
multitude of ribbons were held
in place by soft maline bows.
The lovely maids and -matron
of honor, the darling little flow
er girls and ribbon bearers were
gowned in dainty white with
sashes of green and carried
sheaf bouquets of ferns. The
groom and attendants were i'm
maculate in conventional suits
while the only note of color was
the magnificent fur trimmed
going away costume of taupe
chiffon broadcloth worn by the
bride, who passed down the
flower strewn aisle leaning upon
the arm of her father.
The happy couple left imme-
diately after the ceremony for
their home in Chicago.
The many exquisite and useful
wedding gifts testify to the
popularity of Mr.. and Mrs. East.
May their lives ever be happy,
prosperous and useful is the
wish of A Friend.
