DAMON-TODD NUPTIALS

The most elaborate social function
of the season in Medina was the we'd
ding on Thursday Of this week Of
Miss Eulaila Pauline Damon to Mr..
Willis Clarke Todd. The bride is the
only daughter of Dir. and Mrs. G. J..
Damon of Medina, and the groom the
son of Mr.. and Mrs. F. H. Todd,
former residents of Mallet Greek,
this county, but now Of Cleveland.
The ceremony, performed by Rev.
W. R. Moffet of the local Church Of
Christ, took place on the rear lawn
of the palatial home Of the brides
parents, 212 South Broadway, amid
a setting of flower and fern of un-
usual effectiveness and beauty. Stand
ing underneath an arched bower en-
twined with Southern honeysuckle
vine and pink roses, and encircling
the inner base of which were large
and bowling potted ferns, stood the
happy couple to receive the sacred
rite Of matrimony, while suspended
above their heads was large bell
formed from pink and white carna-
tions.
+ The bride wore gown Of white
satin, made short. Her tulle veil
was caught to her head, capfashion,
with lilies Of the valley. She car
ried a shower bouquet Of bride roses.
Mrs. Leland Walton, matron of hon
or, was >gowned in pink organdy,
wore pink tulle hat and her shower
bouquet was of pink roses.
The BRIDES mother wore a beaded
taupe chiffon and her corsage bou-
quet was orchids and sweet peas.
The brides travelingsuit was of
navy blue tricotine with blue horse
hair braid hat to match.
Immediately preceding the cere-
mony and to which they formed a
fitting prelude, the ballads, 20
Promise Me" and II Love You
Truly" were sung respectively by
Mrs. Elva Eubanks of Cleveland and
Mrs Milton Gage of Medina, while
the service itself was heightened by
the playing of the wedding march
by an orchestra within the church
some distance away under the direc-
ton Of John Beck, the faint strains
from which waited to the marriage
altar like the gentle strains of an
Aeolian.
The bride was attended by Mrs.
Leland Walton Of Lakewood and the
groom by Mr.. Harold Plunkett of
New York. Virgil Damon and
VIM. Todd, brothers respectively Of
the bride and groom, served as ush-
ers, and little Raymond Mellert and
Claudine Gage as pages.

supper was served in the main audi

Joining the Damon residence. There
were seven tables, six Of which were
placed rectangularly around large
one, the place of honor, in the center,
and covers laid for ninety guests,
Here the same color scheme of pink
and green as at the altar was carried
out, many pink candles being an

corner stood pedestals bearing ferns
A huge wedding cake adorned The
center, upon which were outlined The
initials of the ones in whose honor il
was made, and the periphery Of
