 were shown, in beautiful hand painted effect, baskets of flowers and love birds in q deep rich shade of blue.
 Through the gauge filled arches was visible the vista of the lawn with the verdure of it's trees and shrubbery sil- inouetted against the sunset sky. Im- mediately without the central arch prayed an Italian fountain with it's graceful figure. At the other arches appeared urns in classical shapes hold ing stately lilies. And from the inclos- ing trellises were suspended baskets of lilies from which fell graceful trailing vines.
 Placed upon the broad veranda ex- tending across the front of the house were great green -arched trellises. forming an aisle from each side of the doorway through which from the porches at the sides, the members of the bridal party advanced as they ap- proached the altar and passed through the white wicker gates at the head of the stone stairway.
 These arches were profuselv fes- tooned with southern smilax, and in the spaces separating them, assisting in the formation of the aisles, were tall white candelabra, upon the standards of which were hung baskets of sunburst roses and coreopsis. The stone stair way and the floor of the enclosed ter race were covered with green canvas Dordered with myrtle leaves.
 The beautiful decorations and lovely Italian setting were designed and ex- ecuted by Mrs. W. H. Kettig.
 The nuptial music was furnished un- der the direction of MT. and Mrs. On- yer Chalifoux, upon organ, harp and violin.
