1EttE were several WeuultSS
this week in which Washing
= ton was greatly interested,
most Of them on June 1.-The ladies
most concerned apparently Selling the
earliest available date to get into the
June bride class. There was the mar
riage of Miss Adelaide Pearce and
Theodore F. Noyes, son Of Theodore
w. Noyes of the Washington Star. 1t
was quite an elaborate wedding, al
though it took place in the apartment
Of the brides mother. in the Calver-
ton, where large company would
have been out of the question.
The bride was given away by her
brother. Midshipman William T. Pearce.
and looked lovely in her gown of ivory
tinted satin. with drapery of georgette.
and rare old duchess lace held by orange
blossoms. and a graceful train of the
satin falling from the shoulders. She
had for her matron of honor Mrs.
Charles X. West. and her tiny niece and
nephew, Adelaide Dunsmore Smith, and
William Peirce Thatcher. were ribbon
bearers. Mr.. Noyes had G. Adams How
ard as best man. and Mr.. j. Curtis
Walker and Thomas c. Thatcher as
ushers. There was an informal recep-
ton after the ceremony for intimate
friends and close relatives. and the
young couple started off on a bridal trip
of some length to be made by motor.
They are to be back by the end of June
and will make their home in Washington.
Then there was the wedding OF Rep
resentative Charles b. Undertake of
Colorado and Mrs. Catherine Ballard.
formerly of Colorado, for which Senator
and Mrs. Lawrence c. Phipps of Colorado.

Phipps as Pittsburgh steel man. which
he is--or was-opened their lovely SUBJ
urban home Single Oak on Woodley
road. in the presence of very small
company. the ceremony being performed
by Bishop William F. Mcdowell of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr.. and
Mrs Undertake left Immediately on a
short wedding trip. and will be at homo
to their friends at Congress Hall after
their return.
Then a good many Washingtonians
were interested In the Tiffany-Saportas
wedding in New York. Arthur Bradley
Campbell and Mr.. and Mrs. Sylvanus
Stokes. Jr.. were among those who went
up for 1t. The Stokeses went up several
days In advance, as Mrs. Stokes-for-
merly Margaret Fahnestock-was one of
the wedding party. They returned to
Washington on Thursday and were plan
ming to spend the weekend at Stokes.
Va. with relatives of Mr. Stokes Later
on they are going to spend a while at
Mount Katahdin and a few weeks at
Newport before sailing for the other side
In August.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stokes were victims of
the weather last Sunday. They had
chartered a boat and had planned a
party OF about twenty to go down the
river, land at some convenient place and
have picnic lunch and a swim, serving
dinner on board on their way home.
But Sunday was day of successive
showers. some OF them rather violent
and not at all the sort for that sort OF
! trip. The Peruvian Ambassador and
Nine. Pezet had also planned a picnic
trip, with quite large party Of guests,
but the weather forced a landing, and
an indoor party at the Wilson's was
substituted
Summer plans seem rather slow in
! formulating. Quite a few of the diplo-
mats are going home for extended vaca-
tons: some have already gone. The
|
instance rather stole a march on their
friends-for good many had not rea-
lized that they were going until they
sailed last Saturday-for @ long summer
at home, the first, IL memory serves, that
| they have had since they arrived here
three or four years ago. They are to
travel all over thir own country and
spend considerable time at Belgrade, and
in August go to Paris for a while. and
to England for longer visit, not return
ing here until October.
