By WINIFRED VAN DUzER.

New York, Dec. l8.-WinifreC
Sackville Stoner, jr., famous as the
wonder child OF wonderful moth
er," is married.
DR.. Winifred Sackville Stoner, au.
thor, lecturer and originator Of the
natural education method for chill
dren," announced the wedding of her
daughter last August J, to Charles
PHILIPPE de Bruche Of Paris, described
by DR.. Stoner as wonder son-in-
law"
Witnessed by three or four init
mate friends, the ceremony was per-
formed in the Stoner home on Cen
trail Park West. And despite the fact
that the couple have enjoyed four
months honeymoon in this city, few
suspected that they were more than
the best of friends.
Youngest in "Who's Who"
Winifred, second, as she is known
in educational and literary circles
here, is the youngest parsonage to
appear in who's Who" Although
but 10, her accomplishments and
achievements fill third of a column
in that imposing volume.
She figures particularly as an au-
thor, suffrage worker, lecturer and
historian. Her first public appear
ance was at the age of when she
delivered an impromptu speech in
Pittsburgh on Natural Education.
DIR. Stoner proudly explained that
her newly acquired son-in-law is
quite the equal of her daughter in
educational attainment She talked
Of their meeting and the romance
which followed.
DE Bruche is a globe trotter. He
has gone adventuring in most out Of
the way corners of Africa and In
dia, always ostensibly upon some diff
fcult quest; in search of gold, OF
scarabs, or all but forgotten manu-
scripts.
"But his wanderings have been
really in answer to the call of the
open track. His life is colorful as
a Maxheld Parish fancy.
Finds Romance.
"He came to America six months
ago to search for romance in the
new world. 1t was only few
weeks later that he and my daughter
met. Love at first sight was the
result.
They found that every interest
was an interest shared each with
the other. Both are linguists. But
while Winifred speaks only IL Ian
guages, De Bruche speaks many
more-about II, l believe. They
both enjoy writing; my daughter has
travelled extensively and so they had
the memory OF exotic places in COM
mon.
But more than all else, both are
athletes; both love the out-of-doors.
"And while De Bruche is Is years
the elder, Winifred decided that she
finally had met her Prince Charm
ing of whose existence she always
before had been doubtful.
Writes on Honeymoon.
Accordingly they were married
as quietly as it could be arranged.
For Winifred said it concerned only
them, and she didn't wish to share
il.
They left the city a few weeks
ago for Florida. They are travelling
about the south IN a touring car,
and Winifred is driving. That is
her notion of an ideal honeymoon"
Since her marriage Dr.. Stoner
said Mrs. De Bruche has written a
novel, Which," 1t deals with the
question of disarmament and is back
grounded by Washington and the
peace conference.
The couple will remain in this
country for the next six months
when they will go to Paris. They
plan to maintain homes both in tie
French city and in New York.
The bride is the daughter of DR.,
