length of the wedding procession, with
its ten ushers, best man, maid of honor,
flower girl and two bridesmaids-six
teen in all--made up for the brevity Of
service. The yellow and white effect
carried out was particularly suggestive
OF early summer and nothing could
have been prettier. Attending the

sister, and preceding them was Cath

and his two younger sisters, Miss Hilda

the bridegroom
The costuming for the wedding was
exceedingly original, point for which
the Misses Hoar have been noted since
their coming out" The bride selected
her her gown while abroad, just before
the engagement was announced. and il
was altogether beautiful 1t was of
soft georgette in ivory white, the
bodice CUT square in the neck and
slightly draped, as was the skirt, while
the real telling feature was the court
train of cloth OF silver lined with
georgette. Her veil was of rose point,
arranged simply across coiffure and
held over either ear with a cluster
OF orange blossoms. Orange blossoms
sprayed both the veil and gown and
the sandals of silver brocade with old
Straus buckles were of the most
characteristic touch. She wore string
Of pearls and her flowers were a sheaf
of perhaps half dozen white lilies,
few gardenas being tied in with the
ribbon tulle where they we're held to-

aside black for the first time since the
death of her father, Mr.. Rice, and wore
an orchid shade of georgette grace
of the same shade trimmed with
flowers. The Speaker escorted the bride

wore one of the most bewitching of
costumes, fashioned in a hoop-shaped
skirt of cream yellow lace over white
taffeta, and with a girdle and clusters
of small flowers shading from peach
blow pink to fame color as an adorn-
ment. The clusters were arranged to
hold straps of silk over the shoulders
The hat, not large but scoop shape

deep veil of yellow lace turned back
from the face. The gowns worn by the
bridesmaids were much simpler, being
of deem cream eeorgette simply draped,
while their wide brimmed hats of gold

turt;uns. They carried flowers shading
fl on flame and red to pink shades.
