snort skirt, giving the new uneven
mem line. With her frock, Miss Davis
wore slippers and hose to match Her
flowers were an arm bouquet of vel
low chranthemums and asparagus
fern, tied with gold tulle. A wreath
OF golden leaves was about her hair.
Just preceding the entrance of the
BRIDE came two dainty little flower
girls, Roberta Halle and Clarice
Philips. These wee misses were
adorable in frocks of yellow organdy,
trimmed with many puffings of the
material. They carried baskets tied
with gold tulle and containing vel
low rose-petals. Both are clear
blondes and their fluffy yellow hair
fitted well into the beautiful picture.
The bride entered on the arm of
her father, Mr.. w. P. Merriam, who
gave her in marrige. They were met
at the altar by Mr.. Philips and his
best-man, his brother, Mr.. Louis D.
Philips. Here the impressive ring
ceremony was read by DR.. Donald
MacQueen. With the conclusion of
the words which made the young
people man and wife, the joyous
strains of the Mendelsohn wedding
march sounded, and the bridal party
came down the aisle, the little flow
er girls scattering rose petals in the
path of the bride.
The very youthful bride was a
vision of girlish loneliness in her
bridal costume, which was fashioned
on the bouffant lines so becoming to
her petite type. The gown was of
white radium taffeta, short-skirted,
and with the uneven hem line. The
bodice was fashioned in long-waisted
effect, the round neck outlined with
small tassells, to correspond with
the long silk fringe which came from
under the panniers on the skirt to
extend almost to the hem in an I'M
even line. Long, loose sleeves of!
reorgette were caught to the arms
with bands of the taffeta. A fetch
ng feature of the skirt was the fact
hat while only one panier was on
he left side, three smaller panels
on the right, each conferred
With rose of taffeta. A tulle veil,
n the duchess style, was caught to
he hair with coronet of orange bios
oms. The veil extended to the hem
f the frock, a tiny bit of weight
eing given by delicate tracery of
liver thread. Satin slippers with
arge pearl buckles completed the
ostume. Miss Merriam's flowers
we're an arm bouquet of brides roses
With shower of valley lilies.
Following the ceremony, the bridal
