appeared as the chief executive
and his wife.
The wedding march, taken
from Lohengren, was played by
Mrs. Jean Stanley Goodrich. The
ceremony" took place beneath
an arch in the parlor of the club
house. Everything went along in
fine shape and the youngsters car
ried out their roles with nary a
slip except that the little ring
bearer was unfortunate enough to
slip and fall as she proceeded un-
der the arch.
A reception followed the "cerc-
mony", during which all of the
guests met and shook hands with
