ALABAMA COUPLE MARRY IN ASHEVILLE, N. c.

A marriage characterized by great simplicity but impressive beauty was that of June 4 at high noon at Grove Park Inn, when Miss Maria Evelyn Calvin of Decatur, Ala, and Mir. Jo- seph Almoth Woods of Albany, Ala, were united in marriage. The bridal setting was arranged in one, of the private parlors, stately palms and ferns forming the rich greenry as a back ground for the burning white tapers in 'candelbra. Handsome roses and lilies were used to complete the lovely setting.
 As a prelude to the nuptial service, a beautiful musical program was rem dered on the Grove Park organ by Harry Edward Mueller of Washing ton, D. C., the new organist at the Inn. The bridal march from Lohengrin heralded the approach of the wedding party. During the ceremony the or ganist softly played "At Dawning."
 :, Dr. R. F. Campbell, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, the offieiat- ing minister, entered immediately pre- ceding the groom and his best man, Mir. Asbury Malone of Albany, Ala.
 The bride then entered upon the arm of her father, by whom she was given in marriage. She was a picture of girIish loveliness in her bridal array. She wore a white georgette gown in roun dlength, youthful model, em- broidered in pearls and crystals. Her tulle veil was caught in a lace coronet around her brow with orange blossoms and fell just below the hem of her gown. She carried a soWer bouquet of exquisite beauty.
 Immediately following the ceremony, q wedding breakfast was served in the private dining room, the table being handsomely appointed. Later in the afternoon Mir. and Mrs. Woods left for a honeymoon. The brides gOing-away suit was three-piece black and white charmeen beautifully embroidered in pastel shades with small black hat and . accessories to match.
 The bride is the only daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Joseph Hiram Calvin, of Decatur, Ala. Last week she grad uated at Boucher college at Baltimore. Her mother went up two weeks ago for a little visit to her and to witness the graduation exercises. Mrs. Calvin and her daughter arrived at Grove Park Inn on Tuesday and were joined here by the members of their family and a few relatives from Alabama, who came to attend the marriage solemnization. The Calvin family has taken 124 Eve lyn Place for the summer, but pre- ferred to have the wedding at Grove Park Inn prior to opening up the house.
 The wedding party were: Mir, and Mrs. F. A. Woods of Albany, Ala, parents of the bridegroOm; Mir. and Mrs. J. W. Cunningham of Albany, Ala, the latter sister of Mrs. Calvin

For Hot Days

One Mother Says:
 One of the most magical ways on a hot day to turn'a cross, unhappy child into a bundle of fun and enjoyment is cold water, giving it to him and letting him wash himself. Of course, this is more effective if part of the clothing is removed.

 In France a woman has no power to transact business without the consent of her husband, and can have no bank de- posit or draw checks without the au- torisation maritale, says the New York Post. American women doing busi- ness with French banks are often obliged to present letter from the hus- band authorizing them to open a bank account, or they must procure a certifi- cat de coutume from an American law yer, showing that by American law a woman has the same rights as a man.
