u. S. NJ, will take place tomorrow
at / o'clock at the home Of Mrs.

: Barnett. It will be a simple we'd
ding, with only members of the

ceremony there will be an informal
breakfast for the little company
attending the wedding. The bride
win be given in marriage by her
brother. Walter C. Montague, of
Baltimore, and will be unattended.
Commander Murray, who is in the
afr service, is at present on duty
in Annapolis, and 1t Is there that
the couple will make their home.
Mrs. Muslin is the widow Of Cap
tain Henry c. Muslin, a pioneer OF
the air service.
Commander Murray and the late
Captain Muslin were, close friends
end q pretty feature Of the present
romance Is that it has been fostered
by Commander Murray's interest in
and affection for his friends three
young sons. The bride. who was
Miss Corinne Montague before her
FIRST marriage. is the daughter OF
Mrs. William G. Montague.
The wedding. informal as 1t Is.
win be by way OF housewarming
for General and Mrs. Barnett's new
residence. 1900 Nineteenth street.
which was occupied last year by
Mrs. Clark Munford. The Barnetts
have just moved in. having leased
their house at 1922 Rhode Island
avenue TO Captain and Mrs. Adolf
phus Andrews.
Explaining the Barnetts
Poor Mrs. Barnett. her multiple
city Of residences has caused so
much confusion among her friends
that she Is beginning to be con-
fused herself Yet the matter Is
really very simple.
You see the Barnetts own two
houses-the one in Rhode Island
avenue and another at 2132 Ban
croft place and have had both
charmingly furnished with lovely
old things acquired by inheritance
or picked up In their travels over
the world. Until recently the Ban
croft place house has been rented
furnished, but a few months ago
Mrs. Barnett let 1t unfuruished on
a IlNO-ycdT ACcSS ~ MIS-
Perkins, of Boston, very charm
ing person, by the way, and a dis
tinct acquisition to Washington.
This necessitated finding some
place to put the Barnetts' furniture
and in consequence they rented the
Nineteenth street house. AfterWard
they decided that the residence in
Rhode Island avenue was much too
big for them, with Mrs. Barnett's
daughters both married. and estab-
lisned in homes OF their own, so
they disposed OF 1t to the Andrews
and moved themselves into the
Nineteenth street house.
Suydams Buy House
So that's that. The fact that Mrs.
Baruett's son-in-law and daughter,
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Suydam, were
in their Nineteenth street house for
a few weeks, after having spent
part Of the summer in Mrs. Mus
tins apartment at the Woodley,
added a bit to the confusion. But
Mr.. and Mrs. Suydam, who were
married last spring, are now settled
in a home of their own, having
purchased the residence, 1872 Nine
teenth street, in the same block
with the Barnetts' new house.
General and Mrs. Barnett will re-
turn to Wakefield Manor, their
country place in Virginia, for
few weeks after the wedding. Then
they will come to Washington to
remain until January, when they
rather expect to go abroad
