standing beside her beaming
bridegroom, Johnny Stewart,
about to throw her bouquet
from the balcony of the May
flower ballroom, at the recep-
ton which followed the church
ceremony Saturday afternoon.
Katherine Friant, the maid
of honor at the ceremony, was
the lucky girl to catch the
Gala lilies and Immediately she
was surrounded by friends who
just knew she was going to be
the next bride. She was pretty
as a picture in her aquamarine
net frock, and the bridesmaids
floating about in their pale
pink gowns were having tn e
time of their young lives, en-
joying every single minute of
the party.
The Assistant Postmaster
General and Mrs. W. W. Howes,
parents of the bride, were con-
tinually being told how very
lovely their daughter looked
and congratulated upon having
such a nice new son-in-law. The
bridegroom's stepfather and
mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Lawrence
Welch Wilkin, were having so
many introductions being made
to them that their heads must
still be swimming with a sea of
faces and new names. Mrs.
Wilkin is young and pretty,
and her striking black and
white costume was h e last
word in chic.
Mary Senate, for her "some-
thing borrowed" carried
handmade lace handkerchief
which Mrs. Cabot Stevens
had loaned her, and while the
honeymoon destination of the
newlyweds was pretty much of
a secret, we have a suspicion
that mail to North Attleboro,
Massachusetts, will reach them
IN a few days. Senate, only
a day or so before the wedding,
secured her drivers permit, so
by the time sh e returns to
Washington she may have
many miles of chauffeuring to
her credit, though we suspect
Johnny will exert his prerog-
ative as head of the house"
Mrs. James A. Farley, wife
Of the Postmaster General, was
present and wore a most be-
coming lace gown of cocoa
brown, with a large brimmed
matching hat. The P. G. was
member of the party with the
President at the jefferson Is
land Club and hence was un-
able to be present.
Guests toasted the health and
happiness of the young couple
IN delicious champagne, and
the huge buffet table was GEN.
tered with most effective bou.
quet of Easter lilies and white
delphinium. Two, who Just
about didn't make the cere-
mony, were Mr.. and Mrs. Emil
Hurja. Mr.. Hurja flew to Wash.
lngton in order to be present,
and when they directed their
driver to All Souls Memorial
Episcopal Church, he proceeded
to take them to an entirely diff
ferent edifice. but they did
arrive in time!
Celebrating their silver we'd
ding anniversary, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hollie Brokenberry McCormac
were hosts at a buffet supper
friday night at Macsfield,
their charming Colonial home
IN Winchester. Their guests
numbered around 500, and
dancing was enjoyed on two
different floors, one of which
was arranged in the garden be-
meath a full moon. The serv-
ants lent an effective note with
their gayly colored crinoline
costumes.
Young friends of the McCor-
macs son joined the group
Tor dancing, and the party
lasted until the wee sma' hours.
Mr.. and Mrs. Julius Marcev
