Daughter of Bride
Is Picturesque.

was picture of springtime in her
dainty gown of pale green organdy
made on old-fashioned lines with
long full sleeves cuffed at the wrists.
The neckline of her dress was high
at the back and the deep v at the
front had revers of the organdy. The
gown had girdle of green velvet
ribbon which matched her slippers
and the streamers on her natural
straw hat. Carrying out the color
scheme OF her mothers costume
were the flowers of honey color
velvet on her hat. Her bouquet was
a riot of color for in the spray were
pink roses, delphinium, lilies of the
valley, forget-me-nots, yellow blos-
SONS, gyosophelia and gay color
sweetpeas.
