' :umn leaves, in their gorgeous l fia. ng colors, were festooned from! the windows, ceiling, altar and all' coiners of the church,- making 3 m striking setting for the wedding ce? • mony. S mewhere in the distance a clock struck eight. At precisely the same moment the soft mellow tones of the organ pealed forth the fa miliar strains of Lohengrin's -wed ding march. A few minutes later the maid of honor, Miss Dora Folte bercr. gowned in sheer autumn flowered chiffon, carrying a large bouquet of yellow pom-poms, slow ly started up the carpeted aisle and was met by the best man, Mr. Fritz Wettin. The bride then entered on the arm of her father, a sweet picture in a shimmering wtyite satin princess sown, with a veil of tulle and point lace. She carried a huge bouquet of white pom-poms, flecked with pale pink roses, that matched the pale p:'rk -atin of the bridal slippers. A >n ;r.L of pearls were threaded through the soft waves of her beau tify.! hair. As she gracefully walked up the aisle, the entire congrega tion arose and paid a silent tribute to the bride and groom. At the altar the groom stepped beside the bride, and the impressive marriage cere n.ony was read by Rev. L. G. Bold. After th.e ceremdny the bride j ana groom slowly walked down the aisle together to the tune of Men delssohn's wedding march, followed by the ushers, Fritz Wettin, Jr., and Evelyn Loatch. A reception was held at the home of Miss Dora Folteberg. which was led by seventy-five guests. A d&iicious bulfet supper was served, and a huge wedding cake, some thirty pounds in weight, was very much enjoyed. During the evening the bride and groom made an escape, not with out a few mishaps, in the form of tricks to kidnap one or the other However, they did succeed, and left to t:ur points of interest in the East.
