Friday, February 25, 1938. THE SALEMITE Pase Five. HERE COMES THE GROOM Did it ever occur to you that in the usual news of a wedding, a man gets about as much attention as a delegate from a fourth class principality at a conference of nations? Herein we change it. Mr. Herman Clagett, son of Mrs. T. M. Clagett of Utopia, N. C. be came the bridegroom of Sally Patica, Wednesday morning, September 29, 1937 at 900 o’clock at St. James’ Church. The ceremony was largely attended. Mr. Clagett was attended by Mr. Oscar Augustine Mark Zilch as groomsman. As the groom approach ed the altar he was the cynosure of all eyes. Blushing prettily, he re plied to the questions of the clergy man in low but firm tones. He was charmingly clad in a three-piece suit consisting of coat, vest and pants. The coat, of some dark material, was draped elegantly about the shoulders and tastefully gathered under the arms. A charming story was current among the guests that the coat was the same one worn by his father and grandfather on their wedding day. Mr. Clagett would neither affirm nor deny the truth of this sentimental touch. The vest was sleeveless and met in the front. It was gracefully fash ioned with pockets, and at the back was held together by a strap and buckle of matching material. Conspicuous on the front of the vest was the groom’s favorite piece of jewelry, a Sharp Shooter’s Medal, and from the upper pocket was sus pended a large Ingersoll watch, the bride’s gift to the groom, which flashed and gave the needed touch of brillatfce to a costume in perfect taste and harmony. The groom’s pants were of dark material, and were suspended from the waist, falling in a straight line almost to the floor. The severe sim plicity of the garment was relieved by the right pantalet which was caught up about four inches from the floor by a Boston Brighton worn underneath, revealing just the ar tistic glimpse of brown holeproof above the genuine leather, laced with strings of the same color. The effect was rather chic. Beneath the vest the groom wore blue galluses attached fore and aft to the pants and passing in a grace ful curve over each shoulder. His neck was encircled with a col lar characterized by a delicate saw- edge, and around the collar a cravat was loosely knotted, so that it rode up under his left ear with a studied effect of carelessness which marks supreme artistry in dress. Oscar Augstine Zilch’s costume was essentially like the groom’s, and as the two stood at the altar, a hush of awed admiration enveloped the audience. Neither Mr. Herman Clag ett nor Mr. O. A. M. Zilch wore a hat, and their careful coiffeurs were in the latest vogue. As Mrs. Clagett led the groom from the altar, it was noted that she wore the conventional veil and or ange blossoms.
