simplicity and was the remark -of
every one present.

W, A. Bradsher, meeting at the
altar where the father gave the
bride away. Rev. E. M. Snipes
performed the ceremony, using
the ring ceremony in a most beau
tiful and impressive manner,
The bride was most charming
in her wedding gown of white
brocaded charmeuse. with drape
ry of pleated chiffon, trimmed
with rhinestone bands, and tulle
veile which covered the entire
costume, She carried a bouquet
of bride's roses showered with
lilies of the valley.

of honor, wore a 'handsome yel
low charmeuse, with overdress of
embroidery net, and carried a
bouquet of yellov roses, - .
While, of course, the groom
