MORE ABOUT if (Continued from Page One) The groom had as his best man, Timothy Gregory, of Norfolk, Va. The bride entered with her father, by whom she was given in marriage. The couple stood before the im provised marriage altar, with its white satin bench, while the Rev. J. Herbert Miller, of Hookerton, uncle of the groom, pronounced the vows, using the impressive ring ceremony. The bride was charmingly attired in a going-away costume of powder blue crepe with navy accessories. Her only ornament was her mother's cameo necklace. Her flowers were a shoulder corsage of Sweetheart roses and freesia. During trie ceremony "The Sweet est Story Ever Told" was softly played and the wedding marches "Lohengrin" by Wagner and Men delsshon's "A Midsummer Night's Dream," were used. The mothers and grandmothers of the bride and groom wore dresses of black crepe with harmonizing acces sories, and their flowers were gar" denias. Immediately following the cere mony, the young couple left by auto for an unannounced wedding trip. On their return they wiU make their home, in Norfolk, Va., where Mr. Perry holds a position. The bride is a young lady with a sweet, unassuming and winsome per sonality, loved by all who know her. She is a graduate of Perquimans High School and for the past two years has been employed at Simon Rutenburg's department store in Hertford. The bridegroom is a native of Per quimans County. For the past two years he has held a position in Nor folk. He is a young man of rare qualities, industrious and ambitious. The sincere good wishes of their many friends go with them through out their future life. Following the ceremony, during the noon hour, Mr. and Mrs. C. B. White served a delightful two-course buffet luncheon to the wedding guests, numbering about eighty. Those present from a distance in cluded Mrs. C. L. Williams and daughter, Mrs. C. A. Reep, of South Norfolk, Va.; Mr. and Mrs. L. E. White and family, Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Chappell and. family, Mr. and Mrs. R. M.

Miller and son, of Hookerton; Miss Mary Louise Chappell, Green ville. J. M. Benton Wins Hog Weight Guessing Contest A weie-ht-erainimr experiment for hogs which was concluded by the Perquimans Feed and Seed Store ended last Tuesday when John Broughton, manager of the store, took Amos and Andy out of the pens which have been their habitat during the past 90 days and proceeded to weigh them at the end of a 30-day feeding program. Quite a time was had because Amos, who had been fed on Hog Chow and corn for the past 90 days had gained a total of 117 pounds and was quite a hog for two men, to handle, but Andy, the other member of the experiment, wasn't quite so tough ... he had gained only 26 pounds on his diet of middling and corn. A weight-guessing contest, open to all comers, was hefld in connection with the growing experiment and out of approximately 225 guesses, J. M. Benton made the winning guess and, was awarded a prize, second honors in the guessing (although no award was offered) went to R. M. Riddick, caahier of the Hertford Bank. He missed Amos' weight by just one pound. MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER The Baptist Church Choir members were hostesses at a shower given for Mrs. Rupert Ainsley at the home of Mrs. J. E.
