Her pretty white satin hat was veiled with tulle, and trimmed with white marguerites and white satin streamers, and she wore a string of pearls and carried two ivory bound prayer books in an ivory bag, from which were streamers of white satin ribbon with a spray of orange blossoms attached, gifts of the bride-

groom.

Miss " Toti" Gavin, as bridesmaid, wore a simple frock of white em-broidered Persian lawn, with white satin sash. Picture hat of white satin straw, trimmed with vieux rose roses, crown veiled with black areophane and black satin streamers.
