AWONDERFUL trip around South Africa begins for Parkes Chrestman

and his wife-formerly Sydney lass Jillian Lemone-when they set off by air from Johannesburg on May 4.

CONSUL-GENERAL FOR SWEDEN, Mr. Ivar Stenstrom, escorts his elder daughter, Marianne, into St. Philip's, Church Hill, for her wedding with Dr. Richard Tooth. The bride's attendants are (from left) Mrs. Ian Curlewis, Maud Stenstrom, and Mrs. Max Elliott. Inset picture: Dr. and

Mrs. Tooth leave the church for the reception.

The Chrestmans have been

living in South Africa since they left Sydney late in 1954. In a recent letter to Sonia Storch, of Bellevue Hill, Jil-lian tells of the exciting itin-erary she and Parkes have planned.

First stop will be Rhodesia, then the Belgian Congo, and Kenya . . . where they'll stay with friends, and are hoping for some big-game hunting.

The Chrestmans' final port of call is Zanzibar, after which they expect to make their home in Port Elizabeth for a few months.
