from previous page ....... Miss Frances STEGER, of Pulaski, responded graciously to the call for song; with "A Day Dream," so well suited to her rich soprano. Miss
STEGER was in splendid voice and happy in the selection of her sympathetic accompanist, Miss Bess
PEERY, Miss Mary MOSS, Miss Katrina GOSE, and Miss Dora
MEEK gracefully rendered a veritable piano concert. Miss Lucy MOSS, always at ease before an audience, gave two readings to the delight of the company. The unique bouillon cups of ice cream, with the color scheme of pink and white carried out in its layers, and the pink mint and brown nuts on top in the form of a star for luck, featured the refreshments, but it was the delicious cakes of pink and white and generous size that made one feel that so far the making of a cake remains the greatest achievement in the art of cooking.
The wedding ceremony, the climax act of the the play, always half sad, however glad, was staged at noon on Wednesday. The parlor and hall were artistically hung with pink and white, the brides color scheme, clusters of pink carnations enlivening dark evergreens in most effective brightness. The unobtrusive good taste of the hostess assisted by her daughter in law, Mrs. C.J.
MOSS, of Tazewell even adorned the beautiful in arranging so pretty a setting for the handsome costumes and smiling countenances. Mrs. Nannie Rose Moss
PEERY, with her beautiful sister, Mary, at the piano, sang the wedding love song, "Because I love you" in a feeling contrite, vibrant with the spirit of the occasion. As the familiar chords of the wedding march floated from the tender touch of the bride's sister, Lettie, filled the rooms and warning the expectant groom that the crucial hour had come, four pretty little fairy flower girls, Janie
HOGE, Mary MOSS, Alverta WHITE and Lettie NEAL, in pink and white, tripped gleefully down the stair, their bright baskets of sweet peas spilling sweet scented sunshine down the pathway and their sparkling eyes aglow with childish excitement, saying "Here comes the bride!" Rev. W.W.
ARROWOOD, the bride's pastor, in the informal and impressive ceremony of the Presbyterian church, with ring and vow and God's benediction on the sanctity of the act, joined together what no man shall put asunder.
The groom appeared in handsome conventional black. The bride, in brocaded cream satin with silk net and pearls, and carrying a shower bouquet of cream rose buds with streamers of lily of the valley, looked, herself, a lovely lily of the valley. In a profusion almost to confusion, love and good wishes were showered upon Dr. and Mrs.
HIGGINBOTHAM.
