The marriage was one of the most beautiful, taking place here for many jMft'rb. The church had been beauti fully jtlfHkjrate<i with long and short leaf 'pine, intermingled wfth southern smilax, against a background of white. Promptly at 3:30 to the strains of Mendelssohns wedding march, the brid al party entered the church, lirst the little ribbon girls, Anabel Floyd and Harriet Lewis.

Now York, May l.-?-Perhajw the most noticeable (hint; about the summer stylos Is their decided youthfulncKN ; this Ik txrth in lino and ?>olorlng. The straight HiumI frocks ami nulls of serge, gabardine, tafTota aiul falllo, lend grace and youth t<? alt typOH of tlguro. For Instants, a yoked, pleated frik'k of dark blue sorgo trimmed with black taffeta may be worn by the large woman or the small olio with equally gixnl re suits. one particularly g<?od model worn l?y a largo woman, at an oxhlhl t ton recently, was made with a deep shoulder yoke of black tatYota, the serge laid In deep, Hat pleats, hanging straight from the. yoke. A girdle, con sisting ?>f two narrow stitched straps of the black v.llk, came well down ovor the hl|>s, giving a long, slender api>ear ance to a rather heavy tlguro. A pret ty adaptation ?>f the same stylo of dress Is Illustrated here In serge for the slender, younger woman. Satin Is effective with sorgo; and of course the combination of navy blue sorgo and black satin is quite as ular this season aguln as It has been for several seasons past. One sees nia ny smart sorgo frocks with sleeveless coatws of black satin, half .skirts of satin, sleeves of satin, and the various other notions favored for the modish combining of two or more contrasting materials. Scarcely a frock appears tlie.se days made strictly of one mater ial. It is a fad which makes for econ omy and becomlngness. The sjwrt costume is another youth ful notion. It imparts a delightful feeling of freedom, both of movement and Spirit. There is something very l>ecoming and exhilarating about the combinations of vivid colorings in the wide striped, checked and printed nov elty fabrh-s now being used in skirts and suits. The middy-blouse costume is |>opulnr with all ; one of the new materials being used for middys Ls an adaptation of the old-fashioned jean. This material wears quite as well as its ably priced, and a most satlsfaet ry material generally for middy blouse and accompanying skirt. An effective combination for a middy costume is one of the bright awning striped lin ens or . ducks, with blouse of plain white, collared and cuffed in the stripes. One of New ork's smart shops is show ing a middy blouse which flares smart ly over the hips ; the idea Is novel and attractive In Its up-to-da tenets, quite in accordance with the season's sil houtee.

The decision of the Judges was unani mous but it is not to the discredit of the Camden debaters, both of whom dkl well; Miss Bateman deserving much credit for the force and charm of her delivery. But the Kershaw debaters had the better argument* and presented them, with much force. Thr audience was very appreciative. In the ball game In the afternoon between the Kershaw High school team and Camden ball team, the Kershaw boys were defeated by a score of 0 to 5, tHe game being ended before the ninth Inning, owing to the lateness of the hotir. - Pour of the runs made by Kershaw were gained In the lnnlnfc which <#ncluded the game. ?

JOHN 1SAKYMOKK In a Comedy of Romance and Adven ' (ure at The Majestic Today. "Nearly A King," one of the most novel screen comedies ever conceived, combined with screamingly funny situ ations, moments of tiio tendorost ro mance and scenes of gripping, thrill ing suspense. It is further distingulsh e<l by the fact that for the first time since his association with the screen, Mr. Barrymore interprets two charac ters simultaneously. Tin* fact that one is un American and the other a Prince, whose romance becomes con fused, adds to the Interest. In the end, however, each marries Lhe girl of his heart, but not until they have pro ceeded through the most startling and humorous series of trials nnd adven tures i>osKible to imagine.
