Ferns were used to form the background against which baskets of handsome chrysanthemums were placed, and tall pedestals holding candelabra and lighted candles made the beau tiful setting for the ring ceremony which was performed by Reverend C. E. Peele. The nuptial music was rendered by Mrs. E. C. Rice at the piano, as sisted by Messrs. Osborne Freeland and Francis Thomwell of Green wood who gave several violin duets. These were followed by “Some where a Voice is Calling,” sung by Miss Cornelia Winn, and “Oh! Promise Me,” by Miss Louise Bracknell, The bridal chorus from Lohengrin was used for the processional and Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March” for the reces sional. “To a Wild Rose,” by Mac- Dowell, was played softly during the ceremony.

Next to enter was Miss Frances Langley, maid of honor, who was the only attendant of the bride. She was becomingly dress ed in brown triple sheer crepe with touches of orange, her hat and other accessories were brown, and she carried pale lavendar chrysan themums tied with white tulle. The bride, an attractive brunette, entered alone. She was never more lovely than in her swagger suit of brown wool crepe, with seal collar. Her hat was a small felt model with touches of orange, and her other accessories were brown. She car ried a lovely bouquet of pastelle yellow chrysanthemums tied with yellow tulle. She was met at the altar by the groom and his brother, Mr. Joe Brockwell, who served as best man.

The havoc a girl with big town ideas can innocently create in a small town*is amusingly portrayed in Paramount’s romantic comedy “Ready for Love,” which runs Mon day and Tuesday, November 19th and 20th, at Hollywood Theatre. Featuring Richard Arlen and Ida Lupino in the leading roles, the story is concerned with amus ing misunderstandings, dramatic complications and a fresh and breezy romance. Ida Lupino, as the girl, comes to Chetwattle Falls on the train that bears the mortal remains of the town’s most dignified hypo crite. Her arrival on the same train is pure coincidence, but the town’s gossips immediately deduce some connection. Then the editor of the local newspaper furthers their suspi cions and in a short time a totally innocent girl is branded as. a shameless hussy. More amused than dismayed by this strange turn of events. Miss Lupino proceeds to capitalize on her ready made reputation. Final ly the enraged housewives of the community, fearing unnecessarily for their husband’s safety, mob the girl. Richard Arlen, as the editor, is thoroughly alarmed now at tho possible danger to the girl. By an ingenious ruse he diverts the fe male mob. rescues the girl and the close of the picture finds these two happy in their love.
