Nor is it to be bandied about by the long-hair ed squirts who have caught Mr. Roosevelt’s ear and made a game of great national concerns. Spectator does not declare himself on the Gamer wagon, or on any other wagon. He isn’t looking for a job; nor does he wish to appear as a great political figure; he does declare that he is ready to do his part to de feat any of the royal favorites who may aspire to the presidency. All I An interesting event of Christmas day was the marriage of Miss Beat rice Dorothy Kennerley of Wilming ton, Deleware, and James Henry Davis of this city which took place at the home of the bride’s aunt, Mrs. Authur Leitzsey in the county. The ceremony was performed at three o’clock in the afternoon by Dr. J. W. Carson in the presence of relatives and close friends of the couple. In the hallway, an improvised altar was arranged with a background of white satin covered with smilax. Sil ver vases of white carnations and snapdragons were on the altar and on either side burned white candles in candlebra. A white satin cover ed prayer bench was placed before the altar on which the couple kneel ed for the closing prayer. Other dec orations in the hell and receiving room consisted of pine, pine cones, and holly. Prior to the ceremony, Mrs. E. T. Marshall of Wilmington, Deleware, sang “Because” and “I Love You Truly”. Fred Bouknight of the city accompanied her and played the “Bridal Chorus’ from “Lohengrin” for the processional. Robert Kennerley, brother of the bride, lighted the altar candles. The bride and bridegroom entered the room together. The attractive bride was dressed in a stunning two piece powder blue suit trimmed in wine velveteen with a blouse of tuck ed white chiffon with lace inserts and tiny white pearl buttons. She wore a small wine colored hat and other wine accessories and a shoulder corsage of white carnations and lilies of the val- ! ley. Mr. and Mrs. Francis John Ken nedy. parents of the bride, enter tained at an informal reception fol lowing the ceremony. Miss Macie Davis was receiving in the reception room and Miss Nell Davis invited callers into the dining room. The bride’s table was center ed with a three-tier white iced wed ding cake topped with a miniature bride and groom. Other decorations used about the room carried out a white and green color motif. Burning white tapers furnished a soft light Serving block ice cream and white iced cakes were Miss Catherine Ken nerley, Miss Faye Davis, Miss Har riet Leitzsey, and Miss Vinnie Kate Leitzsey. Presiding over the bride’s register in the gift room was Miss Frances Kennerley. Slices of the wedding cake attrac tively wrapped were given as favors. The couple left after the reception for a wedding trip and upon return ing to the city this weekend will make their home at 2009 Mayer ave nue. Mrs. Davis is the second oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Kennerley of Wilmington, Deleware. She attend ed the School of Designing for Girls in Philadelphia. Mi - .

How nice it would be to celebrate a week for Christmas instead of just one day. But the bad part is the awful let-dwn feeling after all presents have been opened, friends and rela tives have gone home, and the tree “Merry the Mothers Club and the American another Legion Auxiliary, becomes more pop getting plar and more want to share in its presentation. After several years of ho'ding the Tree exercises, those in charge have so worked out plans that no children are omitted and every thing goes about in an orderly and systematic way. Of course none of this would be without hard-working women who see that every child has taken down and decorations put away | presents and every needy family has Everything is rather quiet around | plenty of food for a bountiful Christ- town and no exception in social hap penings. Of course we could write about the things that happened dur ing the holidays. -And the first thing that comes to mind is the us ual Christmas weddings. Taking place on the holiady itself was the wedding of Bea Kennerley of Wil mington, Delaware, and James Henry Davis of the city. It was a small af fair, taking place at the home of the bride’s aunt, Mrs. Authur Leitzsey, mas dinner. Christmas Cards There were many lovely Christmas cards out this year. Most of us had to buy what we could find and send them on as we were in such a hurry with other things. A few in the city, however, sent out beautiful personal greeting cards . . .
