Miss Eunice Harper Becomes the Bride of Mr. Paul Holland Leonard. A very pretty wedding took place Thursday afternoon at the home of the bride,when Mi38 Eunice Harper, youngest daughter of Mrs Edwin Harper,became the bride of Mr Paul Holland Leonard of Reidville. The parlor, where the marriage took place,was very attractively decorated with Southern smilax, ferns and white roses, the ceremony being performed under a double arch of smilax and roses. Promptly at 5:30,to the strains of MenHplscinhn'R wpHHinff march. Dlav ed by Miss Mabel Harper, the bridal party entered. Mrs B G Land as dame of honor came in first, followed by little Miss Gene Taylor bearin? the ring in the heart of a large white lily. Then as the groom and his best man,Mr T M Leonard, came in at one door, the bride and her maid of honor, Miss Floride Harper, entered at the other and all met at the altar, where Rev G T Harmon performed the ceremony, using the beautiful and impressive ring service. The bride,who is exceedingly pretty and attractive, was never so pretty as on her wedding day. Her brunette beauty was strikingly set off by her simple but elegant wedding gown of white satin with court train, and her filmy veil of tulle becomingly arranged. She wore as her only ornament a diamond biooch, the gift of the groom. To complete her toilet she carried a huge bouquet of bride's roses. The maid of honor, in yellow satin and net, and the dame of honor, in white satin, each carried an armful of pink Killarney roses and ferns. The ringbearer, attractive little Gene Taylor, appeared almost fairylike in her dainty white organdy with butterfly sash and hair ornament of white tulle. Only the relatives of the young nnnr.lo orifl o woni foar nlnsp fripnH? were present. Immediately after the ceremony an old-fashioned dinner was served in the dining room,which was attractively decorated in pink and green. Later the bride and groom left for a short trip to Richmond, Washington and Baltimore. Upon their return they will reside at Reidville. The bride is a graduate of Winthrop and has taught in the State for several years. The groom is a successful young merchant and business man of Reidville. 1918 Calendars "Mother's Love" is the title of a very handsome art calendar given out by the Steele Furniture Co.
