CEDRUS altar by the groom,(Miss Mildred Carle), the best man, Mr. Sarah Rumbaugh, the minister, Mr.Carmen Frazier, ushered in by Messrs. Chance and Marshall. Amid jeers, comments, and coarse laughter the ceremony commenced. The Rev- erend Gentleman, realizing the momentousness of the occasion, exerted all his oratori- cal powers and, though having to pause a number of times to await silence, he con- cluded the ceremony and pronounced the couple husband and wife. With a sigh of thanksgiving the friends and relatives realized the intruders had failed to make good their boast. Evidently they were catering to the inner man—they had been promised dinner upon good behavior. The friends extended the couple hearty congratulations. The would-be despera- does expressed the intention of kissing the bride, but apparently theylacked hte boldness they had at first assumed. A delicious dinner of creamed chicken, mashed potatoes, creamed cauliflower, silver and gold salad, Angel Food cake, offee was served. (Score one for the visitors. They stole the ice cream.)
