ing a dainty dress of cream serge,

and cream silk ornaments. Her white
felt hat was trimmed with white
wings and pink chrysanthemums, and
she carried a bouquet ot pink chrysanthemums
and ferns, and wore a

in the drawing room, were unusually
numerous and costly., To enumerate
them, Mr. Editor, would make
too great a demand on your space.

Later in the evening, Mr. and Mrs.
Parker left, amid showe'rs of con-
tetti, for their new home In the Blayney

by the Rev. J. B. Penman in a compl'mentary
speech, and was suitably
acknowledged by the recipient As
