As readers of this column are aware I have been in Ottawa for the wedding of a granddaughter. Arriving at the home of my son, on the Monday prior to the Friday evening ceremony, family members were found in a whirlwind of preparations for that occasion, There was much coming and going on and necessary errands complicated by a birthday party for the bride-to-be the evening of my arrival, Imagine my embarrassment when I had to confess that the intended birthday gift had been left on a seat in the train and could not be found. The young lady thanked Grandma for the good intention with a hug and a kiss. Flurries of activity continued for the rest of the week. Thursday there was the dress rehearsal followed by a rehearsal party at the Ottawa home of the groom's sister. His family were a friendly cordial group. With his seven brothers all present, the ` married ones accompanied by their wives, it was not a dull party. Friday had everyone scurrying about. Guests were arriving. A hairdresser was coming to the home to do the hair of the bride, her attendants and the other ladies of the home. As the hours ticked away the bride became more nervous with last minute packing, checking repeatedly that everything was Alexanders "just so." She was the 'last to have her hair done, then dressed in her wedding gown and accessories, asking every couple of minutes "What time is it?" At last ready — a vision of loveliness. W e were off to the church. It was not an elaborate wedding for that was not the way the couple wanted it. It took place in a small country church with two six candle candelabra entwined with flowers. Guest pews were marked with a white, pink tinted, rose on white satin ribbon. My son gave his daughter to her groom. Their vows were exchanged with solemnity. There was soft organ music and a song by a male soloist. The reception was held in the Embassy W est Blue Room in Ottawa. A happy occasion with dinner toasts and speeches and the tinkling of glasses urging the groom to kiss his' bride which he did with zest. Twin brothers of the groom added a spice of fun in a skit of amusing anecdotes about the newly- weds, Dancing followed, There was grandma with her eldest grandson, trying to keep up with him in the gymnastics modem young folks call dancing. About 15 or 20 relatives and friends gathered at home after the reception for a visit together in the early morning hours. Sunday afternoon was spent at the home of my grandson and his wife along with other relatives. Monday morning it was "all aboard" for home. Exhausted! It was somewhat of a surprise there was no snow here at home for on Sunday morning in Ottawa we looked out on an inch of white. The evergreens were a picture postcard scene in their white mantles, Your forgiveness is asked for this very personal column. Being away and involved in all the happenings there was little else to write about. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.
