A very pretty wedding took place

of Mr. Jacob :Bruxer of McKillop,
Res-. Father ,O)Drowski, P.P. sang
the Nuptial High Mass with full
choir in attendance. As She bril-
liant sunshine streamed through the
windows, the pretty young bride, at-
tired in coral pink georgette with
• rhinestone trimmings and softly veil-,
ed hat, entered the church with het
father, who gave her in marriage. A
"large sheaf of Killarney roses com-
pleted her dainty costume. She also
carried a beautiful prayer book, the
gift of her father. Miss Helen De-
laney, as bridesmaid, .wore a frock of
spring green georgette and silver,
daintily harmonizing with the ed$-
ttune of the bride. Her hat was a
pretty sbade of sand, She carried a
large bouquet of carnations in pastel
shades. Mr. Harry IBruxer, of Spok-
ane, Washington, assisted his broth-
er. Mr. John McQuaid and Mr.
Maurice Dalteu acted as ushers. At
the close of the Mass the celebrant
extended hearty greetings to the par-
ents of the bride, whose twenty --fifth
anniversary occurred on that day. All
the children received Holy Com-
munion with their parents, and the
bridesmaid and groomsman of twen-
ty-five years ago were present at the
Mass. After the ceremony the bridal
party and guests, numbering sixty,
returned to the home of the bride's
parents where the wedding diener
WKS served. The dining _room was
lovely in mauve and white and six
cousins of the bride waited on table.
The bride's travelling costume was
navy georgette with a 'becomitig coat
and hat. The groom's gift to the
bride was a necklace of pearls, to the
bridesmaid an onyx ring, and to the
groomsman gold cuff links. The day
was enjoyably spent by all, Violin
and piano furnished the music, and
greatest care was exercised to see
that none was wasted, till five in the
morning, when the guests departed,
wishing the bride and groom and the
:elver jubilians continued happiness
till the present celebrations be re,
placed by the silver and golden, Fol-
lowing a honeymoon of several days,
Mr. and Mrs. Bruxer will reside at
the groom's, eine home in McKillop.
