\,&/ t

evening, June 29th, occurred the marriage of their daughter, Miss Veraa Olive Camp to Mr. Roy O. Hoehn of Gillespie.

On account of the serious illness of the bride's mother, the ceremony was quietly arranged, but was how­ever impressive in its simplicity and carried out in detail as had been arranged previously by the mother in the home. Loving hands of rela­tives arranged the beautiful decora­tions, and forwarded the plans orig­inated but left unfinished when sick­ness entered the home. The cere­mony was performed at eight o'clock beneath an archway connecting the library with the living room. Palms and ferns were banked on either side of the double doors, while the arch­way was outlined in Marguerites and Southern Smilax. Similar decora­tions marked the various rooms in the home. One especially pretty feat­ure of the decorations was the ar­rangement of the stairway. The banister was completely hidden be­neath a profusion of smilax and sweet peas, artistically arranged.

The strains of Mendelsohn's wed­ding march, rendered by Mrs. Ed. W. Camp, marked the approach of the bridal party down the stairs. The ribbon bearers, Grace Elizabeth Wall and Mildred Hoehn, formed an aisle through which the bridal party pass­ed. Varying from the usual custom, two tiny children gracefully served as ring bearers. The children were Roberta Paul Mead of Alhambra and Master Robert Hoehn. The attend­ants were Miss Grace Camp, sister of the bride, and Mr. Roland Hoehn, brother of the groom. Rev. Samuel Thero, pastor of the Methodist Epis­copal church, met the party at the archway and performed the cere­mony, employing the double ring ceremony.

Following the congratulations, light refreshments were served. Five of the bride's young lady friends, Misses Fern Panhorst, Edna Dripps, Mabel Courtney, Amalia Goehringer and Adda Westermeier served.

The bride and groom left at 9:25 for St. Louis, and later left on a boat trip on the Northern Mississippi river.

They will be at home to their friends in a newly furnished home in Gillespie after July tenth.

Mrs. John Camp, who had been ill for a fortnight, was taken to the St. Francis Hospital in Litchfield Sunday evening, undergoing a surgical oper­ation on Monday morning. With the best of medical care and attention, it is hoped that the lady will be re­stored to health-soon. While visitors are not allowed, hosts of relatives and friends linger near the hospital, waiting for news of the slightest im­provement in the condition of the estimable lady.
