In brief and fitting words the bride and groom thanked their friends for the numerous and useful gifts with which they had been honored. After speeches from a number of those present, the happy couple were showered with confetti from the wedding bell. A dainty lunch was then served and the remainder of the evening was spent in games and dancing, the merriment continuing until the wee hours. The address read as follows: Dear Ina and Gordon,- We, a number of your friends and neighbors, have assembled here tonight to extend our hearty congratulations on your recent marriage and to convey out best wishes for a lifetime of peace, prosperity and happiness together.

Marriage, blushing little lady, Is Love, sunny path and shady, Over which two hearts shall wander Of each other growing fonder.
