A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING
Nuptial of Mr. Frederick A. Avres
and Miss Move Chrystinc
McDermolt.
T,lie old saying, that one of the hap
piest days in young life is the union
of two hearts at the altar of God. This
axiom was beautifully illustrated at the
Church oi the Holy Rosary last Tues
day morning, when Mr. Frederick A.
Ayrs, ono of the highly respected young
men of Alliance, was united in marriage
to Miss Mayc Chrystinc McDcnnqtt,
beloved daughter of Mrs. Mary Mc
Dermott. Ptcpurations for the marriuge wore
complete in every detail and nt the ap
pointed hour 9:30, the bride, escorted
by her mother and maid of honor, ap
peared at the church entrance, and to
the strain of Mendelsohn's wedding
march, by Miss Leah Kraemor, ap
proached the sanctuary. They were
joined at the altar by the groom aud
escorts who woto in waiting in the sac
risty. The bridal party took their
place directly at the foot of tho altar,
where the pastor, .Rev. Father Julius
Devos, in vestments of his office, stood
ready to perform the marriage cere-
mouv. I lie bride, attired 111 a dress ot
white net over white silk embroidered
with bride's roses and white veil, was
conspicuous, and the natural dignity
and womanly grace she bore, made her
the center of attraction. Beside her
to the right stood the groom, neat and
trim iri a Suit of conventional black.
To the left of the bridal couple stood
the maid of honor, Miss Lois Ayres,
sister of the groom, who wore a dress
of white chiffon trimmed with Irish
point lace, white chiffon hat, and car
ried a boquct of white carnations. Be
side the maid'of honor was Miss Nellie
Owens.bridcsmaid to her bosom friend,
neatly clad in white organdie over pink
silk, with white chiffon hat. Miss
Owens carried a beautiful boquet of
pink carnations. To the right of the
groom was the best man, Mr. Glen
Hampton, and Mr. Jos. Reardon, who
bear evidence to the marriage compact.
Immediately back of the bride stood
her mother who was to give away the
precious jewel of her life. Assisting
Father Devos were Harry Reardon aud
Jos. O'Connor as acolytes.
The bridal paity was a beautiful il
lustration of a Catholic gathering sur
rounded by all the accompaniments of
mother church. As the pastor be
gan the solemn marriage ceremony in a
low tone there was complete silentc in
the edifice and only the chirping of
summer birds that flitted about m the
morning sunlight mingled with the
voice that was uniting the lives of two
young people even beyond the grave,
as He Himself, the giver of life, has
said. The bridal ring was carried to the
altar by little May Newberry, and the
blessing of this holy seal was completed
while the tiny hands of the little girl held
it aloof. Tho responses of the con
tracting parties to the marriage vows
were plainly understood throughout the
church and wete in a tone of firmness
and sincerity.
Following the ceremony, Father De
vos, in well chosen Kvords, reminded the
newly married couple of the import
ance of the sacred vows taken, and the
blessings God will shower upon them
if they remain faithful to his covenant.
Immediately following the nuptial
services, a special nigli mass was
offered up and with it was bestowed
all the blessings that radiate from the
holy sacrifice. And thus concluded one
of the most impressive marriage cere
monies ever witnessed in Holy Rosay
church.
After mass the bridal party was
driven to the home of the bride's
mother, where the wedding breakfast
was onjoyed. .
A reception was held in the evening
from 8:30 to 11 o'cloqk, when the young
couple mot and received the congratu
lations of a hundred or m&re friends.
Wedding cake was shared by all.
During the young folks' gathering
about the bride, she tlnew away her
beautiful bridal bouquet and in the
wild scramble to get the lucky prize,
Miss Jack Bohn of York,- Neb., was
winner.
Numerous costly and handsome pres
sents wore recofved by the young
couple.
Mr. and Mrs. Ayros lett Wednesday
morning via Denver to spend their
honeymoon at the soa shorn gardens
of California and will also visit at the
Portland exposition.
Quito a number of young friends ac
companied the couple to tho train and
judging from the snowy appearance of
the walk that lends from the bride's
home, theie must havo buon a liboral
throwing of rice.
It is with pride that wo congraulate
Mr. and Mrs. Ayros in their happy
union, and the good wishes of a host of
friends will accompany them through
life. Mr. Ayros, as a responsible em
ploye of the Burlington system, has
the confidence of all, and his bride is
a beautiful flower of womanly refinement.
