Hiss Mai Fare Works a Popular Young Lady of This
City Is Joined in Holy Wedlock to Mr. John
Willis of Hugo I. T.
The city of Amarillo has never
witnessed a more beautiful cere-
mony than was performed last
night when Rev. C. N. N. Fergu-
son pastor of the Methodist church
united in marriage Miss Mai Fare
Works of this city and Mr. John
Willis of Hugo I. T. In the page-
antry with which men and women
like to surround these &olemn
rites the wedding was perfect.
The bride popular from her girl-
hood in this city was never more
lovely and the groom though not
so well known here was by the
freemasonry of "all the world loves
a lover" the favored friend of all
who made his acquaintance. The
girl friends with their escorts
completed a picture of youth beau-
ty and high hope.
Long before the arrival of the
wedding party the church was
thronged. The wedding colors
green and white had been elabor
ately used in the hangings which
made a secluded nook of the choir
alcove for the musicians. Potted
plants palms and festoons of smil-
ax made a setting of rare beauty.
In front of the hangings was a
floral horse shoe secured to the
sides and ceiling by long streamers
of white ribbon. The section of
the church in front of the alcoye
were set apart with festoons of
smilax for the relatives of the
bride and groom.
At half past eight Mrs. Horace
Gooch at the piano and Miss Mamie
Trigg with violin accomparimept.
struck the sweet clear notes of
"All For You." For half an hour
they rendered selections from
Cavalleria Rusticana UTrovatore
and others. At nine o'clock the
ushers spread streamers of white
canvass down the aisles to the
vestibule and the musicans struck
into the opening strains of the wed
ding march from Lohengrin. Then
preceded by the ushers two by
two Messrs. Terry Thompson W.
A. Smith B. C. D Bynum George
Works R. P. Yancey and W E.
Freeman the groom entered on the
arm of the best man Mr. Hughes
The ushers arranged themselves in
semi-circle and waited the coming
of the bridesmaids Misses Kate
Wijliams Bernice Russell Jean
Blackburn Floride Ware Lutie
Wood and groom's sister Miss
Willis followed by the bride and
Maid of Honor Miss Trulie Works.
The bridesmaids ranged in front
of the ushers the groom met the
bride at the head of the aisle and
standing beneath the great floral
horse shoe while the musicians
rendered softly "The Angels
Serenade" they spoke the words
before the Rev. Ferguson that
made them man and wife. The
musicans then started the trump
hant strains of Mendelssohns wed
ding march and the bridesmaids on
the arms of the ushers led tn
party down the aisle and out of
church where carriages were in
waiting to convey the party to the
brides home.
COSTUMES OF THE WEDDING PASTV.
The bride wore a princess gown
of white radium silk over taffeta
with lace. The veil edged with
lace was caught at the brow witn
orange blossoms and swept in
filmy folds over her shoulders to
the floor.
She carried a brides boquet of
white carnations and lilies of the
valley. The Maid of Honor Miss
Trulie Works wore white organdie
with lace ruffles and a wide green
girdle she wore a wreath of white
carnations and carried a boquet of
sweet peas. Miss Willis white or-
gandie with lace and a green girdle
and wore a wreath of smilax.
Miss Russell white chiffon or-
gandie with a lace waist.
Miss Williams white organdie
with a lace waist and tucked skirt;
Miss Blackburn white flowered
organdie with ruffles; Miss Ware
white over silk with lace insertion
in the skirt; Miss Wood princess
gown.
All the brides maids wore wide
green girdles add wreaths of smil-
ax. The brides favors to the
brides maids were gold hat pins
engraved M. W. The ushers wore
evening suits and white gloves.
After the ceremony the brides
parents gave a delightful home re
ception to the bridal party and the
young people friends of the bride.
The wedding colors were used
throughout the house in white
streamers and festoons of green.
Over the doorway from the recep-
tion hall was a large W in white in-
cadesdent lights gleaming out from
a heart of smilax. In the punch
room streamers of white intertwin-
ed with smilax united in a beauti-
ful silk shade in the center of the
room; under which was the punch
table presided over by Miss
Juanita Travis. '' -
On tables around this room were-
the bride's presents. In the dining:
hall were festoons of smilax united'
at the center in a white bell over-
laid with roses and in the center
of the table underneath was the
handsomely decorated bridal cake-
During the evening musio was dis-
cursed which well fitted the laugh-
ter congratulations and high spir-
its of the party. The refreshments
for the evening were brides cake
and ices the latter in the form of
brides roses in the wedding colors.
Near the close of the evening's
pleasure the bride cut the cake
and after her each girl in turn tried
her fortune for the hidden good
luck pieces. Miss Lutie Wood
captured the ring which according
to the . old yet favorite legend
makes her the next bride. Miss
Lelia Maynard became the owner
of the needle and according to the
same old legend will spend her life
in single blessedness. It was a
lite hour when the many guests
gave their last congratulations
bes' wishes and farewells.
The wedding gifts received by
young couple speak much for their
esteem among their friends. Spark-
ling cut glass hand painted china
art silverware and costly bric-a-brac
with the many other gifts of
hindsome furniture and rugs will
help the young bride in making her
home. Mr. and Mrs. Willis left to-
day via the Denver for their future
home in Hugo I. T. Mr. Willis is
a prominent young lawyer of that
city and has a host of friends who
will give him and his bride a hearty
welcome to their new home.
