Grif- fin at tha Mission Chapel of Epiphany Church, corner ef 12th and C streets south- west. The marriage ceremony .was per- formed by the Rev. Albert M. Hilliker, rec- tor of the mission. Notwithstanding the fact that the marriage was intend2d only to be witnessed by the immediate relatives and_close friends of the contracting parties quite a gathering of people was pres=nt. The bride is well known in musical circles and ts.also very popular among her host of acquaintances. After the ceremony the happy couple were congratulated. The bride received many presents from her admiring friends. Later a trip will be made to the home of the groom in South Carolina, The bride was handsomely attired. She was given away by her brother, Mr. William H. Prosperi. A most successful and fashionably at- tended exhibit of spring millinery was held Wednesday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Mattingly. The exhibit was given under the auspices of the Audubon Society, and the absence of the feathers of wild birds and aigrettes in the trimming of the dainty and beautiful hats and bonnets was @dnspicuous. Fine straw, chip, lace and chiffon, tulle, exquisite flowers, the finest of feathery ostrich plumes in white and gray, sparkling jet and brilliant steel and rhinestone ornaments, all helped to con- vince the ladies present that the use of aigrettes and dead birds is not absolutely essential to the,trimming of a bonnet. Mrs. Gary, wife of the Postmaster Gen- eral, entertained at a beautiful luncheon today in honor of several Baltimore friends. The table was daintily adorned with yellow tulips, and all the pretty accompaniments of the feast were in the same color.
