UNDER AN ARBOR OF WOODBINE

MISS OLIVE SWISHER AND JAS. CHENOWETH WERE WED

One of the Prettiest of September Weddings-Will Reside in Oklahoma City

One of the prettiest of September weddings was that which took place Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. Mira Lowry, 503 East Liberty street, when her daughter, Miss Olive Swisher, became the bride of James Chenoweth, of Oklahoma City, Okla. Promptly at 8 o'clock the wedding party descended the stairs to the strains of the Lohengrin wedding march, played by Miss Marian Smith, and took their places in the front parlor under an arch of woodbine surrounded by palms and cut flowers. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. M. Gelston, of the Presbyterian church.

The bride looked very beautiful, attired In a handsome gown of white embroidered Swiss, lace inserted and trimmed with pearls. She carried a shower bouquet of white bridal roses. She was attended by her sister, Miss Edna Lowry, who wore a becoming gown of white over pink. She carried pink carnations.

The groom was supported by Willard Ditman, of Kenton, Ohio. Little Lucile Briggs, daintily gowned in white, preceded the wedding party, acting as ring bearer.

The house was tastefully decorated throughout. The parlors were pretty with palms and festoons of smilax and woodbine. Pink and white carnations were also used effectively. After the ceremony the guests repaired to the dining room, where a delicious lunch was served, Davy Robinson being in charge. Here the decorations were red and green, red ribbons, carnations and smilax being used.

The bride is a very charming and popular young lady. For some time she has been a pupil in the School of Music.

The groom is a graduate from the law department of the U. of M., having received his diploma in 1901.

At 11:25 Mr. and Mrs. Chenoweth left for a trip around the lakes. They will be at home to their friends after Oct. 10, in Oklahoma City, where the groom is engaged in the practice of law.

The out of town guests were as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Lowell Reed, Union City, Ind.; Mr. and Mrs. N. S. Meeker and daughter; Miss Ella Calderwell; Mrs. L. E. Chenoweth, Greenville, Ohio; Mr. and Mrs. T. LeRoy North, Palestine, Ohio; Mrs. Ira Swisher, Richmond, Ind.; J. W. Ditman, Kenton, Ohio; Mr. and Mrs. W. C.
