SAVAGE—ABBOTT
Ruth, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Abbott, of Devonport, was an attractive bride when she was married at the Gospel Hall, Devonport, this week, to Cecil Wilfrid, the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Savage, also of Devonport, by Mr. Thatcher. Her pretty wedding frock was of parchment-tinted crepe de chine and fallins- ; n attractive folds over it she wore a veil of fine hand-made lace caught with a circlet of orange blossoms. Pastel shaded pink blossoms and pure white ones combined their charm in her bouquet. The brides’ father gave her away and Mr. Allan McGaughey acted as best man. Miss Ada Rounds made an attractive bridal attendant in her gown of Betty blue taffeta with relief of ecru tone and pretty matching hat. A successful way to make transfers come out clearly for needlework is to wet the transfer first, then press on the material with a fairly hot iron. An excellent preventive against the stings of summer insects is to dab your ankles and legs with strong peroxide; make sure it has dried before putting on your silk stockings, or it may rot them.
