The bride wore a gown of em- broidered net, and her veil of tulle and old point lace formed the train. She carried a shower bouquet of ivory roses and lilies-of-the-valley. A Colonial note was carried out in the attire of her attendants. The matron of honor, Mrs. Ross Utley, and the bridesmaids, Miss Katherine Shaw, the groom's sister, Miss Dor- othy Rose of Wilmette, Miss Ellen Stryker and Miss Ruth Vivian of Ravenswood, and Geneva Eddinger of Winnetka, wore gowns of yellow and green, and carried Colonial bouquets. Gertrude Schryver of Evanston, the little flower girl, wore a yellow satin frock and carried a basket of pink rose petals. Little Dicky Nelson of Ravenswood, the ring bearer, wore a quaint old-fashioned suit with long white linen trousers. Ewart Cook of Wilmette served as Mr. Shaw's best man, and Mayland Challinor, brother of the bride, A. M. Mayland, her uncle, Ross Utley, Ed- ward Winchell and Dick Hamby were ushers.
