The Womanless Wedding skit
which took place at the Rising
Fawn School House Saturday
night was a hilarious affair. At
the last minute the groom, Asa
McMahan was jilted by his
proposed Pride, Donnie Me
““han. SUIIerKl a
attack of coid feet. f "' Not Not to t0 be be
left waiting at the altar, the
groom proposed to his prosp¬
ective mother-in-law, Broody
Hawkins who accepted without
hesitat i 0 n. In the meantime the
officiating parson, L. D. Fricks,
became doubtful of the legality
of the maria g e not desiring to
run a f 0U i the new Georgia
marr i a ge regulations which re-
quire blood tests from both
bride and groom neither of
wbom had on e, refused to per-
form the cer emony so W. C.
Cure t 0 n, Sr., was pressed into
serv i ce as a marrying squire.
A lovely musical program pre-
! ceeded the services. The New
England Quartette, Mrs. O. B.'
Aden E T Holmes, John War-
| | ren ren and Otis Brown with Evelyn
Riddle at its piano gave several
[groups of songs which were ap¬
preciated by the audience as
were those rendered by the lo¬
cal group, the Four B’s, Dewy
Bradford, Pat Baugh, Carl Brad
ford and J. Z. Bobo accompan¬
ied by Mrs. Pat Baugh, while
Miss Martha Gossett sang “I
Love You Truly” and “Always”
just preceeding the wedding.
Mrs. Milton Wilson, who accom
panied Miss Gossett, played
Lohengrin’s “Bridal March”
and Mendelsohn’s “Wedding
March.”
The flower girl, Ray Bobo,
wearing white shadow organdy
with green picture hat and scat
tering rose petals in her own
inimtable way preceded the
two beautiful bridesmaids,
Charles Holder,, who wore a
green taffeta dress, belted with
emeralds and rhinestones, and
Fred Harrison becomingly at¬
tired in red lace with cascades
of matching material down the
skirt. Both bridesmaids carried
arm bouquets of yellow bitter
weed and zinnias and wore pic¬
ture hats. The maid of honor
J. Z. Bobo was entrancing in
an off-shoulder model of white
taffeta garlanded with small
red roses and the wide hoop
skirt caught up in front to show
a petticoat of pleated American
Beauty chiffon, he also showed
his lace edged panties); she
carried dahlias showered with
bitter weed.
The bride and her father,'
Pat Baugh, who gave her away,
were met at the altar by the
?room and his best man, Bill
Cureton Jr. who were attired
in the conventional costume as
was Mr. W. C. Cureton, who
read the services in ringing
tones easily heard throughout
the auditorium.
Following the ceremony a
contest was held to determine
which of the four women of the
wedding party was the most at¬
tractive. This honor was won
by Fred Harrison.
The title of “Miss Rising
Fawn” was won by Miss Ruth
Wilson following a close race
with Miss Dixie Kezziah.
