HAYJKES—FORSTER WEDDING
On Saturday evening, June 2nd,
at Sautee, Ga., an impressively
beautiful outdoor wedding cere¬
mony was performed when Miss
Lucile llawkes, niece of Mr. and
Mrs, T II. Allison, of Cleveland,
Ga., became the bride of Mr.’Wal¬
ter Forster, of Atlanta.
The bride was for some time a
student at Nacoochee Institute,
Sautee, Ga., where she graduated
in the class of 1926. An evening
dear to all Nacoochee students is
“Home Night,” which custom has
cstablised as the last Saturday
night of each school year. The
evening is spent by the Nacoochee
“family” on beautiful Vesper Ilill.
The bride had chosen “Home
Night” and Vesper Ilill as the
time and place for her wedding.
At her request, the evening was
planned as she had known and
loved similar evenings in other
years, wit 11 loved songs and poems
of the school and Valley ; Indian
legends with their picturesque
tents, costumes and campfires; and
the quiet, inspiring service of
praise and prayer which always
closes the evening.
No lovelier surroundings could
have been chosen for the sealing of
marriage vows. The Valley and
mountains, with their purple shad¬
ows of deepening twilight, seemed
to breathe a benediction.
For the group gathered upon this
particular June evening, interest
was centered upon the unusual
event which marked “Home
Night.”
Tie ceremony was performed by
Rev. J. K. Uoit, the superinten¬
dent of file school. Preceding it,
Floyd Tomlin, a Nacoochee stu¬
dent, sang, ‘‘But the Lord is Mind¬
ful of His Own.” Lohengrin’s
Wedding March was played by
Miss Martha Rhea Little, of Na¬
coochee Institute, as a processional.
The bride entered will) the
groom. She wore a frock or blue
taffeta, the skirt with overdrape of
silk maline. A large leghorn hat
was becomingly caught with velvet
ribbon bands and (lower cluster
She carried a lovely shower bou¬
quet of laurel. Lillie Miss Hen¬
rietta Allison, a cousin of the
bride, carried the ring in the heart
of a rosebud cluster. Little Hen¬
rietta wore a duinty frock of pale
pink georgette.
By tier earnest, unselfish life and
beautiful, lovable character, the
bride has endeared herself to all
who know her.
Mr. Forster is a young man of
sterling qualities. He is in busi¬
ness in Atlanta.
A number of guests from Atlan¬
ta were present, the father and
mother of the groom, two brothers
and several oilier relatives and
friends.
After a short wedding trip Mr.
and Mrs, Forster will be at home
in Atlanta.
