SATURDAY, JANUARY 15, 1916. PAGE EIGHT LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER Secure Relief From Grippe and Cold This is the time of the year when cold and la grippe are very prevalent. A cold contracted now, and neglected, is very liable to "hang on" and by weakening the system lead to the development of a serious illness. ' REXALL COLD AND GRIPPE TABLETS is the best treatment they are guaranteed to give results, even when others fail. V : Putman's Drug Store Society Deios Fashionable church weddings aro rather rare in La Grande, hence a great deal of interest was attached to the wedding of Mercedes Horan, daughter of Mrs. Ellon Horan, now of this city but until a year or so ago a resident of Scranton, Pa., to P. A. (Pat) Foloy in Our Lady of the Val ley church last Wednesday morning. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Father J. P. Driscoll, who was as sisted by Rov. Father Brady, of Jen tura. During the bridal mass a, solemn ceremony of the Catholic church the bride was given away at the foot of the altar by her brother, John A. Horan. Miss Horan was ac companied by Miss Etta Foley, sister of the groom, as bridesmaid, whllo Jerome Foley of Walla Walla stood up with his brother. For the wedding, the bride wore a rich and beautiful traveling suit of brown broadcloth and she wore an at tractive white velvet toque. Her bridesmaid was dressed in gray broadcloth and wore a black picture hut with yellow plumes. - Our Lady of the Valley church thus saw its first matrimonial ceremony. For the occasion the beautiful new edi fice was very prettily adorned with beautiful flowers, especially the altar which was well banked with green carnations and smilnx. Preliminary to the saying of the bridal mass, the wedding music was rendered by Mrs. Melzler at tho organ and Prof. Haines, violin.' The church ceremonial ended, a .-IV. U J L JiflLmJ IN THE wedding breakfast was served to only the relatives of the participating couple. ' - It was not until evening, however, tlwt the wedding day took a truly pub lie nature, for at the home of the groom's siu-ants. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Foley, esteemed pioneers, the latch string was turned out and scores of intimate friends and acquaintances called to voice greetings and best wisheB. The informal atfair continued until the midnight hour -when by a clever ruse Mr. and Mrs. Foley boarded a diner waiting in the yards to be picked up by No. 19, and got out for Portland without the prover bial showers of rice from the crowd of several dozen ' which waited pa tiently at the depot for the couple to make their appearance. '' J ... The Foley home was extremely at tractive and inviting. Once more green carnations and smilnx pre dominated in the way of decorations. An orchestra played, and for several hours neighbors, friends and ac quaintances filed in informally to be received by the bridal party. At the raeoption the bride wore a' stunning creation of Nile green pussy willow taffeta, trimmed in silver lace and at this function the : bridesmaid was handsomely gowned in flamo taf feta. The wedding trip which the young folks have already commenced will be a pretentious one. They go first to California points, then to Salt Lake, Chicago, Scranton the bride's former home where they will spend some lit tle time then to New York, and final ly south to .. Jacksonville, Florida, thence westward and home again by the Southern route. Fully six weeks, it is expected, will be required for the trip. Mr. Foley, will of course, con tinue as manager of the Foley hotel, which business he has been engaged in for a number of years.

The La Grande ladies were freely praised at Baker, when . the Herald had this to. say of the lecturers: Several hundred Baker school chil dren gathered yesterday afternoon at the public library to hear an address "bv Mrs. K. V. Mossman on tne sub ject of "Humanity and Art." The speaker illustrated her lecture with colored slides, ft being a very instruct ive and beneficial afternoon for the children. Of that address a compe tent Baker critic said: . '' "Splendid meeting we had yesterday afternoon at tne cnildren's art lec ture. It was so very helpful and en tertaining and so unusual I feel that most of those present will always re member the pictures and talk. Mrs. Mossmnn was most happy in her way of dealing with the children and we are all deeply appreciative - of her kindness in giving the lecture. What an uplift there is in the study of pic tures, as some- one so aptly says: 'The best pictures are almost always a safe guide-board' pointing the way to a Palace Beautiful whose windows look out towards the delectable mountains.' I wish you both con tinued success." ; .-Theft i , ARCADE THEATRE Gladys Hanson, in imrosePath" SOCIETY CLUB NEWS.
