WHENEVER one fair belle makes
known her engagement In Port
land, there is sure to be a whole
flock Immediately following. The sur
prise Of the week Just ended was the
announcement of the engagement of
Miss Clementine Lambert . and Mac
Snow, and before society bad time to
recover from the flutter of excitement,
the marriage was solemnized.
Dr. Charles Prehn's wedding to Miss
Lucile Clay also was a surprise; it was
solemnized on Wednesday night, and
now society is on the qui vive for
news of the next engagement. It is
rumored that several more officers
stationed ax Camp Lewis will claim
some of Portland's fairest belles as
their brides before the first of the year,
while one or two will Join the ranks
of newlyweds at the Presidio in San
Francisco.
Two weddings that are of particular
interest to society are those of Miss
Winnifred Huber and Holt W. Cooking
ham, which will be solemnized at the
home of the bride's father on Decem
ber 19. and that of Miss Alice Smith and
Clarence Olmstead. which will be a
simple home affair also, at the home
of the bride-elect's aunt, Mrs. O. A.
Lyman, on Saturday.
This is a season of very short en
gagements, as well as a difficult one
to follow any plans that axe made, as
JZ. 7-77 s r-ifi y yicy
war orders are continuously interfer
ing. The big and varied Allied Bazaar,
representing 12 nations, occupied every
minute of the afternoons and evenings
of society and every person in. town for
practloally the entire week. It was
wonderful, every detail, from the gath
ering of all clans to tfaa assortment
of articles and edibles, assembled
in a maelstrom of vibrant, bubbling,
eager humanity to help the great cause
the soldiers fighting for democracy.
Thousands crowded and Jammed into
the big auditorium from the opening
to the closing night, and the costumes
were rare and marvelous. Some of the
women who were energetic workers
were attired in garments that were
colorful and highly prized, many of
them more than 100 years old. The
bazaar will long live in the memories
of Portlanders, and the Red Cross
workers will have a vast fund to draw
upon for some time to come.
One of the bright spots appearing on
the Horizon this week is the appear
ance of Anna Held, who will open In
the Heilig Theater Thursday night in
"Follow Me." This production, aside
from its value as a musical comedy and
diversion, has added value in the way
of gowns, a feature sure to appeal to
the women of society. There is a big
fashion review in which Miss Held
wears a marvelous creation her fa
mous 'peacock gown." It is a most
elaborate affair, and the costuming; of
the chorus in the fashion review also
wfil attract a large following of fas
tidious women of the city.

affair, with only relatives and closest !
friends attending. Miss Helen Wood

One of the prettiest weddings of the
season was that at which Miss Clemen
tine Lambert became the bride of Lieu
tenant MacCormac Snow on Thursday
afternoon The ceremony was sol
emnized in St. David's Church, Rev. A.
A. Morrison, rector of Trinity Church,
who is an old friend of the Lambert
family, officiating. The church was
simply but artistically adorned with a
profusion of white chrysanthemums,
palms and ferns, tall standards of
the blossoms banking the chancel, the
ensemble making a charing foil for
the hundreds of guests who attended.

plans were made hurriedly owing to
Lieutenant Snow's orders to report for
duty at American Lake on Monday.

gave her in marriage and she was at
tended by Miss Margaret Hewitt as
maid of honor and her brother, Joseph
