A PRETTY WEDDING
Miss Bertha M. Wilkendorf Becomes Mrs. August V. Hucke Sunday Afternoon
A Festival Wedding Feast and Much Mirth and Music Accompany the Marriage

A very pretty wedding took place at the residence of Mrs. Wilkendorf, near Plainfield, Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Her eldest daughter, Miss Bertha M. Wilkendorf, was given in marriage to August V. Hucke, of Dunnigan. The ceremony was performed in the presenceof a large number of guests, by Rev. Endter of the German church.

The decorations were elaborate and very elegant. Smilax constituted the principal feature, tender branches finding places in every available spot. There were enough of other materials used, however, to heighten the effect. The solemn vows were exchanged under a canopy of smilax; a veritable screne formed by intertwined streamers of smilax studded here and there by varid colored flowers.

Miss Rhoda Maxwell played the wedding march, to the strains of which the bridal party entered the room and took their positions. The bride was attended by her sister, Miss Agnes Wilkendorf. Both were attired in handsome tailormade gowns, the bride in tan and the bridesmaid in gray. The groom and his best man, John Hucke, a brother, both wore black. During the impressive ceremony music was rendered. It was a pretty feature: these four young people, with faces aglow, with pride and happiness, standing against the background of smilax, with the minister between them, and it was equally as impressive.

After the customary congratulations all repaired to the dining room, where the decorations were also of an extensive order. The whole room was draped in white bunting, upon which smilax had been fastened in graceful form and design. Large tables groaned under loads of delicacies. There was almost every dish imaginable, appropus of the occasion. It was a wedding feast, such as use to grace the boards of the fathers in the Fatherland. The tables were also nicely decorated. A merrier company never sat down to do justice to such a feast. For full two hours they feasted and made merry, the conversation interspersed with mirth and music.

The happy couple were the recipients fo a great many handsome and useful gifts, such as will come in handy for housekeeping. They will reside o a ranch near Plainfield, not far from the home in which they were wed, to which they will return after a honeymoon trip spent in San Francisco.

The bride is a charming young lady, one of the most popular of the community in German society circles. She is intelligent and accomplished, amiable and loving; a bride her husband can well be proud of, and he is a young man who will appreciate his good fortune. He is strong and young, with plenty of ambithion and strength of purpose with which to carry his aspirations into effect. He has been successful so far in life and will no doubt continue to be so if perserverance and good will can bring it about.
