MISS McKRAY BRIDE OF MR. THOMPSON

Miss Bessie Edna McKray, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James McKray, and Mr.
Lewis Thompson, son of Mrs. Nettie L. Thompson, were married Sunday
afternoon, June 14th, at the First Christian church, in the presence of
members of the two families, and a number of friends.

To the strains of the wedding march played by Miss Georgianna Hussong, the
bridal party advanced to an altar decorated with baskets of flowers in a
color scheme of pink and blue, where Rev. W. R. Baird performed the
beautiful and impressive ring ceremony.

The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a becoming gown of
white crepe. Her tulle veil was fitted into a cap shape with a bandeau of
lace, and she carried a bouquet of pink and white sweetpeas. Her
bridesmaid, Miss Edna Hildebrand, wore a gown of pale apricot and white
crepe, and a corsage bouquet of sweetpeas.

Mr. P. R. Bateman acted as best man.

Following the ceremony, an informal reception was held at the home of the
bride's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. P. R. Bateman for members
of the bridal party and immediate friends, After the reception, Mr. and
Mrs. Thompson left for Klamath Falls where they will make their home.
