      On October 4, at Picton Church, a host of friends gathered to witness the marriage of May, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. Wimbridge, of Picton, to James Carruthers-Gibson. of Bassendean, formerly of Scotland.

      The Rev. Father O'Grady officiated. The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her father, was tastefully gowned In a frock of beige georgette pintucked and inlet with matching lace, with shoes and stockings to tone, her hat being of beige Bangkok straw relieved with a cluster of tangerine berries. She carried a bouquet of golden shaded nemesia and Iceland poppies.

      Miss Frances Wimbridge (sister of the bride) attended as bridesmaid, gowned in a dainty frock of pink and mauve georgette ankle length, with shoes and stockings of pink. Her picture hat of lacy straw was trimmed with clusters of mauve and pink rosebuds and she carried a sheaf of wistaria and lilac

      Mr. Riordan (Greenbushes) carried out the duties of best man. After the ceremony the mother of the bride received the guests gowned in a frock of black and white morocain with hat of black chip straw. She carried a posy of violets.

      The Rev. Father O'Grady presided at the breakfast, and Mr Poat, of Picton, proposed the health of the happy couple. Numerous telegrams were read, the usual toasts honored, and the beautiful wedding cake cut, after which the bride and groom left by car for the metropolis.

Her close fitting black rochelle straw hat was relieved with clusters of red berries and velvet. The future home of the happy couple will be at Bassendean
