Wedding Bells.
CLARK—EDWARDS St. Matthew’s Anglican Church, Morrinsville, was the setting for the pretty wedding on Wednesday of Miss Winifred Edwards, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Edwards, of Tauhei, and formerly of Te Poi and Cambridge, and Mr. Allan Clark, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Clark, of Hamilton road, Cambridge. Archdeacon Gillespie performed the ceremony, and Mrs. Gillespie played the wedding music.
The bridegroom is widely known as superintendent of the" Matamata St. John Ambulance Division, and the bride is a sister of Mr. L. C. Edwards, superintendent of the Morrinsville St. John Ambulance Division.
The bride, who was given away by her father, looked charming in her bridal gown of white Chantilly lace over white satin, which was made on slim-fitting lines and with a slight train.

She wore a wreath of flowers in her hair, and carried a shower bouquet of pink sweet peas, roses, cyclamen and maidenhair fern. The best man was Mr. Ken Clark, cousin of the bridegroom. As the bride was leaving the church she was presented with a silver horse shoe by her little niece, Valerie Edwards. At the reception a feature of the bride’s table was a handsome threetiered wedding cake, which had been iced and decorated by a very old friend of the family, Mrs. A. Hooper, of Cambridge. The guests were received by Mrs. H. Edwards, who wore a becoming gown of black silk marocain relieved with beige, black silk swagger coat, black straw hat, and carried a posy in autumn shades.
