KITCHENS-EUBANKS.
The most brilliant wedding of the
season, marked by beauty and perfec
tion in every detail, was solemnized
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. F,
Kitchens on Wednesday, June 12th,
1918, at 1:30 o’clock, when they gave
in marriage their beautiful daughter,
Frances Joan Kitchens, to Dr. Henry
Grady Eubanks—thus uniting two
prominent southern families.
The guests were graciously receiv
ed at the door by Mrs. J. M. Jackson,
and each registered in a beautiful
bride’s book presided over by Mrs.
Lewis Cherry. It was of white, daint
< ily hand-painted in water-colors with
garlands of pink roses, by the bride’s
mother. The entire lower floor was
decorated in pink and white sweet
(peas, pink roses, and ferns. The spa
cious rooms transformed into a verit
able bower of floral beauty, made a
fine setting for the ceremony which
was performed in an impressive
manner by Father Keenan in the
presence of a large gathering of rel
atives and intimate friends.
Stately palms, and ferns, were ar
ranged about the walls and massed
on the altar at the end of the rooms
beneath arched windows; flanked on
either side by tall seven branched
candlesticks,—filled with lights of
white tapers which softly gleamed
Avar all T 1/nnf c z^-p i+Q ■frnll.a
stood out from among the greenery
while great white baskets, filled with
pink roses were artistically placed
about the room and library. The bal
astrade was entwined with southern
smilax which ended under an im
mense bow of pink tulle. The sim
plicity of perfect taste in the decora
tion, lent dignity, as well as charm.
The loveliness of the young biide,
who was given in marriage by her
father, was enhanced by her hand
some gown of soft ivory satin with
over-drapery of rose point lace from
shoulder to hem. The bodice, a wide
girdle, with net and lace over the
shoulders. Her veil, a cascade of rose
point lace over the sweeping court
train, was caught to her hair by a
coronet of Orange Blossoms. It was
confined on either side with clusters
of Orange Blossoms, and fell in misty
folds the length of her train, A
string of exquisite pearls encircled
her throat. White satin slippers
showing tulle rosettes centered with
orange blossoms, peeped from be
neath her satin skirt. She carried a
colonial boquet of Bride roses, valley
lillies and ferns.
Just before the ceremony, Mr. Rob
ert Gorton, Jr., sang, “Because I Have
Chosen You”—his beautiful tenor
voice filling the rooms with melody.
Mr. R. B. Campbell played the “Brid
al Chorus” from Lohengrin, and as
the full rich chords were sounded, the
bridal party descended the broad
stairway, at the foot of which the
groom and his attendants awaited
them. Dr. Morris Henry served as
best man, and “Happy” Kitchens,
brother of the bride, as groomsman
entering in the following order:
First the briesmaid, Miss Frances
Happel, (Greenville, Miss.), who was
joined by the groomsman. She wore
«i mAum A-f ninV AvannHip nvpr
pink silk, with lace trimmings, a pic
ture hat of pink Milan, and Dresden
roses, and carried an arm boquet of
Killarney roses. The matron of hon
or, mother of the bride, with Dr. Hen
ry, the best man, was charmingly
gowned in a model of cream princess
lace over cream silk with broad gir
dle of ftile green satin. She wore a
a picture hat of cream Leghorn, and
H carried an arm bouquet of pink Kil
lamey roses. Then, the graceful lit
tle flower girl, Edwynne Gordon,
clad in pink swiss over pink corded
taffety, a wreath of tiny French
roses crowning her head, from which
fell a veil of pink tulle. She carried
a French basket of pink, filled with
flowers of the same hue, and scatter
ed roses in the pathway of the bride,
who entered on the arm of her father;
her long court train borne by two
charming little tots, Bettie Bush and
Ernestine Berton, wearing dainty
frocks of white ruffled organdie pi
coted in pink, over pink taffeta, bo
lero jackets of pink silk.
The bridal party, passing through
the aisle outlined by broad white
A satin ribbon, and tall white baskets,
it that held gorgeous pink roses and
ferns grouping themselves about the
altar made a vivid picture of exceed
ing beauty. The priest in his robes,
the flowers, the lights, the soft under
tone of music, the fair young girl,
looking as if she stepped out of a
dream in her bridal attire, bringing
with her all the stately loveliness of
those, for whom “Knighthood brave
ly flowered.” So trustingly, tenderly,
giving her life into the keeping of
the man of her choice. He, stalwart,
and brave, eager to fight Life s bat
tles for her.
The bride, who is unusually charm
ing and accomplished, was born and
v reared in Helena. Her beauty, and
I sweet personality, united to her fine
f traits of character, and her kind
heart, have endeared her to innumer
! able friends, both old and young. All
j who know,—love, and admire beauti
ful Frances Kitchens. Since her de
but, she has been considered a decided
belle and beauty, in the social world,
and has been t!5e recipient of many
elegant pre-nuptial affairs.
The groom, formerly of Columbus,
Mississippi, has recently made his
home in Helena, where he stands
abreast with the men of his profes
sion. He is a brother of Mr^. Morris
Henry. His genial manner, and true
worth, have won for him a host of
friends. He has the distincton of be
ing first lieutenant in the Dental
Reserve Corps, and is waiting to be
called to the colors in the service of
his country. The number, and ele
gance, of .the beautiful presents evi
dence the popularity of this young
couple.
After the ceremony, delicious
punch was served by Misses Frances
Powell, Mildred and Mabel Henry.
Truly "No sweeter draught from
fairer hands was ever quaffed.”
A beautiful wedding cake resting
on a starri of white flowers, consist
ing of fragrant bride roses, valley
lillies and sweet peas, was cut by the
bride, the silver thimble falling to
i her, and the ring to her cousin, Miss
Nell Graves, of Memphis.
The bride’s going away gown was a '
Hickson model of dark blue foulard
silk and Georgette Crepe with collar
of white filet lace. She wore a small
close fitting hat of dark blue straw,
trimmed with uncurled ostrich.
Her brown gloves and brown Oxfirds
harmonized perfectly with her mod-1
ish costume.
Dr. and Mrs. Eubanks left on the
afternoon train in the midst of a
shower of rice and good wishes, for
an extended trip, and will be at home
on their return at 826 Beech street.

A TRUE STORY V
f K'fV' ■
In a certain section of the state of Louisiana a colony of Belgian farmers located several years
before the present war. Many members of the peaceful and happy little colony had left relatives
and friends in Belgium, and when prosperity began to come, thoughts of visiting the land of their
birth and the loved ones left behind, were uppermost in the minds of many.
Among these was a family of four—father, mother, son and daughter—a devoted family, edu
cated and refined. In the summer of 1914 it was decided that the mother—a comely woman on
the sunny side of 40, and the daughter, should"make the long hoped for visit, and the two arrived,
safely in Belgium, according to a letter written at that time.
Then the horde of Prussian brutes over-ran and devastated that country, and no further word
wras heard by the anxious husband and father from these two innocent and helpless women, then
American citizens, for two long years, then the brokenhearted man received the following note,
smuggled through in some manner by way of Switzerland:
Ir' “My Dearest Husband:
‘‘For many weary months I have sought means by which I might commun
icate with you, and the hope that I might succeed has caused me to remain alive
Our poor child is already dead—died by her own hand, to end a life of enforced
shame and degradation too' horrible for human voice to express.
“We were enslaved by these German beasts in human form, and when
our bodies were no longer useful to them on account of the horrors of loathsome
disease, we were forced to perform the most menial tasks, even to the plucking
of crawling insects from their reeking and filthy naked bodies.
“My own darling husband, you will now know—if you have not already
guessed—why I can never hope to return to you, and long before this reaches
our .own adopted America—if it ever does—I shall be dead.
“Say to our boy that I know he will join the army in France, and that his
mother will pray with her last dying breath that the Almighty God will so
strengthen his arm that he can in some small measure avenge the things done
by these vultures in human form. I pray that we shall all be joined again in the
great Beyond, where things like this can never be.”
Devotedly yours_
