      BRENHOLTS - MATTICKS

      Wednesday evening at eight o'clock was the hour when in the First Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. L.C. Sparks united in the holy bonds of matrimony Miss Marguerite Matticks, daughter of Mrs. David William Matticks of 202 West Church street, and Mr. Roy Brenholts, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Brenholts of Woodland avenue, Columbus.

      The ring service was used and the wedding was beautiful in its simplicity. Miss Pearl Bourner presided at the organ and at the appointed hour the bridal party entered to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, while the recessional was Mendelssohn's march. Mrs. Matticks gave her daughter in marriage and Miss Bernice Bates of Parlette, Ohio, cousin of the groom, was her maid of honor. Mr. Raymond Matticks, brother of the bride, attended the groom. Miss Matticks, who is one of Newark's most charming and beautiful young women, was a vision of loveliness in a white silk voile robe over white messaline with trimmings of Duchess lace and pearls and a full length veil caught in her coiffure with bride's roses. She carried a bouquet of bride's roses with a shower of swansonia and her only ornament was an exquisite gold necklace of amethysts, pearls and diamonds, the gift of the groom.Miss Bates was gowned in white chiffon over satin, carried pink sweet peas and wore a wreath of the same flowers, while Mrs. Matticks wore a dainty gown of white bastiste and Valenciennes lace.

      Following the marriage service the relatives and a few intimate friends of Mr. and Mrs.Brenholts were invited to the home of the bride's mother where an informal reception was held and a buffet luncheon served. The parlors were elaborately decorated with ferns, smilax, laurel and other spring flowers. When the bride's cake was cut the thimble was found by Miss Ruth Miller, the coin by Mrs. Williams, and the ring by Miss Bernice Hatch, who also was the fortunate recipient of the bride's bouquet. During the evening many congratulations and best wishes were given and received.

      Sometime during the evening the young people slipped away from their guests and entering Mr. Brenholts' White Steamer touring car started on a trip through Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. On Saturday they will join a house party at the home of Miss Gladys Taber in Araor, Ind., a schoolmate of the bride at Oberlin, and in the evening a dance will be given in their honor. They will then proceed through Michigan, visiting Gull Lake and many other points of interest, returning through Detroit and Toledo. They will reside for the present at the home of the groom's parents in Columbus and probably this fall will take up their home in West Virginia. Mrs. Brenholts' going away gown was a grey cloth Russian blouse suit with accessories of the same color.

      The bride was one of the most popular young women of this city's younger social set and has lived in this city all her life. She is a graduate of the Newark High school in the class of '08, and this past year was a student at Oberlin College. Mr. Brenholts graduated from the Ohio State University in '07 in the mechanical engineering department, is a member of the Iota Chapter of the Chi Phi fraternity and is also a member of the honorary fraternity for engineers, the Sigma Xi. He and his father are coal mine operators in the Hocking Valley, West Virginia and Kentucky. Mrs.Brenholts presented her maid with a beautiful topaz brooch, while the groom gave his best man a pearl scarfpin.

      Among the out of town guests present at the marriage were Mr. and Mrs. Irwin, and Miss Dorothy Irwin, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Brenholts, Miss ___m Smith, Mrs. Z. Williams, Dr. and Mrs. Woods, all of Columbus, Mrs. ___uhar and Mrs. Corbin, aunts of the bride from Zanesville, Misses ___ha and Bernice Bates of Parlette, Ohio, Mr. George Fairbanks of Springfield, Mrs. John Hoagwood of Mt. Vernon, Mr. Brown of Columbus, Mrs. Charles Adams of Parkersburg, W. Va., Miss Spencer of Granville, Mrs. A. K. Keller of Pittsburg, Miss ___rd and Miss Eva Brenholtz of ___esville.
