MISS MARIE DOYLE, who was installed last Saturday as president of the California Club Juniors and will hold office for the next year. Daughters of Pioneers Will Dedicate Tablet SUSAN SMITH NEVER HAS THE of St. Matthew in San Mateo been more entrancingly beautiful than on the occasion of the marriage of Isobel McCreery to Augustus Taylor Jr. last Saturday.

The altar was a profusion of white lilies. For background white stocks were woven into tall, pointed trees. At each pew, a column of the same sweet scented flowers was topped by a wreath. Delicate sprays of gypsophila lent their mistiness. Stateliness and dignity marked the entire ceremony, and as, at the end of the service, the bride and groom turned from the altar, both tall and with that poise which only fine physique and graceful carriage can give, there was never a handsomer couple.

FEW WEDDINGS have been marked by such perfection, both in the church ceremony and in the later reception at the house. Mrs. McCreery has a genius for planning and for supervising personally every minute detail: The McCreery estate was a fitting setting, with its noble, spreading oaks shadowing the lawns, its generous and spacious rooms, the sweeping terrace, which for this occasion was shaded by a golden-hued awning which was most flattering to all who stood beneath it. THROUGHOUT THE SUNLIT afternoon there floated impressions of delicious refreshments, iced champagne, women beautifully gowned escorted by men correctly dressed, strolling on the terrace or in the gardens, or stopping for a look at the shimmering silver of the bride's table, decked with white flowers. MRS.

M'CREERY'S thoughtfulness had not stopped with her preparations for her guests. A delicious feast was prepared for all those who in any way contributed to the success of her plans, and chauffeurs, policemen, maids and footmen toasted the thoughtfulness and graciousness of the hostess. AMONG THE VISITORS specially noted was the Hon. Mrs. Leigh, a relative of Mrs.

McCreery, who married the second son of Lord Leigh. Mrs. Leigh is the daughter of that General Gordon of whom we have read so much in "Gone With the Wind." Many were the chic women who graced this occasion. Mrs. Edward Tobin wore a handsome black gown with corsage of multicolored flowers, a large picture says of beige and black, and markably alluring slippers of different colors matching the colors in the corsage! MRS.

BERNARD FORD, in ashes of roses crepe, wore a large picture hat to match, and never appeared handsomer. Mrs. John Drum was lovely in black and white with a large black hat trimmed with white flowers which matched the flowers in her gown, and a silver fox cape perfected the beautiy of the ensemble. Never did Mrs. Robert Henderson appear lovelier than on this occasion.

In a gown of pale lavender with a large picture hat of a deeper shade, she was one of the most picturesque and most correctly dressed women present. ONE OF THE very handsome matrons was Mrs. Joseph D. Grant, in black, with a handsome fur over her shoulder. Mrs.

James Flood wore black lace and a large black hat with paradise plumes blowing in the breeze. Mrs. George Pope wore a crocheted gown of many-colored velvet, an effect, most unusual and becoming. Her grandchild, the youngest bridesmaid, in her dainty prettiness, reminded us of a little Edith Pope. Mrs.

Jerd Sullivan, all in brown, caught our eye as did the attractive toilettes of Mrs. Athol MacBean and Mrs. Edward Hills. IN FACT, WE SAW so many stunning gowns and ensembles at this brilliant affair, that we could go on indefinitely, cataloguing all the lovely details, but we are reminded that we have only so much space alotted us, so we must content ourselves with saying that the wedding of Isobel McCreery and Gus Taylor was one of exceptional beauty, and one which will long be remembered.
