THE story of the marriage of Miss Viola Curtis and Clair Leverett Peck, solemnized last evening at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin A. Curtis of 812 Westlake avenue, reads like a pastoral, in that the vows were spoken in the perfect setting of a Southern California garden. The extensive grounds at the back of the Curtis home were canopied and in addition to the trees and growing shrubs and vines inclosed were potted palms and ferns lending their beauty. The Bride had chosen yellow as the color scheme for her wedding, and great sprays of blossoms in varying tints were used in profusion in a most attractive decoration, while myriads of electric lights shone brilliantly through shades of the same hue, and the house, where supper was served, was aglow With flowers of the same color.

The bride, wearing an elegant gown of white lace and carrying a shower of lilies of the valley, was attended by Miss Lillian Moore as maid of honor, and by Miss Florence Pollard, Miss Elizaboth Tyler of San Francisco, Miss Jessie Morgan and Miss Jessie Macleish. The four maids wore pale yellow gowns of soft silk and Miss Moore was in sea green satin, each young woman carrying a bouquet of yellow coreopsis. Donald Heinly stood with the groom and the Ushers included Messrs. Chester Moore, Walter Kelley, Sherritt Barkley and Leroy Edwards. The vows were pronounced by Rev. L. M. Idleman of St. Paul's pro-cathedral. A harpist furnished a program during the evening.

On their return from their wedding Journey Mr. and Mrs. Peck will be guests of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis until their new home on Harvard boulevard is ready for occupancy.
