Venice Theatre Elide Story By DOUGLAS Lawrence A. Miner ATTORNEY AT LAW Christmas MALLOCH (Copyright.) CHRISTMAS wedding ta always a very charming thing. The holly lends such gayety to the decorutlons, and the mistletoe seems so appropriate. Then it makes do one - present where otherwise two would have been required. And anyone who brings that to puss Is a public benefactor. Tills reference to the wedding, of course, right here at the very opening of the story, really makes the story superfluous, which is Boatonese for "no use." In a story, the wedding Is supposed to be the very last thing. Hurry was a young architect and engineer who had only Just opened an office m the town. When he came out of college he reached the conclusion that ho would do better to set up a business In some a mull town and grow up with It than to grow old unnoticed in some older town. That Is how to be here. He met Harriet soon after his arrival and it wasn't long he was desperately la love with her. There really wasn't very much the mHtter with Hurry except Hurrlet And there wasn't anything at all the mutter with Harriet in Hurry's opinion. So, after he had got down to business both at his office and with Harriet she said "yes.'' Their marriage brought them a great deal of happiness, and, what wus more a greut deul of happiness to someone who wasn't related to them In any way. Which Is what the story is about This other person not only was not related to them, but was known to them. She lived la the other end of town. Elm avenue runs right through the town from eaat to west. At one end, the west end, it is well named, for It is bordered by stately elms that shade fine residences, and cozy bungalows, like that which Harry had provided for Harriet, planned with the architect's , best thought. It hud been arranged that they were to be married at high noon on Chrlst-tna- a day at Harriet's old home. Then there was to be a quiet family dinner there, followed by a reception to their triends at Harriet's new home, where open house was to be kept in honor of I he day and the event. There their friends gathered In the afternoon, and there the presentation was to occur. For Harry's young men friends, of whom there were a few despite his short residence In the town, and Harriet's, of whom there were more, had decided to give them. In addition to 11 the "little stuff." one practical gift So they had of larger proportions.
