The bride looked lovely in a white silk dress with insets of lace and leg-'o-mutton sleeves also of white lace. The bridal couple walked to the top of the room where they sat down at a table prepared for them over which hung a bell of asters. Mr. Tam Yik Tong acted as the best man and Miss Kwok Wai Fun as the bridesmaid.
After the ceremony, when all the guests had taken their places at the

And favor for Buick has increased year after year, until to-day more people choose Buick than all ten other eights in its price range combined, and nine out of ten say they will buy BUICKS again: A motor car has to be better to compile such a record over a period of thirty years.
