PRINCESS MARY'S WEDDING.
London, Feb, 29. Despite gloomy weather forecasts and much rain during the night, Princess Mary's wedding morn dawned brightly; and with the dawn a pilgrimage began. The route was crowded by seven in the morning, mostly women and children; but trama, busses and railways later brought, thousands and all were in the happiest spirits in the spring sunshine. The outlook from Buckingham Palace at ten in the morning along a mall of packed spectators was remarkable, and members of the Royal Family, including the bride, came to the Palace windows to gaze on the living avenue. Invited guests going afoot the Abbey found difficulty in getting through The dense crowds taronging, the precincts. Everywhere paple were waving Union Jacks, many of which were inscribed Long live the King." No vue found the waiting dull. Troops with their bands went marching by to take up their positions and there was a stream of motors conveying uniformed officers, officials and bejewelled ladies in wonderful costumes proceeding to the Abbey leng before the time fixed for the arrival of the Royal party.
Tremendous cheering greeted the almost simultaneous ap pearance of the Queen's procession from Buckingham Palace and Queen Mother Alexandra's from Marlborough House. The Queen was with her three sons in a glass coach and wore a bat of golden tissue surmounted by a plume of white ostrich feathers. She had a magnificent ermine cloak covering a costume of plain gold. The Queen Mother Alexandra wore a beautiful dress of gold and black brocade trimmed with old lace.
The bells of St. Margaret's crashed a merry peat on the arrival at the Abbey of her procession followed by the Queen's procession Ten minutes elapsed before the bride left the a minute later. Palace. The King in the uniform of the Grenadier Guards ten- derly banded his daughter into the carriage (known as the Irish Coach because it was built in Ireland), then took his seat beside her. The Princess was a vision of loveliness in a magnificent wed- ding dress. She looked pale but smiled happily in response to the tumultuous reception. Three carnages preceded and followed the sovereign's with a glittering escort. The crowd vented its enthu- siasm, unrestrainedly and many women were moved to tears.
Shortly before the Royal processins started. Viscount Las- celles left Chesterfield House in a closed motor var 'accompanied oy the best man, Sir Victor Mackenzie, both in the uniform of the Grenadiers. They were enthusiastically greeted. The gaiety alling the streets was redected even inade the Abbey, whose que tomary sombre prey was transformed into a spectacle of glow.ng colour.
A bright crimson carpet covered the stone floor of the nave and choir, ending at the sucrarium, where the wonderful colouring and ornamentations on the High Alter and masses of dimly burning candies formed a superb setting to the ceremony. Streams of sunshine through the windows played upon the lavish display of crimeun and gold braid, decorations and jewels worn by the very dis- tinguished representatives of every aspect of bie of the Empire.

hand restly lightly on the King's righ; arm. Wiscount Lascelles advanced and stood beside the Princess on the top steps of the sacrarium, then ten bridesmaids standing on the foot steps and the King slightly hehind the Princess, while the whole Royal party stood within the rails of the High Allar. The Queen, whose eyes were steadily fixed on her daughter throughout the ceremony, was with the other Royal ladies visibly affected as the Dean of West- minster began the ceremony with the opening exhortation.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, replacing the Deas of West- minster, donducted the service, the bride and bridegroom making responses in firm "foud vice. Both knelt during the final prayers. The Archbishop of Canterbury, addressing the pair. emphasised the fact that they were at present the very focus of interest and the prayers of millions of people worldwide. He believed that no daughter of a reign de King had ever bet.re been married at the Abbey. He referred to the war services of Viscount Lascelles, the services of the Princess in hospital, her leadership and disci
lined English girlhood, and included by bidding them God Speed on behalf of the Empire and people. There were renewed scenes of enthusiasm when the Royal procession returned through the streets.
A striking incident on the return from the Abbey was that the rear of cheering in Whitehall ceased when the people noticed the bridal pair halted at the Cenotaph. Princess Mary handed the Sergeant Major of the Guards on duty a portion of her weddruk bouquet of white chrysanthemums and lilles of the valley to place at the base of the Monument. Viscount Lascelles saluted gravely when the Sergeant Major laid the dowers without a card or inscrip- hon in the centre of the other floral tributes.
Beholders of the Abbey scene were more impressed by the family nature of the ceremony than even by the splendour of the spectacle. The final touch of this family aspect was given at Buckinghart Palace on the occasion of the departure for the honeymoon in Shropshire, the King and his sons standing at the exit archway in front of the Palace, while the guests polted the bride and bride- groom, as the open landat and four grey horses emerged, with rice and confetti. They did so with such vigour that both had to stoop low to avoid the onslaught, all laughing heartily. The Queen was not present but remained in the Grand Hall, where she just tear- fully bade farewell to her daughter. The route to Paddington was still crowded with spectators, who gave the happy couple a most enthusiastic send-off.
The King in the course of a message to the nation expresses his deepest thanks, for the warm and affectionate good wishes of his subjects throughout the Empire on this happy and memorable occasion. The goodwill of the people throughout the realm is appreciated. and the more vividly because many cre at present living in the shadow of the greatest hardship and anxiety.
The wedding special from Paddington to Shifnal was greeted with tremendous enthusiasm along the entire route. Whele popo- lations turned out tumultuously and cheered the passing train. All railway platforms and other vantage points were packed with waving throngs. Complete schools, boys and girls, assembled at some places. The special passed Leamington, Birmingham Wolverhampton stations slowly, enabling the waiting crowds to convey cordial greetings. The special accomplished a non-stop run arriving at Shifnal to the minute.~

The press devotes much space to Princes Mary's wedding, giving minute descriptions of the presents and dresses.
Marshal Foch, interviewed on the occasion, dwelt on the Eri- tish, Army's heroism during the war. He said it was fitting to recall tragic memories at a time when Britain, was proudly sound- Ling the praises of the Royal Family. He declared that all France was happy in its homage to the Blastrious House to which France's most faithful_friend Edward the Peacemaker belonged and of which King George and the Prince of Wales had gained her sincere affection.
