HELEN WILLS MARRIED.

COMPOSED, AS USUAL.

(THROUGH REUTER'S AGENCY.]

BERKELEY, Cal., Dec. 23. Miss Helen Wills and Mr. Fred Moody, were married in the pic turesque little chapel of St Clement at the foot of Berkeley Hills. The ceremony was very simple only the bride's and 'bride- groom's parents and the bride- groom's brother and sister-in-law' being present.

The honeymoon is secret, but is believed to be in a private yacht.

Miss Wills was very composed, at the service, which did not contain the word "obey."

The bride received hundreds of}] telegrams of congratulation from all over the world.

There were masses of beautiful flowers from friends and well- wishere.

7,000 MILES TO FIND A CADDIE.

WEALTHY GOLFER IN SEARCH OF A TYRANT.

Mr. Hugh S. Jenkins, of San Diego, California, has travelled morc than seven thousand miles with the sole abject of finding the! caddie who went round a Manches ter golf course with him twelve months ago.

Mr. Jenkins was for fifteen years Associated with Mr. Henry Ford at Detroit, and was for four years managing director of the Ford Motor Company in England.. He is a genius among motor salesmen, but is also a golfer.

Golf has its moments of sadness! when the outlook is a murky grey, and for months Mr. Jenkins, the golfer, has been facing just such an outlook.
