250 invitations were issued by Mr. and Mrs. L.H. Rinker for the marriage of their
daughter, Fly Ethel to Mr. Harold R. Nevins which took place Wednesday Nov 14 at 2:30.
The Rinker home near Brooklyn is one of the larges and most modern country homes int he
state and for this event was doubly attractive with the festal decorations of pink and
white carnations and roses throughout the house. Mrs. Lou Cragon played the wedding music
that preceded the ceremony, Miss Bernice Rinker singing "Believe Me if All Those
Endearing Young Charms," and Mrs. Hallie Gilbert sang, "O, Promise me."
For the entrance Miss Helen Robbins played the wedding march from Lohengrin during the
ceremony. Heart and Flowers. Rev. Carl Barnett, Indianapolis pronounced the ceremony.
Mrs. Allen Wylie, Bloomington was matron of honor, Mr. Allen Wylie, best man. The attended
were Miss Aileen Owen, Indianapolis, Miss Anna Record, Brookville, Herbert Fields,
Brooklyn; Murray Owen, Indianapolis. After the vo!
ws were exchanged the guests were served with a buffet luncheon of ice cream, cake and
punch, and congratulations were given in the parlors. A robe of oriental lace fashioned
princess style over chiffon and silk with veil of tule caught in the coiffure with sprays
of orange blossoms and the bouquet of bride's roses formed the beautiful costume of
the young and pretty bride. The quantity of silver, cut glass and chins with a variety of
other gifts for Mr. and Mrs. Nevins denoted a large circle of warm friends. Mr. and Mrs.
Nevins will be "at home" after Dec 1 to their friends at Rockville, Ind where
Mr. Nevins is well established in the furniture and undertaking business. Martinsville
