DONNELL-ALLEN.
A very pretty wedding lhat crealed much interest among a large circle of relatives and friends, was that of Miss Dorothy Allen (daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. A. Allen, Cintra, Corinda) and Mr. William Stewart Donnell (son of the late Mr. A. B. Donnell and Mrs. Donnell, Croydon. South Australia). The ceremony took place at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church on March 26, which was prettily decorated for the occasion with arum lilies, asters, and white roses. Large brass vases of bridal asters and arum lilies decorated the communion table, while the guests' pews were defined by trails of asparagus ferns tied with while bows and streamers. The bride, who entered the church with her father (who subsequently gave her away) wore a very dainty wedding frock of petal pink hand embroidered georgette with which was worn a lovely honiton lace veil arranged with a tiny coronet of orange blossoms,
