P. ARTHUR SORG'S FAMOUS TANDEM "TEAZE" AND "TANTALIZE." THE wedding on Wednesday of Miss Florence Battin French and Mr. Charles Edgar Newton, was a rather quiet affair. The Rev. Dr.

Charles L. Goodell, of Calvary M. E. Church, Manhattan, performed the ceremony which was held at noon, from the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Frederick De Mund MacKay, of 405 Grand Avenue.

The wedding was of particular moment to the Brooklyn contingent at Shelter Island, N.Y., where Miss French and her sister have spent practically every summer since their schooldays. Their parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. John Wesley French, were early members of the Brooklyn colony at Shelter Island Heights and year after year occupied their attractive cottage known as The Willows. Miss French, who inherits much of the dark beauty of her mother, made a strikingly handsome bride.

Her gown was an exquisitely embroidered affair of white chiffon satin and with this, in place of a veil, she wore a leghorn hat trimmed with willow plumes. Her bouquet was of lilies-of-the-valley and gardenias. Mr. Newton, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs.

Charles Edgar Newton, of 855 Prospect Place, was attended by Mr. Arthur Burton Newton, of Chicago, as best man. In the drawingroom the decorations consisted of a profusion of spring blossoms, while a curtain of smilax and quantities of white lilacs and sweet peas gave fragrance and brightness to the diningroom. Mr. and Mrs.

Newton will, until July, make their home at the Hotel Mohawk. has been the custom for some years, the Philharmonic A concerts by the Boston Symphony Orchestra next winter will be held on Friday evenings. The dates selected are November twelfth, December tenth, January fourteenth, February twenty-fifth and March twenty-fifth. To the delight of everyone Mr. Max Fiedler will again conduct.

The announcement of the dates so long beforehand is a wise one. The Symphony concerts are such important social events that large entertainments are not often held on the evenings when the orchestra plays over here. This early announcement will, therefore, do away with any possible clashing of dates. ACCORDING to the verdict of all who heard the concert Glee Club last week Friday evening it surpassed its usual excellence. In the gymnasium, where a dance was held after the concert, and in the chapel there were decorations of palms and smilax, the former place having the added touch of flags and banners.

To Miss Adele Marckwald, as president of the club, Miss Dorothy Wandel, the treasurer, and Miss Marion Thompson, chairman of the decoration committee, is due much credit for the success of the affair. The club under the direction of Mr. R. Huntington Woodman was assisted by Miss Annie M. Roth, soprano.
