WEDDING OF INTEREST

SIMPSON—SALAMAN The marriage of Mrs. A. W. M. Salaman, of New Plymouth, to Mr. Kwong Simpson, late of Auckland, now of New Plymouth, was recently celebrated quietly at the bride's own home in New Plymouth. The bride wore a fawn frock of Chinese material, chung-sue-sum, and a beige straw hat and Chinese accessories to match. She was attended by Miss Asher Salaman, who wore a frock of blue sue and hat to match, and carried a bouquet of orchids and asters. After a reception at the house the bride and bridegroom left for Palmerston North to make an extensive tour of New Zealand by air. As Mr. Simpson is well known throughout the Dominion, considerable interest will attach to the Chinese reception which will be given the bride and bridegroom on their return to New Plymouth, where they will reside.
