Carew-Madison. During our sojourn at New York at the Seventeenth Annual Convention we learned that our Brother James Ailen Carew has at last surrendered his fraternity pin to Miss Doress Madison of Albany, New York. Brother Carew's social career has been varied and full of all vicissitudes that may come in that of a social elite. His coming and passing is just as dramatic as the coming and passing of Arthur, so lucidedly characterized by Tennyson in his "Idyls of the King." Brother Carew is a graduate of Syracuse University and a Freshman in the College of Law at Yale I'nivrrsity. Miss Madison is a Junior in the Syracuse College of Liberal Arts. We feel that the couple is an ideal one, each suited for the other. They have the fraternity's most sincere regards for a bright future. Gibson-Brewer. • The Chicago Defender for January IS, 1025, carried the following account of the wedding of Brother William M. Brewer to Miss Mary M. Gibson of Washington : A romance of college days culminated in the marriage Wednesday morning, December 24, at 8 A. M., of Miss Mary Matilda Gibson, daughter of Mrs. Mary Syphax Gibson of this city and the late Malachi Gibson of Baltimore, to William Miles Brewer, son of Mrs. Robert Brewer of Elberton, Ga. The ceremony was performed in the home of the bride, 1010 Fairmont Street N. W., in the presence of a few relatives and friends, by the Rev, Francis J. Grimke, who united the bride's parents in marriage. The bride, who wore a tunic dress of blonde crepe de chine and a hat of sand velvet, was given in marriage by her mother. She was attended by Dr. Dorothy C. Boulding, who wore a dress of havanah satin ami a brown velvet hat. J. W. Seabrook of North Carolina was best man. V. B. Spratlin of Denver, Colo., cousin of the bride, played the wedding march by Mendelssohn and "At Dawning," by Cadman. Mrs. Victor Daly and Miss Breda Moryck assisted in serving the small company, after which the couple left for Elberton to spend the Christmas holidays with the bridegroom's mother on the Brewer farm in Georgia. The bride is a graduate of Radcliffe College and the bridegroom of Harvard. Both are instructors in Dunbar High School of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Brewer will be at home after January 4 at 1010 Fairmont Street N. W. Moore-Moss. Tuesday, January 27th, was the day set for Brother Earl Moss of Alpha Phi Alpha Chapter to become the proud husband of Miss Maxine E. Moore, beautiful and talented daughter of Mrs. Emma More of Chicago. B-other Moss is a graduate of the Cincinnati College of Pharmacy. He is a natural-born musician and plays many instruments with efficiency and ease. He is now a member of the famous orchestra of Brother Sammy Stewart. Miss Moore has received much praise and commendation for her abil'tv as an interpretative dancer. We hope that this couple will get much music out of life in their new status.
not man put asunder." Matt. 19 :6.
Taylor-Hughley. Word comes to us from the "Bean City" that another brother has disagreed with Kipling and planned to ally himself with the West. Brother John W. Huguley of Harvard University is the proud wearer of the Delta Sigma Theta pin of Miss Helen A. Taylor, erstwhile of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, and now the Executive Secretary of the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W . C. A., Denver, Colo. Miss Taylor is a graduate of Tuskegee and Fisk, while Brother Huguley is a candidate for the bachelor degree in Chemistry at Harvard. He made an excellent record at Tuskegee and Lincoln, and is now a candidate for the degree with distinction at Harvard. Randolph-Foster. The happiest man at the Seventeenth Annual Convention was Brother A. L. Foster. He is a gentleman who is unusually pleasant and companionable; but when he was seen in New York City during the holidays he seemed to have been converted to some powerful religion. That was right, as we found before the Convention was over, for one of the prettiest girls in the East had converted him. Miss Mildred Randolph of New York City is his new religion. She is a student at Columbia University and one of the most popular girls in New York City. Miss Randolph is a charter member of Rho Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority and was very active as one of the hostesses during the Sorority Convention during the holidays.' Brother Foster is a member of Kappa Chapter and of the Lambda Boule of the Sigma P i Fraternity. He is widely known throughout the country and has rendered some valuable service as a social worker. He is at present serving very efficiently as Kxcrufive Secretary of the Canton, Ohio, Urban League. Their wedding bells will ring in June, we rirlrrstaiid. -. Murphy-Young. Brother Laurence T. Young of Phi Chapter gets the girl with the prettiest smile in Maryland. She is Miss Rebecca L. Murphy of Baltimore, the niece of our own Brother Carl J. Murphy, Editor of the Afro-American Weekly. Miss Murphy has been wearing Brother Young's pin since last summer, but has in some mysterious way kept the news from the S P H I N X . At last we got it on them, though, just like we are going do soon to some other would-be dodgers. Like Brother Foster, above, Brother Young surely did enjoy the Seventeenth Annual Convention, for this charming girl of Baltimore is now his "raison-d'etre." Brother Young is the nephew of the late Paul Laurence Dunbar and now a Senior in the School of Commerce at the University of Athens. Come on, Brother Young, you are going to have a chance to use all of your commerce and finance. And you have our best wishes, both of you. Richardson-Isaacs. One of our alumnae brothers of Upsilon, Lloyd Isaacs, who is now attending school in Los Angeles, Calif., recently announced his engagement to Miss Olga Richardson of Kansas City, Mo. Brother Isaacs has been separated from his beloved by the distance from Kansas City to Los Angeles for some two years, but evidently Cupid pays no heed to such small factors as time and distance. We wish them much success.
