Of wide interest was the recent wedding of Miss Virginia Winthrop, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Winthrop of Wharton, and George Vogt, son of Mrs. George Vogt of Schulenburg, which was solemnized at the First Episcopal Church in Wharton on Friday evening, March 6, at 8 o�clock. Rev. Goodrich read the marriage vows in the presence of the immediate family. Striking simplicity in the decorations lent a note of usual charm to the occasion. Pedestal baskets holding profuse arrangements of fragrant spring blossoms outlined the altar space where the bridal party gathered for the pledging of the vows. Miss Blanche Winthrop attended her sister and the groom was attended by Erwin Gieptner. The bride was attractively gowned in a spring creation of powder blue crepe with contrasting accessories of eel grey. Her shoulder corsage was fashioned of delicate tinted rosebuds. Mrs. Vogt is a graduate of the Wharton High School, where she was a favorite among the members of the young social set. She later attended the State Teachers College in San Marcos where she received her certificate several years ago. She taught in the public schools near Wharton for several terms and the past session has taught at Creole, near Ezzel. She is a talented young lady and is known for her sweet and loving personality. Mr. Vogt is known and admired by his many friends here for his personality and sterling character. He graduated from the Schulenburg High School with the class of 1929, later going to Sugar Land where he was employed for several years. He later moved back to this city and assumed part ownership in the Magnolia Service Station here. Following the ceremony, the young couple left for a brief wedding tour to Galveston, after which they will be at home to their many friends in our city.
