Wife of Ariel Frederick Cardon
One of our dusky friends represented that he had just had a conversation with Ariel Cardon, George Torgesen and Chas. Hansen. Of course, they talked of marriage, and each was telling what particular kind of girl it is that he desires for his better-by-nine tenths. Ariel wanted his wife to be like a piano and in response to the inquiry “why” he replied because he wanted her to be both upright and grand.

WEDDING BELLS
A brilliant affair of the week was the wedding of Miss Chloe Smoot and Ariel Cardon of Logan, the marriage being solemnized in the temple during the day and a reception following in the evening at the home of the bride’s parents, Senator and Mrs. Reed Smoot at Provo. The lawns were lit with colored lanterns and electric globes and the rooms bright with the season’s flowers, while a number of friends assisted in entertaining. Many Salt Lakers went down for the event, including Gov. and Mrs. Spry, Senator and Mrs. George Sutherland, congressman and Mrs. Howell and others. About 200 were present.

The social event of the week was the marriage of Miss Chloe Smoot, the charming daughter of Senator and Mrs. Reed Smoot and Ariel F. Cardon of Logan, which was solemnized at noon Wednesday at the Salt Lake temple. The young couple were met at the station in this city by a merry crowd of young people with an auto decorated with streamers and banners and escorted to the home of the senator. In the evening a grand reception was given at the home of the bride. The lawn was brilliantly lighted with countless electric lights which were entwined with red and pink hearts. Here a large floor was built where the young people passed the hours in dancing. In the reception hall large bouquets of American Beauties added to the beauty. The parlor was artistically decorated with white and pink asters. A beautiful white horse-shoe of asters suspended with streamers of white satin ribbon against a dark background of ferns in the large bay window formed a beautiful alcove, where the young couple received their friends. The bride was charming in an elegant gown of white silk chiffon over white satin and caried a bridal bouquet. Miss Veda Dixon of Payson acted as bridesmaid and Guy Cardon as best man. The wedding presents were the most costly and beautiful ever received by a bride in this city. Among the out-of-town guests were Senator and Mrs. George Sutherland, Gov. and Mrs. William Spry, and Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Callister and Congressman and Mrs. Howell of Ogden. Mr. and Mrs. Cardon left Thursday noon for their home in Logan amid a shower of rice and the best wishes of a host of friends.

Alfred Pearce Dennis, in World’s Work
Senator Smoot will tell you that since he is moderate in everything else, he can afford to be immoderate in work.
His shoes never squeak, he never laughs aloud, never perspires, never cusses (beyond the intensives strictly permissible in deaconal and apostolic speech). He does not smoke or chew tobacco or drink anything stronger than ginger pop and sarsaparilla. In arts of expression, he believes with Edmund Burke in the strength of moderation, or what Jermy Taylor calls “the prudent endearment of moderate speech.”
Senator Smoot looks tired; he is tired. He bears the look of an aging man who became tired shortly after birth and has remained tired ever since.
He has few intimates. He’s lonely. He’s never been the same since the death of his wife some two or three years ago. He lives with a devoted daughter, Mrs. Chloe Smoot Cardon, in a big white house set down in a grove of trees some seven miles from Capitol Hill. And judging from the number of birdhouses the senator has set up in his backyard, he qualifies for all the Audubon societies in America.
Nature robs with one hand and restores with the other. Mr. Smoot, bereft, finds delightful companionship in his first great-grandchild. He makes big eyes and shakes a bony finger at this bit of humanity.
The wide open eyes of the baby, staring forth in blank wonderment at the universe, meet tired, wise eyes that look back across the chasm of the hurrying years. But they seem to understand and admire each other.
