some places the "wishbone" wedding has
become the correct thing. The couple
stand beneath floral wishbone. Aiterthe
ceremony the bride and groom are given
he wishbone to pull. The tug results in
break somewhere, and whoever holds the
long piece is absolved from getting up TO
build fires in the morning, We throw this

Presbyterian church, Dallas, Texas. Re-
Ception after the ceremony at 10 Olive
street" We tender our acknowledgements
for the fully appreciated invitation to be
present on the happy occasion, which can
4 be marred only by the thought that our
