utante of a year-and one of the pret-
tiest of many year-Miss Hawes ap-
peared to find but little pleasure in the
feverish round of teas, dances and din
ners. A girl of travel and study, life
seems to hold more for her than the
mere passing of it in a social whirl-
hence the choice of quiet career in the
cozy rectory at Redwood with the man
of her choosing.
The wedding will be an evening af-
fair at Grace Church and the dainty
little bride will be served by her cou-
sin, Miss Elena Observation-Disclosures
dainty maid.
Another Easter bride will be Miss
Mary Turnbull, the stunning young
woman who passed up society to take
up the study of medicine. With per-
severance that follows but few smart
set maids who set out for a career,
Miss Turnbull pursued her course in
the East with a dogged determination
and won her degree with honor.

who has won her. The wedding takes

Every Easter brings US brides. just
as it brings us Bermuda lilies and new
bonnets-au of which are equally lovely
and wholly indispensable to a progress

less dispensable, perhaps. than the
lilies and the-no-I cannot bring my
self to eliminate the irnfs fsortance of the
bonnet. I cannot.
What would an Easter be without
onei
One might as well ask children to
have an Easter without colored eggs.
But as for the propensity Of maids
TO evolve themselves at Eastertide into
brides-the most mystic and exquisite
entity that womanhood knows-that is
a custom in unity with the laws of ma
ture. Of the church and of society.
To begin with. Easter always comes
10 US when the hills are clothed in the
garments Of spring: the fields and hill
sides are ablaze with the cup of gold"
and the luxuriant lupine, and the warm
earth IS ihrobbing with the unrest Of
growth.
Above bur windows the sparrows are
nesting, and love, love, love-" is
chirped in uneeasing cadenzas-it Is
mating time for the little brides.
Then why not for us?
And as for the religious side Of
it, there is in the story of the
day a beautiful promise of hap
piness, il the ascent into the world
OF soui-duality. There seems to be
something prophetic in the day-a
beautiful theory that sometimes does
make good. But why destroy an illu-
sion?
AS to the social reasons for the prop
sgation of the Easter bride, they are

propinquities, many a chap has awak-
ened to find himself in tune with ma
ture and afame with love. Then
come the sweet, unbusy hours of Lent.

Briggs and C. P. Nelson will show
their water color work, and DR.. Arnold
Genth will display his Mexican photo
graphs-all Of which promise to be very
interesting.
Then the club will have as it's special
guest of honor Charles Warren Stod-
dard-he who has wandered back to
the home of his childhood. That is
enough for one night and may there
never be dull night to follow.
At last pretty Bernadette Robinson
succumbed to the mad alteration of
those Italians. We all felt that she
would, despite her protestations to the
contrary. Lured by the charm of
Rome and the adulation lavished upon
her by the army officers, the charm
ing San Franciscan was 10th to come
home.
Who can blame her, when the
world knows what an adorable lover
the Italian can make-at least he does
on the stage. 1t seems, however, that
the chap who has won the Titan
haired maid is a capital fellow, lieu
tenant in the army, and is not of the
impoverished brood of most of his fell
lows; that in spite of his title he is
worthy chap. 1t is not thought that
Miss Robinson will return before her
marriage, and perhaps never.
Therein is the unhappy phase OF an
international marriage-one or the
other must yield UP a home. 1t is be-
lieved that Mrs. Robinson and Mrs.

funct Citizens National Bank of ODER
