and more than one bride has had hys-
terics the day Of her wedding from no
other cause than that she was worn out
by the parties that had been given for
her, in addition to the confusion and
excitement always attendant upon a
wedding. Two or three affairs q day,
with visits to the dressmaker and house,
furnisher sandwiched in, is more than
even the athletic girl can stand. You
remember, or, perhaps you don't know
Of the Minneapolis couple who went to
a s%anitarium on their wedding trip be-
cause both the bride and bridegroom
were worn out by the pre-nuptial gale
ties and sensibly decided that they were
in no condition to enjoy an extended
"trip. 1t was a novel place to spend a
honeymoon, but they came back enthu-
siastic and rested.
The most important Of the many colo
NAL affairs which are sure to cluster
around Westinghouse birthday will be
the colonial assembly which the Mime
apolis chapter Of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution has planned for
Feb. 16. The chapter gave a, colonial
ball last winter at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. NJ. Griffith on Hennepin avenue,
which was one Of the prettiest affairs
of the year, for the men and women
were all in colonial costumes, and were
very beautiful and gallant. Just about
800 was raised thru the ball for the
Continental hall fund, which will also
be the beneficiary this year, and the
daughters are hoping to make as much
at the second gathering, which will be
quite different. The people will be in
colonial costume of course, but there
will be a program of music and recita-
tions and a number Of very attractive
features which are not to be told about
yet, in placetof dancing.
The plans for the junior ball, which
will take place Feb. 8, promise to be
unusually attractive. More money has
been contributed by the loyal members
Of the 1907 class, and q spirit Of real
enthusiasm has been aroused among the
committeeman. The decorations will be
in green and white, the class %colors, and
will be executed chiefly in potted plants
and palms and bunting. Electric dis
plays will be a prominent feature of the
scheme, and lights will be pendant from
the great steel rafters and festooned
along the walls in designs. The south
wing Of the armory, which Is now used
as a gymnasium, will be converted into
a supper room, appropriately decorated
IN the same colors as the main hall. The
Fort Smelling band will precede the reg
ular dance program with a concert from
8 to 9 O'Clock. It has been arranged
IN connection with the concert to pro-
vide reserved seats in the gallery around
the. floor Of the armory These seats and
the regular tickets will be placed. on
sale Monday at Voegeli's and at the
university book stores.
