Dear Miss Grey: Cd I am TO
be married In June in my travel
ing dress. I expect to invite only
a few relatives to my wedding.
Will the newspaper announcement
be sufficient notice to our friends,
or should be mail printed an
nouncements to them? (2) Does
the bridegroom provide the flow
|ers, and what flowers would be
nice to wearf (3) Should we be
provided with visiting cards for
use on our wedding trip?
PEARL.
A.--(1) 1t would be nice to
send out announcement cards,
written or engraved-never print
ed. (2) The bride furnishes the
flowers. Roses for June we'd
dings. (3) Yes.
Dear Miss Grey: What do you
think of man who is distant in
manner and not at all Jealous of
the girl to whom he is engaged?
l have Just the opposite DISPOSE
ton. Don't you think there is
always jealousy where there is
love? ANXIOUS.
A.--To my mind jealousy can
not exist where there Is true
love. Jealousy implies suspicion,
self-love and lack of real merit
in the Jealous one. Try to over
come your inclination toward
jealousy. BY so doing you will
make your affection for your
fiance as pure and unselfish as
his love is for you.

DENY ALLEGED TALES
OF BAD BEHAVIOR

Two letters have been received bv
The Advertiser, one from the leader
of the Hawaiian quintet at the Atlantic
CITY Boardwalk exhibit and one from
H. F. Wood, botn indignantly denying
reports they claim to have been clrcu-
lated regarding the conduct Of the gum
tet while on its way east.
In the letter from +. j. Nlerra is
stated:
Having had charge of the Atlantic
CITY quintet on its way from Honolulu,
7 feel ii my duty to write this letter
and denv most emphatically certain sto-
rips that are being circulated IN Homo
lulu by one Edwin Rose. -.
s'The above named has taken the lb-
crtv to state that the members OF my
rartv were all drunk during our stay
in san Francisco last month,
ssThat statement is deliberate false,
hood The boys did not see him at all
during our stay there, nor dli they
care 10. for they are not in the habIt,
al associating with men of his type. ,
The letter from Mr.. Wood IS a hgh
testimonial to the behavior OF the boys
since they left. and he adds that Their
nerformances have been highly praised
Ev all who have heard them, from the
President down. He states that they
have been under his constant super
vision since their arrival on the Board
walk and have conducted themselves a.
perfect gentlemen.
