The brides gown was white wolfe
trimmed with shadow lace, and she

simple.

The presence of some visiting girls
in town has been the inspiration of
few informal parties to mark an oc-
caSional red letter day on an other
wise colorless calendar. Practically
all the gadding that has been done has
been to the Country club for golf and |
tennis and motor drives to the country |
for family picnic parties in cool places. |

the least he must have served with the
Bulgars in the hand-to-hand fighting |
in the trenches when IL, 900 were kill
ed in thirty minutes. Collinson's face
is peeled from the roots of his hair
to the extremity of his chin. The eff
