It Seems As If Summer Is Sort
 Of Hey-Ddv For the Rich
By DOLLY DALRYKPLE

that believe is a good one Why not let the rich and the poor alternate when traveling-the rich going one summer and the poor another? Or the rich going to the exposition one month and the poor the next? recall once it was with party of Americans in Europe, all of us seeking apartments in Latin-American hotel. There was a king of something or other along on that trip, and of all the fool wives I've ever seen anybody possess that king had her. When we inspected the rooms she simply couldn't abide them, and said with the most disgusting air:
 1T m not used to such things at home. couldn't stand it.
 We could have died. Plainly the in- ference was that we, not being the wives of King Somebody Other, could stand anything. It was one of the trials of be- ing modestly conditioned, and still in- sistent upon travelling. One modestly con- ditioned always has them. The thing to do is to be better conditioned and a sum- mer trip is right helpful in that way I believe half of the rich people in this country just have acquired their wealth because of their determination not to let rich people put 1t all over them in the good, old summer time. That Is their hey day. They seem richer somehow, and make everybody else seem poorer in the summer than any other season of the year. My motto is: Be the king of some thing The world is yours if you do. Any old kind of a king does, just so you're a king. I've learned that lesson this sum- mer."

GARTMAN-YEILDING
 WEDDING TAX ES PLACE

A wedding that will come as quite a surprise is that of Miss Josie Luta Yeild- ing to MT. James Thomas Gartman of Los Angeles, which was solemnized last even- ing at S:30 o'clock at the home of the brides father, MT $. M. Yeilding in Norwood, the marriage rites being read by the Rev. L. Stansell
 To the strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march played by Mrs Henry Leroy Yielding and accompanied on violin by Mrs. Carolyn Lee, the bride entered the living room with the groom, preceded by little Addie Morris Yielding, niece of the bride, as ring-bearer. There were no other attendants. The bride was very charm- ing in gown of real lace over duchess satin, the veil being made cap effect and caught back with the conventional orange blossoms. She carried an arm bouquet of white Killarney roses.
 The house was decorated for the oc- casion with southern smilax and ferns. the improvised altar being built of ferns, palms and white roses. The guests in- cluded only the immediate family and a few intimate friends. an informal recep- tion being held immediately after the cer- emony.
 MT. and Mrs. Gartman will make a tour of the west, visiting many points of in terest, including San Francisco and San Diego, and will be at home after August 6 at 205 North Alma street, Los An geles.
 Mrs. Gartman is a charming young woman with many lovable traits, and it is with regret that her friends learn her marriage will take her away from Bir- mingham. MT. Gartman is well known throughout the west, holding a responsi- ble position with the Southern Pacific railroad.

 west" she continued, "beQause of seeing so many rich people. They are thicker than iddlers on the beach. They have the best of everything, everywhere. believe me. I was recounting my experience to a friend the other day, and he laughingly said:
 DO you feel that way, too? I'm so glad because I certainly do. Recently I took trip to the West Indies, and there was a gum king aboard. The gum king made one of the popular brands of chewing gum which Is chewed everywhere. He had the best suite on board the ship; every body was kotowing and salaming to him. he was the cynosure of all eyes; he ab- solutely ruined the trip for me. He didn't know a West from East India, but when he strutted out on deck there was such jingle of dollars in his pockets that 1t must have started every pirate in his grave from Key West to Terra del Fuego The rest of us just made up the gal lery for the gum king. It was case of Here comes the gum king, and 1t made me tired. He was the whole show and of all the kings I ever saw he was the very worst, but not so to that crew aboard the ship. He had everything in the palm of his hand. He made Dodo look like an alderman"
 The woman stopped her narrative long enough to catch her breath, and then she said:
