By Celia Myrovsr Robinson
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

One of the prettiest weddings of
the summer was the al fresco wedding
of Miss Ruth Holley and Mr.. James
Fletcher Covington, which was sol
emnized at the Baptist pastorium at
Jeffersonville, Ca.
The decorations were beautiful and
effective throughout the house, blue,
white and pink hydrangeas and frag-
rant magnolias, intermingled with
delicate ferns and stately palms, were
used in profusion in the parlor, Ii
brary and hall.
The ceremony was impressively
performed by Rev. ]. Bowman Hol-
ley, father Of the bride.
The columns and balustrade were
completely covered with smilax, while
beautiful porch boxes in full bloom,
together with tastefully arranged
pot plants and cut flowers made the
porch resemble garden of loneliness.
Before the wedding Miss Hamer,
of Bennettsville, S. c., accompanied
by Mrs. w. H. McCrary on the piano,
sang in her rich contralto voice two
numbers, 30 Promise Me" and my
Hearts Long Dreams of You," an ex-
quisite intermezzo from "Cavalleria
Rusticana." Mrs. McCrary then
played the wedding march to the
strains of which the bridal party en-
tered. During the ceremony "Hu-
moresque" YVES softly played.
The dainty little figures who pre-
coded the bride were the little flower
girl, Miss Leila Mae Jones, and the
little ring bearer, Master Carey Walk
er Shannon. Miss Jones carried a
basket of pink flowers and strewed
them in the path of the bride. The
ring was carried in an Easter lily.
The bride then followed on tho arm
of her cousin, Miss Ethel Smith, OF
Camden, S. c., and was met at the
improvised altar by the groom and
his best man, Mr.. William Wanna
maker Bates Of Orangeburg, S. C.
The bride was never prettier than
in her wedding gown of white en-
broidered Georgette crepe over white
tafeta, the only ornament worn by
the bride being an exquisite necklace
that belonged to her paternal grand
mother. The brides bouquet was
Bride roses and lilies of the valley.
Miss Ethel Smith, the maid Of
honor, was most beautiful in a fluffy
dress of white embroidered net trim
med in satin ribbon. She carried an
armful of pink gladioi.
Immediately after the ceremony
the bride changed her gown for 9

mings, with which she wore lovely
ivory colored hat, shoes and gloves
and amidst the most cordial COCO
wishes, Mr.. and Mrs. Covington left
for an extended northern trip.

man Holley, and has a large circle OF

without a word. Her little flame of
duty-filled life went out in a second.
An artery broke on her tired little
brain, and the knitting mill worker
lay dead on her neighbours doorstep,
dead of overwork at Is. The plate Or
the soap box at the corner the next
day was a silent appeal of neighbors
for pennies enough to bury the pretty
little girl whose brave fight their
friendly eyes had watched. After she
was dead her story became human,
dramatic, cry out of the earth that
buried Alice from rights of young
girlhood. When she was alive she
was Just one unit in the figures out
of which statisticians prove what
girls need. In the Quarterly Journal
of Economics for June, Professor
Taussig published studious article
on the minimum wage for women. In
this he argued that because so per
cent of the wage earning women Of
the United States are between 16 and
25, and so per cent of these live at
home, "the immense majority of wo-
men who work in factories and like
employments, do not need as mini
mum" the sum most frequently con-
templated, So a week. 1t seems as
if Professor Taussig has never met
Alice Nessel and her kind. He knows
her only as part Of the 80 per cent
of working girls living at home.
Perhaps Alive at IS was worth no
more than S. a week. Perhaps So
ciety's real sin against her lay in
the sweat shop which killed her
father, in the causes that paralyzed
her mother and made her brother
sickly. Perhaps her own arteries
might have been sounder if life had
been kinder. Perhaps some day lit
tie girls of twelve may not have to
work for their living at all. But
Just now there are hundreds and thou
sands like Alice. They do not all
die. Some drag uot their lives in
feebleness. They make impotent
mothers and produce wan little chill
dren. But lesson from their tragic
lives ought to prove that the wages
of women and girls cannot be reck-
oned on the false basis that these
workers do not carry the burden of
supporting others.

ALICE NESSEL AND THE
MINIMUM WAGE.

On June 13, 1916, a plate standing
on a soap box at the corner of Hins-
dale street, in East New York, to
catch the pennies of passersby, was
the only outward and visible sign of
13-year-old Alice NessePs brief
struggle with economic questions and
minimum wage for girls. From the
time Alice was "going on" twelve,
she had been bread winner for her
paralyzed mother, her invalid
brother and herself on SIS week. On
June 18th, after she had worked ali
day in a knitting mill, washed the
supper dishes and taken care of her
household, she sat on her neighbor's
steps and told stories to children of
the block for an hour. Suddenly she
stood up and then fell unconscious
