WASHINGTON, May 1s.-The
great social event of the year here
was the marriage of Miss Mona
McAdoo, daughter OF the secretary
of the treasury, to Ferdinand de
Mohrenschildt, member of the
Russian embassy staff.
This alliance of two allied
demooraoies followed q betrothal
made when Russia was a despot-
Ism and the United States a neu-
trail.
Miss McAdoo's wedding gown
determined the prevailing style of
all elegant June bridal attire.
1t was q marvel Of simplicity.
Its most striking feature was q
court train of cream white satin
which sweeps from the high col
Lar in immense fullness and to an
extraordinary length.
Another absolutely new style
note was the double veil, consisting
of tho usual enveloping bridal
veil Of tulle and an extra short
veil to cover the face.
To correspond with q lavish use
of materials, @ bridal bouquet OF
immense size was designed.
AS tribute to the land of her
husbands allegiance, the bride
wore Russian headdress.

ANSWERS e eyMM GREY

come Disguised with them as
a rule. There are very few
girls whose company | real
ly enjoy. The reason for this
is: Every time, or nearly
so, l meet a new girl she
starts the conversation some
thing like this: Gee! last
night Reginald took me out
in his car and We dined at
the - and had a perfectly
lovely time, and he always
sends me flowers. etc.
Now, Miss Grey, isn't this
disgusting? She probably
went out with some delivery
boy in a jitney bus.
Then there is another type
of girl that I have stepped
out" with. She did the talk
ing like this: Gee whis,
BIS SO slow he couldn't catch
a cold. He only kissed,me 16
times and brought me homo
at IL o'clock and In a street
car at. that! I'm off that
fellow for life!" The next
day she goes without lunch to
save for a new pair OF silk
hose.
The average girl of today
looks for these qualifications
in a man: Has he ma
chine? Has he money and
does he spend itp He needs
no character.
Miss Grey, when we find a
girl that doesn't pretend to
be something she isn't, that
doesn't try to work us for
everything we have, that
doesn't SANDER everyone she
knows, that is willing to show
us a good time, one that will
enjoy a game of golf or tennis
instead of a cabaret, then We
have found a companion.
There is nothing | enjoy
more than to participate in
some legitimate pastime with
the companionship of some
girl whom | respect and with
whom | can converse intelli-
gently.
Girls! Just a word of adj
vice: AS soon as you stop
being hypocrites, as soon as
you become willing to meet us
half way and as soon as you
learn to talk about something
besides yourselves and the
other fellows you have been
with; then and only then will
we enjoy your companion
ship. "A BOY.

War SAUSAGE

DR.. Vinson of Arizona university, advises that
the long-ea burros, driven out of usage by mo-
tor trucks and railroads, can be made into "eiscl

Well sir, we'd wholly overlook the economy of
the lorass learned burro! In Arizona, New Mexico

sheep. You can buy him for So and sell his hide
for so cents.
With real pork sausage at 40 cents the pound,
our artistic admiration of the burro's physical
beauties turns to hot desire for him as table
delicacy, if the stuff for sausage is actually in him.
Faith, of the sort that questions not and wavers
not, as in the case of the familiar hash, may en-
able us to cotton to "eiselwurst." We wot not
how this new sausage tastes, but, if its texture is

Thanking you,

A.-Fresh honeycOmb tripe Is
best for brOiling. Wipe as dry as
possible, dip I'm fine cracker dust
and olive oil or melted butter,
draining off all fat possible, and
again dip in cracker dust. Place
I'm a creased brOiler and broil five
minutes, cooking smooth side the
first three minutes. Place on hot
platter, hOneycomb side up, spread
with butter, and sprinkle with
salt and pepper. Broiled tripe' is
at its best when cooked over u
charcoal fire.
Another way: Wipe and cut in
pieces for serving. Sprinkle with
salt and pepper, dry i'm batter fry
In a small quantity of hot fat, and
drain.
Batter: Mix one cut flour with
One-fOurth teaspoon salt; add
gradually One-half cup cold water,
and when perfectly smooth add
one egg well beaten, one-haIf
tablespoon vinegar, and one tea
spoon olive oil or melted butter.
