Brides and Showers.

One of the smartest social af.
fairs Of the season was the show.
er given last Saturday evening
at Maccabee hall in honor of Miss
Marjorie Boles, the popular kin
dergarten teacher in the school,
who is to be an October bride.
The hostesses of the occasion
were Mrs. NJ dell Welch and Miss
Mae McMillin, and the guest list
numbered nearly a hundred of
the friends of the honor guest.
The beautiful decorative scheme
for the function took on the eff
feet of japanese tea garden,
"a latticed canopy top beng form
ed with varied-colored crepe pa
per streamers, a richness being
added by hundreds Of chrysan-
themums, and the whole illumi-
mated by mellowed light from
myriads of brilliantly colored ia
panese lanterns suspended from
the canopy. At one side was an
imitation of an old moss-covered
rock we'll with asweep, and from
its depth the bride-elect drew up
in the bucket the gifts shoWered
by the guests, a little girl being
concealed in the we'll to load in
the presents. Each guest upon
arrival was presented with an
American Beauty rose. The ear
'ly hours of the evening were
spent at cards, followed by the
serving Of light refreshments,
half dozen little maidens in
Japanese costumes acting as the
servitOrs. The favors were min
iature Japanese parasols. The
elaborateness of the occasion,
and M9shoWer of gifts attested
strQAgty the popularity of Miss
Boles. At the close of the school
year she returns to her home at
Guthrie, Oklahoma, and her mar
riage to Mr.. Jot Stiles will be
celebrated early in October, when
it is expected they will return to
WinsloW to make their home.
Winslow's offering at the altar
Hymen for June bride is Miss
Cora CressWell, the accomplished
and Winsome daughter of Super
visor and Mrs. R. C. Cresswell,
and anticipating this important
event in the life of the young
lady, Mesdames M. Dadey and
w. F. Goldsworthy were host
esses for a shower party at the
home of the former yesterday
afternoon. The home was most
most suggestively decorated with
hearts, and additional color and
fragrance was lent by bouquets
of American Beauty roses placed
in profusion about the rooms.
1t was an afternoon at cards and
with a guest list of fifty it was a
joyous occasion. A most elabo-
rate luncheon, that bordered near
a wedding feast, was served lat
er in the day. Master Sonny"
Goldsworthy, dressed in white,
was an important factor. Acting
as chauffeur with his little auto he
delivered the shower of gifts to
the table of the bride elect, who
unwrapped them to share her
pleasure with the guests. Miss
CressWell, who has been teach
ing in our schools the past year,
is a native daughter of WinsloW,
and many of the matrons at the
party have known her from the
day of sWaddling clothes and re-
joiced to see her grow and devel-
ope into charming young woman
hood. In a few weeks she is to
be married to Mr.. Herman Kahl,
a prominent young business man
of Flagstaff.

at the corner of Warren avenue
and Fourth street. and will be
given possession about the mid
die of the month.
Mr.. and Mrs. M. L. Vaughan
arrived home Thursday night
from their Los Angeles trip.
The roads were not such as to
tempt automobiling for pleas
ure, but they managed to get
through without any accidents.
The funeral of John Scott, who
died in the Albuquerque hospital,
from the result of a gunshot
wound received several days
previous, was held last Sunday
afternoon from the Elks' hall

Rev. J. M. White is in Prescott

that city Tuesday morning.
Tuesday being the twenty-ffth
anniversary of the organization

cial service was held that even

F. H. Murphy, our local photo
grapher, has just equipped his
studio with Victor Studio E1ec-
trio Flash Cabinet, a contrivance
that permits the taking of photo
graphs at night or day, in fair or
cloudy weather. Its greatest
value, however, is in affording
an instantaneous process Of tax
ing a photograph just as the sub
ject assumes the beatific smile of
the cherub, or the profound ex-
preston of a great statesman,
which heretofore was so hard to
get because such poses were diff
ficult to maintain for two min
utes. These Victor cabin cts are
now employed in all the studios
of the large cities, but this is the
first one introduced in Arizona.
Mr.. Murphy believes in maintain
ing his studio in the highest
state of efficiency.
We call our readers attention
to an article appearing elsewhere
on home gardening by Mrs.
Henry Young, that not only is
timely at this season, and in view
of the conditions nov confront
ing the people to reduce the cost
of living, but it contains valuable
information gathered by years of
successful results in raising
vegetables in this country. 1t is
not theory with Mrs. Young, but
experience and knowledge gain
ed by experimenting for the best
results. If Mrs. Young can raise
a fine garden in Winslow every
year there is no reason why all our
people cannot do the same if
they make the effort. Climatic
and soil conditions in this part of
Arizona are different than other
sections of the country, and the
manv failures the nennlp have
