Despite Loving COsts.
Yous remember the old song-'aThe
high ost of living is only a joke:
it's the high cost of loving that's
keeping me broke!" Well. nowadays,
people are reversing that; and when
one stops to consider the appallingly
high cost of both. the wonder Is any
one has the nerve to try either. And
yet-weddfng, bells are peaiing merrily
and engagements are being an
nounced every five minutes"
Jeanette Cowan's wedding plans
are marching merrily forward. Just
recently she spent about q week in
washington with her mother and
Senator Shields at the Shoreham. She
and her mother had been up 20 New
York, presumably trousseauing,"
since the wedding Is to take place on
September 10. They then went up
to Cambridge for q visit with young
Bob" Cowan, not very long married,
and his wife. Young Cowan, OF
course, went into the service as soon
as he realized that was the place for
all outstanding youngsters, and got
out as soon as the war was over, hav-
ing made a fine record while In uni-
orm. He is now devOting himself
single e-heartedly to the laW-and, of
course, his young wife.
Last wednesday Jeannette and her
mother left for their Tennessee home.
and I doubt II washington viii see
hem again before the wedding. It's
a certainty Il won't see them for some
time after il, for Lieutenant Colonel
Heth is taking his bride TO Honolulu,
where he has been detailed for duty.
I haven't heard any Of the details Of
their plans-not even who the attend
ants are to be. In fact, doubt IL the

decided upon.
