ALL GERMANY UNDER STRICT MARTIAL LAW
(Continued from First Page)

Independent socialist leaders plan
 to continue demonstrations when
 ever the industrial councils bill is up
 for debate and it is expected the eli
 max will be reached on Thursday
 which is the anniversary of the
 deaths of Dr. Karl Liebknecht, and
 Rosa LuXemburg, radical leaders who
 were slain while being taken to Moa-
 bit prison
 The Entente missions arriving here
 today are reported to have indicated
 their intention to call upon their gov
 ernmcn for military protection if demonstrations here are threatening. While the number of dead was an- nounced as 10 early this evening, it seems proba able the fatalities will eX ceed this total. Some of the wounded lay in the Tiergarten for a consider able time after the shooting. although many were carried off quickly by the sanitary corps and placed in nearby 1 hospitals.
 As the national assembly was hold ing it's sitting in the chamber, in the interior of the big granite pile, the as- sembly members heard only faint re- ports of the shots that were fired. Gradually news of the clash reached ] the chamber and an exodus followed i into the corridors into which a score of men from the mob succeeded in l penetrating and started general 1 harangue. Up in the press gallery the ] excitement was equally intense. The government admits the loss of l one member of the troop of guards ] killed in the fighting, while several are 1 missing.
 1 The big oak-paneled door which I gives access to the west wing of the l reichstag building was smashed dur 1 ing the attempted rush. It was the | prompt resistance of the public secur- | ity troops on guard that prevented ! ingresS, which would have resulted in ! the invasion of the chamber by the i mob. Through this door large cali i bre bullet fired from the ranks of the l mob, penetrated and passed through ! a second door into the lobby, crowded l with members.
 1 Tonight \oske's troops threw a cor ] don of rifles and barbed wire through i out the downtown streets. The reich 1 trol. The Wilhelmstrasse was barred to all traffic and the goVernme ent l building was virtually inaccessible eN- i cept to those employed there.
 The Inter den Linden entrance to l the Hotel Adlon was closed and dark ] ened. The members of the assembly 1 were not molested as they left the reichstag building after adjournment 1 was taken.

The Etiquette of Weddings

THE bride, of course, chooses the
i day and the hour for her we'd
ding. Only two days in the week
have been set aside as inappropriate
for weddings, and they are Sunday
and Friday, and in spite of the old
rhyme that libels Saturday as mo day
at all," 1t Is as popular as any other.
Almost any hour may be chosen, but
custom has established the hours
from eight until three as correct, and
In the Anglican church high noon Is
favored. There are many evening
weddings. Notwithstanding these old
established hours, and many that are
celebrated in the afternoon later than
three o'clock. There are too many
things to be considered in fixing the
hours to make hard and fast rules
concerning them.
Tho Home Wedding.
A home wedding is simpler than
church wedding but the rules govern
Ing the duties Of the brides parents,
and those of her attendants are the
same. The rooms of the home, to be
used at the wedding are usually cleared
of small pieces of furniture and
prettily decorated with flowers and
foliage, and a home allows the exer-
else of individual taste In this regard.
Greenery is usually massed where the
bride and groom are to stand, and
when the ceremony is finished the
bride and groom turn to face the
guests and receive congratulations. If
a wedding breakfast is served a table
for the bride and groom. their par
ents and their attendants Is set, and
others for the guests. Or, the maid or
matron of honor and the best man.
with all the other attendants may be
seated at one table and the bride and
groom at another, with their immedi-
ate relatives. At a wedding reception
the parents of the bride first receive
the guests and the parents of the
groom may stand with them. or the
latter may stand near the bride and
groom. The best man and ushers make
the presentations to the bride and
room, and the brides attendants are
grouped somewhere near her. Re-
freshments are served at wedding re-
ception Just as at formal "at home"
The bride cuts the first piece of we'd
ding cake. White boxes, containing
pieces of wedding cake and marked In
gold or silver letters. with the COM
bined initials of the bride and groom
are given to the guests as they leave.
When the bride leaves the guests,
to dress for her wedding journey, her
maid of honor usually goes with her
to take care of any commission the
bride may have for her, and the best
man stays faithfully by the side of
the groom AS the bride comes down
the stairs she tosses her bouquet to
The Colorado statesman., 1920-05-29

her maids, and that one whose lucky
hands receives 1t is thereby assured by
fate that she will be the next bride.
The best man is usually at the sta
ton, to be sure that everything has
been taken care of, and to see the
bridal pair started on their journey.
When a bride decides to be married
in her travelling costume she has only
one attendant-a maid or matron of
honor. She usually wears a corsage
bouquet and carries a prayer book,
but her attendant may carry flowers.
For second marriage the bride
chooses beautiful afternoon frock
and a charming hat, or u married in
a tailored suit or frock. She wears
a corsage bouquet and has one at
tendant and may choose to carry a
prayer book. When a widower mar
ries he does not give farewell bach
elor dinner" but otherwise his pro-
cedure is the same as for his first we'd
ding. Ushers may serve at the we'd
ding of a widow, and she may have a
wedding breakfast or lunch or recep-
ton, as she chooses.

The Corset Vogue.

Corsets, the real foundation of style
and of grace, are particularly inter
esting this season. The uncorseted
figure Is not fashionable and affected
by only a small percentage of the
smart women of Paris. But corsets
that give an easy, graceful, supple ap-
pearance are decidedly In vogue. This
means that corsets of tricot are the
proper thing-the smartest models are
cut long over the hip-and short above
the waistline and are lightly boned
If boned at all. One new model re-
Gently seen has only the front steels
and the small bones at the lacings in
the back. This is an American cor
set and adequately fits the figure re-
qulrements of the young American
woman.

Contrast coIors Vogue.

White garments frequently have
touches of pink flowers with green
foliage. With the fad for lavender
lingeries growing, lavender embroidery
is seen also In pink and blue garments.
Gowns of pink plisse crepe, for e1-
ample, have both blua and lavender
silk stitches decorating them, very
artistlcally, it must be admitted. And
lavender garments themselves are re-
lieved with plenty of pink handwork,
some in quite a rose tone

Q PRING and June bring the loveliest
- and most appealing of pageants-
The Whitehead confirmation classes and
the wedding professions. both marking
great epochs in the lives of women.
However one may plan for the latter,
whether the wedding Is to be simple
or elaborate, no detail of 1t can be con-
sidered unimportant; everything about
1t must be perfectly ordered. Nice dis
tlnctions must be made in apparel and
in everything else.
Next to the bride the most distin-
grIshed figure In the wedding process
81 IN is the matron or maid of honor.
81, many of this years brides have
CT osen a matron of honor that pref
erence for matrons appears to have
developed, but each bride chooses ell
ther a maid or matron to attend her
from among her own relatives or very
close friends, or from the relatives of
the groom. Having made this choice
the next important matter for discus
sion Is the dress which this most hon
ored attendant Is to wear; the brides
privilege allows her to signify her
wishes and custom assures her that
they will be carried out by all her at
tendants.
1t is usual for the matron or maid
of honor to wear the color that has
The Colorado statesman., 1920-05-29

been chosen for the maids. but her
dress is made differently In order to
make a distinction, and dlgnified de-
sign is chosen for it. Often the attend
ant of honor uses the color worn by
the maids In the foundation of her
gown, yelling 1t with lace or some
other diaphanous overdress. Or she
may wear the same color in different
material as when the maids wear taf-
feta and she chooses georgette. But
in any case she defers to the judgment
of the bride.
A beautiful gown for the maid or
matron of honor is pictured above. 1t
Is made of lace, point d'esprit. with
bands of georgette and lace bordering
the three fiounces that make the skirt.
The bodice has the same inserts and a
band of narrow ribbon about 1t in ad-
dition. This narrow ribbon reappears
below the crushed girdle Of georgette,
in a sash tied at the left side, and the
chances are that 1t Is a repetition of
q similar decoration on the maids
gowns. Small half-wreaths of little
chiffon roses are enchanting In this
gown and they are suspended from the
sleeves, at the front of the girdle and
at irregular intervals on the fiounces.
One might look far without finding a
lovelier dress than this.
