Are Welded in Brooklyn Rose Garden

- ROOKLYN. 49, Miss Elizabeth
II Hoyt Sanarens and Owen Nor
ton Gunderson were married In
the rose garden in Prospect
park.
They had some difficulty in finding
a minister Of the gospel who did not
consider a wedding in a public park
"show," as one clergyman had ruled.
Even the fact that the particular spot
In the park had been a favorite one
of the bride since childhood failed to
convince certain clergymen that the
dignity associated with a wedding
would not be lacking.
Eventually Rev. Mr.. e. J. Marvin Of
the Fenimore Methodist church agreed
TO officiate. The time set was Z :45
O'Clock in the morning. To avoid an
expected crowd, however, the wedding
party arrived Is minutes earlier, much
to the relief Of waiting reporters and
photographers. The crowd was miss

to work, were the spectators.
Park Commissioner John N. Har-
man was master of ceremonies. The
maid Of honor was Miss Harriet Smith.
The best man was Sinclair Senarens,
the brides brother. The park COM
missioner escorted them and Mr.. and
Mrs. Luis Senarens and Mr.. and Mrs
George Gunderson, parents Of the
bride and bridegroom, to the rose
bower and the service began. Unfor-
tunately, the park Commissioners filed
the entrance to the bower and nothing
more interesting than the back Of his
neck was offered for public view.
The ceremony, including the Gus
tomary kissing of the bride, did not
last much more than Is minutes. The
wedding party went away in automo-
biles. the police urged the reporters to
depart and not step on the flowers,
and the childhood dream Of Miss Sen
arens was realized.

their cages in the Prospect

over Berk, king of the Toulouse,

Berk just lay down and died. His
years-the average lion age is fifteen

he was not so poppy as in the days
when Headkeeper John O'Brien used
to lend him to the movies when they
wanted to film jungle scene in Long

1t was about year ago that Mr..
O'Brien noticed Berk was not ruling
the roost-if you can call a lions den
a roost-with his pristine vigor. Time
was when Berk would settle dispute
between Sarah, Helen and Queenie
with a single, thunderous roar. OF
course when his roar began to squeak

How the Salvation Army Saves Paper

is a domestic necessity. Keeping pa
per from being scattered over the
neighborhood is a civic duty. Helping
to conserve Americas forests is an act
of patriotism. Giving men who are
down chance to get up is humans
tartan responsibility. You accomplish
all four in one stroke by saving waste
paper for the Salvation Army.
Il am particularly interested In the
conservation aspect OF the enterprise,
II deserves the participation Of every
woman who is interested In public
welfare.
The collection OF paper does more
than save forests. 1t also regenerates
thwarted human life. The good OF this
industry Is two-fold. The one economic
and the other humanitarian. And.
what is most surprising Of all, Is the
fact that 1t pays for ITSELF am told
1t is the only self-supporting branch Of
the Salvation Army"
The sorting and baling Of waste pa
per Is done by down but not cutters"
In the 95 Army industrial homes OF
social service centers throughout the
country. The money received from this
salvaged paper Is used exclusively to
pay for the maintenance Of the Army
work. II Is self-snpporting.
The report Of the work comes at a
time when the Department Of Agricul-
ture, through the federal forest serv-
ice, In its year book warns Of the ne
cessisy OF conserving the nations sup
ply of timber.

WORK OF LEAGUE /

AUTHORITY TEST
Both Sides in Dispute Over
Competency in italian
Question Stand Firm.
BY HENRY WOOD.
United Press Staff Correspondent

GENEVA, Sept. All work OF
the League of Nations was tempo
rarily paralyzed today pending the
outcome OF the councils test Of
strength with Mussolini
Both sides in the dispute over the
league councils competency to inter-
fere in the Graeco- Italian quarrel
rests on their positions, awaiting word
from Rome.
Premier Mussolini has been ad-
vised of the action taken yesterday,
when the council made recommenda-
tions to the council of ambassadors at
Paris regarding a proposed investiga-
ton into the Janina assassiinations
and payment Of reparations therefore
by Greece.
The council left as an open issue
the question Of its own competency
and delegates agreed the situation
pending a reply from Mussolini-was
too tense for this to be discussed.
No one doubts but that the league
has its back to the wall, fighting for
its very existence.
The assembly marks time and can.
not proceed with other business un.
til 1t learns whether the council is
to survive the attack Of the Fascist
premier. who has boldly declared It
incompetent to adjudicate the present
dispute in which Italy's dignity and
honor. Mussolini said, is involved.
If Italy permits the recommends
uons to the ambassadors 10 be acted
upon-something which late advtoes
from Rome indicated she might not
do-the situation may result in
peaceful settlement Of the dispute that
threatens the leagues life.
