DEAR A. LEDA:
% Will you please tell me what
bridesmaids should wear in the eve
ming in the way of hats? 81 Are
bandeaus Incorrect? 81 Do the
bridesmaids wear gloves nowadays
as they used to? Thank YOU
Phyllis B.. Ala.
Small turbans are worn a
great deal. Fitting close to the
head as they do they go better with
a dressy afternoon or evening dress
than a large brimmed hat. Ban
deaus are worn occasionally. but
not often. Undoubtedly the reason
for this is that in some churches
women are forbidden to uncover
their heads. (3) No. Gloves are
seldom worn by the bridesmaids
of today. That as well as a few
other dress accessories seem to be
a relic of the past.
DEAR A. LEDA:
Please state just what part of a
wedding (where there is to he me-
dium-sized reception) falls to the.
groom to finance? Also, if his best
man comes from some distance and
lodges at a hotel for a night. should
the groom offer to pay his expenses?
With thanks.
A MASCULINE READER.
On comparison to the brides end
of a wedding financially, the groom
has the small part. However, his
duties are very divided and they
start with the fees tor the marriage
license. Also the clergyman and
sexton are paid by .the groom. In
addition to these fees he must tip
the sexton if the church is opened
for a rehearsal. He must provide
the marriage ring, the brides bou-
quet, the bouquets of the brides
maids, and if he chooses neckties and
gloves for his ushers. Then the
groom sees that carriages are pro-
vided to take the ushers to and
from the church, and another car
riage to take he and his bride from
the church Such are the bride
groOm's duties.

The fruit which was blown from the
trees during the wind storm are not
properly windfalls. Windfalls are us
ually defective in some way and either
drop from premature ripening from
lack of vitality or are blown off with
but slight disturbance. The bulk of
the apples which the gale Of last
Tuesday forcibly picked We're prime
apples and not affected, and were
only forced off by wind which broke
off trees, tore down packing sheds,
blew in windows etc, and many of
them struck the soft fielding cover
crop with no more force than the
average picker uses when dropping
hand picked apples into bag or
dumping boxes. These apples certain
ly should be salvaged.
On the east Highlands the Hardy
and Green orchards were practically
all picked before the wind but most
of the large growers were just get
ting started on Winesaps. Among
those who had heavy loss was Mrs.
Lucille Withers, whose orchard was
pronounced to be in probably the best
shape of any on the Highlands in
regard to soil, cultivation, pest con-
troll, thinning, ETC., and the apples
were of most excellent size and color.
About three fourths of the trees We're
unpicked but as they were immediate
ly picked up and did not seem to be
bruised where they fell, it is expected
that most of them can be salvaged.

undertaking of this nature Is the PEN
