Predictions that a liberal decrease
of the United States visible supply of
wheat would be announced on next
Monday tended further to lift wheat
values in the past part of the day.
The predictions were due chiefly to
evidence of heavy out-movement of
wheat at domestic distributing points.
On the other hand, widespread cooler
weather and the fact that Liverpool
quotations showed a greater decline
than was looked for had notable de-
pressing influence here, virtually rul-
ing the market until well after mid

 Project In Liberia Begins
CLEARING GROUND IN ORDER TO PLANT 100,0oO,OO0 RUBBER
 TREES IN AFRICA

AKRON, O., Dec. 10. (P)-Clearing away of the Liberian jungle prepara- tory to the planting of 100000 acres of rich African soil with 100,000,000 rubber trees has been begun by fore es marshaled from the end of the earth by Harvey s. Firestone, presi- dent of the Firestone Tires and Rub. Der Company.
 By January l, 24O representatives of the Akron company will be in Li. beria, pushing forward the project which MT. Firestone said will be supplying between 25 and B per cen of the worlds crude rubber within the next decade.
 The leasing transactions already are completed with the Lberian, gov, ernment. The construction of Whar fage facilities begun at Monroyia, tht Liberian capital, and the planting Q the first 5O,OOO acres is under way

every two acres. Thus, if 50,000 acres are planted within the next six months as is contemplated, 25,000 natives will be employed for that tract.
 The plalntation developed consists of several operations in it's crop as- pect alone. First, the ground must be cleared of the jungle. The brush is heaped high and is burned in sec- Ftions covering several hundred acres, over which the fires rage for a week or more. Following the burning, the area is s'taked off, one stake for each rubber tree. Holes are drilled after each stake is pulled, and either seeds are planted or young trees are set out.

PAYING TRIBUTE TO ANCHORAGE

Seward is paying tribute to Anchor age at the rate of $500 per month. For the past several years patients from Seward desiring surgical operations have been compelled to go to Anchor age, and bills aggregating from $500 to $500 have been paid by these pa tients. According to figures furnished the Gateway $500 is a small estimate of the amount paid by our citizens.
 Many readers will say, whats the odds; the money is paid by the pa tient." But such is not the case. Ev- cry dollar paid into the Anchorage hos pital comes from the local merchants, citizens and professional men. It is money made here that should go into the arteries of trade, and which is ir- retrievably lost when taken out of the city for any purpose whatsoever.
 And not only do our local doctors lose this money, but the money spent for groceries, hotel bills, and other expenses during the convalescence period. The town has good physi. elan but no operating surgeon.
 And following hospital bills are the large sums spent on undertaking bills where the operation is unsuccess- full.
 We believe little thought will show our citizens that they cannot afford to be without a hospital. Not for the money lost, but for the security of our citizens.
Seward daily gateway., 1925-12-10

It will cost $100 an acre to pre- pare the ground and to plant the trees, MT. Firestone estimates.
 1t requires five years for the rub Der trees to reach the stage at which they should first be tapped for rub Der sap. The trees usually live to be 100 years old, furnishing rubber thruout this period.
 For several years, the shipping fa- cilities at present provided to Liber ia will be sufficient, Mr. FIrestone be- lieves. Ships now ply regularly coastwise from London and other European ports to Monrovia and from New Orleans and New York to Li- beria.

nEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
~ On leaving the brides home
on the way to the church, who
goes first?
2-When leaving the, church,
who leads.
SIS it proper for the bride
groom and ushers to wear
Tuxedos at 6 O'Clock church
wedding? What kind Of vest and
tie should be worn?
4-Should white gloves be
worn?
5-The bride is going to be
given away by a young man
who is five years younger than
she is, and who rs a very good
friend Of the family. Would
you consider this proper?
D. G. M.
TFIE mother Of the bride goes
Il in the first cab. The reason
for this order is that she is the
last person seated. just before
the wedding professional starts.
In the cab with her. if it is more
convenient, the brides mother
may take some OF the brides
maids. The other bridesmaids
and the maid Of honor may go In
the next cab, and that makes
them arrive at the church in time
to be forming the professional.
In the last cab should go the
bride and her father or whoever
Is to present her in marriage.
This, too, is done for convenience,
since they are the last in the pro-
cessional.
~ The bride and groom. This
again is for convenience, for they
are the first In the occasional,
and they also should arrive at
the home of the bride so that
they will be ready to receive the
guests as they come from the
church for the reception.
81 The correct attire for all
gentlemen at an evening wedding
is full dress. Tuxedo is only
an informal Substitute" With
full dress, a white vest and a
white bow tie should be worn.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1925-04-27
WEDDING BEHAVIOR

With tuxedo, either a white or
black waistcoat may be worn, and
always a black bow tie.
ID White gloves should be worn
with full dress, but not with the
informal tuxedo suit.
(5) That depends. If the bride
has no father, mother, uncle,
brother, cousin or other relative
who could be asked to present
her in marriage, then it would be
proper for her to ask this friend
of the family. But, if she has
relative whom she might ask, and
instead asks this friend of the
family, 1 think that it would seem
strange" to the guests.
At Formal Evening Wedding
nEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
~ 1 am invited to a formal
evening wedding.
~ Should my evening gown be
cut very low?
(2) Is 1t correct to wear a thin
scarf over my shoulders after
removing my evening wrap?
go Do you wear gloves?
w. H.
YOUR gown should be a formal
l. evening gown. with a neck.
line that is becoming to you.
Study the neck-lines in the best
fashion magazines and determine
which one will be best suited to
the contour of your face and
neck.
(2) It Is correct. but with an
evening gown it is usually not
effective.
81 Yes, in these days gloves
are largely a matter of choice,
but with a formal gown at a
formal evening wedding. it is bet
ter to wear long white kid gloves.
