/. Should the bride and bride
groom, in leaving the church to
go to the reception, leave the
church in a mschirS alone, or
go in the machine with the
bridesmaids and best man?
2. Does the bridegroom'S fam
lily sit on the right or left side
in church? M. E.
/. They go from the church
in the car alone.
2. The bridegroom's family
and friends sit on the right of
the aisle. You see, the parents
of the bridegroom are the
guests of honor of the occasion,
and guests of honor sit on the
right Of the hosts. The parents
of the bride are the hosts CT

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
Is 1t proper to eat cheese with
a knife? A thinks he should
take the cheese from the plate
to his mouth on his knife-any
kind of cheese? There has
been quite a debate about this.
MRS. B. C.
This is very bad table man
ners to take the cheese to ones
mouth with the knife. II, for
instance, the cheese is served
with pie, the cheese should be
eaten with the fork, as is the
pie. II the cheese is served with
crackers (say camemhert cheese
and SaltineS or hard crackers :,
the cheese is spread on the
crackers, one mouthful at q
time, and the mouthful taken
in the fingers to the mouth.

WHALE ARRIVES
HERE TO-DAY:
Staff Photo

Have you ever seen a whale?
Very few people ever have, for
they are creatures little known
to man. One win arrive in town
tomorrow, q real whale, in the
flesh and emba1med.
With the arrival tomorrow of
the Pacific Whaling Company's
gigantic whale exhibit for a
limited stay at Fourteenth Street
Southwest, opposite the Bureau
of Engraving. the huge mammal
will be on exhibition on a rail-
road car built especially for 1t.
One Of the largest ever cap
tlred. 1t is Of the Blue Sulphur
Bottom species, SIS feet in length,
and it weights over 68 tons.
The blue Sulphur bottom whale
is considered the largest Of all
whales and the largest Of all
animals now existing.
Veteran railroad men were
amazed when confronted with the
task of transporting it around the
country. Not only its immense
weight caused them no little
thought but, in addition the
length Of the car measuring "a
feet had to be reckoned with.
It is perfectly embalmed with
something like 5000 gallons Of en-
balming fluid Of a special make,
and it required three days and
four NIGHTS Of continuous work to
do the job. A special pump was
used with a 22-pounds pressure.
Following its capture, the whale
was floated about so miles to port.
There, the newly built all-steel
flat car was taken to the place
where the giant was floating. The
car was then swung overheard by
a steam crane and lowered into
80 feet of water. The whale was
then towed by tugs onto the sub
r1erged car, and the car lifted un-
til the whale rested on the Car.
Then both the car and whale
were hoisted up, and placed on the
railroad tracks, where car build
ers, carpenters, painters. ETC., COM
pleted the job. Of building the
balance Of the car around the
whale.
Captain Dedrick, veteran sea-
man and retired whaling master,
will lecture during the engage
ment, which is scheduled for 8 a..
m. to midnight daily.
