Our good friend Byron over at

gave hint that perhaps we might
say a word about the wedding here
at the parsonage, Sunday, March e,
when Miss Rachel Huff, daughter Of
Rev. Huff, was united in marriage to
Floyd Latimore of Ada. Well, here
goes: 1t was quiet home wedding,
only near relatives Of the families
We're present. The best man and
! bridesmaid were Dwight Baughman
of Ada, and Elizabeth Huff, sister
Of the bride. The ceremony was per-
formed at high noon, the father of
the bride officiating The bride was
dressed in powder blue chiffon, and
she carried an arm bouquet Of roses,
presented by friend of the groom
a florist at Ada. This was followed
by a sumptuous dinner; the center
of the table being graced by fine
cake decorated with miniature bride
and groom under an arch of ever
green. Almost Immediately the
charming couple left for their future
home at Ada, where the groom has
a good position with the Ada Herald.
Altogether it was quite an up-to-date
affair. May they truckle along
pleasantly as they journey through
life, is the wish of the writer.
Rev. Huff is assisting Rev. Dean

are having good attendance, and

WANT TO LOOK YOUNG?

The secret of keeping young is tc
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no
need of having a sallow complexion
dark rings under your -pimples
"a bilious look in your face-dull
eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will
tell ycd ninety per cent of all sickness
comes from inactive bowels and liver.
DIR. Edwards, a well-known phy-
sician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable
compound as a substitute for calomel
to act on the liver and bowels, which
he gave to his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are
gentle in their action yet always efec-
tive. They help bring about that nat
ural buoyancy which all should enio7

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MoLLIE MERRICK.

HOLLYWOOD, July 20 (N.AN.A.).-
With local tree-sitters absorbing the
headlines, it's hard for poor movie
star to get any notice.
Lima Basquette's decision to abandon
the spotlight and go in for q shop
keepers career doesn't surprise the
luncheon prophets who have been keep
ing their eyes on the widow of the late
Sam Warner and the reported as
estranged wife of Peverell Marley.
Whenever village girl gets active
with divorce rumors, quarrels over the
possession of her child or other activi-
ties calculated to land her in the prints,
o change of career may follow.
And scrutiny OF some of the fuctua-
'tiong Of village careers during the past
year proves that the purveyors of tan
gible wares and the restaurateurS have
had a better season than some of the
Adherents of art.
This is the fourth career chosen by
the Basquette. She began public life
rs danseuse. Then she essayed silent
pictures, and then followed brief fling
as stage artist.
AN oil painting of Lima Basquette
made y her danseuse days, is one OF
two canvases ornamenting the walls OF
Jack Warmers drawing room. The
other canvas is a life size replica OF
Rim in-Tin.
Hollywood has taken to the back -of-
the-head hat with zest. Every movie
lady has her bonnet hanging on the
fape of her neck these days and with
q. good inch of her hair line showing
It's q fashion designed to set off the
charm of youthful faces, and such OF
tie fair and 40 citizenry as copy 1t are
out of luck.
The colony is wearing its berets on
the back of its blondined skulls and in
their hours of ease at home movie ladies
affect shorts of fiat crepe. linen or
shantung. In the evening or for khe
home dinner pajamas are getting more
and more intricate. In most cases they
