CORRECT
MANNERS
MRS. Cornelius Beeckman

A Gift Purchased by Two
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
/. The young man I go about
with and I wish to buy a birth
day gift for my nephew. A
says that my friend should pay
the full price of the gift and
that the card should state that
the gift comes from both of us.
B says we should both pay our
share of the gift. Which is
proper?
2. I would also appreciate
your advice on a similar mat
ter-only that this is concern
ing wedding-the couple to
be married being very good
friends of ours. Please advise
as to the gift and how the
card accompanying it should
read. Any other suggestions
and advice in the matter will
be appreciated. E. c.
l. Since you are giving the
gift together. each should pay
half. And then the accom-
panying card will be an honest
one.
2. It would be the best form
for each to give a separate gift.
In the gift to your nephew,
there is more casual spirit, q
thoroughly informal one. and
so it does not so much matter
that you combine forces for
the gift. But a wedding is q
formal occasion, and good taste
would suggest that the gifts
should be separate ones.
The Wedding Of the Woman
Who Is Marrying Again"
Dear Miss Beeckman:
I am a young divorcee plan
ming to be married again very
soon, and as I would like to
know the proper thing to do,
I would like your advice.
My parents want to give me
a large wedding and wish me
to be dressed like a bride
with a white dress and veil.
Is this correct? c. N.
Custom and tradition and
good taste and good form de-
cree that the bride-for-the-sec-
ond-time should not wear the
bridal gown, or the bridal veil,
or orange blossoms. Brides
who do not abide by this So
cial decree lay themselves open
to criticism.
The woman who is marry
ing again" shows the best
taste and the best form when
she has a "quiet wedding"
small or fairly small. with no
attendant or one attendant, a
r1atron of" honor. She should
wear either an afternoon dress
or travelling ensemble.

When we got the news that she
was dead my first thought was
that the confession she had left

that it wouldn't be conclusive
or anything. But it's perfect,
I wouldn't be surprised If he had
a hand in it He might have
done something to bring her to

opium. You know he loved AL
fred Farnsworth. Their rela-
tionship was never that of mas
ter and servant, they were really
friends. I don't think that he
would have let the death go
unavenged. If her confession
were not necessary to free you I
almost think he'd have killed
her himself, once he discovered
her guilt. He's not modern,
you know, he's old, old China,
dispensing speedy justice.

Cathie said dreamily. It'd 1ike
to talk to him about-about Mr..
Farnsworth, I think he knew
him so much better than I ever
did; even though I was his wife.
I'd like to talk to him, and ask
him if he's really and truly sure
that he was satisfied with me
that he was glad he married
me, even if it ended-like 1t
did"
"Of course he was glad, Cath

That's it. The end. Maybe

It would have come. Probably

BY the way. CheSter's wife has
left him. She's starting divorce

little shopkeepers, and up to the
door of the Chinese Six Com

ing Tuesday at which time figures
were presented TO show that the or

Annual Meeting Voted a Difference
of Two Cents i'm Price of Sweet
and Sour Cream.

The Duquette Cooperative Cream
cry association held its annual meet
ing at the Community hall Wednesday
afternoon of last week, with a large
and enthusiastic attendance.
The report of the ereamery's oper-
ations during the year showed a small
gain over last year and showed a good
fair price paid the patrons during the
year. However, it was the unanimous
opinion that if all the dairymen in
the territory served by this creamery
would join in and support their home
factory, much better returns would be
had
Arthur Rentz, ieldman for the Land
O'Lakes, spoke on the wonderful
progress made by the Land O'Lakes
association and the great benefits ac-
crued to the dairy farmers from its
organization. He also stressed the
great importance of quality in dairy
products.
W. F. Hammargren gave an in
structive talk on the dairy industry
as whole and especially on improv-
ing the production per COW, rather
than increasing the herd.
