that is fine and idealistic in bridal
linens remains fine but not neces-

happens is that the bride wheels

AVOID THE
DANGER OF
CONSTIPATION
Delicious Cereal Overcomes
This Condition Safely and
Pleasantly

The first signs of constipation
may be headaches, tired feelings,
sallow compilations, sleeplessness,
loss Of appetite. If neglected, con-
stipation may seriously impair
health. .
Today, you can Danish constipa-
ton by simply eating a delicious
cereal. Laboratory tests show that
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN provides "bulk"
to exercise the intestines, and vita
min B to further aid regular habits.
ALL-BRAN is also a good source of
iron for the blood.
This "bulI1" in ALL-BRAN is gentle
in action similar to leafy vegetables.
Within the body, it forms a soft
mass, and gently clears out the in
testinal wastes.
Two tablespoonfuls daily will
overcome most types of common
constipation. If not relieved this
way, see your doctor.
Enjoy ALL-BRAN as a cereal, or
use in cooking. Appetizing recipes
on the red-and-green package. Sold
by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in
Battle Creek.

While the Eastern Star service
for the installation Of officers is
in itself a beautiful ceremony, yet
each year, the individual variations
/ in the service make it even more
impressive and render it almost a
new service.
Saturday night Signal chapter
before an audience of 200 members
and guests, installed the new Off
GERS at one of the loveliest cere-
monies ever conducted by the local
group.
The chapter room was beautiful
ly decorated for the occasion max
ing a perfect setting for the digni-
fled service. Pedestal baskets filled
with emblematic flowers were
placed at the star points and en-
blematic flowers also stood in the
east and the west.

L. McCrory, Junior past patron
Ethel M. Martin, and Hazel Rey-
nolds, past matrons, took their
stations in the east as Roy Sweeney
played for the opening number q
Xyllophone solo.
Mrs. Bucklin then instructed the
marshal and chaplain, Mrs. Mar
tin and Mrs. Reynolds, to invite
the installing marshall, Pearl Han
sen, into the chapter room.
The incoming officers were then
escorted into the chapter room in
an imposing procession, their white
gowns and pOmpom corsageS of
yellow making striking picture. A
color contrast was afforded by the
lovely green gown worn by the in
Stalling matron, Ina Anderson, al
SO the retiring matron, who wore a
corsage of orchids, the gift of her
patron, Hoyt Strickler. The mar
shall and chaplain had corsages OF
gardenias.
AS the officers marched into the
room they formed a star around
the altar and then 20 white robed
little girls who wore in their hair
the five emblamatic colors of the
star points, circled the star, Mrs
P. A. Murray singing "The East

Anderson s daughter, Marjorie, act
ing as flag bearer. The deputy
grand matron, Thelma Bailey OF
the Brawley chapter, also was hon
ored with an escort, Roy Sweeney

honoring Mrs. Bailey.
An interesting event of the cere-
mony occurred when Nancy zurch-
er, daughter of the incoming worthy
matron, placed the Bible before the
altar and when Mrs. Zurcher was
presented with bouquet of roses
the gift of her husband and daugh-
ter.
AS the marshal returned to her
station Laura Redden sang, EStelle
