Foley said that the youth could easily have managed to avoid the strangulation which caused hls death. No reasons for suspecting foul play could be advanced.
 The body of the younsster was found this morning, his two feet tied together and an aviator's hat on his head. The hat proved to be the property of Tony Lembo Of Paterson avenue, a schoolmate at Chase school. Lembo told Detec- tive Foley that he lost the cap a month ago. Choquette's own cap was found on the ground nearby.
 It was recalled this morning that about month ago patrolman found the lad with dangerous knife and took it from him. He was using it as party of his cowboy" equipment. Police believe the incl dent has no connection with the death.
 The investigation could unearth no motive for suicide. As far as could be learned the lad had been in no serious trouble at home or at school. He was known to be somewhat moody, but was oth- erwise a normal, fun-loving youth.
 Early last evening the dead boy 5 mother ordered him to beat some rugs. He put off the job and spent time playing around the yard Witn n little niece. When he was called into supper he was asked apott the rug beating chore and he said he would not eat right away. lie left the house and his mother thought he intended to beat the rugs. That was the last that was seen of him.
 When he did not return home late last night his older brother, Arthur took shortcut through the woods in the rear of the house to go to the home of the Lembo boy and also that of Thomas Iasko .on Munson avenue to ask them 1T they had seen the missing young ster. No trace of the boy had been seen.
 Body Is Discovered
 This morning at 7:30 o'clock Ar thur again went through the path in the woods and there in the day light he spied his brother hang ing from a tree nearby. He imme- diately told his mother and the or fficials were notified. Dr Richard Hinchey, the family physician, arr rived quickly, too. but was unable to do anything for the youngster. It was believed that he had been dead since about 8. o'clock last evening.

First Shower

4AOO OAV"SA
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am planning to give a shower
for a girl who has just eloped.
Since this is the first shower I
have ever given, I do want it to
be a successful one, so I am COM
ing to you for advice.
Please tell me just what kind
of shower I should give her and
what the proper procedure is as
to invitations Especially to the
bride herself, entertainment, if
any, refreshments, and, Of
course, just how the presents
are presented to the bride. Any
novel ideas will be appreciated.
M.
These are the kinds Of
showers that are usually given:
a lingerie shower, or a lingerie,
stockings, and handkerchiefs;
bridge shower; silver; glass.
ware; china; linen; bathroom
accessories; dressing table
shower; paper shower; electric
accessories shower; kitchen
shower; pantry shower Gall
kinds Of canned goods and
jams and jellies).
First talk over your plans
with the bride, to see what date
is convenient, and so forth.
You may then send your in
vitations on your viSiting-card,
on the informal message card,
which is the double visiting
card or may be used plain, or
by a note.
You may plan your shower
as a luncheon to be followed
by bridge if you wish or as q
tea, or as a tea to be preceded
by bridge. But really no form

Correct Manners
BY Mrs. Cornelius Beeckman
By Walt Disney
BY Bill Dryer

Of entertainment except the
shower itself is necessary, for
there will be much to talk
about!
You may, for the container
for the presents, cover a large
box or hamper or paper trunk
or basket with white or white
and-gold paper.
Sending Wedding Invitations
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I would greatly appreciate It
If you will notify me as to the
proper way of sending a we'd
ding invitation to a mother and
daughter? Do you address both
the envelope and invitation
alike or do you address the en-
velope to the mother and invita-
ton to Mrs. Beatrice Crown and
Daughter or Mrs. Beatrice
Crown and Anne, or are Sepa-
rate invitations issued?
CURIOUS.
It always gives more compli-
ment to the people to whom
we are sending invitations If we
send individual invitations. So
if possible. send one invitation
to the mother, and one to the
daughter. However, if separate
invitations for every member Of
a family are too great a strain
on the budget. address the out
side envelope to:
MRS. HENRY ALLEN CROWN
MISS ANNE CROWN
and the inside envelope to:
MRS. CROWN
MISS CROWN
Never use the informal name
in addressing an envelope.
