Dear Gertrude:
It is correct for you' to plan q
party for your sisters wedding
anniversary. Some authorities give
cotton as the symbol for the sec
ond anniversary, and some give
paper as the symbol. I am not
sure what you mean by q "miscel-
laneolIs" anniversary party. But
nowadays most people, don't pay
much attention to the symbols
given for wedding anniversaries.
especially for the earlier ones: II
they give presents for the occa
sion, they give something Tor the
home, not things Of the given
symbols. perhaps that is what
you mean by ScellaneousD

A SMALL fruit juicer is often
n desirable, and here is one
that can be tucked into a cor
ner Of the picnic basket, or can
be carried on the train to make
the necessary orange juice, or
lemonade. It's handy for kitchen
use, too, as it does its work
quickly. You just insert the cir
cular cutting edge half way into
lemons, or all the way into grape
fruit or oranges, and squeeze.
You can put lemons or lines
into the ice box. If you use just
part the Juice, and keep them
till you need the rest. You can
also use this triple duty gadget
for coring apples. It sells for
just 10c.

stayed there, taking each fence with
great ease.
