Emblem
Dear Mrs. Post. Among my
presents on my birthday l received
necklace from boy friend bear
ing his fraternity emblem. would
like TO know the significance of
this. and whether 1 may accept
il or not.
Answer: should say that

Gloves At An Evening
Reception"
Dear Mrs. Post. am playing
the wedding music at my cousins
wedding. which is taking place at
night In a big church. My husband
is one Of the ushers and is wearing
full evening dress ! will wear
vestments while at the organ and
be dressed in evening clothes I'M
derneath, ready to 60 to the re-
ception. I am wondering If / will
have to wear gloves after take
off the vestments.
Answer: Since the men are
wearing tails" 1t is likely that
gloves will be worn by most--if
not all the other women. In any
case, IL you want to be correct,
II would be best to wear them. On
the other hand, 1t is no longer con-
sidered in bad taste to go without
gloves In the evening unless the
community, as well as the occa-
sion, is a very formal one.
A Wedding without Music?
Dear Mrs. Post: / am going to
be married at home. / would like
to wear a simple white dress and
short veil, but the drawback Is
that there is no piano in our
house, and we cannot have music
at the wedding. l am wondering
whether 1t might create a pathetic
picture to have me in all the trim
mings and have no accompanying |
music. Perhaps 1t would look a
little like picture without
frame.
Answer: 1t is not at all neces-
sary to have music, but it does of
course add much beauty. | won
der. therefore. If it would not be
possible to borrow photograph.
There is an especial organ record
made purposely for weddings. 1t
has the 'Lohengrin" wedding
march on one side and Mendel-
sohns on the other. 1t is very
suitable and also very inexpensive.
