HAS MANY CONTACTS
AMONG WOMEN

Right now she has a plan which
would enable newspaper women to
volunteer their services by acting
as liaison officers between local
army camps and her central Wash
ington bureau. They can spot re-
gional army doings of interest to
women and send them in to her
to be passed along to feminine
readers all over the country.
Oveta Hobby is in touch with
women in many cities and has al
WAYS been active in public life.
She started out as law student,
and has written text book on
parliamentary law which is used
in Texas and Louisiana schools.
She was legal clerk in the Texas
state legislature at the age Of 10.
and codified the state banking
law before she was IS. Then she
married William Pettus Hobby
and moved to Houston to live.
But she just couldn't sit back
and be home-body. So she start
ed in as research editor on her
husbands paper. From there she
advanced to book editor, assistant
editor. and finally was elected TO
the executive vice presidency IN
1898. And as if that wasn't
enough to keep her busy, she was
president of the Texas League OF
Women Voters. an active Junior
Lacquer, a worker for the Dem
ocratic committee. Community
Chest. and heaven knows how
many other organizations.

How Invitations 10 Two Marriage
Services should be Worded
BY EMILY POST

When the wording OF any form
ally-engraved invitation must be
adapted to unusual requirements.
the only rule to follow is TO say
whatever is necessary as clearly
as you can. For the bride who
tells me, we are going to be
married first in my own church.
and Immediately afterward in the
bridesroom's church because we
are of different religions" I would
suggest that the invitations be
worded as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Johnson
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter

For Morning Wedding
Dear Mrs. Post: Is lace inap-
propriate for morning wear when
the occasion is very special? 1t is
my daughters wedding. and il will
be at ten o'clock in the morning.
IN church followed by reception.
Answer: A bride may wear lace,
particularly that which is a family
heirloom, at no matter what hour.
However, she should try to make
the effect as simple as possible.
Meaning that lace combined with
net or null or organza is better
than with satin. If the special
occasion" means big wedding
with high mass-satin would be
suitable.
