OLD-CLOTHEs MAN

Edgar Daniel Kramer in The New York Times) The tinkle of his bell
 The shuffle of his feet And the old-clotheS nan Falters down the street. Like bit of fog, Blown from the bay ... So he totters on,
 Old and ghostly gray. Some folks come to buy. Some folks come to sell When they hear the sound Of his magic bell. Oh! hear them laugh, While I sit and sigh, For the old-clotheS man Is Fate passing by.

Richard Neiis Weds
Miss Shirley Presser

Mr. and Mrs. Walter Neils re-
turned-to Libby Friday from Oak
land, Calf, from whom we were
able to learn more details of the
marriage of their son Richard to
Miss Shirley Presser, in Oakland,
on June II.
One unusual characteristic of the
simple but lovely wedding cere-
mony was that the officiating
clergyman, The Rev. George Mieger,
also officiated at the marriage of
the bridegroom's parents.
The setting for the wedding was
the Zion Lutheran church in Oak
land, and the time was o'clock
p. m, on SATURDAY., June II. The
church was prettily decorated for
the occasion. Among the decorations
one noticed tall candelabra with
seven white candles in each, gradu-
ated in size; tall wrought iron stands
held large bouquets of huge white
gladiolas, and palms.
The bride was very attractive in
a floor length dress of white lace
and net, with a fingertip veil She
carried small white Bible with
orchid and white streamers with
bouvardia blossoms tied to the ends
and with the streamers running
through the Bible.
The raid of honor was Miss Pris-
ella Ullman, college friend of the
bride from Stanford University,
Palo Alto. She wore a floor length
gown Of Turquoise blue lace and net
and short Turquoise blue veil. She
carried large old-fashioned bou-
Quet of rose colored double mar
guerites filled with loops of rose
satin ribbon and with short stream
erS.
Herbert Neils, brother of the
bridegroom, acted as best man.
Mrs. Neils, the bridegroom's
mother, sang, 20 Perfect Love- by
Louise Stairs. Only relatives and a
few friends were present at the
wedding
Following the ceremony, we'd
ding dinner was served at the Pied
mont hotel in Oakland, at which a
lovely brides cake added the Gus
tomary touch of festivity to the af-
fair. The couple left for San Fran
cisco for a few days after which
they planned to return to Davis,
Calf, where they will be at home
at 1l6 D street until September.
The bridegroom was rursuine his
university studies at the breaking
out of war, which were temporar-
lily terminated when he went into
the army Since that time he has
been stationed at different places
in training, part of that time in
Stanford University. He has a wide
circle of friends in the community
who will wish him and his bride
every happiness.

and found the only Red Cross club
in town. There were few soldiers
throughout the large room, lazily
dunking doughnuts, nothing else for
them to do
The bed was SO soft and big, we
slept til II o'clock. Our landlady
brought up two small pitchers Of
hot water for us to wash in. Hot
water in taps is thing Of the past
or future for these people
They were amazed at the canned
goods we had. They said they hadn't
had those things in SO long, they
didn't miss them anymore. It
would take one persons rations for
the summer to get one can of sal
mon. They had never tasted corn
before, which struck me as funny,
but on second thought, how could
corn grow without sunshine?
We (the girls and their escorts)
walked around a couple Of hours.
The scenery was lovely. There were
a lot of people out as it was Sunday,
and sunny day. There were big
white swans swimming around look
ing for handout. Big yachts were
making pleasure trips up and down
the river. The castle is one one side
of the river and most of the village,
and on the other side is famous
Elton college. There were a lot of
Elton boys around in their black
pin-striped trousers, tailed coats, and
foolish looking tall black hats.
We went up by the castle to get
a good view of it. 1t is well guard
ed, and big iron gate and fences
keep people off the grounds. Buck
ingham palace is here in London,
and the king and queen spend time
at both places.
The town of Windsor itself was
something to see. Ihe streets were
of stone and narrow and winding.
The sidewalks are not wide enough
for two people, SO if you meet some
one, either you or they have to
step out in the street to let the
other one pass. The homes are all
smaller than ours and look quaint.
Have no porches, and of course are
all brick. They call a wooden house
a shack
Some important things have TAX
en- place since yesterday as your
radio and newspaper will tell, but
we don't. talk about that; anyway
not in letters. / imagine it was big
news for you people, too. Every
one is going about their work as
usual, though people are waiting
for papers down on the street.

Low Point Meat Cuts
Available

One of biggest worries is plan
ming meals that stretch points. Jes-
sic Alice Cline, home economist,
says that reading the point value
chart from the bottom to the top
is one way to notice the large selec-
ton of low-point meats available.
For many homemakers, another
meal planning worry is keeping the
family well-fed, despite rationing.
Miss Cline offers the assurance that
all meats, regardless of point value,
has approximately the same high
quality protein, vitamins and min
erals.
"A meal planned around stuffed
Lamb shanks, delicious meat dish,
is one suggestion taken from the
bottom of the point value chart
Stuffed Lamb Shanks
6 lamb shanks
2 tablespoons lard

Brown meat in hot lard. Add
cups water and seasonings. Cover
and allow to simmer about liz
hours, or until tender. Remove meat
from broth. When cool enough to
handle remove bones from the meat
without breaking the meat more
than necessary. Cook barley in

ed. Stuff boned shanks with cooked
barley. Place in baking dish. Add
