taking place during these
summer months, I think the
following letter from a read
or is most apropos.
She writes: During the
last few months I have at
tended several wedding re-
ceptions. All Of them, with
out exception. were spoiled
by the presence Of small
children. These youngsters,
most Of them under seven
years Of age, played games,
chased each other in and out
Of the crowd and generally
made nuisances Of them
selves. I saw several I'M
fortunate guests spill punch
down the front Of their gowns
when jostled by the children.
THE brides train, at one
reception, was almost torn
of when a child stumbled
over it in the excitement Of
q chase. 1t would seem to me
that parents would have
sense enough not to bring
young children to a wedding
reception, even If the invita-
ton stupidity included them.
Is there any way that 1t
could be indicated on an in
vitation that children under
q certain age be left at home
where they belong?"
Lack Of Consideration
I am in complete sympathy
with this readers lament.
Unfortunately there is no
way in which parents can be
asked courteously to leave
the youngsters at home when
they attend a wedding re-
:eption. Frankly, parents
who presume to inf1ict noisy
youngsters on the guests at
this adult celebration should
be severely censured. In my
opinion, it shows a complete
lack Of consideration for
others.
While Junior may be
mothers little darling. there
is a time and place to show
him of. A wedding reception
Ii definitely neither one!
To begin with, an invita-
ton addressed to Mr.. and
Mrs. John David Smith"
does not include the children.
If by chance the phrase land
family" (Which is. Of course,
incorrect) happens to be in
cluded, this still should not
indicate that children under
IS years Of age should be
taken to the reception.
Only in Church
There are, of course, cases
where close members of the
family have small children
they wish to be present.
That's all very we'll and good,
but the thoughtful relative
will take them to the church
to see the ceremony, and that
should be that. Arrange
ments should then be made
for the children to be cared
for somewhere else, I need
not add while the reception
is in progress.
AS there would seem to be
many thoughtless parents,
who do bring Junior and
Sally, perhaps the hostess at
a wedding reception would
be wise to make arrange
mentS beforehand to have
someone delegated to take
over the care of the young
sters in another part Of the
building than that in which
the reception is being held.
In fairness to her guests,
this is the only course for
the hostess to pursue as long
as parents fail to observe the
sensible rule Of leaving chill
dren at home. where they be-
long, when they themselves
attend a wedding reception.

Gold, Silver Mining 2 Promised Brighter
 Future by Experts

SPOKANE, LR - The future looks bright for gold and silver, the Northwest Mining Association was told Friday.
 Speakers said the two precious metals, mainstays of the Western mining boom in the late 18th cen tury, are staging a comeback.
 "Silver, I believe, will soon be- come of prime importance to the optimistic miner and investor, ? said Clark l.. Wilson, vice presi- dent of the New Park Mining Co. of Salt Lake City.
 He said new uses are being found for silver in industry and it's use for jewelry is growing with the nations increasing pop ulation.
 The president of British Colun- bias largest gold producing firm, Franc R. Joubin of Bralorne Pio- neer Mines, predicted the admin istration elected in the United States in 1860 will raise the price of gold.
 Barring unforeseen interna- tional incidents" Joubin said, "the administration in 1860 will be one that has shown sympathy and courage on the same question before I believe the increase will be substantial"
 Joubin didn't say whether he was talking about the Republicans or the Democrats.

5-Year-Old Killed in Heavy l.. A. Traffic

LOS ANGEL LES, R - It took a boy to convince authorities that a stop light won't do the work of a crossing guard.
 But the boy had to die doing it..
 The guard was removed Mon day from an intersection in sub- urban Highland Children at the nearby school were carefully in structed how to work the push button light.
 Five-year-old Calvin Landau did it just the way they'd told him to. Principal Olin Graves was watching.
 ''He got as far as traffic is- land, and then he must have pan- icked," Graves said. "He started to run back and ran in front of a car"
 One hundred mothers picketed the crossing Friday.
 The crossing guard was or dered back on duty.

Space Monkey Sam OK After Dizzy Rocket Spin

NORFOLK, Va, tR - Sam, the space monkey, came ashore Sat urday, alive, chipper and an hon. orary member of the destroyer's crew which plucked him from the Atlantic Ocean after 55-mile high rocket ride.
 Sam and the Project Mercury capsule in which he took his dizzy spin arrived at this port city aboard the destroyer Erie The capsule is the kind future space men will ride in their first at tempts to orbit the earth
 The destroyer had fished Sam and the capsule from 12-foot-high waves about 12O miles off the North Carolina coast three hours after they were zoomed aloft by Little Joe rocket from Wallops Island, Va, Friday.
 The monkey was met by Major Cloid Green, an Air Force phy- sician from the Aviation School of Medicine at Brooks Air Force Base, San Antonio, Tex. Imme- diately he was carried, still en- cased in small cylindrical cham Der and covered with a blanket, to Langley Air Force Base, Va. From the Langley laboratories of the National Aeronautics and Space Agency he's due to be flown to Brooks
 After Sam and his capsule were removed from the Berie, ships officers and men and NASA off cials said he was nightly lively and very hungry when released from the capsule.
 Sam was taken to the ships hospital where he ate, scratched his head and seemed pleased to see humans about him. The ships crew filed past the sick bay, looked at Sam, and he looked back. Sam was made an honorary destroyerman and was given card to prove it.
 Principal purpose of the pro- ject, as far as NASA was con- cerned, was to test at high alti- tude the escape system of the capsule. NASA, as spokesman said, merely permitted Sam to go along for the ride at the re- quest of the School of Aviation Medicine.

should be read out of their party
