More typical still fa! the sight of miles and miles of Orchards, misty white or faintly lose, with fragrant blossoms that . meet to form arches a3 far down as the trees etend. Y One day when it is a bit foggy the plowed earth has a purplish hax that brings the fragile blos tonls Into sharper contrast.

M ss Hazel K. Downing whose marriage Monday to William Braxton Georg?. Jr.. of Missoula. Mont., was an event of much n terest was the most recent hridt to be taken from Salem. Just a short time before her Miss Mar lore Kay pl'ghted her troth to Hollis Huntington, and left short ly afterwards for Anaconda, Mont, to take up her residence". Looking back a bit farther there was M ss Marjorie Marvin, who left' upon her marriage to Friti slade for Salt Lake City to make her home. Another popular Salem j rl was Miss Althea Moores. who i now Mrs. Robert C. Kinney of Astoria. Then there was Mis Loueen Moorland. who made her home In Salem for several year? where she was popular socially, but who left for Portland wh'ii she became the bride of Chester Moores. There were the charming Jone girls of Lablsh Meadows, who fig ured prom nently In every impor tant social affa'r n Salem, hut who left one by one as their mar riages took them elsewhere. M's? Marguerite Erati was another who left for Portland, where she has resided ever s'nee. followlpg her marriage to Joteph Rothschild. Miss A 1 ie?

There Is si ght solace, however, in the thought that their forfeiture has been rather eenerouslv offset by the number of Interesting and attractive br des, whom Salem men have brouuht here to reside permanently. On Happiness Insurance Speaking cf wddincs. did yo-.i ever hear of "Hanpines insur ance?" Well, it's the 'dot" that an American father gives his Hnnehfer upon her marriage. ThH i- not like the dot th; t ,a French bride (rets, for her husband get her dot as well as herself. The American father who wish es to insure his daughter's mar ried hanpiness gives her an in come which must e hers abso lutely and in no wie subject to her husband's control. Then she will probablv be treated with con sideration, for sh will be inde pendent, and if she is not treated with consideration she can Rain her independence. Happiness in surance is a goodly income which is a woman's own all through Wfe. A New Custom- stiii another item about wed-j dines: Hice and n'd rhoes are I to be relegated to fhe past, bride ; and bridegroom to be pelted with i petals of floral sweetness instead j of the former articles. No bride ! tikes old shoes and rice. I fancy. ! and here in Oregon, w here w e I have petals and to spare, thre j seems to be no reason whv t i newer rn-tom should not be made a prevailing one. i On Wedding Gifts weddings are synonymous toliliink for ner.-eii. assert net in- gifts. and while we are on the j subject, here is a storv that bears re-telling: Not long ago a young married woman whose wedding gifts had not lost their luster, was notified tnat her presence was desired at the marriage of a friend, o fh" looked over her own assortment of bridal gifts and finally de cided on one of the nine silver sugar bowls in her collection. The only drawback to any of these was the handsome mono gram which had not been neglect ed on either of the nine. The voung woman had heard however, that a monogram could be erased so she hurried down to a silver smith with one of her sugar bowls The engraver took tho bowl and regarded ii curiously. 1 nen he said : "This monogram has beer, erased once; it can' be done again."

Presently the light was reward ed for childish trebles arose on "It Came Cpon the Midnight Clear." and "Oh! Little Town of Bethlehem. How Still We See Thee Lie." 1 Instantly one s thought Hew to the thousands who too, lay still where the signed armistice had come too late; to the shattered and broken hosts thai lay buried on the fields of Flanders! One found a peculiar similarity in the two groups of carolers on the two occasions, for both pro claimed the most Joyous messages that earth has ever known that of the birth of the Christ child and the announcement of the ris en Lord. They Do Not Forget This week under a New York date line, Mrs. XV. Everett Ander son manager of the Salem Musi cal bureau, and instrumental in bringing to Salem CeciJ Fanning celebrated baritone, who appeared with the Apollo club at Its recent concert received the following very interesting letter from M. B. Turpin, Mr. Fannlng's official ac companist: "You will be surprised by a letter from me, but last evening we received a letter from Mr. Lambert, now at Los Angeles, stating there was a prospect of your securing Mr. Fanning for one o' your next season's concerts. This has filled us with joy, for, in spite of the rain, while we were in Salem, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit there, and I hope tbe next time Mr. Fanning- will be in such a condition that he will show the good Sajem people what he really can do. "Th s life we lead Is an ever changing one and we have made such a great change during the last week that we cjftt scarcely get our bearings. "We have our passports for England, our passage paid tor. and many concert engagements made for us In London; a motor and chauffeur secured for three months, and our money in the banks of England, France and Italy, and, in spite of all this, last Thursday we decided not to go abroad until the' spring or 1922. "Foreign a'fairs are in such an unsettled state that after a con sultation with our manager, Dan iel MayeY, we concluded it was bst for us not to go to England until the spring of 1922. whei we expect to remain over there 18 months. "Instead of going abroad uy wife and I have decided to. take a furnished house in Victoria. .'. C, for the summer. Mr. Fanning wul join us there in June. My wife and I will start for Califor nia, April 7, via Los Angeles, pick ud our old chauffeur there, and en the rest of the wav by motor. If we pass through Salem we willt certainly look you up. "We are looking to Mr. Behy mer and Mr. Lambert to fill our time during October and Novem ber, as our eastern business De gins at Kansas City December first. "If you could have heard Mr. Fanning; sing last Thursday at Wilmington. Del., you would un derstand his growing popularity. Last week, also, he created a fur ore by his singing of 'Elijah with the Detroit Symphony orchestra. "How lovely it must be at Sa lem this month! You can imag ine my wife and I are looking for ward with keen pleasure to our trip along the Pacific coast during the spring." Memorial Poppies Again- Salem War Mothers have spon (led to the nppoal made cently by the "Poppy Lady France," and have sent for re-re-of a large number of the red silk pop pies made by the widows and or phans of French soldiers. and f n r W . .. . M . which are to be worn on Memor ial day in memory of those who died on "Flander3 Fields." The War Mothers are anxious that all Salem rejoin so that not only a memory may be honored but that the destitute in France may be a.ded. "I make this appeal, " says Mad. am Guerin. who is now in thi country, "to aid the children of devastated France the innocent victims of the war.- "France thought Germany could pay her indemnity, that each one of those families that had been ruined by the war would get its own and as French people are no beggars each ot them would lake the best care of their children. "Germany has not given a cent of indemnity.- In the northern part of France those poor people are still livinj? in their cellars, under tents, and under barracks built by the government. Men and women have worked liked slaves to reconquer their land, but without money you cannot build a home. "In memory of the sacrificed ones I am asking you mothers, wives, sisters and daughters to heln finish the work. "It will be an easy task If you will adopt and recognize the red ooppy as the memorial flower to be worn on decoration aay. ieu cents for a red poppy will cost no sacrifice to any one of us here, but they will be the factor which will not only carry on but finish the work over there. - "The American and French Children's league will have ten or fifteen million red silk popples made in France by these poor wo men and children of the destroyed part of France." If you want to help In this work, and are willing to buy a poppy, 'phone your order to either 163 or 95. A Permissable Repetition Of course everybody knows that "Shakespeare never repeats," but it's perfectly legitimate Tor anyone else to do so, especially If they have something as worth repeat ing as the following extract from the article "Accidents of Imper fection," by Anne Shannon Mon roe, which appears In this month's Good Housekeeping: "There Is so little of prepara tion for life, so little of philosophy taught our young people in the midst of all the marvelous effi ciency they are being given for doing things, that it is hardly fair to expect them to harmonize a Nu Bone Corsets for Stout, Medium and Slight Forms A.
