And 'then there waa Daddy and 'Aunt Bet with ideas about the Hvedding breakfast. Aunt Bet said she didn't see any sense in offend ing people and there were certain people who. Just had to be asked. So she had her way about the list. And Daddy Insisted upon Just one thing, plenty of champagne, and the best "And if you're married in church you can't have It perfectly bare," Aunt Bet said. - : So there were flowers. "Just tawny chrysanthemums good old plain, cheap chrysanthemums," Natalies said. "But lots of them." , They bad-lots of chrysanthemum-. And, of course, the bride's table, at borne, had to be gold and white. Yellow and white orchids would be best, and a few butterfly orchids ' and gardenias would do, but Natalie supposed pansies and gar denias would have to do. They compromised on the but terfly orchids. They only needed a few. Aunt Bet quarreled with the ca terers over the cakes and the food. "If you're going to do it," she said, "there's Just one way to do it, and than right Natalie hated to think of the family spending so much for her sake, but there didn't seem any .way out once it was started. 'Lane ntered right into the spirit of it waa their big splurge, so they t as well have things right be- ore they started starving to death. y the time you equipped the old car with new tires and had it over hauled you might as well buy a new one. The trailer was new. Heck, have a new car, too. And Aunt Bet and Daddy had to tret some things. It's a serious (thing, a big day, when your first tgiri marries, Alex Wickham told Jklarraret defensively, for be felt snore than a little conscience stricken about having a new morn ing coat made, but there would be (people whom they hadn't seen in (years, and it didn't do to took Shabby. 4 . It was a. perfect wedding, a per fect day. Margaret was prcud of all of them Daddy, in his morning coat and dark, striped trousers, handsome and courtly and distin guished; Aunt Bet, moving like a queen amongst her guests, and Natalie, who bad made no mistake 3n the French blue suit with the icart-wheel hat, and Lane's orchids, ithe smartest and gayest, if not the (most beautiful possible bride. - Sue, who had come in one of her jtrousseau dresses, rather clumsily imade over, was so upset by the picture Natalie made and the stud- Bed simplicity of the wedding that (she actually regretted the white (satin and lilies of her own. "That" she told her mother, "Is what I wanted. A simple suit But no, you dressed me up In the 10 yards of lace curtain and made me look like a monkey. Just because rrOU wanted white." . 1 "But darting.'' poor, fat tittle airs. Decker, whose feet hurt, said. " Tou WANTED white." , "Oh, I did nof Sue hlaaed. "And anyway, next time I'm going to wear a suit" " "Next timer Toa beard me!"

Sue's laughter, louder and louder rang above the "of the others. Her voice .hriiied above the babble of talk and lauehter.

Often A Bridesmaid By Hazel Livingston you can have a laundress when you're living ci $100 a month and have twins. No really we do live on $1Q0. Honestly. It's all Ken makes, isn't that crazy? I'm go ing to have some more chicken. We never have it home, so I eat like a farmhand whenever we go out anywhere. 'We can't afford anything decent and I Just can't eat things like ham burg and beans, so I tust lose weight and lose weight Look! Aren't I the living skeleton? Isn't it ridiculous?" Margaret saw Ken's face. She tried to get away from one of her father's old friends who was saying, "But why aren't you getting married? Why are you letting your little sister get ahead of you?" Four of Bab's sorority sisters, struggling through the crowd to wards the bride and the bride's bouquet, got between her suid Ken. Helpless, she saw him, white- faced, stony-eyed, bearing down on Sue. It all happened so quickly that Margaret couldn't be sure after ward of what was reality, and what she imagined. There was no doubt about Kerr intention. He was going to silence Sue if he had to knock her down, and drag her out to do it She saw Sue's flashing, laughing face, heard her high, shrill laugh ter, saw the faces of the listeners, their first sympathetic amusement, fading to embarrassment and shocked surprise. Sue was carry ing it .too far, it was no longer funny, she was behaving scandal ously at Natalie's wedding! Margaret saw what nobody else seemed to see Kenneth bearing down on Sue, ready to say or do something that would fan the flame Into a conflagration. "Please" she said "please " But nobody moved. She couldn't push her way to them. And while she stood, frozen with fear of what seemed certain to happen, she saw Joe forcing his way toward Ken neth. He bad Kenneth by the arm, he was saying something about drink ing to the bride.' He might have been air, for all the attention Ken paid to him. Just one more person to be pushed aside. But Joe wasn't an easy person to push aside. He was bigger than Ken, and he must have been stronger, for somehow be got an arm around Ken and a hold on him, and Just when it seemed that there would be a scuf fie and blows. Perry Dryer and an other man came op and helped. They managed very welL It looked, at worst like two or three friends helping a brother who bad had too much wedding champagne. But Margaret bad seen Ken's face, purple and distorted. She had seen the hurt, and fear, and hate, in it and the shame when Joe and the others carried him off like a child in a tantrum. She was ashamed for him. and even though she knew that Joe had saved the day, had saved Kea and Sue, from certain scandal and pos sible tragedy, she almost hated him because be had witnessed Ken's weakness. When he came to her later, his deeply bronzed face red with em barrassment his eyebrows lifted questionably, she almost melted. She almost forgave him for what he'd done, and what he knew about Ken. t - "Sorry If X made It worse. X was scared, Maggie. I got a crazy no tion he was going to knock her down, or kin her or something" If she'd only let It go at that! She wanted to, but something per verse in her wouldn't let her. She was tired and half-sick from the strain. She'd been hurt, and she had to hurt someone else. Let's not talk about It!" she said.- - His face straightened, and a lit tle muscle In his mouth twitched. "Just as you say, Maggie." He turned away, She meant to Active Bidding For Gold Seen Strikes, Unsettlement of Exchange Are Cited as . Causes of Trend (By the Associated Press). Trading in foreign security and commodity markets evoked com paratively little interest yesterday, but London financial circles were stirred by a recurrence of active bidding of gold for hoarding and traders on the Paris Bourse op erated cautiously because of wide spread industrial strikes and for eign exchange unsettlement. In the London open market the price of gold was pushed up to 149 shillings nine pence an ounce (equal to $34.80), a record high compared with the previous peak of 149 shillings four pence on June 3, 1935. A concomitant large demand for dollars boosted the exchange rate to 14.64$. to the pound, a rise of 2H cents. Gold bought in the open market amounted to the equivalent of about $4,742,280. The principal demand for the metal came from the continent, traders reported. A hesitant tone on the Paris Bourse was attributed to the la bor unsettlement and desire to traders to ponder the effects of the Bank of France discount rate reduction to 2 per cent from. 3 per cent and newly adopted mone tary policies of the Daladier gov ernment. French securities had a heavy tone, while international issues re mained steady. Worries over the labor unrest were reported tem pered in some degree by confi dence of further progress in the move for better international re lations. Alfalfa Demand Slow PORTLAND. Nov. 22.-UP)- Abundant supplies of home grown forage created a slow demand on the northwest alfalfa market for the week ending yesterday. Continued cold weather, how ever, was expected to result In more inside ' feeding. foUow. She meant to say some thing else, to show that she bad understood, that she really did ap preciate it, but some strange people besieged her, and then Aunt Bet signaled that she waa wanted up stairs. When she came down. Ken and Sue and Mrs. Decker had left Ken had hurt his wrist someone said, tussling with a couple of! fraternity brothers. It was broken, she learned later,) Joe had broken it They Joked about it but the old friendship was never the same aft er that Sue still filled her house with gay, half rowdy parties. Joe and Margaret still went and out wardly they were the same merry foursome they'd always been. But you could feel a difference in Ken's attitude toward Joe, and Joe was, a little shy and self-conscious withi Ken. Margaret suspected Sue of maJc-j ing the mffst of Joe's rescue of her, because she tried, harder than ever,! to win him back to the old careless j Intimacy, but Joe was on his guard! now. He was bantering and good-' natured as he had always been, but there was a coldness in his smiling' eyes. It was depressing enough, witht Natalie gone, and the house strangely empty without her. Babs, In spite of her warm heart and her gayety, was a secretive child. She went her way, brought her friends to the house, chattered, but said little. No one knew what she really thought what she want ed, what she dreamed for her fu ture. Tou couldn't talk to her. You couldn't talk to Aunt Bet You couldn't talk to anyone, anymore,) Margaret thought j And she wanted, so hungrily, toj talk. That is, to anyone but Ken Ken wanted, just as desperately, to talk to her. He wanted to justify, himself, to explain. Once, in spite of her maneuver ing not be alone with him, he be gan. "You see," he said, "you see what it's like with Sue now?" How can. I go on?" "People have to go on." She wanted to say You chose her! You wanted her well you've got her! . She wriggled, uneasily. "Be sides, you have a beautiful wife and a lovely home, and two adorable babies" "I have to take it from every side. Ms feels bad about the way we live. Sue's wastefulness and not storing anything up for a rainy aay. And at the store they all think I'm a sap, and they an bate me because of that kid Dad fired to put me on, and they figure I'm not worth what he's paying me, and they're right I hate it and I loathe it and TO never be any' good at It " .

Nov. 23 (AP) CS Dept. Agr. ) Very little business was being transacted in the Boston wool market to day. Buyers were showing very little inter est and most holders of wool were not making any effort to push sales. Quota tions were ateady on most kinds of do mestic wools. An occasional lot of fine territory wool, in original bags, was re ported available at prices slightly below levels at which the bulk of recent sales have been closed.

Wall street got little incentive for Thanksgiving out of the ac tion of the stock market here, for the list remained wedged In a rut for the fifth consecutive fcession. The drifting trading curren s turned to the upside for a change. Steels, coppers and mis cellaneous industrials attracted cautious buying and some short covering by recent sellers i the usual adjustment of speculative accounts before a holiday. Essentially, however, most markets, including bonds and leading commodities, presented a picture of inertia while financial circles pondered chances for more industrial recovery, running into 1939. Contribute to Upturn The day's ragged upturn in stocks was helped by improve ment in' sentiment toward copper shares on a return to interna tional restriction of production for the red metal, the Franco German peace pact, a check in the decline of European exchange rates In terms of the dollar and more evidence in mid-week trade statistics that the autumn busi ness revival still was makin? headway in some sectors. Electric power and railroad carloadings figures were better than analyists expected for the season.

NIoHT CoinU il VAM'A) i YAM'A Details Ready on '39 AAA Program Wheat Grants Apparently 5 Cents Higher Than for Past Year A 1939 federal farm program, differing In only, minor respects from that of 1938, has been form ally approved toy. the secretary of agriculture, making it possible for the state committee at Oregon State college to notify county committees of detailed provisions months earlier than it bad been possible to make such announce ments in previous years. This earlier announcement will enable farmers to give the 1939- program the first complete test of the provisions of the ag ricultural adjustment act of 1938, in the opinion of R, M. Evans, new AAA administrator. Fall wheat for 1939 has al ready been seeded, but the wheat acreage allotments had been previously approved and distrib uted to growers in advance of seeding time. Definite announcement regard ing wheat payments shows that for 1939 they will amount to 17 cents per bushel under the regular agricultural conservation provisions, as compared with 12 cents In 1938. In addition to the 17 cents conservation pay ment, there will also be avail able to cooperating growers a price adjustment payment of from 10 to 12 cents per bushel. The exact amount of this second payment cannot be determined until after January 31, 1939." All of the changes in the 1939 program are of an admin istrative. nature and are designed to simplify the program. Oats, barley, rye or flax may be used for a nurse crop for le gumes or perenniaL grasses and will not be classified as troll de pleting crops if these grains are cut for hay and a good stand of4 legume or grass is established in 1939.
