One of the most beautiful weddings that has ever occurred in Bay City took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Salon Schiffmann Wednesday evening at eight o’clock Dec. 2. 1914, when the second daughter Esther Florence was united in marriage to Archie Bcebehiser son to Mr. and Mr,. Jule Bcebehiser. The home was beautifully decorated in evergreen, ferns and white garl ands. Promptly at eight o’clock Miss Maud Moon began playing the wed ding march "Mendelsohn” when the bridal party entered the parlor and took their places under the beautiful decorated arch from which a white w edding bell was suspended. Little Delma Schiffmann, sister of the bride, acted as ring bearer, Zelpha Schiffmann also a sister of the bride, bridesmaid. Mr. Harley Witt as groomsman. • The bride wore a pretty gown _ of ivory satin and shadow lace trimmed with silver spangel trimming and carried a boquet of white chrysan themums, the bridesmaid wore a gown of white shadow lace over pink, the groom and groomsman were both attired in the conventional black. Rev D. Julian Becker the new pas tor of the Union Church of Bay City officiated. The ring ceremony was beautiful and impressive. After they had been pronounced husband and wife they were given hearty congratulation, by their r>- latives and many friends. ’■oilowing the congratulation, thi guest, were invited into the beautiful decorated dining room to 1 bountiful supper. After supper the guest, were shown the many pretty and useful »»resents a testimonial of affection, of then n any friends, who wish them hap pine,, and godspeed in their lovely new home in Bay City, Oregon.—Bay < •ty ity Examiner. Examiner The attendance at the second meet ing of the Woman’, Civic Improve ment Club, was evidence of keen in terest and appreciation of opportun ity by the women of Tillamook and vicinity. Owing to the lecture by Dr. Stuart, only a short session was held and no business transacted excepting the adoption of the Constitution and elec- tion of a treasurer and three director, Mr. Botts was chosen treasurer. Mrs. Whitehouse director to serve three years. Mrs. Schultz two years and Mrs. Terry one year. The directors, with the other officers form an Ex ecutive Committee of seven.

Dr.. Bertha M. Stuart’s lecture Fri day evening, Dec. 4, to the parcn, Teacher’s Association, was on th* subject of “Physical Training Girls." The following is a brief sen- mary of her talk. There is a tradition that a girl docs not need the exercise which a boy needs, and as a result, the girls’ body is not nearly so well developed as it should be. At the age of eleven a girl usually stops playing for feA’t o( being called a “tom-boy”, and she be gins to wear clothing which binders greatly her natural movements Is it any wonder that she becomes f|at chested, stoopshouldered and has nerves ? She has no occupation to develop her muscles or to stimulate her imagination. What does she do with the leisure time? At recess sh* walks around, giggles, and chews gum. After school she does about the same. In the evening she goes to the movies or to a dance hall. We should look out for the girls’ leisure time and should really con- struct her reaction. She should be giv en what she wants under the hast possible conditions. And what does she want? She wants exercise, and therefore, we should give her exercise Ot course, she should have as much » out-door exercise as possible, but in a rainy country this is not always pos sible, and the next best thing should be done. Some place where the girl can take exercise should be provided. A gymnasium is what is needed for the girls. Besides the regular physical exercise she would correct her pos ture, etc. She would gain much bene fit from team game, as basket ball, valley ball, etc. Such games have a ■ great mental value, for they teach one to exercise judgment and to think • quickly. The moral value of such games is also very great, for they teach courage, self control and fair play. Then there is a social value in such games, for there is taught a feel ing of co-operation, loyalty to the team, unselfishness, and a desire for • the good of the whole. A girl must take her place in the social world as well as a boy. How can she fill this position well if she has not a healthy body? Her mental and moral qualities depend upon her physical being. Therefore, as we wish a girl to grow up healthy in order to take her place among her fellow citi zens, she should look after her physi cal welfare. On Saturday afternoon at two- thirty Dr. Stuart talked to the girls of the high school and eighth grade. Her topic was physical hygiene deal ing with manner, conduct, morals and. ideals of young girls. She interested them immensely in out-of-door sports and created a great deal of enthu siasm regarding the formation of an “Oregon Trail Society” in Tillamook 1 his is a local organization similar to the national “Camp Fire Girls". A branch of the “Oregon Trail Girl," will probable be formed in Tillamook. Following her talk to the girls, Dr. Stuart addressed the "Womens' Civic League,” her topic was “The care of the girl,” one of the principal point, emphasized was that the girl should have a reasonable amount of exercise, out of doors if possible; otherwise in a well equipped gymnasium. She de clared that of all school buildings the gymnasium was the most important and should be first to be built. Near the close of her speech she spoke on matters of dress, advising mother, to clothe their daughters simple, appro priately and above all comfortably, maintaining that school girls dresses should be loose, convenient, and should allow freedom of move ment. Dr. Stuart closed with a few re marks regarding the girls’ social life. Young people demand society and allowed a reasonable should be amount providing it is not of harmful nature, which the mother should closely watch, guarding against late hours, banquets with rich indijeriible food, and other evils. She concluded that it was the mothers’ place to see that the girl had the right social idea, and if in doubt, to chaperon her daughter and ascertain for herself with what sort of young people ,he associate, and how she conduct, herself.
