Many Guests on Vacations Come and Go
Household Routines Give Way to Constant Stream of Visitors
BY BEATRICE BURGAN . Beciety Editor Excitement prevails in many households as guests come and go. Summer is a season when any member of the family is likely to, pack up at a moment's notice to be; off on a vacation. Perhaps a quiet rest in the country spells enchantment for one person, while another becomes obsessed with a yearning for the excitement of a metropolis. Prospect of a restful vacation at Mrs, J. Otis Adams’ home in Brookfleld was tempting to Mrs. Robert B. Adams and her mother, Mrs. Robart Sheffield, Los Angeles, who have gone there with Mrs. Wendell Sherk. Mr. and Mrs. William Beck welcomed the visit of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hosmer Morse, Dallas, Tex., formerly of here. Mrs. Morse and her son, Robert H. Morse III, left Saturday for the East and Mr. Morse returned to Dallas. Mrs. Morse and her son are to visit Exeter where Robert is to enroll next fall, Mrs. Daniel L. Layman’s praise of California proved irresistible to her brother, David Vawter Burns, for he is to drive her to her home in Pasadena. They are to leave Saturday following Mrs. Layman’s extended vigit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lee Burns. While here Mrs, Layman had as a guest Mrs. William Fuller, formerly Miss Virginia Smith, Westfield, Mass. Mrs. Fuller has visited here frequently and was Mrs. Layman'’s classmate at Abbott Academy. Mrs. Albert J. Beveridge Jr. has her mother, Mrs. Roger L. Scaife, Milton, Mass., with her for a visit. Mrs. Robert H. Tyndall has decided to take a trip to New York since her daughter, Miss Ruth Tyndall, is to go there before sailing on the Queen Mary for a trip abroad. Mr. and Mrs. Evans Woollens Jr. will be leaving soon for their annual visit to Burt Lake, Mich. While there they expect to have Miss Emily Moores, Cleveland, as a visitor, Miss Moores went to Fort Wayne Saturday to attend the wedding of her brother, Charles Moores, and Miss Margaret Jones. Mrs. Frank L. Bihnford has been to French Lick for a short vacation. Mrs. Thomas Noble Jr. has joined her family in Canada.

Dashing Diplomat of Ecuador Enjoys Return to West Point
Times Special WASHINGTON, June 17.—Capt. Colon Eloy Alfaro, Minister oi Ecuador, is known as the most dashing diplomat in Washington. He dashes everywhere—from Panama to Ecuador to New York to Washington. At the moment, dashing Alfaro has just returned from West Point, where he went to present a saber awarded by the Ecuadorean government to the outstanding cadet of the American Military Academy. Presentation of the saber is to be an annual ceremony beginning this season. The cadet who receives it is selected by the superintendent of the academy. This year the cadet " chosen was Cadet Capt. S. W. Holdernes, regimental adjutant. “It always gives me a thrill to return to West Point,” grinned Capt. Alfaro, as he came back to Washington after presenting the saber. “You know, I am a graduate of the Military Academy.” As a graduate of West Point, the still youthful minister has kept up the military tradition in his family. By virtue of a special act of Congress, two of Envoy Alfaro's sons— Elroy, 18 years old, and Jaime, 17, have been admitted to West Point. They are now third classmen. “I hardly d .a chance to see them this time, though,” said Alfaro. “They are so busy with studies.” Note: The Ecuadorean government now presents three annual awards to other nations—the saber to West Point and military medals to Chile and Bolivia. The saber is the regulation saber used by field officers in the Ecuadorean army and is described by Minister Alfaro as “a beautiful weapon.” : Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr, 1s doing well on the junior varsity at Har- © vard are you getting on?” a sked him. “Marvelously,” replied Franklin. _ “You see, I'm the only Democrat on ‘the crew.

tical: enough to look well under her going-away hat. If you are going to march to the altar in formal gown and flowing veil, take the veil with you
when you go to have your hair:
washed and waved the day before
the ceremony. Let your coiffure
man suggest arrangements that harmonize with the shape of the veil you have chosen, then pick one which suits you best.

tume. Anyway, on this, your day.
of days, super-sophisticated effects are not in order. Every one expects you to look sweet and demure, so why disappoint them? Most bridal coiffures are done up with soft ringlets or vide waves. If you have picked a halo veil which is to be worn quite far back on your head, framing your face and allowing the sides as well as the front of your hair to show, consider coiffures that are sleek on top.
This way, the veil molds your head, |
and curls at front and sides are allowed to show.
Flower on Veil
Flowers generally are arranged across the veil—not in the hair. Jeweled clips, stars, pins and other formal evening doo-dads are not to be considered. Don’t select a hairdress that depends on the veil to keep it from falling down or apart. Remember that you'll want to look nice in your going-away bonnet. For this reason, it’s a good idea to let your hairdresser see the new hat as well as the veli before he starts to fix waves, curls and swirls. For long hair, coronet braids, pinned flat against the head just in front of the line where the edge of the veil will be, are charming. Otherwise, low buns are better than piled-high Grecian effects which are likely to make the veil look wrinkled and bumpy at the back.
GOOD WILL CLASS MEETS TOMORROW
Mrs. John R. Hein is to be honored at a meeting of the Good Will Class, First Evangelical Church, at 2 tomorrow at the home of Mrs. Henry Stienecker, 233 N. East-st. Other hostesses are to be Mesdames Louis Kriel, Robert Tanell, William Smith and Harry Krempler.

Wearing Hats Suggested to Protect Eyes
Respect for Power of Old Sol Urged — by Writer. =
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON . : Times Special Writer ] Get out the hats, any old hats, as long as they have brims and won't blow off at a puff. a The other day I passed several groups of little children. There was no cloud or fleck of cloud in the sky and the sun beat down like a blacksmith with a grudge. Only one bunch ‘had pique or! light straw hats on. They were! sitting in a row on a hot step that made me squirm to look at. But youngsters sit anywhere and they, seemed to be perfectly unconscious}
I guessed those little eyes were hot and strained, that cerebrums were about ready for breading, and that some of them would surely be sick to the stomach about supper
Exceptions No Rule “Well,” says Mrs. Smith or Mrs. Jones or Mrs. Brown, “My children never think of wearing hats, and they are never sick.” And. that's right, too.” It ceryour Sonny's could well roof the bailiwick of a trapper.

Every mother knows pretty well what her children can stand by results, and uses, on the whole, very good judgment. I only happened along at high noon, that boiling day, and what did I know? But when I had to close the car windows to keep the heat out, it just naturally worried me to see young skulls subjected to such heat waves. Light May Cause Squint And I am death on eyes. I can’t and don’t see how optic nerves can stand uninterrupted glare. In fact, they do resent it; thus the squint that can so easily become habitual | in a child. Once in the tropics I bought a hat—a Gautamala hat. Size from brim-edge to brim-edge, 40 inches. It symbolizes something to me, those straw purples and raspberries, the fact that natives of hot lands, unless very dark-skinned, wear sombreros of dimensions. This was a “show-hat” but at that the every-day chapeau of the native measured from 20 to 30 inches as the crow flies. And I was in six lands. I know. Those people know the sun. And our own sun in June gets pretty tropical. Skipping all the violet rays and infra-red lore of the scientists. and the actinic power of old Sol, especially on high land, still and all there are mysteries we might respect if not understand. i A couple of straps and a hat: There you are, Sonny, all dressed for the oven. ‘Now go out and play and keep- under the rubber plant | if you can. ; Haat

Rehearsal Is Important Item
1 Prenuptial
Preparations;
All Except Bride Take Part
Tradition Calls for Young Lady to Sit on Sidelines and Direct Party; Correct Procedure Is Outlined.
BY MARIAN YOUNG Times Special Writer The more guests that have been invited, the miore important it is that a wedding be rehearsed carefully a day or two beforehand, so every participant will know exactly what to do and when. Certainly if there are to be more than 10 guests, a rehearsal is imperative. It's supposed to be bad luck for the bride to participate in the re hearsal, so she sits on the sidelines and directs. Her mother or one of the bridesmaids plays her part. All others; including the musicians and bride’s father, do exactly what they are supposed to do at the wedding
itself. marriage service is not read. On the wedding day ushers should arrive at least 45 minutes before the appointed hour. White carnations or gardenias are provided for them by the bridegroom.
Decide on Ushering.
They decide which are to conduct guests to the pews at the left of the center aisle, where family and friends of the bride are to sit. The others will offer their arms to relatives of the bridegroom, who will be seated-in front pews at the right of the aisle. These reserved pews are roped off with white satin ribbons. Guests are supposed to arrive on time, and, five minutes before the bride enters, every one should be in his seat. Maids, matrons of honor and the mother of the bride arrive five minutes before the appointed hour and wait in the vestibule. Just as the bride and her father get to the church, the head usher conducts the mother to her seat. This is the signal for guests to rise and remain standing. Next the clergyman comes to the altar. The bridegroom and his best man enter from the chancel and take their places at the right of the altar, with the best man at the bridegroom's right.
Then Ushers Follow
The music then swings into the wedding march for the bridal procession. The door of the vestibule is opened. The ushers start slowly toward the altar, two by two, four paces apart. The bridesmaids follow, also two by two, stepping with the music. The maid of honor walks alone, followed by the flower girls and the little ringbearer. The bride, on the right arm of her father, is last in the procession. As the ushers approach the pulpit they separate. One of each pair goes to the right, the other to the left. The maidg do the same, and together they form a semi-circle before the altar, with matron of honor standing a little to the left. The fier girls separate, too, but do not join the semi-circle. They wait, one near each front pew, until the service is over. Then they precede the bride and groom in the exit march.
Bride Escorted by Father
The bride’s father brings her on his right arm to e bridegroom, who places her right hand on his left arm: and leads: her to the clergyman. The bride hands her boutuet-fo the matron of honor. The father: steps” backward a bit and waits. When the minister asks, “Who giveth this woman?” he steps forward, signifying assent in the anner customary in the church ere the marriage service is perormed. He then joins the bride's mother in her. pew. If the bride’s mother is to give her away, the bride walks to the altar unescorted. When the minister asks “Who giveth this woman?” the mother steps forwara from her pew, says the necessary words or makes the. necessary motions, then returns to her seat. At conclusion of the ceremony, the matron of honor returns the bride's bouquet. The bridegroom puts his new wife’s left hand through his right arm and they leave the church. The flower girls, preceding them, scatter rose leaves and other flower petals in their path. The maids then the ushers, follow.
Even the clergyman is asked to attend rehearsal.
However, the
Guests remain standing in their pews until two of the ushers return, remove the ribbons along the aisle and escort the mother of the bride and the mother of the bridegroom from the church. :
Wedding in Garden
For a wedding in a garden or drawing room, an altar just in front of a bank of flowers or flore ist’s greens generally is constructed, It is not necessary to provide chairs for the guests. Just before time for the ceremony,
two attendants (these can be a
younger brother and sister of the bride), carrying rolls of white satin ribbon, come in from stairway or door from which the bride and her father will enter. One end of each roll is attached to the entrance doorway. The attendants fasten the other ends to two poles or the backs of two chairs about five feet in front of the improvised altar. The ribbons separate the guests §and form an aisle down which the wede ding party can march. From then on, the rules of cor= rect procedure are the same as for a church ceremony. When the minister has pronounced the couple man and wife, instead of making an immediate exit, they linger to receive congratulations from the guests and to -go on to the room where, the wedding breakfast is to be served. :
PINCH OF SPICE IMPROVES FOOD
From soup to nuts, there is nothing on the dinner menu that a
.pinch of spice can’t transform. Here
are a few suggestions. Clam chowder needs thyme, a bay leaf and caraway seeds as much as it needs clams. Beef stew takes on a banquet flavor when cooked with a small quantity of pickling spices. Boiled potatoes make you forget calories when cooked in salted water with two bay leaves, then rolled in a mixture of melted butter and paprika. Chocolate desserts such as puddings, cakes and pies are improved by adding a pinch of ground cloves.
CARE REQUIRED IN COLOR SELECTION
Colored gloves, smart though they are, never should be matched to more than one or two other ac= cessories. For instance, if you are wearing a navy blue sheer ensemble, yellow gloves and a yellow scarf would be effective. Don’t, however, add a yellow bag or a yellow hat. Instead, get a blue hat, shoes and bag. If you want ‘to introduce some other color, a dubonnet or white hat with shoes and bag to match would be nice.
EVENING JACKETS OF SWISS ORGANDY
Swiss organdy jackets and coats are fashion’s newest answer to what to wear over dinner or dance frocks when the evening is hot. Clearly transparent and ultra feminine, these are cool and comfortable, yet cover up back and shoulders enough to keep you from feeling out of place on the street or in the car.
