Another young woman near here deciding to combine practicality with beauty wore a street dress | while her bridesmaids trailed in| argandy. y That's what Miss Marie Coudert | Brennig, president of the Wedding Embassy, Inc.,, New York, combats. Miss Brennig is at Ayres today consulting with local brides-to-be. She discusses every detail from the moment one’s young man's moiher comes to call until rice has ceased to spatter out of clothing taken from the wardrobe. “Simplicity is the kevnote for modern weddings,” said Miss Brennig. “The bride no longer is dressed to resemble a Christmas tree. Flowers and decorations must not overshadow the bridal party and no more money should be spent than the bride and her family can afford.” Budgets Prepared
In her book, “The Wedding Embassy Year Book” distributed Oy Ayres, Miss Brennig has prepared budgets for young women of different means. Of $300, $50 should be spent on the bridal outfit; $137.50 for personal trousseau; $25, wedding refreshments; $37.50, announcements, and $50, household trousseau. If one has $600, she suggests that $100 go for the bridal outfit; $300 for personal trousseau; $25, refreshments; $75, announcements, and $100, household trousseau. In a $1000 wedding, approximately $150 should go ror the bridal outfit; $350, trousseau; $125, goingaway costume; $75, announcements: $100, wedding breakfast; $150, household trousseau, and $50, bridesmaids’ gifts, Details are important in a perfect wedding, Miss Brennig said. She advised, among other things, that the bridegroom keep an extra collar button in case the original gadget develops wanderlust; that a short girl beware of medieval gowns and that the moon-faced bride avoid chin-straps that make her look like an animated cherub,

Tips on Staging Flower Shows Are Presented
One hundred delegates to the Judging School this morning at the Marott Hotel heard instructions for staging successful flower shows.
The school precedes the Garden Club of Indiana's seventh annual convention tomorrow. Mrs. © W. Dynes, Chicago, president ot the National Council of State Garden Clubs, with headquarters at New York, discussed “Knowledge Necessary for Judging Specimen Flowers and Plants.” “Specimen flowers and plants should be judged on their merits and faults; standard of excellence in relation to the locality where the plant was grown; variety, height, and color; quality, ture and keeping qualities; growing habits and condition,” Mrs. Dynes said. If the judge is careful, specimen blooms are judged on their own intrinsic values and not on their shipping qualities, she declared. Mrs. Clarence Hughel, local flower authority affiliated with the Irvington Garden Club, urged that every state club sponsor a flower show. She talked on “Correct Staging and Making Schedules for a Flower Show.” “The purpose of a flower show is

Tea Useful For Pick-Up About 4 P.M:
Served to Employees in Many Offices; Must Not Be Boiled.
By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX Tea is lots more than just some= thing hot to drink. Try it some time about 4 in the afternoon when you feel fagged. Many American offices are now serving it to their employees because it picks them up and gives them a “second wind” on their work.
All tea in the United States is imported and must pass Government standards, Tea is classified into three general divisions. There are the black or fully fermented, the green or unfermented, and the oolong or semifermented teas. Americans drink mostly the black type, the bulk of it coming from Ceylon, India, Java, Sumatra, For= mosa, China and Japan, according to the Department of Agriculture. Black tea is separated into five grades — Flowery Orange Pekoe, Orange Pekoe, Pekoe, Pekoe Souchong and Souchong. These terms do not have any specific reference to the cup quality of the Lew. Tea should be kept in a dry, fairly cool atmosphere. The container should be of some material that does not absorb flavors and odors—preferably of metal. The composition of a cup of tea varies both with the tea and the way it is made. Tannin, caffeine, and the volatile ofls are the most important constituents of tea. Tannin gives tea a brisk, pungent flavor, caf= feine provides mild stimulation, Many persons believe that the vola=tile oils make the most difference in tea flavor. The “body of a cup” of tea depends on the soluble materials that come out into the liquid as the tea steeps. Better make tea in a pot of earthenware, pd®reelain or glass, Scald the pot first. One teaspoon of tea is the standard measurement per cup, but it makes a fairly strong infusion. Water for tea must be freshly drawn. If water is boiled too: long it gives a flat taste. If water is allowed to stand on tea too long, tannin is extracted and the tea tastes bitter. Never boil tea. Let it steep from 3 to § minutes for best results.
