Wellesley Students Are
The Misses Elizabeth Macey, Joan Caughran, Doris Woods and Marybelle Neal (left to right) are among students at Wellesley College who were guests today at the Christmas luncheon given by the local
First Lieut. and Mrs. Clarence on a wedding trip following their
Miss Martha Eckert, daughter of and formerly of Madison.
The candlelight ceremony was read by Dr. John B. Ferguson before a setting of Christmas evergreens, white gladioli and chrysanthemums. Miss Charlotte Moore, organist, and Beldon Leonard, violinist, played the bridal music. A candlelight satin gown fashjoned on princess lines was worn by the bride. She wore a gold cross and a shoulder length veil of ivory illusion falling from a cap of heirloom roseppbint lace caught by a cluster of bride's roses and freesias. The ivory prayerbook she carried was decorated with a spray of bride’s roses and freesias. Her only attendant was her sister, Miss Dorothy Eckert of Ann Arbor, Mich, She wore aqua blue taffeta and carried a muff of Talisman roses and gold japonica. Her Empire hat of roses had an aqua illusion veil.
Brother Is Best Man
Dr. Alvin Schaaf, Jamestown, was his brother's best man and Dr. Schaaf’s son, Billy, served as ring bearer. The bride's mother chose a powder blue crepe gown with
and gardenias. The bride traveled in a gold wool suit with matching hat and brown accessories. She is a graduate of Indiana University where she was a member of Chi Omega Sorority, Mortar Board and Pi Lambda Theta Sorority. She is a teacher at Thomas Carr Howe High School. Lieut. Schaaf, stationed at Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga., is a graduate of Indiana and a member of the American Society of Chemists and the Officers Reserve Corps.

BEAUTY
A REALLY FLAT CHEST is something to think about nowadays. One of our leading designers finds himself “sick of” dress bodices that look like bras, and he is cutting blouses straighter, which gives occasion for more natural curve. Then, here's an exercise expertly
recommended for developing the|l§
pectoral muscles which support the breasts. Sit or stand erect with arms up, elbows bent, hands in front of you at chest level with fingertips touching., Now, without putting any strain on muscles of the arms, lightly press fingertips together. When you do this correctly, you can see and fee! the pectoral muscles expand with the pressure of fingertips against fingertips. Do this 40 times a minute for two minutes every day. At the end of two months results should be
visible. » ® »
OF COURSE, frankly, exercise alone won't produce tremendous results in two months or umpth months. But it will help some, unless the flat-chestedness stems from a glandular or psychological malfunction, which calls for a physician’'s care. Swimming .is excellent exercise, too—it would be worthwhile to sneak off to a gym several times a week, if you can manage it. And one other comfort: Correct clothes will improve your appearance—including, oddly enough, the more naturally cut blouse. The dress-top that clings may accent, whereas the bratop may hide, just as surely as a mother-hubbard does, the natural curve.
Plan Dance :
The O-Del Club will sponsor a dance and card party at 8:30 o'clock tomorrow evening in the Five-O-Five-O Clubrooms at 211 N. Delaware St. Gilly Banta's orchestra will play.

Designed for an informal evening is a flattering twin print rayon, the same motif repeated in skirt and waist in reverse color, with an enormous contrasting \sash emphasizing the natural waistline and falling to the hemline in front.

We, the Women Let Husband Be Big Boss At Home
WHEN A MAN gets fed up with his boss and decides he is underpaid and under-appreciated, a wife’s natural reaction is to tell her husband he is exactly right. Not only that, women being wild-
cats at heart when any of their loved ones are attacked, the wife is likely to get more riled up over the situation than her husband. In that state of mind she convinces her husband that he is really the brains of the organization and that it would serve old so-and-so right if he would up and leave him. Thentheboss would realize piss what he had Miss ost. Millett There is something admirable in that kind of feminine reaction—but it usually isn’t very bright. It encourages a man either to.go on with his job feeling that he is being walked on, or it gets him keyed up enough to throw up the job just to show old so-and-so. And the man probably can't tfford to indulge in either method of nursing his pride. It might be, and probably is, very important to that family that its head find a more sensible solution to the problem. A woman should congol Rr resentment and help him
FIRST SHE OUGHT to realize that when two persons don't get along it is seldom the fault of just one of them. So she should try to see if her husband isn't being too touchy, or if he isn’t childishly expecting more praise or more credit for what he does than one is likely to get in the business world. If so, she should gently but firmly make her husband see the situation honestly. It won't draw him as close to her at the moment as would blaming the boss for everything" and calling him names—but it will make for a better solution of his problem in the end.
Even if her calm judgment: tells her that the boss is really at fault, a wife should go easy on encouraging resentment against him in her husband’s_ mind.
Maybe the family can't afford for Papa to risk his job at the present moment—or maybe, taking a long range view of the situation, it is important to the man’s future that he make the best of an unpleasant situation for a time. If either of those things is true, a wife should be careful not to increase her husband's discontent, but should say, “Of course, it’s a bad = situation—but it looks as though for the time being you'll have to put up with-it. But we'll do everything in our power to make the time as short as possible.” And then, being a good wife, she'll see that her husband’s home life is as happy as possible—and that whatever beating his pride takes at work, he’ll be allowed to feel like head man around his house.
Measure Carefully For Coffee
Coffee experts say that good coffee is never made haphazardly. Both water and coffee should be measured accurately by standard measuring spoons and cups. Your taste for strong or not so strong coffee will guide your measurements. If you use the vacuum method, be sure to have the water boiling in the lower bowl before the upper bowl, containing filter and coffee, is adjusted. Almost immediately, the water in the lower bowl will rise through the tube to the upper section: When all but the small amount of water below the tube has risen, stir the mixture in the upper bowl and turn the flame very low. If you use a very fine grind, coffee
about two minutes before turning out the flame; if a coarse grind, a five minutes. When all the
