Office Half-Holiday: Due to redecorating the office the Wirk and Master employees in the main office were off’Saturday morning, which gave them an extended holiday week-end.

Wash Away Oily Hair Troubles

By HELEN FOLLETT LOUDEST among the beauty wailers are the girls with oily hair. They complain eternally, make a big fuss. Sometimes over-active sebaceous glands are buttering the silky shafts; often the oiliness is the penalty a girl pays for giving herself a casual half-hearted shampoo. If she rubs the bar of soap over her brain mat, she ean be sure that grﬁclu of soap will cling so closethat rinsing will not remove them. Some soaps are desirable for the skin, not for the hair; they don’t make a live erackling suds which is necessary to combat oils, dead skin seales and dust that the prettyi mop has collected.

Let Wailing Winnie place a small bar of soap in a quart mason jar, fill the jar with boiling water, let stand three days before using. She ean then half fill a cup with the solution, add as much hot water, have a perfect shampoo medium. There should be three soapings, &8 many rinsings with a bath spray and & strong current of water. Brisk frietion is necessary. If the ‘oomb and brush shew a gray deposit, the soap has not been re,Mwﬂlmtbooﬂywmatortg might, f then, no matier how butyl glands may be.

1940 AAA Wheat Payments Will Range Between 18-22c¢

Orval L. McLallin, chairman of the Noble County Agricultural Conservation Association, announced this week that the rates of payment which wheat farmers may earn in 1940 for complying with the AAA Farm Program will total between 18 and 22 cents a bushel on the normal yield of their acreage allotment. This includes conservation and price adjustment payments. Definite rates for 1940 cannot be determineqd this early, McLallin said, because the division of available funds among conmodities covered by the program will not be made until more ¢omplete 1939 production data are available and the 1940 acreage allotments can be determined for each state. However, in order that wheat farmers who are making pians now for 1940 seedings may know approximately what payments they can earn, a range within which the rate will probably fall has been estimated, McLallin stated.

The 1940 wheat payment will be lower than the 2% cenis conservation and price adjustment payment for 1939. This is because the national acreage allotment is higher. Mr. McLallin explained that the larger allotmens results in a smaller amount being apportioned to wheat. The 1940 national wheat acreage allotment is 62 million acres as compared to 55 million acres for 1939.

The Agricultural Adjustment Act requires that funds available for conservation payments e divided among the crops on the basis of the adjustment required, together with their past average acreages,-and the parity value of the acreage allotment. The amount of price adjustment money allocated to each of the five commodities is determined by the amount by which farm income from the production of each commodity is below parity income.

Open Bids Thursday On Highway Projects The State Highway Commission will receive bids Thursday (Sept. 7) on road construction work having an estimated cost of $870,000, T. A.

RONALD HOOVER

HOOVER-STECHON Miss Rose Stechcon, -daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Stechcon, Sr., of Ligonier and Mr. Ronald Hoover of Nappanee, Indiana were united in Holy Matrimony on Saturday morning, September second. The Chapel of The Little Flower, on the north shore of Lake Wawasee was chosen as the locale for this late summer wedding. The marriage ceremony, the very beautiful and appropriate ritual with which the sacrament of matrimony is administered, was solemnized by the Reverend Francis A. O'Brien O. M. I. pastor of St. Patrick’s- church in Ligonier. The marriage ceremony, beautifui in simplicity, expresses the ’solemnity o fthe contract and holiness of the sacramental received.

Father O’Brien waited before the altar, robed in the gold vestments used in the celebration of the Mass, as the bride on the arm of her father came down the aisle. At the foot of the altar she took the arm of her intended husband and proceeded to the altar. Then in 3 few words the couple pledged their consent to each other, joined their right hands and the priest pronounced them united in the holy bond of matrimony, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. He then blessed the wedding ring, ‘asking the blessing of God upon her who was to wear it in faith and mutual love. The groom then placed the ring on the finger of the bride as he plighted anew his troth. With a final prayer the priest then closed the ceremoiy proper.

Immediately the High Mass for the bride and groom began. In the solemn stately measures characteristic of the centuries olg church music, the various prayers of the mass asked the blessings of God upon the wedded life of the couple just married. The ceremony of the Nuptial Mass is over seventeen hundred years old.

Dale Butz, Albion was one of ’three high judges in the Northeastern District and wins a trip to the National 4-H Club Congress at Chicago next December. The other two for the Northeastern 3rd section of the state were Howard Dresslin, LaPorte, and Porter Kirkpatrick, Tippecanae county.

- L. H. Pulfer of Montrose, Calif,, stopped a runaway horse with his car, but when he tried to ride the animal to a nearby stable it threw him and broke his thumb, ~

The solemn Nuptial Blessing was imparted during the Mass. This beautiful prayer asks that the present wedlock be one of peace and happiness and ‘‘the wife may be simple as was Rachel; wise like Rebecca; long lived and faithful like Sarah.”

Shortly before the end of the Mass the newly wedded couple came again to the altar and knelt there before the priest as he prayed that they may enjoy peace, contentment and happiness in this life and the life to come. ~This final blessing concluded the ceremony. The ritual is most expressive of the sacred nature of marriage and the respect and reverance which should be accord-, ed to it at all times, and brings before the people the importance of living in marriage acecording to the law of God in peace and tranquillity. ‘The bride, a picture of loveliness, chose a bridal gown of ‘White Moire cut on princess lines transcending into a flowing train. Long fitted sleeves, which were puffed at the shoulders, ended in points on the back of the hands. Her veil of illusion, finger-tip in length was held in place by a large rosette of the same material. Miss Frances Stechcon, sister of the bride, was her only attendant and was ' gowned in white organza over satin. Her veil was of rose illusion in the same shade as her bouquet of rose asters, lcontrasting effectively with the White Talisman roses’ used in the bride’s bouquet. Mr. Joseph Leavy, Jr., acted as the groomsman to Mr. Hoover. The music of the mass was sung by the Reverend F. A. MecCartin O. M. I. accompanied on the organ by the Reverend John Tracy O. M. I. who also played the wedding march. Mendelssohns’ wedding march was used as the processional and the Bridal Chorus by Wagner was played as the recessional. 4
