By GABBY. MAY wp hope for an announcement from the Queen of Ak SnrBen soon? "Three times a bridesmaid, never a bride,” goes the old saying. Miss Eleanor Burkley, reigning <iueen, fulfilled the first condition some time ago, so Gabby has felt rather secure about her. despite numerous and ardent admirers. But Just the other day we learned the revised version of the old saying. It confirms the "three times a bridesmaid, never a bride” but goes on to say “unless you have served at seven weddings and fhpn you are sure to be a bride." So now* we are nervous again. With the announcement that Miss Head has chosen Miss Burkley as her maid of honor, she will have been attendant six weddings, and should Miss Dorothy Judson ask Miss Burkley to be in her tyeddlng party when she marries Wallace Sheppard In the spring, and it is nvore than probable she will, the magic seven will have l>een reached What then? Just as a guess, Gabby would suggest the name of one of our taller and handsomer young men. whose attractive manner is backed up with the pres tlge of a creditable record at one of the largest eastern universities. Miss Burkley probably holds the record as attendant at outstanding wed dings of the last few years. She accompanied to the altar Misses Elizabeth Itlngwalt, Dorothy Kipllngcr, Helen Smith, Marinn Hamilton, Dorothy Belt, add will attend Miss Vernelle Head In January and doubtless will be in the wedding party of Miss Judson at a later date. n WEDDING In New York! Thwarted friends who received cards to the wedding of Ger trude Kountze and Ray Millard, which they will be unable to attend, adopt the sour grape consolatory measure saying “a wedding away from all your friends wouldn't bn much fun.” They will be surprised to IcHrn 1hnt Miss Kountze will be married in New York with as grent an array of well-known faces around her as she would have In Omaha. A close friend of the family declared to Gab by Just the other day, that as many invitations were Issued to New York ers, as to Omnhans. The wide rami fications of the Kountze family In the east, and many school friendships formed by both the bride and groom lend a great scope to the list of those interested. -*> YOU'LL all be surprised to hear that another young medical man has been caught In Cupid’s, or Is It Stupid's net? course you'll only be surprised if you are able to guess who he Is. Ry way of Identification tie It known that he studied his medicinal arts at the University of Nebraska branch here, whpre he wn* a mem ber of the Phi Rho fraternity, and that he had what la known a* a way (albeit a wary way) with the ladles. Thla way he retnlned after getting his diploma, nnd lias had a more or less merry time philandering around. This week-end. however, he gave his hand arfay for though he motored down to the game at Lin coln, the only bachelor In u married crowd, she of the opposing team, she speedily Joined him on hi* arrival. In the group of Oinnhans with whom he was were the two doctors with whom he Is associated as a Ju nlor servant. The party was an nounced earlier Iq the week by the social ffrrlbe. □NLV lately one of the Telephone company's confirmed bachelors established * matrimonial prece dent which one of I he other bachelors there Is frying to emulate. Very fre ipiently lie Is seen with the Dulcifies of his choice, and even mf recently as yesterday they were two of the 5,0(10 Omnhans at the Notre Hume game. The young lady herself hss not been without s matrtmnnlsl prece dent, for only this fall her cousin was In the van of the season's brides, Social Affairs Taboo for Week of November 19 Great Rally Among Women Leaders to Support the Community Chest Drive for $402,000. The social slate will be wiped prac tically clean of daytime events such aa luncheons, afternoon bridge par ties or teas during the week of No vember 19 when the campaign Is on to raise $402,000 for the support of 29 Omaha charities. Mrs. W. J. Hynes, chairman, and Mr*. C. M. Wil helm. vice chairman, ore urging the women of Omaha to forego all day time hocia 1 engagements to work for the Community Chest. Neither of these women nor any of their 22 ma jors hna a single social engagement during the daytime for that week In fact, Mrli. Hynea and Mr*. Wil helm have already been working on such a schedule for a week and will continue to do so for another two weeks. Mrs. Jlynes hns a guest, Mis. K. J. McVann of Washington. Her friend* have taken entire responslbtl ity for Mrs. McVann'a entertainment arid she sees her hostess during the day only by calling on /her at thi* campaign headquarters, 1*24 Harney street. Mrs Hynes permitted herself one social diversion last week. Hhe at tended the Nebrnska-Notre lame game at Lincoln Saturday. Mrs. Wil helm will break her three week ached ule Juat once. She will entertain the Fortnightly Mualcnl club at her home Tuesday. "We should make this week one of sacrifice and consecrate It to a com mon cause,'’ declared Mrs. Hynca. "latstlng good should come out of thla drive aside from the financial aid extended the various Institutions. When It Is ended the citizens of Oma ha will know more shout their charl ties and they will be more personally Interested in their support, for this Is to be an educational as well ns it money campaign." Miss Marlon Towle, president of the Junior league, heartily approves of tho plan to forego daylight festivities during campaign week. Hhe believes that the hostess who does entertain that week should pay for the prl vllege, njtd suggests that both she and her guesta make up a fund that day and donate It to lha chad. She also suggests that If bridge la played that women penalize themselves by giving the prtzo money to the cheat. The league has agreed to forego so ctal activities during the week. Mlaa Towle further suggests that next year the Community Cheat week close with a charity ball. "I believe a large sum of money could he real izod for the chest that way. Also It would compensate for a week of so clal Inactivity." Mrs. E. W. Nash believes all social plans should be khandoned for that w^Sk. "Unless the women as welt ak the men work hard the money will not be raised." said Mrs. Nash. "I am deeply Interested In this Commu nity Chest plan and am anxious to see liow It works out. This will be the tost of Its practicability. In other cities they are very enthusliistlr about the system. If we can raise the money this way It will tie a splendid thing Other well known women are out spoken In their supi>ort of the Idea of giving up luncheons and teas during campaign week They expressed themselves In n<> uncertain terms ns follows: Mrs. Conrad Toung "I heartily ap prove of giving up all sorlal engage menta during the daytime In cam palgn week. I have favored the chest plan right along It will eliminate overlapping of charily work and the need of drives every few weeks, it must succeed " Mr*. C. Oeorge: "There ehouh! Ije no entertaining during the day time while the Community Cheat drive la on. Women ahould get out and work. There will he plenty to do." Mlaa Eleanor Hurldey, queen of Ak Bar lien. "We muet give up aortal engagement* that week. It la the only way the drive ran he pul over I think the idea of the fVmnuioity Cheat grow a more popular each (lav aa people enderatnnd It The women who will condtirt Ihe hnuae to hoitee campaign ahould he highly commend ad for thla will be Ihe moat diffi cult thing to do."

Most of the picture* are shiny blacks and whites, but a few will be done In colora. the onlcruinr should he blank. This will lw a week for work." Mrs. F. A. Nash: "I think women should f uego social affairs during the day for that week. If they are not working In the campaign, they shipitld he st home to receive ths so licitors and mske their work easier." Mrs Henry Wyman: "I think there Is a spiritual significance to this drive as well Ns material one. We can well afford for one week to give up our plrasure and devote our time one way or mother to Community Chest work " Mrs tiled Wharton approves Mi* Hynes' plan "All the Junior league members have agreed to give up so dal affairs that week," she declared Mrs. T.
