My Grocery
By Laura D. Simmons.
The cash I spend in food each day
Evokes a string of words from
me;
I count them over every bill I pay
My Grocery My Grocery!
Each roast a graft each steak a
snare
To make iny life one daily grind;
I add each list unto .he end and
i there
My finish find.
Oh. tenderloins! in vain we yearn
; Our Country's ed we cannot
doubt;
To win the War! and strive at last
' to learn
To go without.

Patriotic Note Marked
Maenner-Robertson
Home Wedding
A beautiful patriotic note in the
appointments of the wedding of Miss
Gladys Maurine Robertson and Capt.
Theodore Henry Maenner was the
profusion of flags used in the decora
tions at the home of the bride's par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Millard. M. Rob
ertson, where the wedding took
place. An effective setting for the
red, white and blue were the misses
rjf palms and ferns and the delicate
Ophelia roses which were used
throughout the rooms.
Preceding the ceremonythe West
Sisters' quartet gave several num
bers. As the strains of the wedding
march sounded, Mrs. G. Eldredge
Hamlin, matron of honor, entered.
She wore her wedding gown of
white satin trimmed in pearls and
carried a shower bouquet of roses
Miss Elizabeth Robertson, sister
of the bride, who was maid of
honor, was most attractive in her
gown of apricot taffeta and tulle,
just harmonizing with the soft
shades of her shower bouquet of
Ophelia roses.
Little Jane Lowe, in a dainty
frock cf white trimmed with pink,
was a pretty little ring bearer, car
rying the ring in a tiny basket filled
with rosebuds.
The bride was lovely in her wed
ding gown of gleaming satin made
with a long court train. Her gown
was trimmed in Chantilly lace and
pearls, her long veil a cloud of
misty tulle, falling to the hem of
het train. The bridal bouquet was
a shower of bride's roses and sweet
peas, tied with fluttering ribbons.
Capt. E. Paul Phillips of Arca
dia, attended the bridegroom and
Us. Charles Powell and William
Collins were ushers.
Following the cermony an infor
mal reception was held. Bride's
roses and rose-shaded lights were
used in the dining room, the
Ophelia roses being used in the
other rooms. Mrs. Willard Sla
baugh sang during the evening and
Miss Adelyn Wood gave several
piano solos.
Captain and Mrs. Maenner left
Wednesday evening for a short hon
eymoon. They expect to remain in
Arcadia, where Captain Maenner is
stationed, until spring.

By GERTRUDE BERESFORD.
Sports coats of brilliant hue will
be worn with white skirts of silk,
satin and wool. Accordion plaits
are used on many of the wool mod
els. An effective sports coat made
of heavy rose silk is illustrated in
this design. It is worn with a skirt
of baronet. The vest is also of
baronet. Conventional embroidery,
carried out in white wool thread,
gives the touch unusual to this coat.
White wool tassels weight the sash,
which has an attractive line, start
ing as it does from beneath the re
vers. A sailor hat of rose silk is
embroidered in white wool thread
to match the coat.

tractive program.
The recital was a brilliant one arid
the guests were most enthusiastic,
charmed not only by the talent ot.
the pianist but also by he magn-tit.
personality. Mrs. Charles M. Wil
helm, who was then president 'ot
the Tuesday Musical club, was
greatly impressed by Miss Mikova's
playing and remarked that some da
she hoped Miss Mikova might play
before the club. ,

We have had exciting, sensational, surprising Shoe Sales, which have caused town talk and
created inquiries from east, west, north and south. BUT, when we consider the times in which we
are living, and doing business, the scarcity of leather, its high cost, the high cost of labor, the high
cost of everything that enters, into this superb footwear eien the increased cost of the cartons and
selling, ,
Without hesitation or reservation WE AFFIRM NEVER HAVE WE PRESENT
ED SO ATTRACTIVE A SHOE BARGAIN.
YES! MORE THAN THAT, Never in our whole life HAVE WE SEEN SUCH
VALUES measured by the conditions which surrounded their purchase.
Ihese Shoes were made to sell at $8, $10, $12, $15. "Most of them made by "Baker," one of
America's most famous makers of fine footwear. . N
h We, ourselves, sold hundreds upon hundreds of pairs of similar Shoes at prices quoted.
These indeed are taken directly from our own stock, are what are known as broken lines.
So many pairs of this number that number and the other number. Not every size in each lot, but
can fit practically anyone from the combined lots.
We said "CAN FIT" if present indications give correct promise most people will have to
fit themselves. Come prepared to get the BIGGEST, BRIGHTEST, BEST BARGAIN in Shoes of
this or any other year. t
