ing. On July third, 1902, at eight
o'clock in the evening, at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, 3128 S street,

riage was celebrated. About one hun
dred and fifty guests were present.
They were -welcomed at the door by
Mr. Howard L. Andrews, Junior, as
sisted by Mrs. Carl Westcott and Miss
Adda Post. The drawing rooms were
beautifully decorated with asparagus
and sweet peas, a mound of the lat
ter fragrant blooms three feet high,
on a center table, attracted much at
tention. An orchestra played in the hall dur
ing the evening. Mr. Frank G. Odell
was master of ceremonies. Mr. Odell.
With a few remarks in a happy vein,
introduced the Reverend Mr. Davis,
who officiated at the marriage of Mr.
and Mrs. Andrews, and he spoke as
follows:
"Brother Andrews, before I knew
you, I knew your father, and loved
him. He was my first class leader in
the first church in Lincoln, a faith
ful friend, a holy man, beloved of God
and all men. I love his memory, and
rejoice to know that you are like him."
His talk was tenderly reminiscent of
the early days, referring first to the
conversion of young Howard Andrews,
and later to the conversion of Ellen
Sneiling, and the fact that both had
so faithfully stayed converted; then to
the time. Just thirty years ago when
he had united them in marriage, and
rejoiced to know that they had so loy
ally stayed married. In closing he
said: "My work for you thirty years
ago has held so well, I see It is not
necessary to perform the marriage
ceremony again, but I am pleased to
here pronounce you man and wife for
another thirty Tears."
Prayer was offered by Reverend L.
M. Denton. After the formal program
Mr. and Mrs. Andrews assisted by
their sons, Messieurs Howard L., and

of her guest, MIbs Ethel Rlngsby of

ret Rlsley, who will soon return to her
home in California.
An illuminated car was provided for
the excursion and took the merry party
said: "When, at one of the informal
feasts of our Friday Morning Club
board, some years ago, each was asked
over the coffee and cakes what she
considered the most remarkable, the
most fruitful discovery of the nine
teenth century, my ready reply was:
'The discovery of woman by herself.'
My comrades of the board thought It,
perhaps, only a fresh airing of my hob
by. But, Indeed, dear friends, do not
the achievements of woman In new and
untried lines, since this awakening to
the broader scope of her abilities, du
ties and responsibilities, fully justify
my seemingly audacious statement? Do
not the gains already made In so brief
a time, and despite the barriers to be
overthrown, sem magical, miraculous?
"This gathering, dear friends, its
numbers and the vaster majority which
It represents, the enthusiasm and uplift
of the tender companionship which has
outleaped all limits of sect, society and
class, to plant Itself firmly on the
simple basis of a common womanhood
does not this eclipse In its power and
possibilities all the mechanical achieve
ments of science, all advance In art and
literature, In that, or In any century?
"My own profoundest wish, my un
quenchable longing (faith as well) is
that the power of organized woman
hood In our clubs, and in ail kindred
efforts by women toward social better
ment and the safety of the home,
should make and will make, its united
protest against war that ghastly ana
chronism of our civilization and our

The California Club Woman sends
out an aftermath of the Sixth Biennial.
From it the following bits of wisdom
are taken:
"May the wage-earner have her bur
den lightened."
"Let us, then, be on the alert to hear
every word that may be spoken of
truth, and to lose no opportunity to re
publish it and pass it on to others."
"All the republics of the past have
perished and, if this Is to be an en
during one, it can only be brought
about by the united efforts of women,
who alone can purify politics."
"Ingratitude Is the basest of crimes;
and the truth of' this should lead us
to cultivate gratitude."
Mrs. Severance, founder of the New
England Club, now of Los Angt'es,
century with Its inevitable barbari
ties and horrors: and its utter
insanity, as a normal or Christian
method of adjusting the differences of
nations. For consider: It is woman
upon whom falls the heaviest burdens,
the cruelest anguish of war. It is she
who furnishes the most indispenslble
munitions of war the soldiers for the
battlefield." .
"Nebraska has the lowest per cent of
Illiteracy of all the states" this was
the proud boast made by Mrs. Draper
Smith.
"We can only help others when wc
have made a success of ourselves."
'"The yeast of social life is new
ideas."
"Create desires and aspirations, and
no authority can stay progress."
"Poverty and uniformity are the
mother of barbarism; wealth and di
versity are the inspiration of civiliz
ation." "The test of education is not how
much we know, but how much we can
do."
