As soon as the date has been set, and it should be at least three months away, the couple should decide together where lifr wo Showers for Shirley Redman Employees of Wm. Knell and Co. Ltd., gathered at the home of Miss Marlene Sutton in Kitchener on May 7, where a miscellaneous shower was held for Miss Shirley Redman. Miss Redman received many lovely gifts, and several games were played. She thanked her fellow employees, and lunch was served. Mrs. James Sutton of Kitch- ener, was also hostess at a mis- cellaneous shower for Miss Red- man, when a number of friends attended. The bride -elect re- ceived a lovely array of useful and beautiful gifts. A dainty lunch was served by the hostess, they want to be married, at what time, and the number of guests they wish to invite. They should also decide where they will hold the reception. Since the bride's parents are responsible for wedding and reception expenses, the first decision will naturally be in their hands, but where possible the groom and his family should be consulted at every stage. The prospective bride then arranges for the church, minis- ter, organist, soloist, and sug- gests the music she wishes played or sung. She also con- sults the clergyman at this point, for a time for rehearsal. When the size of the wedd- ing is determined both families begin making lists of guests. These should be cross -Checked for duplication. The invita- tions and announcements should be ordered two months in ad- vance. Invitations are mailed at least three weeks in advance and announcements are mailed on the wedding day. Reception arrangements should be made well ahead of time, even as much as a couple of months before the wedding. The seating plan for a "sit- down" luncheon must be drawn up and the music chosen. Hor d'oeuvres, sandwiches and dainty cakes, wedding cake and coffee are usually all that are served at a large, informal reception. Ladies Hold Opening Day The Ladies' opening golf day was held on Tuesday afternoon, with a pot luck lunch at one o'clock. The women then en- gaged nine holes of golf. Ladies' Day is every Thurs- day afternoon at two o'clock, with a pot luck lunch being held the second Monday of the month at 1 p. m. There has been a change in date for the dessert bridge, which will now be held June 11 at 2 p.m. Al: ladies are wel- come.

RUNSTEDTLER, Manager Wingham Branch BANK A. E. GRAHAM, Manager Gorrie Branch A florist should be consulted regarding flowers, as soon as the color scheme of the wedd- ing procession has been chosen. Flowers at the church and re- ception are paid for by the bride's family. Although the groom is responsible for all bouquets, corsages and bout- onnieres, it is usually simpler if the bride discusses the ar- rangements with the florist while choosing the larger floral displays for church and recep- tion. Be sure, too, that the photo- grapher is contacted well in ad- vance and decide on the type of picture coverage you would like. Left strictly to the bride's choice is the selection of her wedding gown. On this de- cision rests the whole style of the wedding. If the gown is formal, with a slight train, all members of the wedding party should be correctly dressed in formal wear, suitable for the time of day. Both the bride and groom choose their attendants and the ushers in the early stages. Ensemble for the bride's at- tendants should be carefully planned to blend with the color scheme chosen by the pride, but they should also be flatter- ing to each member of the wedding party. Dresses worn by the mothers of the bride and groom should be in harmony with those of the attendants. Usual Hustle And Bustle at Rummage Sale. The Hospital Auxiliary spring rummage sale was held in the Wingham Arena on Satur- day afternoon. Once again the people of the area responded well to the appeal and as donors, workers and buyers con- tributed to the success of the event. The financial report is as follows: Men's and women's clothing, $265,04; miscellan- eous articles, $169.71; child- ren's clothing, 869.30; hats, $33.40; .shoes, $64.25; novel- ties and china, $92.98; grocer- ies and curtains, $24.92; furni- ture, $150.58; donations, $4. - 15; total, $874,33. In addition, there was sent to the hospital a parcel of artic- les suitable for use with an esti- mated value of $42.00. The receipts from the Hospital Tag Day were: Out-of-town, $166.- 50; Wingham, $171.00; total, 8337.50. The Auxiliary is grateful to all those who back them up in this co-operative effort, which involves many workers and many kinds of help. Women worked hard all day Friday and on Saturday morning and after- noon taking phone calls, receiv- ing and sorting articles, pre- paring the departments and conducting the sale. Several men of the community also helped in a number of ways. The Auxiliary appreciated very much Jack Alexander's contri- bution of talent to the success- ful furniture auction. At the end of the afternoon wearing apparel in useful con- dition, which had not been sold, was packed for shipment to the Scott Mission and the Fred Victor Mission for use in their work in Toronto's Inner City. The Auxiliary hopes to be able to announce soon the use which will be made of the pro- fits from this sale. Over the years many pieces of valuable equipment and supplies have been purchased, as a result of the generous support of these sales by the citizens of the community, We all realize how fortunate we are to be so well serviced by our District Hospital, and many people take pleasure in showing their appreciation at this time. It is hoped that all those who are interested in supporting this worthwhile event in aid of the Hospital will keep the autumn sale in mind, and start now setting aside items which might be donated then. Save your donations and your buying power, and we'll see you in October! Choose Cosmetics For Natural Look Today's bride knows that her make-up and how it is applied, will play a big part in her ap- pearance for that special day. The smartest make-up will leave her with a natural look and allow her own inner glow to come forth. A tested make-up base to give an evensmoothness, covered with pearled powder pressed on with an absorbent puff, with the excess lightly brushed off, will give a look of 'aliveness". The lasting finish will look beautiful right through the whole reception. Dramatic eye shadow should be avoided. A pearl shimmer shadow is more appropriate than the more exotic shades. Just tip the lashes with mascara and feather in the eyebrow arch. GROOM'S EXPENSES Who pays for the reception after the wedding? The bride's family traditionally, but the bridegroom's family may do so under unusual circumstances. The bridegroom is respons- - ible for the engagement and wedding rings, bachelor dinner, marriage license, personal gift to best man and ushers, clergy- man's fee, etc., and all ex- penses from the minute they start on their wedding trip. Hand Care for New Housewives When the honeymoon is over and the bride faces the menial chore of washing dishes three times a day, she may be discouraged about the condition of her hands. Some detergents may be more gentle than others, but it's best to stick to the rubber glove routine. Washing dishes can actually be helpful as a beauty treat- ment if you cream your hands well before putting on the gloves. The heat from the water will open the pores and allow the cream to soak in. Massage cream over the hands before retiring, and con- centrate on nails and knuckles. Be sure to use a hand cream that is not greasy. Engagement Ring At the Ceremony "Do I wear my engagement ring during the wedding cere- mony, and is additional jewel- lery worn?" is a question often asked by a bride for her wed - d ing. Wear your engagement ring on your right hand until after the ceremony, so the wedding ring may be placed on the left without difficulty. Simplicity in jewellery is the rule, a pearl necklace, pearl or dia- mond earrings, a narrow brace- let, or a simple brooch is ap- propriate. This is a nice occasion to wear family heirloom jewel- lery, as long as it is not ex- cessively elaborate. The tra- ditional bridegroom's gift to his bride is a single strand of pearls and it is given to be worn at the ceremony. Travel Light To "travel light" on the honeymoon, choose cosmetics carefully, and make each pre- paration do double duty. Foundation cream, the base for your make-up, is excellent for sunburn. One shade of rouge will go with every cos- tume if you choose the lovely bloom that is on the market. Your egg shampos can be used to wash undies.
