To tht Kilttor of Woman's Page!
Dear Madam Will you be so kind as
to instruct me regarding the correct
dress ami formalities of a very quiet,
suburban church wedding to be held

The bridegroom -to -be wants to wear

proper to wear a whlto vest with this? 1
'1 he bride-to-be expects to wear a white !

a veil. '
There will bo one bridesmaid, three ,
(lower girls, one twelve years old, and
the other two nbout live and six. Will
you please instruct me who in the bridal '
luirty should wr gloves; how the.
ushers should dress, etc.? J. S.
Culess the bridegroom wears a blue I

be perfectly appropriate for a .liinel
w Hiding, he should not wear a business
suit He sho lid wear the regulation,
cutaway coat, with striped (rousers audi
u black vest. The ushers wear the same
eo-t nine.
The bridegroom and all the ushers
should wear gloves. In many casesthel
bride ami bridesmaids wear gloves, but ,
that is eutlrely a matter of personal j
taste. Cloves arc biing worn more now
than they were for a few years, but
some brides still prefer the ting loved

Of course, the dresses at 11 June wedding
need not be very elaborate and, in fact,
they will be much prettier if they nre
simple and rely on their daintiness and

I I hope tiie.se suggestions will help

They Write
His Name Is Nlcodemus
Dear Cynthia I am a steady reader
of your column and I am writing to you
lor some advice.
I nm seventeen years of age and re
cently met a youth of twenty-four years.
1 nni madly in love with bun and I am
sure he returns my love. I belong to
club and in (his are a large number of
boys nnd girls who continually tease me
about him because of his name, which
is Nlcodemus.
Do you think that this is such a
nneer name? In my estimation he is
beautiful. JUST A GIRL.
If you loved him you would not mind
his name. Of course, It is not an or
dinary name, but one of biblical origin
and not often used. There is nothing
queer nbout it. However, girls of sev
enteen aro pretty young to be madly in
love.
Says Cynthia "Passed the Buck"
Dear Cynthin I wns greatly pained
nnd surprised this cverlug to notice in
vour reiilv to "Curiositv" that on the
inuch-discus-ed but litrle-understood
question of why boys or girl- dose their
eves when kissing or being kissed you
"passed the buck."
It is. I think, an elementary physi
ological fact that rno-t persons have
nearly live senses, and thnt when the
1 brain is receiving impressions from all
1 these tenses there is competition, nnd
I no one is especially emphasized.
I Kissing is reported to the brain cspe
1 dnllv bv the sense of feeling, and to
emphasize this act there is nn attempt
to render the other senses inoperative
for the time the eyes are not only
losed. but hearing also is at a low ebb,
as in deep concentration nnd nil the
receptive powers of t'ie brain uro focused
on the sense of feeling, which, because
sight has been cut off. is nble to register
wilb the highest p ru-ntaie of clearness.

Commends "Country Boy"
Dear Cynthia Last I'uday'evening,
I ebrunry li", you had in your column
an article entitled "Hi-, ideas of Love,"
signed by ".lust a Countrv Hoy of 21."
He delred an answer. The followiug
is the ansvvtr I would like to give him.
To the Country IS"V if 21 You are
certainly to be iiiIi.himI f,r your high
and noble ideas of love, l'or.'when one
person loves another fur the godliness in
him. that person uuit urcly himself
possess thnt godliness, i.M. 'he could
not see and appreciate it in others.
Love, as you define it, m my opinion,
is the only true love. Anything short
of thnt is nnimnl love For the one.
thing thnt places man above the animals
is the soul which God has breathed into
man. but which unimul- d, not possess
Jf. therefore, human ben.gs lovu lueli
j other for anything el-.. ,nt the soul
they posseh. bow is tin ir love different
from that which uu animal has for his
mate?
Hut, if we, with our souls, love the
souls of others, we are exercising (hat
part of our nature which God gov
us when he mude us in Ills Image.
God loves us, not for our physical
appearance or mental ability, but for
our spirituality, our souls. Therefore,
if two persons love each other for their
souls, their love la akin to the love of
Gml ami God surely dwells in theta.

Answers "Ruth" and "Rose"
Dear Cynthia For some time quite
a few letters have appeared, signed bv
"Blllie" and "Illnek-eyed Dlllic." I
believe that I was the first to use that
name, That was some time ngo, in
answer to "A Jewel's" letter. Fwould
like to claim that name by right ot nrst
use, as (hat Is the only wny wo can
identify each ofher.
I would like to answer tho letter
"Ruth" und "Rose" wrote that ap

"Ruth" und "Rose"! would sug

about style and going out as often as
you no doubt do, 5011 would spend some

thero was nothing lo do but have a dif

FRANCE AND POLAND
Histories of Convenient Size
and Careful Compilation
"A. History of France," by Willlnm
Steams Davis, professor of history nt
tho University of Minnesota, is nn ad
mlrnblo compendium on the subject for
American renders. It wilt not, of
course, p upcrsedo tho vnlunblo work by
Victor Duruy, probably O10 best of the
shorter histories of France, but it lias
several advantages over that book.
It Is, for one thing, still more con
densed, making it better available for
tho general render whoso time is
limited J it spans more ground, taking
tho chronicle to the trcnty of Vcrsnlllesf
covering the Gallic glories of the Great
War (whereas Duruy terminated bis
narrative with the o(bcr I ranco-Prus-slan
war) and thereby incorporating a'
vast deal of interesting, vital andsomo--what
inaccessible Information ncorn
ing tho progress of the French Republic
for tho last half century, and it is his
torical in its method and objective'in s
attitude where Duruy was naturally
subjective. Despite Its summnry qual
ity it Is not of the dry-as-dust va
riety. Doctor Davis writes fluently
and at times with real distinction.
As n historical novelist he developed the
knack of graphic and colorful style.
Although Poland has been continuous
ly In the news for the Inst Ave years of
world warfare and now u year nnd more
after the armistice Is still front-page
newspaper material on account of its
strategically perilous buffer position on
tho new mnp of Europe, most readers of
tho latest tidings of the now republic
hnvo very hazv ideas about its past,
nud Its past its racial consciousness
and its nationalistic aspirations hnve
much benring on its present and future.
A. Hruco lloswell, M. A., fellow in the
University of Liverpool, has undertaken
to describe both tho country and the
people of Poland in "Poland nnd the
Poles" for tho information of tho Eng
lish rending public.
