Henry Wed The wedding of Miss Frances Wickersheim and Marion Clayton Henry, at the First Christian church, Santa Ana, at 3:30 Easter afternoon, joined two of the more prominent families of Orange county. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward F. Wickersheim, of Santa Ana, and the bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Henry, of Anaheim. The wedding service was read by the Rev. Walter S. Buchanan before an altar which was banked with Easter lilies. As a prelude to the ceremony, Mrs. James Briggs played the "Venetian Love Song" on the organ and Miss Sally Coe sang "I Love You Truly." The Lohengrin bridal chorus was the organ number played as the bridal party entered. The bride wore a gown of white dotted net, the skirt of floor length and fashioned with inserts of lace medallions. Very pale pink rosebuds and blue forget-me-nots added a touch of color to the bodice of the formal wedding dress. Three rows of orange blossoms held the cap of a long tulle veil in place. The only ornament of the bride was a crystal necklace and the shower bouquet was of Easter lilies and lilies of they alley. Mrs. Ernest G. Sawyer was matron of honor and wore an afternoon gown of turquoise blue chiffon, a picture hat of beige straw with a large blue bow, and blue satin slippers. She carried a French bouquet in blue and yellow. John Henry, brother of the bride-groom, was the best man. A reception at the church followed the wedding and the newly-weds are on a motor trip to Seattle, with a boat trip to Vancouver and other points. They will be away a month and will Flower Mission Begins Another Year's Work The Flower Mission of the First Presbyterian church has embarked upon another period of activity by the installation of officers, held at the home of Mrs. Huston C. Kler on North Palm street, last Thursday afternoon. The new president is Mrs. H. B. Pearson and the other officers are: Mrs. C. E. Harbeson and Mrs. J. H. Hillary, vice-presidents; Mrs. Milo K. Tedstrom, secretary; Mrs. George Chambers, treasurer. The installig officer was Mrs. Leo J. Frlis, who spoke on the four aims of the Mission—flowers for the sick, welcome for the stranger, material aid for the needy, and assistance to the church. A large basket of flowers was presented to Mrs. Conrad Jongewaard, retiring president, the presentation being made by Mrs. J. E. Rodden. The report of the retiring secretary, Mrs. B. B. Barton, showed that in the last year members of the Mission had made 265 calls, 85 baskets of flowers had been sent to shut-ins and charity to the amount of $50 had been dispensed. The speaker of the afternoon was Mrs. H. A. Johnston, who talked of springtime flowers in England and Holland and of the famous painting "The Last Supper." Mrs. Jaunita Ross sang two songs, accompanied by Marion Sloop. The home of the hostess was adorned with Easter flowers and also was assisted in serving tea by Mrs. Blaine Huntoon and Mrs. Holly Markle. Children's Fashion Show at Easter Party The 75 children who romped at an Easter party given by the Ebell club at the City Park, Saturday afternoon, staged an impromptu fashion show of their own, for their mothers, 25 of whom also attended, arrayed their youngsters in newest Easter fashions of apparel. Mrs. Agnes Carson held marked attention of the little folks as she told stories, and another feature of the afternoon was a hunt for baskets filled with candy eggs. The baskets were made by Girl Scouts, and a number of extra ones were sent to the Orange County hospital for the young shut-ins. Following the games the youngsters were refreshed with ice. The hostesses from the Ebell club were Mrs. Charles E. Harbeson, Mrs. Newman Sanford and Mrs. Earl Phillips, with Miss Marguerite Twinem as leader of the Girl Scout troop. Mrs. J. W. Harpster, president, and members of the club executive board were also in attendance. Institute Dance a Brilliant Affair The Easter dance given on Monday evening by the Young Ladies' Institute at the Elks clubhouse was one of the brilliant affairs of the Spring season. The ball room was arrayed as a tropical scene and formed a pleasing background for the beautiful formal costumes of the women. Miss Geraldine Dolan, president of the Institute, Miss Josephine Lopez, chairman of the dance committee, and Miss Mayme Dillon, in charge of decorations, were in the receiving line. Those who assisted the chairman of committees were Miss Jeanette Huarte, Mrs. Irene Streuber, Mrs. Edna Kluthe, Mrs. Bernice Wollenman, Miss Alice Wisser, Mrs. Naomi Healy, Mrs. Mary Godfrey, Mrs. Luelle Sidnmur, Mrs. Mae LeVecke, Mrs. Viola Hays, Miss Naomi Nenno, Mrs. Lucana McFadden.

The places were marked by small Easter chicks; the handwork of the hostess, Anaheim guests present were Mrs. J. P. Fraser, Mrs. Harold Chandler and Mrs. Inez Yeats. Miss Emmerling is a talented harpist who last year gave a program for the Anaheim Ebbel club. Following the luncheon, the hostess took her guests to Long Beach where the afternoon wass pent.

And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other." A correlative passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, says of Jesus, "By parable and argument he explains the impossibility of good producing evil; and he also scientifically demonstrates this great fact, proving by what are wrongly called miracles, that sin, sickness, and death are beliefs—illusive errors — which he could and did destroy." Another of our grandmother's pet home remedies, the sulphur-and-molasses cure-all for 'spring fever,' has been relegated to the past, and Dr. Louis Stanley chief of the Bureau of Home Economics, Department of Agriculture offers a substitute. She says the use of fresh vegetables in the diet will do everything that the old standby was supposed to do. Fresh Vegetables Nowadays "The modern theory of nutrition has substituted fresh vegetables for the sticky mass which every member of the family was urged to take daily by the spoonful as soon as spring came," she said. "About this time every year the jar of sulphur and molasses used to add pear in the kitchen cupboard and great store was set by its curative power." Although little was known of special nutritive values of the various kinds of foods, the spring tonic was assumed to be a necessity following the more restricted diets of winter." "Our national eating habits have changed so greatly that any sort of spring tonic is superfluous. We now have an abundant supply of fresh fruit and vegetables the year round." Increased facilities for shipping perishable foodstuffs from the southern markets enable us to provide a winter diet little different from our summer diet.

Christian Science Lesson-Sermon The question "Are Sin, Disease, and Death Real?" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon Sunday in all branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. A Scripture selection from Luke includes the following statements concerning one of Jesus' healing works; "And there was a man whose right hand was withered. And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him. But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the Often the very simplest motifs prove to make the most pleasing of decorations. In spite of the most sophisticated sort of prints a simple polka dot or a striped material still pleases us. An embrodery design consisting of dots and simple lines of hemstitching may be chosen to ornament the most expensive of French lingerie, and rickrack braid which depends on the very, very old motif of a zigzag line still pleases the twentieth century eye. Rickrack braid has been revived for spring. It may be the forerunner of a revival interest in braid generally. Cotton rickrack is used on linen and cotton dresses and silk rickrack on silks of the rougher, dull-surfaced sort. It is usually applied as a sort of edging, on collar, belt, cuffs, pockets, etc., and may be of matching or contrasting color. Used in this way it is usually applied on the wrong side, so that the zigzag effect is lost. Sometimes it is used to form band effects, two or three or even more strips of the braid being used at regular intervals. The braid should first be basted carefully in position, care being taken to ease it on a little so that if it shrinks when the dress is washed or cleaned, the braid will still lie flat. After the basting is done the braid may be sewed on by machine or applied with blind-stitching. On the average, cows in Denmark give more than 40 per cent more milk than cows in the United States. minerals which are really efficacious in maintaining good nutrition. One vitamin especially, which is found in varying degrees in fruits and vegetables, automatically takes care of lagging appetites and promotes good digestion and the absorption of food. Because the body has only a limited capacity to store this vitamin, the food supply should contain an abundance at all times." For the more remote rural districts where the markets are likely to lack a supply of fresh vegetables Doctor Stanley suggests that the people take advantage of the information recently offered by the Bureau of Plant Industry which listed several edible greens that may soon be found in the fields and woods. The list includes poke, lamb's-quarter, nettle, plantain, mustard greens, and dandelions. Sweet Potato Tops Sweet potato tops, they say, are also edible and when picked do not kill the parent roots. Beet and radish tops may be gathered and used for greens while they are young and tender. The tiny beets, but not the little radishes, may be cooked along with the greens. Nettle, which to the bare legged country child means a stinging plant to be avoided, is an old-world potherb. It should be picked when the sprouts are finger long and should be cooked like spinach. Plantain was used commonly in France in the 16th and 17th centuries as a potherb but it can also be served in salads. Mustard greens and lamb's-quarter are cooked like spinach, and poke in the same way as asparagus. Most persons are familiar with the many ways in which dandelion can be served as a salad. It has recently grown so popular that it is now being raised commercially and shipped to market. Best Cooking Methods Practically all the benefits which might be derived from vegetables may be lost in the cooking. Doctor Stanley points out. The best methods of cooking vegetables for preserving the food value are in the following order: baking, steaming and boiling in the skins. When water is used in cooking, the bureau advocates using a small quantity for most vegetables. This method, with brief cooking retains most of the vitamins which are really efficacious in maintaining good nutrition.

According to a Chicago Tribune correspondent who has been touring Russia, the Russians go to bed every night with their clothes on. We presume this means that they sleep in their Red underwear.

When water is used in cooking, the bureau advocates using a small quantity for most vegetables. This method, with brief cooking retains most of the vitamins and minerals, many of which are saluble in water and frequently thrown away. The greatest fault in vegetable preparation, the bureau finds, is overcooking. The addition of bicarbonate of soda to the vegetable water is a practice which the bureau declares for it has a tendency to destroy the vitamins and break down the fibers and make the vegetable mushy.
