Othni Leona Hilgenfeld Becomes Bride of Harvey C. Nunn at Bethel Baptist Church Friday Marriage of Miss Othni Leona Hilgenfeld, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Hilgenfeld of Anaheim, to Harvey C. Nunn of Los Angeles was solemnized Friday evening at 8 o'clock in the Bethel Baptist church of Anaheim. The father of the bride officiated at the ceremony. Miss Lois Schroeder of Anaheim played a medley of wedding music, and Donnis Turner of Los Angeles sang "At Dawning" and "I Love You Truly" prior to the ceremony. Then Miss Schroeder played the "Bridal Chorus" from Wagner's "Lohengrin" as the wedding march. The bride walked in on the arm of her father. The bride wore a princess gown of white brocaded velvet with a standing collar and pearl clips, long sleeves and a train. The long tulle veil was held in place by a lace cap trimmed with orange blossoms and a face veil. She carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses and lillies of the valley. The bride's only attendants were her two sisters. Miss Evelyn Hilgenfeld as maid of honor wore a gown of royal blue velvet trimmed with metal clips and she carried an armful of Talisman roses. Miss Frances Hilgenfeld as bridesmaid wore a similar gown of dubonnet velvet and carried an armful of Aurora roses. Both attendants had satin slippers, to match their gowns. Little Lela Joyce Magouirk of Long Beach was flower girl. Attending the bridegroom were Melvin Hilgenfeld, brother of the bride as best man, and Jerome Brown of Glendora, Orval Murray of San Diego, Everett Granere of Anaheim and Earle Flautt of San Pedro as ushers. Following the ceremony the bridal couple marched out to the tune of Mendelshon's "Wedding March." A reception was held in the social hall of the church. The bride's cake, made by the bride's sister, Frances Hilgenfeld, had central place on the long table at one end of the room. In the receiving line were members of the bridal party and the bride's mother who wore a dress of green faille crepe with gold metal trim and a corsage of gardenias. Changing her wedding gown for a going away costume of tile faille crepe made in bolero style with a London tan sport coat and dark brown accessories the bride left with her husband for a short honeymoon trip.

Provides New Use for One of Oldest Known Foods. HONEY is one of the oldest foods known. In fact, it is reported that a jar of honey placed in the tomb of one of Egypt's great queens some 3,300 years ago was found recently, still liquid and fragrant after all those weighty years. Honey is not only a delicious food, it's also a healthful one. Child specialists stress its virtues in children's diets, because honey needs practically no digestion. The flavor of honey is due to the aromatic substances found in the nectar of flowers. Incidentally, if you wish to experience a new thrill in your morning, afternoon or evening coffee, try adding a bit of pure honey. The next time you serve coffee when you entertain, include a jar or pitcher of honey along with the cream and sugar, and give your guests an opportunity to try this new and delightful use for honey.

Brief Highlights of California History By ROY W. CLOUD, State Executive Secretary, California Teachers Association. Editor's Note: Roy W. Cloud, who has written these "Brief Highlights of California History," of timely interest in view of Admission Day, September 9, is the author of "Trails of yesterday," a narrative of early California days, and of "The History of San Mateo County." He is an authority on California history and was formerly historian of the Grand Parlor, Native Sons of the Golden West. U. S. SOVEREIGNTY The Bear Flag republic lasted just 24 days, or until the American flag was raised at Monterey by command of Commodore John Drake Sloat on July 7, 1846, or 26 days, if we allow for the two days it required for the news to get to Sonoma, capital of the republic. War had been declared between the United States and Mexico prior to July 2, 1846, when Sloat dropped anchor in Monterey bay. There was a delay of five days before Sloat demanded the surrender of Monterey. Some authorities ascribed the delay to the occurrences at Sonoma and the institution of the Bear Flag republic. However, on the seventh day commemorate the most important event in American history—the signing of the constitution of the United States 150 years ago—the Huntington Library is showing some of its rarest Americana in a special exhibition illustrating the formation of the document. The exhibition develops the idea that the constitution was not an inspired document but resulted from weeks of deliberation and argument and subsequent months of controversy over ratification by special state conventions. Among the source documents exhibited which help the visitor to realize what took place are some of the drafts actually handled by delegates during the convention proceedings at Independence hall, Philadelphia. Notable are manuscript notes of George Mason of Virginia, one of the most active and influential deputies at the convention. In addition to official documents leading up to the members' edition of the constitution, printed immediately after the engrossed copy of the constitution was signed on September 17, 1787, are numerous pamphlets, books and letters throwing light on the struggle for ratification in the different states. The efforts of James Wilson in Pennsylvania and of Hamilton, Madison, and Jay in New York to win approval of the proposed constitution are illustrated by rare contemporary pamphlets, books. An interesting statement about conditions in the other pivotal states of Virginia and Massachusetts is contained in an autograph letter of James Madison, written December 14, 1878, when the controversy was raging: "The same cause which has instituted & countened the to it by the president. California, in fact, never held "territorial" status. It came full grown into the union. GOLD AND STATEHOOD The civil administration of California, under United States control, from 1846 until statehood, in 1850, was directed by a succession of military governors.

War had been declared between the United States and Mexico prior to July 2, 1846, when Sloat dropped anchor in Monterey bay. There was a delay of five days before Sloat demanded the surrender of Monterey. Some authorities ascribed the delay to the occurrences at Sonoma and the institution of the Bear Flag republic. However, on the seventh of July, Sloat made formal demand on the Mixican commandante for the surrender of the capital, landed a force of marines and seamen, took possession of the port, and ran up the American flag to a salute of 21 guns from the three warships under his command in the harbor. Sonoma received the news with acclaim two days later. The Bear Flag was promptly and officially supplanted on July 9, 1846, by the Stars and Stripes, and California came under the rule of the United States. The Stars and Stripes were raised at Sonoma by Lieutenant Joseph Warren Revere, of the warship Portsmouth, then lying at San Francisco. Lieutenant Revere, a grandson of Paul Revere, and on his mother's side, of General Joseph Warren, the hero of Bunker Hill, took the Bear Flag with him on his return east. Some years later he gave it to the Society of California Pioneers, where it remained until 1908. In that year this historic relic was lost in the fire that devastated a large portion of San Francisco, destroying the society's headquarters. The war with Mexico ended February 2, 1848, and California, by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, became a part of the United States, without a government other than might be given arbitrarily GOLD AND STATEHOOD The civil administration of California, under United States control, from 1846 until statehood, in 1850, was directed by a succession of military governors. Gold, discovered by James W. Marshall at Captain John Sutter's Mill, at Coloma, near Sacramento, January 24, 1848 (the date fixed in the diary of Henry Bigler, a workman at the mill) soon focused the world's eyes on California, and the greatest population stampede, probably, in history began. General Bennet Riley became governor of California in April, 1848. Administrative affairs of the department of California, as the province was now known, were in a chaotic condition. Governor Riley, an able, efficient executive, crystallized the feeling of the people that conditions should be stabilized, by calling a constitutional convention. The convention duly met at Colton hall, Monterey, September 3, 1849. Dr. Robert Semple, the state's first newspaper publisher, and a leader in the Bear Flag "rebellion," was chairman. The delegation apparently gave little thought to the formation of a territory, the established procedure preceding statehood. A constitution was adopted, with the provision that slavery—then a burning issue in congress—should not exist in California. A statewide election was held November 13, 1894, and a governor, other state officials, a legislature and members of congress were elected. The legislature in turn elected two United States senators—although California was not yet a state—Senators John C. Fremont and William M. Gwin.
