Her illusion veil, bordered in deep lace was held by a halo of seed pearls and she carried a large white orchid encased in lace with a shower of satin ribbon. She was given in marriage by her father. Mrs. Barbara Koonz, the bride's sister, was matron of honor and wore a gown of turquoise taffeta with an overskirt of net in the same shade. Her bouquet was fashioned from carnations and sweet peas. Bridesmaids were Miss Helen South, gowned in lavender; Mrs. Florence Walt, pink taffeta; Lorraine Montijo, sea green; and Jennie Walton, yellow. The design of each dress was identical to that worn by the matron of honor. Miss Susan Koons, niece of the bride, was flower girl and wore a floor length dress of yellow taffeta and net. She carried a basket of summer flowers. Caylor Walt of Buena Park was best man and ushers were Dal Ott of Brea; Edward Heinrich Fremont "F" club, honor society, spent a day at Catalina last week.

Several trips have been planned to complete the requirements for the Ramblers Badge. The Troop was guest of the 6th grade in the City park, and ate "foot long hot dogs," with potato chips and the other usual picnic food.

The embers of the glowing campfire were enjoyed as the girls sang favorite Girl Scout songs. Closing the evening entertainment "When I get back to home base after a trip, I'm always greeted by a bunch of bills. And, believe me, it's a shock to see how some of our household expenses have jumped. But I always smile a little when I write a check for our gas bill. We use gas for cooking, water heating, refrigeration, clothes drying and house heating...nearly every modern convenience, my wife says...yet our gas bill is always one of our smallest. Dependable low-cost natural gas is certainly one of the many good reasons for living in Southern California." Your household bargain is GAS Show Building Progress at Mariner Meet "The Church Reaches Up" was the thought given by Rev. Howard S. Congdon to the Mariners' Club before showing colored slides of the progress in the building of the new Presbyterian church. The series of pictures started with the ground breaking ceremony on Easter, 1950 and continued through the various phases of construction until the present time. The pictures, which were taken and shown by Herman Thompson, and the narrative by Rev. Congdon were most inspiring. The evening started with a delicious potluck dinner with everyone bringing their favorite dish. Chefs in charge were Ben and Faye Switzler. During the business meeting, final reports were made on the silver dollar each member couple was given three months ago. The dollar was to be put to work to see how much it could earn during the three month period. As the money was turned over to the pursers, the methods of investment proved interesting and varied and in some cases even amusing. They ranged from raising and selling cut flowers and rabbits to making ceramics, baking and photography. In addition to the members, others present were Mr. and Mrs. Herman Thompson, Mr. and Mrs. August Fitz and Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Ross. Just before serving cream of potato or cream of tomato soup, stir some small cubes of fresh celery into it for crisp flavor. For "His or Her" Graduation Gift Give a watch.

The result is that today...as always...your household bargain is gas. So use this modern money-saving fuel to live better and be truly comfortable.
