T^he ceremony was performed on Saturday evening, May 11, in Atlanta, Ga., by Dr. Gary Breckenridge Wilmer, rector of St. Luke's Episcopal church, in the parlors of the suite of the Ansley hotel. The bride wore a simple white net dress, with a girdle of silver, a hat of pale pink net, and a corsage bouquet of delicate pink roses and gardonias. Miss Mary Carlyle of Portsmouth, O., who served as bridesmaid, was gowned in pale pink aad blue net. She wore a large picture hat of blue, and carried a bouquet of pink roses and sweet peas. Mrs. Hall, the bride's mother, wore a black net gown and hat trimmed with scarlet roses and swansonia. Lieutenant Lawrence McEnroe of Ripley, Wis., served as best man. Among the guests were Mrs. S. T. Kidder, Jr., of Tipton, Ga., Lieutenant Francis Oberst, Mrs. C. E. Wilmer, Mrs. H. M. Smith and Dr. Alexander B. Smellie of Atlanta, Ga. Lieutenant and Mrs. Selleck will make their home at 409 Peachtree street, Atlanta, Ga., while Lieutenant Selleck is stationed at Camp Gordon. The women of the Wilmette Red Cross branch will participate in the Decoration Day parade. They will wear Red Cross workers uniform. All the Red Cross workers are re- quested to assemble at the Head- quarters, 1107 Central avenue, be- tween 8:30 and 9 o'clock, Thursday morning, May 30. The new hostess house at the Great Lakes will be ready to have tions. its grand opening and house warming in about another fortnight, for it is rapidly becoming completed and the decorating committee is busy makisg it a homey and attractive place. The new house is located in Camp Perry and is larger than the old one, which is just inside the main gate of the training station. Plans are on foot to enlarge the first one, for it has become so popular with not only the visitors to the Great Lakes, btu with the jackies themselves that it is far too small to accomodate the crowds that throng to it every day. On Wednesdays and Sundays, the visiting days at the station, there are usually about 2000 persons who enjoy its hospitality. The new house will have a cafe- teria and also sleeping rooms where visiting parents and relatives who receive the commandant's permission may spend the night. Miss Irene Ustick will present a number of her pupils in a piano reci- tal at the Wilmette Woman's club, Friday evening, May 31. Among those who will take part are the Misses May Helmer, Viola Reid, Grace Reid, Marion Meinel, Ruth Fitzgerald, Ruth Heckel, Ruth Da- vison, Hildur Ouse, Emily Law, Nor- ma McKenzie. Miss Florence Ustick will render a number of vocal selec- -_*_. At the annual meeting of the North Shore Catholic Woman's club the subject of an annual luncheon was discussed. Under the present con- ditions it was moved that we dispense with it but give a patriotic luncheon instead, the proceeds of which were to go toward the purchase of a Li- berty bond. Mrs. Frank Jones kindly donated her home for the occasion but six days prior to the date set for the luncheon, a bereavement oc- cured in the hostesses' family which necessitated having the luncheon elsewhere. The Ouilmette Country club was secured. It is beautifully situated overlooking the lake and many guests front as far north as Waukegan and as far west as May- wood were in attendance, Con- sidering the expense of the club and the added labor the luncheon incurr- ed, it was a grand success. The club was beautifully decorated with the national colors and spring flowers. The success of the luncheon was at- tributed mainly to Mrs. H. A. Mo- rin, president, Mrs. Frank Jones, hostess, who kindly collected dona- ttons Irotn merchants Of Wilmette and Evanston, and Mrs. $J. Ander- son, chairman of the house commit- tee, who prepared the luncheon.

Shurtleff, 815 Lake avenue, has been elected one of the members of the Finance committee of the Supreme Council of the Royal Arcanum, The convention has been held during the past week at the Edgewater Beach hotel. Following are excerpts from some very interesting letters written by Sergeant Marshall Da'vies, who is overseas with the Advance Ordnance Department ,to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Davies, 530 Forest avenue. "We have been on the move most of the time, so letter writing has been neglected. We spent a couple of days in a so-called fort said to have been build a hundred years before Napoleon; then we travelled several days in box-cars (side-door Pullmans) and, despite the unavoid- able inconveniences, we enjoyed the trip, mainly, I imagine, because of the extreme novelty of it all. We ,have had a little opportunity to talk with French soldiers and civilians and it was all very amusing. The French I had at college helped a lot, and I could ask questions O. K, but had a deuce of a time, understanding ie answers I received They talk so fast that it all sounds like Greek to me. --"I can't tell you the details of our last trip but may say that to me it was work entirely new, but very amusing, for we certainly had a good time. We were fortunate enough to spend some time very close to one of the fronts, and among other things, we saw a Ger- man aeroplane fired upon by anti- air craft guns* We also saw the partial ruins of several towns and noticed numerous graves here and there in the fields and on the hill- sides. ■•■ i- "Chid and I spent last evening at the Y. M. C, A. They had singing, a short addresi, and then American movies. The latter are always well received, regardleis of the age or condition of the films, and the re- marks made by this in the audience make up a large part of the enter- tainment Glad to hear that Bruce not through O.

Believe me, I never before realized the value of the electric washing machine. Am going down to the Y. M. C. A. tonight, movies, etc. Most every night there is something going on, and we can buy a few things at the canteen, cigarettes, tobacco, can- dy, etc. The Y. M. C. A. certainly deserves a lot of credit for the work they're doing and I think all the men appreciate it." ■ ■ _*_ On Saturday aftcrnon, May 25, Mrs. William H.
