The prettty bride chose a floor length gown of white silk- satin styled with a panelled A-line front, high neckline, long sleeves with deep button cuffs and a chapel length train which fell from a back pleat.

Grandma Scz ••• MRS. DANNY P1CKELL Doris Duling Becomes Bride Of Iowa Man Saturday, Feb. 13, was the day selected by Miss Doris Duling and Mr. Danny Pickell for their wedding, which was solemnized at the home of Rus­ sell Welder, justice of the peace at Madrid, Iowa. Only members of the immediate families and close friends were present at the ceremony, which was fol­ lowed by a reception at the home of the bride's aunt in Des Moines. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Harry W. Leonard of 2609 Forestwood drive, McHenry, and LCDR Martin Lee Duling, stationed with the Navy in Mer­ idian, Miss., who gave her a- way. The bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Vern Pickell of Madrid, Iowa. , Using a Valentine theme, the bride wore a simple, A-line floor length pink dress with empire waist. She carried one long stemmed pink rose with velvet streamers. The new Mrs. Pickell grad­ uated from McHenry high school with the class of 1970 and is a stenographer for Look maga­ zine in Des Moines. Her, hus­ band graduated in 1968 from Madrid high school and is an employee of the Armstrong Construction company in Ames, Iowa. Senior Citizens Make Favors For Residents Of Home While the McHenry Senior Citizens club members enjoy­ ed a gala Valentine party, they did not forget the residents of Sunset Manor. Helen Strand- quist and Lyda Radisch, rep­ resenting the local club, visit­ ed Sunset Manor and presented Mrs. Myra Richardson, direc­ tor of activities, with enough Valentine table favors for all the residents va|id their guests for their Valentine dinner, which was scheduled tb be a fes­ tive occasion with n\any special invited guests. Mrs. Richardson expressed appreciation for the thought- fulness of the McHenry Senior Citizens club, mentioning that the table favors would add a great deal to the festivities, making the tables very color­ ful and bringing pleasure to the residents. One of the newest things in men's fashions is that of the two button cuffs rather than the use of cuff links. This is newer than the one button cuff and is not as much trouble as that of using links. It grieves me soul t' hear o' "0 many young women takin' steps t' make it impossible fer 'em t' have a child. Seems t' me that a woman who has been through the experience o' moth­ erhood, is better fer the ex­ perience. As for havin' more than one baby, that's up t' the individual, but no one knows, what a beau­ tiful experience it can be, un­ til it happens. The miracle of life, bein' a part o' the life- givin' power o' God's world, is such a fulfillment o' bein' a woman, that I jist cain't un­ derstand what makes these wo­ men want to be eliminated from the scheme o' Mother Nature. As I sit here, a rockin' an' a thinkin' about it, it occurs t' this ol' granny that, perhaps the ones who would deprive themselves o' becomin' a moth­ er, may not be the kind o' persons t' make good mothers, anyway. So, I guess there may be some good in it, as the old sayin' goes, "There's some good in most things." There ain't no reason t' go berserk over the "Population explosion," an' I don't think this is the real reason fer some gals a takin' this course o' prevention. I think it's a sort o' "coppin' out," so' they won't be caught up in the web o' responsibility, fer the len'th o' time it takes t' rear younguns. Wi' all the problems, be- settin' parents t' day, ye kin hardly blame the young adults, who're not so sure o' them­ selves, anyway, t' try an' steer away from the responsibility o' turnin' out commendable off­ spring. There ain't any need t' go t' extremes, in any way, but jist t' be a bit conservative in the number o' children they have. Durin' the 1920's we had somethin' like the idee a bein* promoted t'day,, keepin' the families down t' two 'r three, at the most. Lots o' folks ob­ served the popular behavior, an' a great many didn't. But the most o' my friends limited the number t' two an' three. The depression was in full swing, an' that made it more important t' observe the trend. Then there wuz a sudden in­ crease in the number of off­ spring, which, I think may have been due t' the state o' the economy. Better think hard, afore takin' sich drastic steps. There's moderation t' be used in every- thin', even in havin' babies. I jist hope that a lot o' these young folks won't be sorry, some day. Modern science ain't perfect, by any means, an' it never kin compete wi' nature, I don't care what anyone says! The Great Power, that gives life t' ever*- thin' on this globe, must be considered, an'no one knows the outcome o' preventin' human fe­ males from followin' the pat­ tern o' their Maker. Women may be "liberatin"' them­ selves from the most beauti­ ful experience in life, the ex­ perience o' natural conception, the beginnin' o' natural mother­ hood. Grandma Radtke ed with pink and White carna­ tions. The groom's brother, Ken­ neth Blake of McHenry, ser­ ved as best man. Ushers were Ben Chelini of McHenry, the groom's uncle, and Tony fatt- lett of Sebree, Ky., a cousin of the bride. The bride's mother chose a light blue wool crepe dress. The groom's mother wore a pink lace dress and a mat­ ching sleeveless lace coat. Following the ceremony, a dinner reception was held at the Diplomat restaurant in At­ lanta for fifty friends and rel­ atives.
