The bride is the daughter of of 940 Union and Mr. Jones Jones of 826 Danforth St. The er Club following the ceremony. The bride appeared in a gown of Alencon lace over satin, styled with Sabrina neckline, tapered sleeves, and a bouffant skirt.

JACK A. BAILEY Alton Rebekah Lodge Members Observe Brothers Night Friday Alton Rebekah Lodge observed brothers night Friday In Odd Fellows Hall, entertaining 42 guests. A group of women presented skit entitled, "Sweethearts On Parade." Each brother was presented with a gift trom the noble grand, Mrs. John W. Brewer.

During the meeting a cash donation was voted for the Mike Vanell fund. Plans were completed for the April 1 party honoring District 28 officers, and for a card party sponsored by the Rebekahs and Odd Fel. Jawa of Western Star Lodge on Gadgets Will Halt Jam In Bathroom By KAY MHERWOOD (NEA) Do you ever feel more like a traffic cop than A homemaker during the early 1 mornIng rush for the bathroom? Any aid to help unsnarl the conflict between school hound youngsters and office-bound adults, both on uncompromising schedules, is thankfully revelved. Restrieted floor space in most bathrooms doesn't permil too many fancy accessories. As traffic manager.

you might try analyzing the bottleneck. Are Junior and Jane trying to brush teeth at the same time that dad is trying 10 shave? Is Sally enjoying 8 nice bath while the line queues up outside? In our house, some mysterious signal impels all three children to want to wash, brush and groom themselves simultaneously. Because the bathroom has two doors. this often leads to a noisy argument on precedence. A sense of time is important to smooth bathroom operations.

So the addition of a clock with a timer and a sweep second hand can be of help on more than one count. During the rush hours, eithcr morning or evening. a time allotment set on the timer will prod the dawdler into speedy action. This won't do for dad but the children will abide by the non-discriminating buzzer. Besides its usetulness in timing home permanents.

hair rinses or similar cosmetic routines, a clock can he real aid to building good dental habits in the children. Sometime. just for fun, try this experiment: time the number of seconds your kids spend brushing their teeth after meals or at bedtime. You may be surprised to find the time not more than 30 or 40 seconds. This isn't long enough to do the thorough job that will help protect their teeth from decay, says the American Dental Association.

It won't specify the length of time one should brush but I was told that two to three minutes is close to the mark. A timer is a great help here. A shower usually takes less time than a bath and is more refreshing in the morning, 1 think. If you have a showerless bathroom, you might consider adding a portable shower attachment to the tub. Small washbasins with single hand control faucets are so compact they can be fitted into almost any corner or counter and are not too expensive, it plumbing connections are easily made.

An extra basin can speed the boys on their way or forestall the embarrassing announcement that the main basin is full of mother's nylons. The ruckus over hanging up towels after use is not limited to our family. I have a hunch. Individual towel racks may he the answer but there isn't always room when there are several folks sharing one bathroom. One solution which I've seen in several versions is the towel "ladder" or what looks like A close cousin to the garden trellis.

1 have seen some ready-made but a young carpenter friend tells me there's no trick to making one in wood, either free standing or attached at the bottom 10 a bathroom cabinet. The Mature Parent Parents Often Unknowingly Cause Childhood Rivalries By MURIEL LAWRENCE Her name was Rosie. and she lived two miles nearer the country school we attended than I did. So, sometime during the third grade, I got into the habit of stopping in at Rosie's house on our way home from school together and refreshing myself with her mother's cake and milk before resumming my way. I expect her mother got tired of deeding me.

I can still remember the afternoon she did something about it. A tape measure in hand, she came into the pantry where Rosie and I were guzzling marshmallow layer cake and said: "Girls, let's measure your braids and see who has the biggest ones." My braids turned out to be a quarter inch thicker than Rosie's. Thereafter, our companionship underwent a change. When we walked home together, I felt an unhappy but insistent pride in my superior braids and Rosie resentment of her skimpier ones. Soon we each found more comfortable friends for ourselves.

By turning us into competitors, Rosie's mother, 4 Ann Landers She Believes in Ex- Wife 'Paddling Her Own Canoe' DEAR ANN: 1 almost dropped 1 my glasses in the coffee yesterday when I read your answer to the woman who was bothered by her husband's exwife. You said. "When you marry A divorced man you buy the total package." And you said she had to put up with it forever yet. Are you nuts? I don't recall in my marAnn Landers. ringe vows anything about putting up with 8 drunken ex-wife.

My hushand's first wife can't put her foot inside my home. When the kids are visiting here she doesn't even dare telephone them. If the can give cusIndy to A trampy drunk. hecause the judge has the insane idea that kids are always better off with their mother. then let her paddle her own canoe.

NO PATSY. DEAR NO PATSY: I heard from many women who screamed in unison that must be out of my mind. But the advice stands. don'1 give a continental who did what to whom or where the blame lies. When a family breaks up it's the kids who catch it in the neck every time.

Any father worthy of the name has an obligation should I say privilege. to share in making important decisions which involve 'his kids. The number two wife can bar his predecessor, from her home and hang up on her when she phones if she likes. but' no power on earth can break completely the fink that binds a man to a woman who gave him children. There may be no remaining love or respect but they share a common responsibility.

This canoe that you think should be paddled by the ex usually has the kids in it. DEAR ANN: I'm a high school senior and in love with my English teacher. He's a middle-aged man (about 301 married and has two children. The worst part is he doesn't even know I exist. He calls me by my older sister's name half the time.

She had him for English two years ago. Don't tell me it's just fatuation. It's real love. Next to him these high school boys look like infants. It's revolting.

I've always been a good student, especially in English, but I'll be lucky to get a C. When he calls on me I panic. How will I be able to think straight in college next year when he's in my mind constantly? Please help me. BIT. DEAR BIT: 1 promise you will recover from this illness just about the time you graduate.

It's a common ailment. Almost every boy gets a mad crash on at least one teacher. And the gals -well. you have testified. they fall, too.

DEAR ANN: Since you are a Doctor of Problems perhaps you can prescribe a cure for this situation. I'm a member of the honored profession of nursing. I. helong to a club for nurses which does a terrific job of service. There are numerous members who like to be thought of as members of this society.

but they refuse to do anything beyond paying dues. They won't participate in the activities. attend meetings. go to conventions, accept committee assignments or do anything that requires work. Is it fair for them to ride the gravy train ate the expense of the conscientious members? M.W.G.

DEAR M.W.G.: Every organization has its faithful and dedicated wheel-horses. They are few in number. noble in spirit. and incredibly energetic. And then-there are the other 95 per cent.

Since you have generously bestowed upon me the title Doctor of Problems, I must sadly inform you the prognosis is "no known cure." Are you going steady? Making marriage plans? If so, send for Ann Landers' booklet, "Before You Marry--Is It Love or Sex?" enclosing with your request 20 cents in coin and large, self-addressed, stamped envelope. (Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her in care of the Alton Telegraph enclosing a stamped, self-addressed (c) Field Enterprises. Inc.

Neither Child Nor Mom Is Happy Here By RUTH MILLETT You aren't making yourself or your child happy whenYou never make him wait for anything he wants, but knock yourself out to supply all of his wants as quickly as possible. The things we prize the most are the things we yearn for before we get them.

the things we aren't quite sure we are going to get at all, the things that don't appear as soon as we have expressed a wish for them. Parents who give their children everything are bound to feel resentment when "everything" soon comes to be taken for granted as it certainly will. You let him get away with heing rude and disrespectful to you. Being disrespectful doesn't make a child any happier than it makes his parents. Children need to know that parents not only deserve but demand respect.

You act as though your child's plans are always more important than the plans of the adult members of the family. That encourages the kind of selfishness and self-centeredness you are going to find ditficult to put up with. You frequently decide that it would be easier to do something yourself than to insist on your child's doing it. This not only enourages the child to be lazy and irresponsible but it makes you responsible for duties your child should be assuming. Before you realize it you will be feeling like a martyr because "nobody ever does anything around this house but me." You let your child procrastinate instead of insisting that things be done by a certain time.

When putting off becomes a habit your child will suffer for it--and so will you. Deep Green Salads Richest In Quality Take advantage of the assortment of salad greens in the market to make appealing and nutritious winter salads. Besides lettuce and cabbage. Ellen Ebersole, University of Illinois home economist, points out that the salad greens inelude Bibb lettuce, Chinese cabbage. escarole, romaine, chicory, kaye and spinach.

These leafy green vegetables are outstanding sources of vitamins and A and iron. Also, they are one of the best vegetable sources of calcium. And the greener the leaf, the greater the nutritive value. Salad greens are also a boon to weight watchers because without dressing their calorie content is very low. To select good-quality salad greens.

Miss Ebersole gives these suggestions: Choose those that have fresh green leaves. The stems should be crisp and fresh. Avoid those with visible insect injury or with coarse stems. To help you identify the less familiar salad greens, Ebersole points out their features. Bibb lettuce has ruffled, medium-green leaves in a loose head.

Chinese cabbage is a pale green, long-leaved vegetable in a small, elongated, firm head. Romaine is found in a large, elongated head. Its leaves are coarser than those of Chinese cabbage.

Beauty Tips No matter how glamorous long nails might seem, they are attractive only if they're not chipped and cracked. The housewife and the gal who spends her day at the typewriter should remember this fact. For both of their workdays can cause broken nails. It would be better to keep the nails at fingertip length.

They will not break or chip as easily and will always have that well-groomed look. seasoning to salmon or different to add a gourmet's See recipe below. Lemon Butter Patties One-fourth pound (12 cup) had effectively separated us. I'm sure that her wish to separate us was unconscious. As are our wishes to estrange the brothers and sisters in whom we excite the spirit of competitiveness.

When we tell Bully, "Why don't you get as good spelling marks as Sister did?" we may believe that all we want to do is stir ambition in Billy. Is this really so? Aren't we really trying to arouse envy of Sister in Billy? Aren't we deliberately undermining his friendly feeling for her? Aren't we using his separating envy of her to force him to struggle for our favor? If we go in for this kind of rivalry incitement, let's not go to pieces at the idea that we're seeking power for ourselves. We all like power. The trouble with the kind we're after is that it backfires. The Bible story of Jacob and his sons is a perfect example of what happens to parents who play one child off against another.

Under the guise of loving his son Joseph, old Jacob made him the subject of such envy by his brothers that they sold the Wonder Child into slavery.
