There were other interesting events on the calendar, but it was an environment of stiff white satin, calla lilies and organ notes that held primary interest.

Time was when June was the month of brides, but that day seems have waned. Now February, preceding the dull days of Lent, is one of the most popular wedding months. The Lenten days, which sometimes drag in town. present an opportune time for a honeymoon in Europe or a cruise on the Mediterranean. The fact that several weddings were solemnized in the morning hours added to society's interest.

Social New York has few sartorial problems and it enjoyed settling the question of what to wear at a morning wedding. The majority of guests chose silks and satins, while some appeared in tweed and topcoats and others chose fur wraps. slipped over sleeyeless frocks accompanied by little jackets. Mrs. Stanwood S.

Adler BERKELEY, Feb. 9. "You must have the proper goal in life," reiterated Dr. Alfred Adler, the founder of "Individual Psycholspeaking before Phi Beta Kappa honor society of the University of California, yesterday at luncheon. The luncheon was held in Stephens' union on the university campus.

"Everything," claimed Dr. Adler, "depends on the goal." Describing the unusual child, the prospective criminal, the neurotic child, the abnormal in one way or another, as products of a lack of social adjustment, Dr. Adler insisted on the necessity of a social control of their ambitions. "The abnormal child," he said, "is unadjusted. He has a goal in life that seems all right to him, and so far is right.

The criminal thinks that thieving is all right; as does the counterfeiter think that bad money is all right. The point is that what the individual thinks all right is quite enough. His idealism must coincide with the necessities of social structure. LIFE IS TWOFOLD "Society condemns the thief," declared the famous psychologist, "for not knowing that is wrong. Life is twofold.

It is individual and it is social, and really these two apparently opposing aspects of the problem of life are the same thing. The- individual is social. Everything he does is social. Laughter is a social gesture. His very sense organs ave social in their functions.

The great point is that the individuality of the individual must be made to see, perhaps unconsciously, but made cognizant of the fact that the individual must have aims, goals, drives that are consonant with the consonance of society." TELLS OF CLINICS Dr. Adler spoke at length of his work in Vienna with children in clinics, where he is, when in Vienna, busy with the problems of adjusting the lives of the thousands of children under his jurisdiction. "It the child has the wrong goal, we discover that fact and change the goal. Children are made, not by a juxtaposition of causes pushing from behind, so to say, but largely by their ambitions, by stars to which they have hitched their carts and which drag them on for good or 111." The recognition of this fact is at the base of all educational problems, declared Dr. Adler.

"The sooner teachers recognize that they must draw out the child rather than push them along, so to say, the better it will be for the world." Accounts in S. F. Probation Office Praised by Auditor SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. all city departments under rigid' scrutiny as a result of the discovery of account discrepancies, and shortages reported, the adult probation office and the juvenile court were commended by the grand jury audit committee when It was discovered that the probation office had $3000 sunplus and the juvenile court books balanced. W.

H. Nichols, county probation officer, and J. C. Astredo, chief juvenile probation officer, were congratulated by the committee. Astredo, it was suggested, should have a revolving fund to cover the expenses of his office.

Nichols, In April, will have held his position for the past 20 years. The mysterious. shotage which the audit committee has been pursuing for days came to light for a moment yesterday when the committee failed to find $310 in the accounts of Nat T. Messser, real estate man, who conducts sales for the city. The item covered a sale of junk for the Municipal railways in 1922.

The purchaser paid $500 deposit and was to pay the remaining $310 upon delivery. He never paid the balance, but records indicate that he got his purchase. The "loss" 1s believed to be due to the habit of "charging" items in a lax manner to one department or another and never checking back on them. The committee will resume its inquiry, Monday, when the final report will be made to the grand jury.
