the war. Some spokesmra, vtho pre
tend to be in the know, say that we’ll
be in it within a few weeks after the
lend-lease bill is signed.
Others declare that the president
intends to keep us out of war if he
possibly can, that he is firmly set
against sending soldiers to Eim>pe,
but that he doesn’t want to talk too
much about it because he’d prefer to
have Hitler, think that an A. E. P.

All agree that a flat statement by
the president declaring limitations
on ohr aid to Britain would be en
couraging to Hitler. But th# public,-,
as well as many congressmen, wish
that they coi^ be told privately Just
how far Mr.-Roosevelt intends to go.

Lovely Party for Miss Gamer
Lovely in every detail was the
party given by Mrs. James Fulmer
and Miss Ruth Starnes at the Jo
anna club house Monday evening
for Miss Evelyn Garner, popular
bride-elect. ,
A pretty arrangement of snapdrag
ons and fern was used in the living
room.
The guests were given the ‘‘Bride’s
Book” and asked to register with a
recipe or a wish.
Contests, ‘‘A Bride’s Trousseau,”
and a ‘‘flower wedding” were enjoy
ed, after which the honoree was giv
en a corsage of white carnations by
the hostesses.
The guests were then invited into
the dining room where a three-
tiered wedding cake made a lovely
centerpiece for the table, surround
ed by gifts.
Mrs. Fulmer and Miss Starnes, as
sisted by Mrs. Roy O’Dell and Mrs.
Cecil Blakely, served ice cream and
angel cake, using the traditional col
or scheme of green and white.
If we felt the danger to the peo
ple of the United States, we would
be producing vastly greater«quanti
ties of the things we need.”
