"HERE COMES
THE GROOM”
“Mr. McMillan was attended
by his brother as groomsman. As
the groom approached the altar,
he was the cynosure of all eyes.
He was charmingly clad in a
three-piece suit, consisting of
coat, vest and pants.
“The ooat of dark material, was
draped about the shoulders and
tastefully gathered under the
arms. A pretty story was cur
rent among the wedding guests
that the coat was the same one
worn by his father and his grand
father on their wedding days. It
was gracefully fashioned with
pockets, and the back was held
together with strap and buckle.
“The groom’s pants were of
dark worsted material and were
suspended from the waist, fall
ing in a straight line almost to
the floor. The severe simplicity
of the garment was relieved by
the right pantalet, which was
caught up about four inches by a
Boston-Brighton worn underneath.
It revealed just the artistic
glimpse of brown holeproof hos
iery above the genuine black
patent leather shoes, laced with
string of the same color. The
effect was rather chic.
“His neck was encircled with
a collar, and around the collar a
cravat was loosely knotted, so
that it rode up under his left ear
with that ~ studied carelessness
which marks supreme artistry in
dress.
“Mr. Hardy McMillan’s costume
was essentially like the groom a
and as the two stood at the
altar, a hush of admiration en
veloped the congregation at the
complete and wonderful harmony
of their raiment. Neither Mr.
McMillan nor his brother wore a
hat during the ceremony.
“The bride "wore the convven-
tional gown, veil and orange blos
soms.’'

SPORTS AFIELD
If you like guns and have the
evil mark of the collector’s in
stinct branded on you, you might
consider combining interest and
instinct and setting yourself up
in the gun collecting game.
It’s amazing how many people
are interested in old guns, as
you soon realize when you stai t
looking over the list of gun
books which have been published
in recent years. A very large
percentage of them are books
on the history of particular types
of guns or on old guns in gen
eral and are not concerned with
fkhooting at all.
How much would it cost you
to make a good antique gun col
lection? That’s between you and
your purse. According to gun
expert Jim Crossman, most guns
are under $100 with the major
ity of those around $26 or less.
If you want to get into the
bame without investing too much
money you can always keep a,
weather eye open for odds and
ends of guns In pawnshops, gun
stores, attics and so on. Even
though some of them mdy not
be in good shape, if you have a
bit of spare time and mechanical
ability, you can clean them up
And make them look almost as
good as new. Of course, you
don’t want to overdo that look-
ing-as-good-as-new business be
cause some of the virtue of an
old gun lies in the fact that it
looks old.
Or you may not be interested
in gun collecting for a number
of reasons. You might then con
sider the matter of collecting
ammunition. In its way that field
is just as intriguing as the gun
field.
Some collectors limit their ef
forts to old cartridges while
others stick strictly to modern
stuff, of which you can get a
pretty good assortment if you
include both commercial and
military types of ammunition.
!S)r maybe you don’t want to
be fussy, in which case you can
combine the two and collect just
any old thing that goes bang.
Ifgj Bat don't say I didn't warn
you. Once you get started on
this collection business you’ll
find it bard to leave alone.

QUADRUPLE AMPUTEE GIVES
WORD OF CHEER TO
FIRST SUCH KOREAN CASE
PINSON, Ala., Dec. 27—One of
this nation's two quadruple ampu
tees of World War II passed
along a word of cheer today to
the man who is believed to be
the first such case to come out
of the Korean fighting.
Fred Hensel, who uow runs a
profitable cattle farm at Pinson,
Ala., said:
“Tell him I get along fine.”
Hensel’s message was sent to
Pfc. Robert Smith of Middleburg,
Pa., who lost both hands and feet
from frostbite.
Hensel asked how Smith was
hurt. Told Smith reportedly lost
both hands above the wrists and
both legs below the knees he
commented:
“Why that’s exactly like Jim
my Wilson.”
Wilson, of Starke, Fla., lost
both arms and legs In a B-24
crash near Burlington, Vt.. in
1944.
Both of Hensel’s legs were
amputated above the knees after
he stepped on a land mine on
Okinawa. His left arm was am
putated above the elbow and the
right arm below the elbow—
“that’s my good arm,” says Hen
sel.
The one-time Army master ser
geant said his farm is prosper
ing. He has 55 head of dairy
cattle and plans to expand his
herd. Hensel himself is unable
to milk, but he supervises all the
work and handles other details.
