ding theme of orchid and pink was1
carried out in the dining room where (
the prettily appointed table was cen-
tered with a crystal bowl of pink and
orchid sweet peas and queens wreath.
Crystal baskets were on either corner.
Streamers of pink and orchid tulle
fell from the electrolier to the baskets
where they terminated in cleverly ar-
ranger bows. The baskets rested
gracefully on centers of Maya lace.
Mrs. J. D. Edge received the guests
and was assisted by Mrs. R. R. Ney-
land, Mrs. C. F. Adams of Marshall
and Miss Maud Walker of Ladonia.
The wedding music ws given by
Miss Elsie Mae Fraley of Ladonia
at piano, and Miss Mary Lynn Sheely
of Commerce who played a violin
solo, “Romance in A,” by Lieurance.
The Truly,” was sung by Miss Ida
Mae Buford.
As the strains of Lohengrin's wed-
ding march were heard and took
their places in the parlor. The brides
maids came first. They were Miss

able taffeta in the green and pink

a very current through the bar. Dur-
ing this operation the bar is held at
one end between the jaws of a tung-
sten-faced, water-cooled, copper
clamp forming one terminal, and at
the other end by a similar clamp
forming the other terminal, the lat-
ter clamp hangs in a bath of water-
cooled mercury. The bar centers or
shrinks both in length or cross sec-
tion w’hile the carbon reduces the
thorium oxide to thorium metal. The
density of the bar is now about the
same as pure tungsten which has
been melted, and can be hammered
hot by machines, called swagging
machines, into round rods, and then
into small wire. The wire after
reaching a certain diameter, is drawn
down cold through diamond dies to
filament size. This gives us the final
filament material. When the tung-
sten is heated to a high temperature
in the vacuum tube, the thorium

it was the only metal known that
could be healed in to glass without
cracking it, and still give a vacuum
tight joint. Then no other rietal with
like properties was known. The in-
creased demand for lamps, vacuum
tubes, and the cost platinum demand
a study of all the possible metals
that might substitute for this valu-
able metal. After a long investiga-
tion, an alloy of nickel and iron was
found, which had the same coeffici-
ent of expansion as gla?s. It was
necessary to produce this alloy wire
with a thin copper coating in order
to obtain a vacuum tight joint be-
used in our early vacuum tubes. The
comparatively cheap copper-covered
alloy wire, today, takes the place of
the rare, expensive element, platinum
used i nour early vacuum tubes. The
alloy is used, then, only for the joint
between the glass and the wiv; in
that part of the tube known as the
stem.

PRETTY AFFAIR
Austin, Texas, June 14.—It is now
becoming apparent that there will
soon be no guaranty fund hanks in
Texas. This is reflected by the re-
cords in the State Banking Depart-
ment which show that these banks
are constantly on the decrease until
now there are only I-IK using that
system of guaranteeing deposits out
of a total of HI 5 State bank and
trust companies. All of the others
use the bond security plan. This last
was made possible by the Legislature
and the decision of the Supreme
Court construing that act.

Austin, Texas, June 13.—The eyes
of Texas will be centered on Wichita
Falls Monday, when the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee meets
to arrange the official ballot for the
Democratic primary election July
24.
In official circles in Austin, con-
siderable speculation has been made
on who the committee will select to
fill the vacancy caused by the resig-
nation of Dw ight Lewelling of Dallas.
Lewelling was reputed to be a sup-
porter of the Ferguson administra-
tion and if an anti-Ferguson man is
named it will signify, political sages
here say, that the reirs of the narty
are in new hands, but if a pro-Fer-
gusonite is selected it will show, they
claim, that Gov. Miram A. Ferguson
and former Gov. Jarties h. Ferguson
has the whip out of the socket.
The ballot will include this year
sixteen State Senators, fifteen mem-
bers of the House of Representatives,
Governor, Lientenant Governor, At-
torney General, Treasurer, Comptroll
■er, Superintendent of public Educa-
tion, Commissioner of Agriculture,
Land Commissioner, one Railroad
Commissioner, one member of the
Court of Criminal Appeals and one
member of the Supremo Court.
Arthur Edison of Hamilton is
chairman of the State Democratic
Executive Cimmittee.
The Republican State Executive
Committee is scheduled to meet in
Dallas Monday to arrange the first

Eugene Nolte of Seguin is chairman
of the committee.

publication must have liked an edi-
