Strangest of Love Tangles Three Weddings, One Groom and Two Brides, Huntington, W. Va., Nov. 13 — U. 8. G. Salyers, Huntington pho- tographer, at last has got his mar- riages all straizhtenéd out. But the process of straightening them brought on one of the strang- est romances you could well imag- ine. Salyers, nine years ago, wWas op- erating a chain of photograph stu- dios in ‘West Virginia, Ohio and At the top is Mrs, Alice Whitt Salyers, the second Mrs. Salyer; center, U. 8, G. Salyers; below, Mrs, Adealia Thornton Salyers, the first and third Mrs, Salyers, Kentucky. In Ashland, Ky., he hired Miss Adcalia Thornton as his assistant, speedily fell in love with her, and in 1919 took her for his wife, Their married life was happy and uneventful for five years. Sal. yers says they never once quar- reled. Then, in 1924, Miss Alice Whitt came to work for Salyers in his studio at Irontou, O. In a short time she and Balyers had fallen in love with each other. Divorced—and Married! “We tried to forget and sub- merge our love by taking on more and more work to occupy our minds,” says Salyers. “The af- fair flourished for nearly three years, and T saw that it could not g0 on—that in falrness to every- one involved I should divorce my wife and marry Alice. It was an casy matter to get the divorce, My wife understood. Alice and 1 were married on Junc 9, 1927.” % But all three remained the best of friends. And when Salycrs and his new bride went on their honey- moon, the first Mrs. Salyers went along, too. Then they came back to Huntington and all three worked together in the studio. When vacation time came they all went together on another tr'p. After they mot back, however,( the first Mrs. Salyers got a job in Chi- cago and left Huntington. Her last words to her former husbani were, “If ever you are divorced and want to remarry me, I'll be waiting for you.” “When she sald that,” says Sal- yers, “I was on the point of going with her, for during the time ve had been divorced T had had the opportunity to study her from the @andpoint of an outsider, and 1 had grown to realize that I still loved her. But I let her go and we didn't write, She didn't wint to cause me of my wife any un- happiness, and tried to drop com- pletely onut of our lives.” Re-Marries First Wite But it didn’t work out that way. Salyers could not forget his former wife. The second Mrs. Sal- yers realized it! and finally, a few weeks ago, she and Salyers were divorced. Salyers promptly began the first Mrs. Salyers. He located her in Chicago. He wired her that he had been divorced. Promptly he got a wire from her saying: “Your telegram has made me happier than I evef have been since the day we were married. Coming at once.” S0 she came hack. And a few days ago they were remarried. “I helieve everybody is happy | at last,” says Salyers. |Evening Model Has Long Fitted Cuffs Paris, Nov. 12 (®—Velvet half- leeves with bands of jeweled trim- | ming at the top and an expanse of bare shoulder above are Agnes' modernistic _treatment of a_black {velvet and jeweled evening dress.

By Mrs. Agnes Lyne, It is commonly said that the sons of great men seldom do their fathers credit. We may add that it is quite true that the children of eminently successful, morally impeccable par- ents often labor under a real handi- cap. Consider the child whose father represents extraordinary success, is highly respected in the community and whose mother is the pattern of purity, goodness, gentleness and | charm, One would thibk that such a child, by sheer force of example, would become an admirable and happy adult. But it does not neces- sarily work that way. The child of perfect parents may well be troubled by the comparison | of their perfection with his own weakness, ignorance and fallibilty. Ther virtue niakes his own small sing look like crimes. Thefr knowl- edge makes his ignorance seem vast and endless. Their eminence inten- sifies his own feeling of insignifi- cance, If he tries to live up to the in- humanly perfect ideals they repre- sent he suffers daily defeat. It be- comes a matter of entirely too much importance with him to make a school record am creditable as that of his father before him. TIn choos- ing his career he is influenced more by the wish that it be as high toned and distinguished as his father's than by a genuine interest or ability in any particular field. His lapses from virtue seem unduly black and he feels gnilt out of all proportion to his misdeed. His mother's good- ness becomes a repreach instead of an_inspiration. It is far less important for the This afternoon frock comes in soft tonca of brown and beige transparent velvet. The pattern is bold, but not un. at the unusual neckline and at the child to have before him the per- fect cmbodiment of an ideal than to live in an atmosphere of commou striving toward virtue and achieve- ment. Perfect parents need not be perfect people, but they do need to be people with sufficient imagina- tion to let their children live in & world scaled to their powers, to let them feel that every small success is real achievement.
