        A t the chapter house a few weeks ago the traditional five pounds
  appeared and was opened amid the usual breathless silence. The cards
  of Bonita La Favor and Conrad Kech were enclosed. The wedding will
  be in June.

        The engagement of Katherine C. Bremer to Franklyn Mattson, D.K.E.
  has just recently been announced.
