As soon as possible after the shower snatch a few minutes from hectic preparations and write thanking all those who gave something. This leaves the decks cleared for prompt notes of apprecia- tion for wedding gifts within about three weeks after the wedding trip. Simple, undecorated note paper is preferable. Neither a) printed thank you or a printed message of thanks on the paper is in the best of taste. This conveys coldness and lack of real appreciation, a rather hur- ried, something - to. - be-gotten- over-with attitude. Notes of thanks need not be| long but should be personal, warm, and sincerely apprecia- tive. For example, such as: Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith, John and I are enjoying the salad bowl and servers very much. We have used it almost daily since returning from our trip. I don't know whether you knew but John is and \old "salad pro", and your \ovely gift makes his tossing especially delightful. We both want to express our deep appreciation for your thoughtfulness and we expect to use your present to us with great pleasure for many years to come. Our best to you both. ~~ Tag gy £ ry N. pates Letters of side eae not be signed "Mary and John Bates". Mary expresses John's appreciation but signs it her- self. The important point is that| the thought and effort behind the gift be all made worth- while by the tenor of the) bride's note to the donor, no matter the size or value of the gift. HOUSEHOLD HINT .

Hanging A Murderer Complicated 'Becomes ' OTTAWA (CP)--Federal gov- ernment procedures in dealing with condemned murderers have evolved in-the last decade into a highly complex system resulting in every possible ben- efit of the doubt going in favor of the convicted slayer. As the royal prerogative: of 'mercy now is exercised, cab- inet ministers and officials in- 'volved in making the final re- view of capital cases before the hangman's trap is sprung are} convinced there are few refine- ments that can be made. These views were obtained in| a series of interviews with solic- itors-general, past and present, and others whose duty it is to prepare for the final review by cabinet. J. Watson MacNaught, solic- itor-general in the present gov-| ernment, said that much more) than the transcript of court pro- ceedings in each case is studied. "Tt has been my desire to get| When someone accused of capital murder is found guilty, whether or not there is a rec- ommendation of mercy from the jury, machinery is set in motion for a careful review of the case. It is the presiding judge's obli- gation to sentence the accused to death by hanging, and to no- tify the justice department im- mediately.
