Tribune on weddings There is no charge for publishing accounts of weddings and engagements, just as there is no charge for items used in news columns. Both engagement and wedding forms are available at the Tribune office.

Pictures of either the bride or bridal couple will be used for wedding or engagement pictures. If pictures are desired with both the engagement and wedding accounts, there must be at least one month between publication of the engagement announcement and the wedding date. Accounts of showers held for the bride-to-be must be turned in to be published prior to the wedding date. Timeliness is important; therefore, the later a wedding account is received, the less space will be given to the story. Brides are asked to return completed wedding forms prior to the wedding and to inform photographers of the necessity for immediate pictures.

If the wedding account is submitted more than three weeks after the ceremony, no picture will be used and the story will be carried as a brief announcement.

Tribune photo by Carol Wait day. The two local women were honored for completing the maximum two consecutive terms in state posts for GOP women. Simcox tells GOP women of Russia "Enlightening, educational, but not enjoyable." That's how Ed Simcox, Indiana secretary of state, described a fourmonth visit to the Soviet Union when he spoke Wednesday in Seymour to Ninth District Federation of Republican Women. Simcox participated in an exchange visit of young political leaders about 19 months ago. He told the group he found Russia a depressing country.

"The only areas the Soviets stress are military and space programs," he said as he described life style, government, churches and farming in the USSR. On the national side, he stressed the need to support the president. He reviewed Reagan's fiscal policy and warned even more budget cuts are necessary and that Americans will have to tighten their belts. Simcox praised local candidates for their efforts for the party and the community. He is planning to be a can- Edna Pfaffenberger, right, and Sheila Mowery, left, talk with Indiana Secretary of State Edwin J.

Simcox during a district luncheon of Federation of Republican Women WednesSecretary didate in the 1982 elections but is still undecided as whether he will run for re-election as Indiana secretary of state or for the post of Sixth District congressman. Sheila Mowery, Ninth District Republican Women director, presided at the luncheon held in Immanuel -Lutheran Church social room. Approximately 120 women attended the meeting, one of three district meetings GOP women hold annually. Lib Mellencamp, Seymour, sang Never Walk Alone" and Lord's Miniature red, white and blue Uncle Sam top hats were attached to single red carnations in crystal bud vases for table decorations. Preceding the luncheon there was a reception for two Seymour women who have completed two terms in Republican women state posts: Mrs.

Mowery, who has served as Ninth District director for four years, and Mrs. Edna Pfaffen- At Wit's End by Erma Bombeck I have always been enamored of antiques. Show me anything that is ten years older than I am and I'll buy it. The more children I had, the more respect I had for anything that lasted 1 longer than 15 minutes. At one point in my life, I had grave concern as to where the antiques of tomorrow would come Would anyone find any value in chenille bedspreads with spit-up stains all over them? Would a chest, with a decal of Miss Piggy on the drawers, held together with Play-Doh, ever be considered a Would a dealer ever covet a one-owner playpen inhabited only by a 34- year-old mother during a mid-life crisis? There is no need for concern.

I have just discovered that today's antiques are not the survivors of things that were a part of daily lives. They're the things that were never used at all. -My candidate for antique status in our house is a rocking chair. I bought it when our first child was born because it was "cute." It looked like a rocking chair ought to look like. Everyone said so.

It was never meant to hold a person or to rock back and forth. The seat was designed for something other than a human form, the chair was too close to the floor, and the rockers were so short you fell out of it every time you rocked forward. Every time someone came into the house, they headed for the rocker and had their knees bent to sit down before we yelled, "NOT THAT CHAIR!" The chair also had other qualities. The wood was hard. The kids couldn't even carve an initial- in it or make a scratch on it with a nail.

They tried. Why haven't we gotton rid of the chair, you may ask. If you have to ask that question, you do not know women at all. will get you anything including a spot in the front hallway. Besides, there is no doubt in my mind that I am saving a piece of history for generations to come.

Someday it will be in a little, shop in the window with a sign on it that reads, $1200 years old! Mint condition!" and some naive little couple will exclaim, a wonderful home that must have come from. It doesn't have scratch on it. We'll rock our first baby in it." And that, dear readers, is the logic behind a boot scraper (circa 1700) I bought that scrapes the sole right off the shoe like a saber. Copyright 1981, Field Enterprises, Ine.
