But what we loved was paddling the g rivers of Florida on weekends. We chose to pool our prom funds to buy a canoe instead, and we never regretted the decision. I moved away soon after high school, and declined several opportunities to be a brides maid back home. My sisters had less formal weddings. The closest 1 ever get to men in cummerbunds and tails is watching Frasier reruns. And if I hadn't gone to a few weddings of.cousins or coworkers over the ycjrs, I'd have assumed the tuxedo had gone the way of the hoop-skir- t. slow-movin- "When my son and I went shopping recently for his first tuxedo, I was by far the more na-i-4 of.the pair. After all, hed had thfc opportunity to quiz his fronds about popular tux styles, shops and rental prices as the prom date approached. But Charles fashion knowledge didn't prepare him for the clerk who ambushed him with a measuring tape, touching him in alarmingly intimate ways. Relax! Im just getting your size, the clerk said, running the tape up the inside of my son's leg. Once hed recovered his composure, Charles chose a black tux with white piping from among dozens of styles available. He declined the top hat, cummerbund and cane, but he couldn't resist the patent leather shoes, size 1 3. It was my turn to swoon. The tally for an evening's rental was black-and-whi- te $90. But it was worth it. On the night of the prom, Charles sweetheart arrived in her satin gown and pearls, her hair swept up to reveal an elegant neck. Jcnn was stunning: her dancer's grace and long, full skirt combined to make it appear that she was gliding across the floor when she walked. She and Charles looked like prince and princess, exchanging rosebud boutonniere and wTist corsage. I snapped pictures of the two of them until Charles could no longer disguise his annoyance for the camera, and then they were ofT to a fancy restaurant and the Capitol rotunda for the prom. '1 sat up late, remembering Michael, radiant and handsome, in that first tuxedo, on our wedding day so many yean ago. I realized I would not again see Michael in a tuxedo until the next wedding in our family, some years down the road. a good plant for Utah yards - TYYlAC, '' Tuesday and Thursday after' FOLLOWING A PATTERN: Chelsea Eyre, 1 3, cuts out the mountains she 9th ward of the LDS church in Centerville, were working on last week. will sew onto the Centerville sesquicentennial flag her beehive troop, from the throughout city work on decorations pioneer-styl- e By DICK WALTER correspondent Standard-Examin- i 'When Centerville cele- - brates its 1 50th birth- day, nearly 100 colorful, pioneer-styl- e flags will adorn Main Street. Over the past few weeks groups of young women have been getting together and sewing flags to go along the street for the sesquicentennial festivities. Vicki McPheeters, the leader for a group of young women from the Centerville Ninth Ward, said all the girls have been very excited about the project. The city gave us a set of directions to make the flags, and told us to stay within a Utah pioneer theme, but theyve pretty well left everything else up to us. All the girls have been studying about their pioneer ancestors in our Young Women's program at church, McPheeters said, and this fits perfectly with what we . have learned. I think they have also learned more about Centerville by doing this. Rachel Hiller said she was having lots of fun doing the project, because her second greatgrandfather Ricks was one of the early settlers in Centerville. Ricks Creek was named for him," she said, and having something to do with the makes me feel like I am giving just a little thanks to him."

Young women e. Lilacs love it here, says Jerry Goodspeed, Uldh State University Lxtension horiiculturalist. Lvcn when ignored for several years, they continue to survive and bloom. Lilacs do best in neutral to alkaline soil, which is what we have here in Northern Utah. Many other plants want an acid soil, which can cause problems. They are also easily adaptable to the landscape, Goodspeed says. They can be used as an informal hedge, specimen planting, background shrub and at times ; ' The health clinic follow-up- .' is June 5 from 8.45 a.m. to . 12.30 p.m. There will be a discussion -on Medicaid and SSI on June 8 at 11:45 a.m. Pinochle is played each " fie !

OUTLINING A DESIGN: Beehive troop leader Vickie Bingham outlines a design for one Centerville's Main Street comers. The colors and types of material are left up to the young women. Most of the groups are using cotton sheets and scraps of materials they have collected over the past few weeks. We hope to see lots of different colors and styles hanging form the poles along the street, said Twila Van Leer, publicity chairwoman for the sesquiccn-tennia- l. We want it to be like it may have been back in the early days when women had to use whatever materials were available to do a project like this. The (lags will be flown throughout the sesquicentennial of the flags from about June I that will line st to the end of August.
