DOWN LANES WAY By Mrs. Chris Keiffer, Phone 2631 HOPLAND — The first thing we wish to do in the Hopland column is to clarify an error made in June %% regarding the bridal shower of Miss Bea Wiliams. In the first paragraph it was printed her fi ance, Don Hopkins, couldn't believe such a shower, with so many in vitations being sent could happen. It should have read, as your cor respondent had written it, and we quote, ‘The boy, Don Hopkins, with whom Bea's marriage will be Sep tember 1, couldn't believe such a shower, with NO invitations being sent, could happen. We can always understand and forgive small typographical errors, but when an article is changed in meaning, then we feel an explana tion or correction is necessary.
