The College News VOL. XVI, NO. 20 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE), PA., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1930 PRICE, 10 CENTS Science Club Hears of Vanishing Males Technical Aspect of Research on Chromosomal Theory in Insects Given. SCALE OF SEXES SOUGHT "The males of the species of insects (Icerya purchasi) which I am studying ar� constantly becoming fewer," said Mrs. Schrader at a Science Club tea in the Commons Room on Monday afternoon, "and therefore are well suited for study by an ardent feminist. Only 9 per cent, of the present popula- tion of the species are male, but no male was necessary to produce 4350 individuals in the Dalton greenhouse. This array of fatherless individuals is coincidental with the statement that 50 per cent, of the Bryn Mawr gradu- ates marry and 75 per cent, have chil- dren ! The species is commonly known as the "cotton cushion scale" which attacks all citrous fruits and is one of the few cases in which the importing of antagonistic insects could be used in combating it.___________________ An Italian working with these in- sects discovered large broods being produced where no males were present and believed it to be an example of parthenogenesis. His account of the chromosomal mechanism behind this reproduction roused Mrs. Schrader's interest in the subject. � The application of the chromosomal theory of heredity to sex determina- tion wasjntroduced in the first decade CONTINUED ON THE THIRD HAOK '----------- Dr. Gray Discusses Naval Conference In Tuesday Chapel Dr. Gray com- pleted the summary of the results of the Naval Conference. Carrying his talk* over from the previous time, Dr. Gray said that the present conference has limited England and the United States to fifteen battleships, where the former figure had been eighteen. There is to be no replacement of bat- tleships until 1936. Returning to the Washington conference of 1922. Dr. Gray said that the ruling concerning aircraft earners was to stand as before, but cruisers were not to be built over ten thousand tons in weight. But their number was not limited, and par- ity became seriously endangered in 1924 anff 1925. when the output of cruisers, except in the United States, was very large. Consequently at the conference in 1927 the cruisers were divided into two classes: those of ten thousand tons and carrying eight-inch guns, and those from six thousand to seven thousand tons and carrying six- inch guns. Great Britain was willing to limit the cruisers to about the num- ber which she possessed at that mo- ment. She did not feel that seventy were too many for the protection of her trade routes and for defensive pur- poses. According to the present set- tlement, however, she has reduced the number to fifty. The next question to arise at the conference of 1927 was that of ton- nage. At the time our cruisers already built amounted to seventy thousand as against Gr.eat Britain's three hundred and twenty-seven thousand. Our pro- posal was for two hundred thousand, but we finally agreed to four hundred thousand. The present agreement is three hundred and twenty-three thou- sand for us. and three hundred and forty thousand for England.

The Undergraduate Association wishes to announce thaf Dr. George Pierce Baker, Director of, the University Theatre, Yale Uni- versity, will speak on The Drama Since 1900 in Goodhart Hall, on Monday evening, April 28, 1930. / {Specially contributed by Myrtle Dc I'aux.) p v * 11 is unfortunate that there- is so lit- tle dancing to be seen. Although noth- ing gives one such a sense of irritation as a poor dancer, a good dancer, more than any artist, can impart to an audi- ence complete satisfaction. And there was no question of the genuine delight the members of the dance club and the few others present felt as they watched Miss Jessie Cameron last Thursday afternoon. Miss Petts, who had invited Miss Cameron to give a short program for the club, introduced her as a fol- lower solely of the Duncan School, hav- ing worked under Elizabeth Duncan at Salzburg and taken part in the festival in commemoration of Isadora Duncan at the Trocadero in Paris. We had been warned to expect that Miss Cameron, at Miss Petts' request, would begin by demonstrating some tech- nical exercises: but these proved to be so pleasing that no one knew when the exercises were over and the dances proper had begun. Slowly moving from behind the grey curtain, she first ap- peared and simply walked across the floor, but graceful, relaxed, from her bare feet to her curly red hair. Again, she ran lithely and showed her extraor- . CONTINUED ON THE THIRD PAGE Sword Club Defeats Bryn Mawr With Foils In a very close and evenly-matched fencing meet last Thursday the Phila- delphia Sword �lub defeated the three Bryn Mawr representatives, Miss Parkhurst, Miss Seligman, and Miss Watts, by a score of 5-4 matches. Very little of the fencing was distinguished for its form, and much of it was some- what desultory�nevertheless it was particularly interesting in that it re- vealed certain definite characteristics of the various fencers. It was noticeable that all the members of the Bryn Mawr team waited for an attack to be launched against them, preferring the advantages of a defensive position to the positive and dangerous elements in an attack. Miss Parkhurst did some very fine fencing, controlling her movements in both attack and defense to a greater extent than the others, and preserving an outward calm which served to make her sudden, rapid advances and retreats more effective. Many of the matches produced a wild type of technique in wielding the foils which was difficult to name, but rather more interesting to watch than the extreme caution of a few of the bouts. Of the Sword Club representatives, Mrs. Twining was most restrained, but the most spectac- ular fencing was done by Miss Brylo- ski who had occasional flashes of splendid form. The two judges, Dr. Herben and Mr. Warren, gaye exhibition matches with both the epee and the saber, weapons which �Orov'<'e ^ar better op- portunities to dazzle the spectator. These two quickly moving and en- thusiastically played bouts did much to make fencing seem a very exciting sport. Even here however there was little actual mastery of technique. The CONTINUED ON THE THIBD PAGE � M Benefit Performance of Parsifal Disappointing The performance of an art-work such as Parsifal deserves attention under any circumstances, to say nothing of those which would seem to be departures in Metropolitan Opera tradition. This year in addition to the Philadelphia Tuesday, and New York Good Friday, perform- ances, there was also one on Wednes- day, by means of which the summer schools of Bryn Mawr and Barnard were "benefited" to the extent of twelve thou- sand dollars. Tin's and the facts that there were no cuts, that Wednesday's was the first evening performance in ten years', Mr. Serafin conducted instead of Mr. Bodanzky, and that Elizabeth Ohms sang Kundry for the first time here, should be extra breeders of�comment. And they are, which is fortunate for the1 Metropolitan, since there is less space left in which to consider the perform- ances themselves. Of the two which w* attended, both in New York, the most that we can say is that a few indi- viduals made an honest effort. But if Mr. Serafin roused the orchestra out of the lethargy of former years, he counter- balanced this feat by his reading of Wagner, who might have been Rossini as far as Mr. Serifin's tactics were con- cerned. Consequently a great deal of the dignity and impressiveness were lost, CONTINUED ON THE THIRD PAGE Registration There i^ only one registration appointment posted for each student in college. Many of these have not been used this week, so that there will not be enough appointments to go around. Every student must sign, byfpre 5 P. It. Iriday, April 25, for an appointment. with Miss Carey or� Miss*Gardiner. Anyone who fails to sign before that time will be fined $5.00 for late, registration. Students may not cross off .their names when they have once signed, without getting a sub- stitute. A fine of $2.00 will be imposed for breaking an appoint- ment once made without sending a substitute. League President Virgil Bimillennium Wrongly Calculated Literary Reputation Growing in Spite of Criticism of 19th Century. BRYN MAWR READS POET MARJORIE FIELD, '32 The League Elects! The Bryn Mawr League takes pleasure in announcing the elec- tion of Miss Marjorie Field, '32, as its President for the coming year. Miss Field has been Chairman of the Junk Committee during the past week, and has been ac- tive in Americanization work at the Bryn Mawr Community Centre. New Courses A number of new courses have been announced for next year. In French. Professor Canu will give a one-unit advanced course in the Historical Background of French Literature. In German, Professor Mezger will give a one-unit advanced course in modern German literature. In Second Year History Dr. Robbins is offering a one- unit course for the first semester, Europe from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. In English. Dr. Glen has a one-unit advanced course in the seventeenth century, and Miss Garvin will give a half-unit elective. English Poetry since 1850. In Biol- ogy, Dr. D. E. Smith will give an elective one-unit coursey in Bacteriol- ogy, which is open to^aTTyone who has taken First Year Biology. College Girls Offered Experience in Geneva Since 1925 an unusual opportunity as been enjoyed by a limited number of American college girls in the form of a most interesting summer in Gen- eva, Switzerland. The group is under the auspices of Mrs. Elbert F. Baldwin, who has lived for many years in Geneva, where she and her husband, formerly European editor of the Outlook Magazine, have many friends and contacts. Realizing the significance of Geneva as a radiating centre of influence along many lines, the aim is to select ibout twenty representative girls from vari- ous parts of the country, who are anxious for a wider knowledge of world affairs, "to push back their hori- zons," to let them absorb as much as they can of this rare atmosphere. Girls from the largest Eastern colleges and also* from the West and South have been represented in the group, and their response has been the best testi- mony to the value of the summer. Preference is given to girls below the senior class in order that the bene- fit of the experience may be shared when they return to college, as a small contribution to the upbuilding of an understanding international attitude in American life. The group travels to Europe in the Student Third Class accomodations, and on arrival has a few days of tour- ing and a week Tn'ParN. In Geneva, the girls live in small groups of three or four in the homes of choice Swiss families. A fair knowl- CONTINUED_ ON THE THIBD PAGE A mistake has been made in cal- culating the date of "the Virgilian bi- millennium, began Dr. Taylor in Chapel on Thursday morning. If, as is generally accepted. "Virgil was born October 15. 70 B. C. his centennial anniversary was in 31 A. D. and his bi- millennium is not until 1931. Musso- lini has cleverly avoided choosing be- tween the correct and the commonly accepted date by celebrating the an- niversary^ for a whole year, from Oc- tober 15. 1930. to October 15, 1931. When one considers 'the throngs of pilgrims- who will go this year to \'irgil*s birthplace it does not seem strange that so many Italian states ad- vance their several claims to its pos- session. An Englishman has recently found a new site for Virgil's farm, forty miles outside Mantua. The traditional one is much nearer the town; but more, pilgrjms will go to the N'aples that Virgil loved so well, the site of his tomb, than to Mantua. At Rome this summer the American Academy will give a course on "Vir- gil and Eternal Rome." Some travel companies are celebrating the anni- versary by having special Virgil pil- grimages and cruises. At Bryn Mawr we have been asked what notice we are taking of Virgil at this time. The answer is that we are reading him. Even those who do not read Virgil's Eclogues and Bucol- ics in first, year Latin are acquainted with him. Every student here has read the Aeneid or part of it. usually not without deriving some value from the experience.

One of my favorite video game news sources is GiantBomb because they embrace long-form video reviews. I've enjoyed JustAdventure for (wow!) at least 7 years and I'd love to see the most frequent reviewers' on-screen personalities. Plus, the game looks great even if I never play Chains of Satinav!

Liang Bua is famous the world over following the finding of an ancient skull. The skull was that of a short human called Homo floresiensis, found at a depth of 6 meters. Its brain measured only 380 cc (compared to a minimum 1200 cc for a normal modern human brain). Archaeologists are of the opinion that this skull originated from an era back in time some 18,000 years ago.
In addition, in a depth of 10.7 meters, ancient animal bones were also found including those of stegodon (an ancient elephant), komodo, turtles, and lizards.

The right baby mattress helps your newborn sleep peacefully
You've chosen the perfect crib and an adorable set of baby sheets, but the most important item in your baby's sleeping gear will be the mattress. Guarantee that your bundle of joy will sleep peacefully by investing in a well-built baby crib mattress. Baby mattresses range in thickness from two inches to five inches and can be either rectangular or round. Innerspring mattresses are a classic choice and provide great support for growing bodies, while foam mattresses are naturally hypoallergenic and can be constructed of all-natural materials.
Start by measuring your crib and selecting a mattress that will leave no more than two fingers of space between the mattress and the crib frame, because you don't want your little one's limbs slipping into the extra space. Otherwise, your mattress selection will depend upon the shape of your baby's crib or bassinet. Rectangular cribs are most common, but round cribs are popular as well, and bassinets often feature rounded ends.
Whether you opt for a foam mattress or an innerspring mattress, make sure that it's firm enough to support your baby's growing bones. Babies need firmer surfaces than young children's or adult's mattresses provide, not only because their bodies are smaller, but also because a soft sleeping surface could pose the risk of suffocation. Test how resilient a mattress is by pushing down on it with your fist and seeing how quickly it springs up again. Many foam mattresses have the advantage of being naturally hypoallergenic, so you needn't worry about baby developing a latex allergy.
Innerspring mattresses tend to be more expensive but also more durable than foam mattresses. On the other hand, foam mattresses vary greatly in thickness and price, with thicker and denser mattresses holding up best over many uses. If you're concerned about chemicals used in making your baby's mattress, look for a model that is certified as being made with organic materials. Whatever type of mattress you choose, remember to add a waterproof mattress pad to protect it when you and baby don't quite make it to the changing table in time.
With so many choices, buying a baby mattress comes down to the parents' preferences. You'll find safe, comfortable options in every size and style in Kmart's collection of high-quality baby crib mattresses.

XV, NO. 18 BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE), PA., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1929 PRICE. 10 CENTS SPRING PROGRAM FULL OF INTEREST Lectures Announced as Well as Patience and Varsity iDramatics. '29 COMMENCES THE 5TH The long pull'is practically over. After spring vacation only the spurt remains. And this' spTrtg promises to be particu- '� laVly crowded with events and activities. ^�T*he week after we get back, besides offering., the charms of make-up exams, shows scarcely a day without something to do besides study. .We are due back at nine "o'clock on the morning of April 8th. On April 10th Mr. Henry Wise Miller will speak on Finance in the Com- mon Room in the afternoon. On the eleventh Mr. Breasted will deliver the first of his series of lectures in Goodhart Hall at 7.15 P. M. As originally an- nounced this will be on the subject: "The Place of the Near East in Human De-- velopment" However, the last details are. not -yet complete. Mr. Breasted lands in New Ybrk sometime this week, returning from abroad. : ~ On April 12th Professor Singer, will speak in Wyndham on some subject con- nected with philosophy. This lecture has been arranged by Mrs. Delagujia. .Finally, on Saturday will be Varsity dramatics, and the tea-dance. The program of the busy weeks that follow will include Dr. Breasted's other three lectures, on April 19th and 26th, and on May 7th; an address by M. de Lamix, who is coming on April 16th in- stead of March 27th as originally an- nounced, and Glee Club on May 4th. Little May Pay will actually be on the first of May, on a Wednesday instead of the traditional Friday. (Warning to the authorities! Remember the chipped beef.) And so it goes. On Wednesday, the fifth of June, the class of 1929, as much of it as is left, will receive its degrees. Something New For . Jaded Appetites We are blase young things. We have sometimes suspected it, and now � Miss Carey has told us right to our facts. Our appetites are jaded.' There is no doubt of it, sad as it may seem. Basketball, sunbaths, and Drop the Handkerchief no longer satisfy us as � amusements. We crave always some- thing new, something different, some- thing . . . etc. F.xcitement: that is what youth lusts for in these days of nervous strain and super-acceleration. �W/uid^w we have found it. Our jaded appetite has been stirred to its shallow depths, and we. gladl& pass on the secret. '�*�'' The new "sport ftt technically known as Bathroom Hunting. New houses (doubtless the Realtors prefer the term rjonies) spring up like mushrooms over night in this locality. Where yes- terday was a clump of violets, or an unsullied dump-heap, today is an Eliz- abethan Manor, or a Colonial Home- stead, or a French Chateau with its paint still* wet, and its lawn still un- extricated from the mind of God. Each and every one of these new houses has a bathroom. That is but simple logic. As a matter of fact each and every one has at least three or four bathrooms. The search for, the discovery of. and the inspection of these bathrooms is the^ essence of the new sport which has so thrilled a few of our choicest spir- its. No one, however blase and fed up with .what life has to offer, could fail to respond to the charm of these bathrooms. Each one is unique. They never duplicate. The ingenuities of design are awe-inspiring, and even ter- rifying. There are some with orchid- colored tiles, others are blue with purple stripes chastely following the window and all other outlines. There are cream-colored ones, saffron ones, salmon ones. There are chequered floors and striped floors, marble tubs, light fixtures dripping elaborate "^tass ear-rings, and mirrors of every con- CONTINUEt* OS PAGE 3 r We Elect The News is pleased to an- nounce its elections for next year. Erna Rice, '30, has been elected Editor-in-Chief and* Catharine Hove. '30, Copy Editor. \T, Ho- bart, '31, and V. Shryock, '31, were promoted to the position of Editor. D. Cross, '30,'was elected Business Manager and E. Baxter, '30* Sub- scription Manager. Professors in Despair at Lessening of Lessons "They are called lessons because they lessen every day.'.* said the mock- turtle to Alice. With this quotation'from the well- known epic of childhood, Miss Carey began her chapel talk on Friday. March 22nd. Every year. Miss Carey continued, one hundred and twenty, freshmen enter this institution- of learning. All of them are filled with speculation; some of them with doubt. A small portion comebecause of the intellec- tual urge; a stifc smaller group come because their families want them to; �the general mass "just comes." Whatever the cause of their advent they are all filled with a feeling of freedom. Freedom from the close supervision of schools: freedom from the eagle eye of the parent. They are consumed with a sort of madness, the cause of which they are slow to divine. We have no rules to speak of. We have, supposedly, reached an age of discretion. But the lack of any super- vision whatsoever causes, in the first five or six weeks of college, a gradual slackening on the part of college fresh- men. � This situation is not new. It has been observed for years with no par- ticular alarm. But should this general slack be allowed flTlast tod long? If it does we may be breeding scoffers. By the fall �of Sophomore year, things have" usually taken a lunge for the worst. The sophomore feels she knows her way aroitnel. She i- no longer awed. Her required courses bore her to extinction. She has.the prerogative of being no longer "on trial." What is there left to do? She smks into an indifferent coma from which she emerges only long enough t� play a rubber of bridge. All this is'but natural. And, too. perhaps some may emerge more ma- ture "and with some**idea of the true meaning of college. If this_b_e true., we can endure the first frenzy and boredom. In many cases this first period of uncertainty is n*6t undergone at all. But in the majority of cases one feels little firsthand interest in work. The professors are in despair. The real trouble lies in the fact that it is no longer fashionable to be en- thusiastic over the education of women for the world. We used to believe that we were the future "men and women of our country." but now it is almost never said to us. The upper classmen think, rather, that they are doing the college a great honor by attending the j courses it offers for their approval. The privilege of college life and Edu- cation is little realized by most of us. We slide rapidly over the fact that only one-half of oner.per cent of the young people in the country are able to at- tend college courses. They are indeed "called lessons be- cause they lessen every day," said Miss Carey to us. Personal Religion i Christ Shouldered ..the Sins of Others and Gave Self to World. Sunday evening chapel in the Good- hart Music room was led by Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin, of the Union Theological Seminary. The key to the address was a vivid sentence from the first epistle of Peter, a sentence which Dr. Coffin con- siders a summary of what has been thought abbut the crucifixion through the centuries: "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to sins should live unto righteousness, by1 whose stripes ye were healed." Christ at Calvary bore sin in three senses, closely related to the eight factors' in Judea which composed the crucifixion. Men of prayer were the first factor, men who, with missionary zeal. Were pushing religion ahead and yet were Christ's most vigorous oppo- nents. The Pharisees, the "accidental priests," were another clement; their religion was simply lucrative in aim: when Christ, "the upstart," upset the money-changers, it was something not to be tolerated and the good feeling, engendered between the Romans, and Pharisees by the political plans of the Empire, determined" Christ's removal. The Imperial government was repre- sented by Pilate; this system of gov- ernment required cruelty, yet Pilate tried every device to escape condemn- ing Christ until the, Pharisees touched his patriotism and prevailed upon him. Then again there was Herod Antiphas, the gay young man of the world, who "togged out" Christ for the benefit of his men of war: if ever there was a "vacant life" in need of Christ, it was CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 MISS SCHENK IS APPOINTED �.' t DEAN OF GRADUATE COLLEGE Dramatics Cast . .

Current Events Sophomores and Seniors Triumph in Basketball Monday afternoon the sophomores added another victory to theiaalready full quota' They defeated the Fresh- men 22-18. The floor must have been very slippery because most of the play- ers spent at least a few moments re- clining. The game was snappy and amusing. Every one on the field seemed to be enjoying herself and the spectators were awarded for their loyalty. Thc^last quarter was* the best. The players joined in-with the onlook- ers and shouts arose from every direc- tion. It didn't matter who had the ball or what was being done with, it; a> long as there was action of some sort the cheering lasted. Both teams played well, but the freshmen were a little nervous and 1981 had the advantage of experience; the result was the 22-18 score.

The illustrative dances were com- posed and danced by Miss Phoebe Guthrie, Miss Gertrude Prokosch, and Miss Perera. -.- * /. Fenwick Likens Contest to Race With No First Place Taken. ""In Chapel on Wednesday the rT- ! sult> of the Current Events Contest" were announced.

Two announcements of the greatest significance to the future of- Bryn Mawr were made by Miss Park in chapel on Monday morning to the^js- sembled graduates and undergraduates. To carry out more effectively the established policy of the college in regard to the graduate school, to es- tablish its organization on a firmer basis, and to increase its benefits both to individuals and to the college, the following steps have been taken. First, Dr. Eunice Morgan Schenk has been appointed Dean of the Graduate School, and second, it has been decided to turn Radnor into a Graduate Hall. In preface to these announcements, Miss Park summed up the function and character of the Bryn Mawr grad- uate school. It is a source of great advantages, and o^ great disadvantages to the college. The first of its disad- vantages is its expense. It raises the per capita cost pf each student at Bryn Mawr by one-third, and, correspond-" ingly. owing to the policy of charging a minimum rare to graduate students, it brings in very little. Another draw- back is that it lessens the thrill with which the faculty might otherwise em- bark on such a policy as Honors Work. Hut the advantages of the Graduate school far outweigh these considera- tions. It provides the opportunity for advanced graduate students to, study in a small residential college, where# the seminars contain a very few stu- dents. :and Where quiet and pleasant living Conditions afford the best pos- sible atmosphere. It brings to Bryn Mawr teachers who would otherwise be most unlikely to come here. It furnishes individual attention to every student; and its foreign fellowships in- troduce a stimulus which is a great spur to good work. For the undergraduates there are the CONTINUED ON PAOB S 1931 and 1932 Win First Interclass Games ' Old age is sad thing. The poor Sen- iors tottered nobly about the floor on our time next year perhaps it might be a good idea to attend Tuesday evening Current Events talks. In these, numer- ous "tips" are given, and by a regular attendance of such informal weekly meetings and a discriminating perusal of the newspapers, undoubtedly one could "pick a winner" in the next contest. The judges were Dr. Fenwick, Dr. Wells. Dr. Chew,. Mrsr Smith and Miss Taylor. understand the virile onslaughts of the Freshmen. Youth had its day and 1929 was forced to bow_ its proud neck to a 42-17 defeat. The seniors went down fighting, however, and their- brave efforts were furiously applauded by their sister class and attendant spirits. The line-up was: Seniors: B. Humphreys. 2222: C. Henry. 22221: C. Swan. K. Balch, R_ Wills, J. Barth. Freshmen: Engel. 222222; Rasch. CONTINUED ON PAGE 3 Tea-Dance to Be Given Before Varsity Dramatics On Wednesday, March 20, the I'ndergraduate Association held a well-attended meeting in Room F to discuss the question of dancing. The most important decision arrived at was that a tea-dance should be held on April l.t, from four to seven in the - afternoon before Varsity Dramatics, under the auspices of the Undergradu- ate Association. This will be the first dance ever held at Bryn Mawr, but it will be of a very mild and informal character. A substantial enough tea will be served to enable'the guests to survive without dinner, it was an- nounced. Rockefeller Hall will be used for the dancing, and an orchestra will be provided. Tickets may be obtained from Miss Kitselman. The total price for play, supper, and dance for two is six dollars. A place will be provided for the gentleman to dress before the play. Girls are to cut in, and may attend , without escort. Not a dissenting voice was raised against the proposal for the tea-dance, and a large majority of those present announced their intention of inviting a guest. A less popular measure was the plan for installing i~ victrola in the May Day room, where girls may take their friends to dance on Friday and Saturday evenings However, in spite of a number of "noes." a sub- stantial majority favored this idea also. However, it was decided that while the plan is being tried out. a victrola from one of the halls will be used. - Then if things go well, a new and superior one. perhaps an orthophonic. will be installed.

Subiya Zaidi
After hearing a lot of stories of my friends finding the right match on Shaadi.com, I decided to create an account for the same reason. Shaadi.com offers a hassle free environment to contact people regarding matrimony.
After a year of sending and receiving interests, One fine day I got a mail from his mother from Bhopal(M.P). Before our families could take this forward, I contacted Gauhar and within no time we realised we shared so many common interests. His great sense of humour bowled me over and I found ticking all the boxes that could make me say I DO. We got along too well and finally decided to involve our families.
We had a small roka ceremony on 2 august 2014 and as soon as I finish my post graduation in May2015, our wedding date will be finalized.
We would like to thank Shaadi.com for making us meet. Had it not been there my parents would not have considered a match beyond U.P, my hometown.

Marriage is a once in a life time moment, that changes your life forever. Its said that marriages are made in heaven and solemnized on earth. We proudly pronounce our marriage as "HALDIRAM KA HADSA"
On one fine evening while having a chat with my father, I decided to try out the so called search for life partner myself and as I really didn't had any other way out I decided to register on some online portal. Though I wasn't new to these online portals but yes was new to Shaadi.com. Days later I registered myself with the portal and started getting some random responses.
After few days I again thought of making a fresh start and this time started looking for the matches and send some interests. The only thing going on in my mind was to meet a Punjabi Delhi based munda.
On June 10, 2014 I received a mail and message form this guy named "Nikhil B"; which I hardly paid any attention. Same evening my phone had some missed calls from different numbers, which again were ignored.
June 11, 2014 11 AM, there was a phone call from Mr. Nikhil; he said "I am a member of Shaadi.com and has accepted your interest." I was bit amused as I hardly remember, when did I send an interest. I asked, "Do your parents know that we are talking to each other for matrimonial purpose"; to which I got an affirmative response. I asked such a question as firstly I don't really had much faith on online portals and next I just wanted to get sure if the guy's just passing time or in a serious intention to talk about marriage. After exchanging each other's required details I asked for his mother's no. He told me half the number and phone got disconnected; and I got sure the guy is just there for time pass.
2 days later I decided to call him and check out his intention; and to my surprise he came to be a genuine man. He not only text me his mother's number but also made both the parents talk to each other. Meanwhile I had to go out of town for a day or two. Back at my place my father decided to meet the guy at his office.
Due to some reason he wasn't able to visit and till then I was also back in Delhi. I received a call from Mr. Nikhil, and he asked the reason for cancellation of meeting. Later in our 23 minutes first friendly conversation we decided to meet at "HALDIRAMS" the very next day.
July 1, 2014, 1.15 PM was the time decided to meet. I reached early as I wanted to, waited for him for few minutes then called and asked, "Where are you?"; I forgot to be formal. After few minutes he was there and as we were looking for each other, we almost crossed each other in the mall corridors, it was hard to recognize from the pictures, but all thanks to mobiles, we finally met. Finally we sat at the first table at Haldirams for almost 2 hours. In that conversation I hardly asked any question and neither waited for any answer. The guy spoke at length about himself, and I could feel what all he said it was all from heart. I kept on listening and for the first time in my life I was at peace with myself after meeting someone; I don't what it was but a very unique feeling. After few minutes we bid goodbye and was back at our places.
Next day in the evening got a call from Nikhil, and we decided to make our parents meet. After two to three meetings first at Nikhil's place and then at mine our roka was decided for July 26, 2014; and the functions continued from Dec 4, 2014 Sagan Ceremony and Dec 6, 2014 Wedding.
Though its a very simple story where two people meet and they just get clicked and a story is formed, but for me it is the story of my life, my journey to reach the person of my life. Its not that we are made for each other, we are two very much imperfect person with are individual way of thinking, but the only thing that worked between us is our thought of being true to each other and the fact of not hiding anything from anyone. Marriage is another journey of life which the two needs to travel with trust, love and understanding. We started our journey on Dec 6, 2014 and still in a way of discovering each other, and in that way finding ourselves in each other. I have a strong faith in destiny and believe that it made me meet Nikhil, which I proudly say the love of my life, not to find my perfect match but the one to be with in the next journey of my life.

Alekh Khanna
Well, to be honest, never expected a "cyber" match to come true. How wrong was I !
If I remember correctly, the first time when I pinged her (April), we chatted for almost 5 hours, till about 1 AM in the night (which then became a regular affair). This was followed by us talking for the 1st time on the 3rd day, which lasted for well over 3 hours (and continued to increase as the days went by).
However, not everything was rosy. There were some major differences between the families. It was barely a month when I uttered the three magic words and she reciprocated "me too". Then and there we knew that we cannot let go of each other. Both of us helped the other through the hard time, talking, understanding, guiding and more importantly, trusting and holding on to one another. Finally our parents met in October, all differences were resolved and our marriage finalized !
One of the happiest days of our lives.

After I took a Paid membership on Shaadi.com I Randomly selected few profiles and one of them was her profile. She was not the first person whom I contacted. The first person whom I called did not respond so she was next on the list. As soon as I called her I heard a Pleasant Voice which took me for a Surprise..I spoke to her once and was skeptical that will I ever get a chance to speak to her again. luckily the very next day I got a call from her and we spoke again. We became very close during our second call. Our thinking, Our life style, Our Family Backgrounds and Most of the other features matched between us.
Now it was time for us to take this relationship to the next level. We had to let our parents know about it. It wasn't an easy task but somehow with the help of our relatives we managed a get both the families together. Her family Traveled all the way from Lucknow to Bangalore to meet our family.Our Engagement and Marriage Dates was Finalized
We got Engaged on 16th October 2014 and finally got married on 25th November 2014.
So from the bottom of our Heart We Both want to thank Shaadi.com for providing us with a wonderful match

Our story is about love in the digital age. To be very honest, we were both at a place where we weren't sure if we would find our soul mate. Then we connected, through Shaadi.com, and a whole new world opened up for us. We are each other's miracles and Shaadi.com was our guide into a world we had till then, only imagined and wanted. We didn't take very long to realize that we matched in all the right things... the rest as they say, is history. We are getting married in May this year and feel truly blessed to have found each other through this medium. Many many thanks to you Shaadi.com!

Well this is how it all started. I made my account on Shaadi.com and thought lets see how it goes. I kept on receiving daily interest on regular basis. One day while on Shaadi.com I came across the profile of Jaspreet Kaur. I liked her profile and immediately sent the request. I was little skeptical whether she will accept the request. She accepted the request and I contacted her. On 20th November 2013, we started talking and in no time it felt we were talking since ages.We met after one month and then our parents. In April 2014 we got engaged and finally we got married on 6th December 2014.

We got connected through Shaadi.com and within couple of talks we realized that we were made for each other. We met twice after introducing our parents. He came twice to meet me all the way from Pune to Mumbai. In less than a month my family visited his place and did a small ceremony named 'Roka' (a ceremony performed in Punjabi's) this ceremony signified that now we are together and will not be looking for any other partner. 7th Jan 2015 was the date when Vikram visited our place in Vasai along with his father to finalize the engagement date. Vikram and Urvashi, soon to be called as UV are getting engaged on 26th Feb 2015.

Khushboo Agarwal
He sent me a request on Shaadi.com. I was a bit frustrated from the responses I got here. I opened my account to deactivate it but ended up accepting his request. The same night we started talking here and eventually moved to chatting on We clicked instantly, both talkative people and having a huge load to share with someone. We talked for about 6-8 months and then told our parents. In the beginning, the Jain-Agarwal combo didn't please anyone, but after a series of convincing, I got a yes. He had his siblings corner my mother-in-law to get her to agree. And finally, here we are one month to go for the final day.
It was not easy to find a right partner. Its my second marriage and I been on and off on Shaadi. And I been searching for 2years. I recently became a paid member and seriously focused on personal life.
I sent interest to Siva, he liked my profile and photos. We talked few times, before we met first time. During our first meet, we liked each other. Involved our parents and our horoscope matched as well.
We felt we are compatible each other, we are engaged now and planning about marriage very soon.

It was an accident that I met my wife of two months now through Shaadi.com. I was living in Vapi for almost 10 years now and I never met her before...just thanks to god and Shaadi.com. She use to filter out in my case and I use to be in her account. But I saw her profile as a possible match as I use to be a paid member. With in 1 month after taking the paid service I met her and we got married in next three months. I never thought that the paid services really works...but now I always refer it to my friends or colleagues. I find it a good web service on matrimony.
Arun Mittal
We accept each other on Shaadi.com then I mailed my bio data on her personal mail id. After that her parents come to meet me and my family as happens in arranged marriage. After this formal meeting I met her and fall in love with her. I proposed her on the occasion of our engagement with 7 roses with a famous and beautiful sentence in front of all our relatives. After that I sing a song for her and dance with her even though I don't know any of these. Now we love each other and converted it to a typical love marriage. we both are eagerly waiting for 10th Feb, our wedding date. Thanks Shaadi.com

Espresso Draper Leather Bed
Great Bed Framed! Exactly as advertised!
I have a window above my bed and needed to find a bed frame that would fit under it. This was not an easy task and I was THRILLED to find this bed. Excellent bed, exactly as advertised.
HOWEVER, I was extremely UNHAPPY to find that I couldn't order it in my local store but had to order on the web site. Don't get me wrong, I order lots of stuff online but this item came with a $120 delivery surcharge. Boo.
But still, it's an awesome bed.
December 26, 2013
Perfect bed.
I bought this bed for my new bachelor pad after recently getting divorced. The leather matches my decor perfectly. It only took 45 minutes to assemble and the delivery took about a week. It was exactly what I was looking for at an affordable price. I bought a low profile box spring to go with the mattress and it is just slightly taller than the side rails are deep, making my queen mattress fit perfectly on top. It appears that the problems with the slats and the middle support mentioned in the earlier posts have been resolved since I have had no problems. I highly recommend this product.
November 28, 2013
Awesome & stylish
Best purchase ever. Recently divorced and split a high-end furniture set. He got the king leather headboard. Bought this in queen to match existing set - looks rich and expensive. Love, love it. Get compliments on it all the time.
November 16, 2011
Love it....even after all of the trouble
[...], the bed is solid...looks awesome and it fits great in the small bedroom we have. Actually seems to give us more room!
March 27, 2011
I'd very much like to see that in a king
very comphy love love love the style
January 29, 2011
This is the most amazing bed EVER! I am in my last year of undergrad, and it was time to move from "nice college student furniture" to adult furniture. By far an amazing deal!
January 25, 2011
Best Bed Ever
I really loved the product...but ordering it online was not the best experience. It took me 3 weeks from the time I ordered to actually get the bed. [...] They told me if World Market said it was okay it would be fine. World Market denied my request...so I had to assemble it on my own. In addition, I will not be receiving my member rewards because on worldmarket.com they do not have a clear indication of where you should put you member id. Although the product was great...the shopping experience has put the company on my list of last resorts for shopping.
January 13, 2011
nice bed
I saw this bed on sale, and I really liked how it looked. Originally, I only wanted a leather or upholstered headboard, but since this whole bed cost less than a normal headboard, I decided to buy it. I am really impressed. I assembled it alone, and it didn't take too long. It feels rather sturdy, and does not squeak yet. I do have a full-sized mattress, so I wish it came to fit exactly. Other than that, it's a great bed at a great price.

A symbol of glamour, culture and passion, Paris is a city to discover and revisit, which impresses the visitor by its beauty, by the imponence of its past and by the vanguardist way with which it faces the future.
Paris is famous for its romanticism, but you don't need to be in love to enjoy all its beauty. It is a city where you will want to go back to many times throughout your life, no matter who with. More than a city for lovers, Paris is a passionate city, where each minute should be lived with intensity. Each step could bring a new discovery and each place could seem more magical than the last, which makes it one of the most visited places in the world. "To learn", "to relax", "to shop", "to taste" and "to walk" are only a few of the verbs used by visitors of all languages. However, "to love" is the all-time favourite, since it is impossible to resist the charm of the French capital. Weather in Paris is temperate, which an average temperature surrounding 13 degrees, but snowfalls in the winter are not a rare event. During the warmer months, in the summer, thermometres can reach 30 degrees, so autumn and spring are the most recommended times to visit, thus escaping greater overflows of tourists in the most popular attractions.In order not to get lost, it is important to know that the city is divided in 20 districts, with a circle expanding from its core. Street signs include the information regarding the district where the street is located. Metro, bus, trains and taxis are easily accessible, but riding a bike or walking could be equally recommended, despite being more tiring.
