AT CONSTANCE DINNER PARTY

dinner party for Miss Judy Nott
and her fiance, Mr. Bertram
Levesque, of London, prior to

which court whist was played.
Judy and Bert were called to
the front and Mrs. Elgin Nott read
the following address: "Dear Judy
and Bert: We understand that in a
week the wedding bells will ring
for you, so your kinfolk have gath-
ered to wish you well. You've turn-
ed a page in Life's big book; we
wish you joy indeed, the best of
health and happiness is what we
hope you'll read. And if at times
some things go wrong, you can be
thus assured that joy tastes sweet-
er after pain, because you have
endured. Now, Judy, this part is
for you; listen, I'll tell you a sec-
ret, dear, on a subject carefully
studied for years; deeply engross-
ing for tongue and for pen about
the fashions' and failings of men.
They hate to be fussed, and they
love to be fed; they hate to be
driven, but all can be led; and if
canned goods, Mrs. Jack Moylan;
sugar, Helen Maloney; bath towel,
Mrs. Foster Bennett; mixing bowl,
Mrs. Lew Coyne; pillow cases,
Michael O'Reilly; flour, Mrs. Jack
Moylan; sandwich plate, Donna
Gordon ; aluminum kettle, Ted

ies, Mrs. Tom Simonsen; Indian
blanket, Mary Clark; three pounds
butter, Michael O'Reilly.
you are careful, far-seeing and
wise, you first can suggest what
they later advise. Now, out of
their wisdom they'll counsel apace,
but if you'll just sit with a smile
on your face, you can do what you
mean to, whatever they say. If
you'll let them imagine they've got
their own way, they are pleasant
and tactless and troublesome things
but useful companions, whatever
life brings. Be tender and tactful,
amusing and then you can do what-
ever you like with men.
"Now Bert: You are sitting here
before us as others have done be-
fore, and we know you are wishing
you could beat it out that door.
But before you go, my boy, I want
to make you. feel at ease, so listen
to my words of wisdom, please.
Getting married, my boy, is a won-
derful joy, but it's not just for
laughter you make her your wife.
It's for all sorts of weather, for
all sorts of strife,' for winter, for
summer, in fact it's for life. It's
for sunshine and rain, for pleasure
and pain; it's not just a promise
to love now and then, but a pledge
to stay faithful and fond of her,
when she burnS the biscuits now
and again. Now that you have
found a woman to cherish all your
life, we're quite sure she'll prove
to be a true and loving wife. May
we all wish you both health,
wealth and happiness, just a little
token of loving thoughts and true.
We ask you to accept this gift of
money with every best wish from
your relatives."
Judy and Bert each thanked
everyone, and the remainder of
the evening was spent dancing to
music . supplied by Scott Pawson
and the Riders of the Sante Fe.
