June 20, 1938
Dear Euphemia and Ralph:
Coming events usually forecast
their shadows, so we, your friends
and neighbours, had happily antici
pated your marriage. To-night we ga
ther here to offer you our heart-felt
felicitations. Citizenship offers us
certain privileges, and one of these is
home-making, a primary and essent
ial unit of a nation’s citizenry. To
accomplish this work, you have en
tered a state of life wherein you may
harmonize your consideration for
each other into mutual helpfulness
and achievement. It is not our inten
tion to offer advice. Rather, it is to
encourage you by recalling some me
mories, and by, probably, glancing
through the crystal into the future.
You have your origin in the pioneer
settlers who claimed this country
from- its wild state. To-day we be
hold trouble abroad, we enjoy peace
and prosperity. What might our an
cestors expect of us? They have be
queathed us an heritage of customs,
and opportunities.''Yes, your ancest
ors were law-abiding, honest, and
thrifty, and injected a spirit of con-^
fidence into their respective commun
ities.
We believe that you both have nat
ural aptitudes for putting into effect
the spirit o’f former years and of
showing a real appreciation by im
proving the standards of livelihood
already prepared for us' in the furn
ace of sacrifice by others. With such
an origin and background your hope
and courage need never fail you, and
our best wishes accompany you.
There, is nothing so relentless as
the passing o’f time. Probably fifty
years hence, some one or ones may
be returning to the scenes of child
hood years and with tingling imagin
ation recall the memory of guardian
spirits, of loving helpers, of teachers,
and of best friends and also saying
“I pity the man who never felt the
warmth of a mother’s love—or her
slipper.”
In'conclusion, may we ask you to
accept these gifts, a lamp to brighten
a dark hour, a vase to hold your roses
of love, and a reflector to mirror your
happy home. *
Signed on behalf of S.S. No. 12,
Cecelia St. Marie, Annie Taylor,
Vera Taylor, Mary Dow.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Cameron thank
ed their friends for their thoughtful
ness and kindness to them and invit
ed them to come to Ashfield to visit
them in their new home. Lunch was
served and the evening spent in danc
ing.
