to
help
but!
From time to time we remind
the new brides and grooms that
we are happy to report the news
of their weddings at no cost to
them providing they help us by
following the rules.
We know all the friends of the
newly-weds are anxious to read
of the event, but understandably
the news value of these happy
occasions diminishes with each
passing day. It is therefore
necessary to adhere to a strict
policy.
Many newspapers insist that
the wedding reports with the
accompanying picture be in the
office not later than the Monday
morning following the event,
Because we realize it is
sometimes difficult to get a
picture that quickly THE TIMES-
ADVOCATE WILL PRINT THE
WEDDING REPORT WITH THE
BLACK AND WHITE
PHOTOGRAPH IF THEY ARE
IN THE OFFICE NOT LATER
THAN THE SECOND MONDAY
AFTER THE WEDDING.
In the future we cannot
promise to print either report or
picture after that amount of time
has elapsed.
Autumn brides would be wise to
pick up the special form provided
at our office, fill it in before the
wedding and have some one drop
it back to us either just before or
right after the wedding day.
We want to accommodate you
but you, too, must do your part.

J. L. WOODEN,
Principal,
gown of white imported French
crepe. The neckline and sleeves
were trimmed with bands of
French daisies and her Chapel
train flowed softly from the
waist. Her fingertip veil of im-
ported French illusion edged with
tiny French daisies fell in
graceful folds from attached
headpiece of daisies and buds.
She carried a white Bible crested
with pale blue streamers, daisies,
cornflower's and baby's breath
with a miniature orchid corsage
in the centre.
She was attended by her
cousins: Diane Grieve of
Wyoming, maid of honor, was
dressed in a gown of blue em-
bossed organza with puffed
sleeves and square neckline,
trimmed with lace and wore a
white lace picture hat with blue
trim; Suzanne Ferguson, of
Sarnia, as bridesmaid and
Joanne Edlington of Woodstock
as junior bridesmaid, wore
dresses identical to the maid of
honor's. They wore white daisies
and blue cornflowers in their hair
and carried crescent bouquets of
white shasta daisies, blue corn-
flowers, baby's breath and ivy
with blue and white streamers.
Tracey Kapala and Jane
Clarke were flower girls in their
long, dainty, dresses of white
embossed organza accented by
blue sashes. They also wore
daisies and cornflowers in their
hair and carried baskets of
assorted flowers,
David Clarke, in a white suit,
accompanied them as a ring
bearer carrying a small silver
tray of daisies and cornflowers
centred by a blue bow that held
the rings.
The groom was attended by his
cousin Gerald Snell, of London
and the ushers were Joseph
Laurie, Exeter and Brian Tap-
son, London.
A reception followed the
ceremony at the Thames Valley
Golf and Country Club, after
which the bride and groom left
for a honeymoon in Muskoka with
the bride wearing a smart dress-
coat ensemble of Wedgewood
blue with white accessories.
The couple will reside at
Exeter where the groom is on the
staff of the Exeter Public School.
Sfeete Vafeen
Riverside United Church,
London, was the scene of a pretty
wedding when the church was
decorated with assorted summer
flowers and white candles, for the
wedding of Kathlene Faye
Dewar, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
A. Roy Dewar, Exeter and Peter
William Snell, son of Rev. and
Mrs. Harold J. Snell, London. The
groom's father officiated.
Stanley Barnard provided
traditional wedding music at the
organ.
Given in marriage by her
father the bride looked lovely in a
Pat's. Pet Shop is both a boon
and a bane to an Exeter mother's
existence,
A boon because her offspring
spends hours in the shop bugging
the owner with endless questions,
smearing his hands over the
shiny fish tanks and just
generally making a nuisance of
himself.
The proprietor's gain is my loss
• so I'm not complaining.
On the other hand, the presence
of the shop has added yet one
more headache to Mom's already
overworked brain because no
normal kid can do all that looking
without eventually wanting to
purchase. It takes a stern mother
to stand the tirade of reasons why
we need yet one more pet.
First of all it was the monkey.
"No," I said firmly, "No
monkey."
"I got enough money of my
own," he said as he flashed his
• bank book under my nose.
"No matter .., definitely no
monkey."
Next he tried talking me into a
pair of rabbits.
"No rabbits," I stated,
"Why not?" he wailed. "I'll
look after them, honest."
I recalled to him the sage of our
last rabbit, a huge, beautiful
white creature who resided in our
back yard. That rabbit had to be
the smartest animal inside or out
of a pen .„ mostly it was out, for
we could contrive no means of
• keeping him in.
Just when we'd think we'd
outsmarted him we'd find he had
chewed, clawed, dug or squeezed
his way to freedom. He made the
hero of 'The Great Escape' look
like an amateur,
Finally, we gave up and
decided if he was so darned
smart lie could fend for himself.
He lolled around in the backyard
and defied the dogs by squeezing
himself under the boys' hut
whenever they harrassed him.
Like the prodigal son he often
disappeared for several days but
always returned a wiser rabbit
and ready for a few square
meals.
But finally, one evening we saw
him loping into the twilight and
we haven't had as much as a post
card from him since. That's
graditude.
"No, absolutely no rabbits."
"You're a mean, unfair
mother," he sulked, "You just
don't want me to have a pet."
"Look who's being unfair," I
countered.
We've had more pets than I
care to remember. At one time
the kids could proudly count 17
species lodged on our small
property including almost
everything between a horse to
two Java sparrows.
However, time, age and
several catastrophies eliminated
the list to our present cat and dog
(both spayed.)
Oh, the traumas we've ex-
perienced. Like when the cat ate
the white mouse; when the
hampster died of a heart attack;
when a kitten jumped into the fan
of the car (ugh), and worst of all,
I think, when the mother cat
insisted on having her litter on
the top closet shelf among
father's shoes and hats.
The funerals we conducted and
the weddings and birthings we
witnessed! Heaven help me from
going through it all again.
Still, it takes a stronger and
tougher mother than I to keep
saying No day after day and I
finally agreed to a bowl of
goldfish, or a turtle or 'something
reasonable'.
Something reasonable turned
out to a bright green, leaping
lizard.
I screeched . "You know I can't
stand lizards. What possessed
you to buy that ugly, creeping
reptile?"
"It's not a reptile. It's a
chameleon," he defended hotly,
as the thing crept up his arm and
gave me a look of pure distain,
"Chameleon ... Scrameleon
just get that creepy, nasty object
out of my house!"
"Now look what you've done,"
he accused me, "you've upset
him emotionally and he's turning
brown."
"He's what?" "'Turning brown
.„ because you yelled at him."
Sure enough, that miserable
little creature was actually going
from bright green to shades of
murky brown.
"Well, for crying out loud," I
snorted, "if he's that thin skinned
he won't last long around here."
He's •lasted over a week and he
seems to be thriving.
Actually 'he' turned out to be
'she', that is if my son is correct
in his deductions which were
somehow performed by the use of
a mirror,
The change in. sex created a
problem until the creature, who
had been dubbed 'King Arthur'
was rechristened 'Guinevere'.
His best friend decided to also
buy a chameleon, which he was
positive was a gentleman, and
soon the two lads were making
marriage plans for their young
lizards.
No doting fathers ever
arranged things more carefully,
and eventually when the
ceremonies were finalized the
newly-weds were placed in a
cookie jar honeymoon boudoir,
which was tastefully decoarated
with heavenly blue gravel,
plastic lily of the valley and an
inquisitive-looking cardboard
orange canary.
The pair were discretely left
alone.
Meanwhile the fathers sat on
the front steps and dreamed
about the grandchildren they'd
have and what their futures
would be.
Two hours later when the
friend was summoned home he
decided that the honeymoon,
indeed the whole marriage, was
off and he grabbed his wiggly
little friend from the cookie jar
and scooted off home.
Next morning before the rest of
us were up the two fathers,.
sounding more like anxious new
mothers by this time, were on the
phone seriously discussing for-
mulae consisting of live flies,
grasshoppers and sweet water.
I just hope that short marriage
was never consumated ,.. a litter
of lizards I could never take. But
then again, maybe Pat's Pet Shop
would be in the market.
The lawn of the bride's
parents was the scene of a
pretty wedding when Delores
Gingerich exchanged wedding
vows with Clifford Gingerich at a
double-ring ceremony performed
by Rev. Cyril Gingerich,
The parents of the bride are
Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Gingerich,
RR 2 Zurich, and the groom is the
son of Mr, and Mrs. Gleve
Gingerich, RR 3 Zurich.
The bride given in marriage by
her father, wore a dress of white
chiffon, trimmed with pink
ribbons, small pearls and lace. A
detachable gown, trimmed with
lace, highlighted the gown. She
carried a mauve orchid on a
white Bible sprinkled with
strawflowers.
Sandi Gingerich was her
sister's maid of honor in a gown
of mauve chiffon. She wore
mauve, white and orange pores in
her hair and carried a basket of
matching flowers.
The bridesmaids were Marlene
Gingerich, sister of the groom,
Dianne Zehr and Phyllis
Grainger. They wore dresses of
multi-colored chiffon with poms
in their hair and carried baskets
the same as the maid of honor.
The two groomsmen were Ron
Oesch and Glen Gascho, while
Ralph Gingerich and Rick
Gingerich ushered the guests.
