Hatless Groom Was
Beautiful in Suit
Of Black Wool
We've never been able to gel
enthusiastic about the descrip-
tions of what the bride, brides-
maids, etc., wore, as in Wed-
ding write-ups. however, since
our better -half attends to this
department, we are spared the
agony of it while the feminine
angle is given due attention,
We would hate to think of
how long the usual newspaper
wedding account would be if
the same details were given to
what the groom and what rhe
groomsman and ushers wore as
are given to what the bride,
etc. wore.
If you think this couldn't be
done, then we invite you to
look over the following write-
up which appeared in a Ken-
tucky newspaper:
"Joe was beautiful in a black
suit of wool with matching la-
pel pressed down sharply again-
st the chest. Peering out of the
left breast pocket were four tips
of a cleverly folded white linen
handkerchief while on the left
lapel quaintly held by placing
the stem through an unused
buttonhole and securing it with
a small silver hat pin, was a
white carnation.
"He wore a shirt of white

minutes of the last meeting be-

Black gave the subject matter
and explained the making of
curds. Nancy VanCamp pur-
chased a variety of cheese for
the girls to look for weight
and price. The meeting clos-
ed with lunch of crackers and
sampling the different kinds of
cheese.
The fourth meeting was
held at the home of Donna
Grasby. The minutes were
read by Linda Rinn. Roll call
was answered by "Various pric-
es on cheese”. Mrs. Black dis-
cussed the subject matter on
custards while Donna Grasby
demonstrated making baked
custard. Lila Black discussed
meal planning.
DAIRY MAIDENS
BELGRAVE—The fifth meet-
ing of the Dairy Maidens was
held at the home of Mrs. Clark
Johnston. Marjorie Hopper,
president opened with 4-H
pledge and motto. WendyI'ear
gave the minutes of the last
meeting. Roll call was answer-
ed by nine members with "One
point to remember when cook-
ing a custard"

the subject matter on cooking
with milk. Demonstration of
making white sauce was given
by Doreen Pattison and Linda

devict of gold plated brass.
The cuffs of his shirt sleeves
were closed with links of the
same plated metal.
"On his left wrist he wore a
mercury battery -powered watch,
a Christmas gift from his father,
that was held in place with a
metal band. His trousers, of
simple pleated design, match-
ed the coat and were supported
by a belt of black goatskin.
His shoes, of black horsehide,
covered socks of dark material
and were fastened with a bow.
"He wore no hat and had his
hair combed back and then
forward from the forehead in a
slight wave with no visible
means of holding it in position.

ary white." -- The Goderich
