The shower was arranged by
Mrs, Jas. Keys and Dorothy,
'Mrs, Les Pryee, and Catherine
Campbell.
The following is the address:
Dear Betty,—This is the day,
and this is the hour All your
friends here, have picked for
your shower. Now just sit still,
and don't get excited. A little
advice will keep you arighted.
First make up your mind to be a
good wife,
And love your husband the rest
of your life.
A newly married couple very
happy can be,
,But to make it complete there
I should be at least three.
Married life can Well be corn-
! pared to a brook,
With many a rock and many a
I crook;
But all these 'things you must
take in their stride,
Life never lias been just a
I smooth happy ride.
Now Betty you have a little
searching to do,
The rest of us will sit back and
look at you.
1Will you take off your slippers
• and toss up your head,
Now tip -toe upstairs and look
under the bed.
After you rest for a minute or
two,
Please hunt for a parcel, that
stands in full view,
Now go to the pantry and look
on the floor,
There is something there that
wasn't there before.
Go to the front room and look
under the curtain.
If you can't find it you need
glasses for certain.
The phone in this house is kept
on the wall,
I'd take a look there you might
find something small.
A 'chesterfield is always a good
place to neck,
It has other uses so look there
by heck.
Go to the bath lovely lady but
not for a tub,
But for something you'll use
when you're cooking for hub.
And now I must tell you the
muse has expired,.
And anyway Betty I know you
are tired.
The rest of the gifts we will
bring to your side,
And each bears the message,
Good Luck to the Bride.
Sign.ed on behalf of your
friends and neighbours on the
4, 5, 6 and ith concessions of
McKillop.

"Dad, did you pick up my dress?"
That young voice hits Dad where it hurts'.
He was so sure he'd remembered every-
thing. And here is Amelia, with a heavy
date, demanding her dress which he forgot
to pick up at the cleaners. Why, grumbles
Dad, don't women do their own shopping?
The answer is that farm women usually
do. In fact, their shopping, in person and
by mail, adds up to a lot of money. How
much? Well, last year, farm families put,
about 2% billion dollars into circulation.
That's over twice the amount spent for all
the new housing in Canada. About 1,000
million dollars went for household require-
ments—the things you buy regularly. And
the rest of the money was spent for equip-
ment, wages, feed, seed, fertilizers—every-
thing that farmers need to produce food
in abundance.
All this farm spending for consumer .
goods and services helps to keep a great •
many Canadians employed in a wide variety
of businesses and is a powerful stimulant
to progress and prosperity. This is made
possible by good farm management, effi-
cient practices which include the use of
modern farm machinery.
