At least that's what these nine ladies think who were quilting in St. Peter's Lutheran Church Sunday school rooms this week. The happy group finds that stitches are sewn just a little easier when there is an opportunity to visit with one another. From left to right, the artists are, Mrs. Laura Haberer, Miss Ethel Hess, Mrs. Alice Thiel, Miss Inez Yungblut, Mrs. Earl Yungblut Mrs. Emma Schilbe, Mrs. Ferd Haberer, Mrs. Loretto Weido and Mrs. J. W. Haberer.

For receiving the bride's mother wore a beige brocade dress with accessories in black, and yellow •corsage. The groom's mother assisted wear- ing pale blue metallic, black accessories, and corsage of red carnations. For a wedding trip to North- ern Ontario the bride travelled in a pink ensemble with which she wore a white orchid cor- sage. The young couple will reside in Hensall. Guests were present from Hensall, Zurich, Grand Bend Exeter and London. Prior to her marriage the bride was feted at several show- ers including a miscellaneous shower held in the Legion Hall, Hensall, attended by over 75 guests, the bride -elect receiving many lovely gifts. 0 CLARKE—BOA Eliza Margaret Boa, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Boa, RR 1, Hensall, became the bride of Kenneth John William Clarke, son of Mr. John Clarke and the late Mrs. Clarke, Thed- ford, in a lovely wedding cere- mony in Hensall United Church, Saturday, February 18, at 3 p.m. Rev. Harold F. Currie performed the ceremony in a candlelit service, with ferns and cande- labra. Given in marriage by her father, the bride's costume of chantilly lace and French crepe was used in styling the elegant- ly simple sheath formal wed- ding gown featuring a batteau neckline, lily -point sleeves and empire waist in chantilly lace while the sheath skirt was 'of crepe. Back interest was cen- tred on a cathedral length train of chantilly lace.

Recently Mrs, Sarah Geoffroi of St. Joseph and Mrs. Fred Ducharme of this highway paid a very enjoyable afternoon's visit to Mrs. Edward Bedard of the Drysdale surroundings.

You Are Weleome is a good passtime and as well each has something to say which the others do not know. All of that makes it interesting. At time of writing we are in the last quarter of the month of February. It is the second month of the year and has been considered a bully one in the years gone by, being a bully one for cold. So far this year we cannot say that it dumped out bitter cold as it did in previous years of course there are still a few days left which we could expect to be cold days. Since the earth has a revolving movement daily and a rotating one annually we can come to no other conclusions that February is the month when the earth is travelling to the farthest peak of cold and where no human being could exist. Perhaps all this may seem phoney to the average person and perhaps it is, so here we are trying to determine all of what the month has had in store for us such as its weather predictions. By the old and the young of today it has been for scores of years known as the month of lamb, the most meek and mild of all animals. How can there be a comparison between the past blustry month of February with all of its destructive storms throughout the land. How can we compare the passing month of February which had no mercy of what was in its pathway, to that of what is known as the month of lamb, the most innocent animal created. The name lamb is often men- tioned in the holy scripture to fulfil spiritual promises given to mankind, therefore it is hard to bring about a decision in comparing the blustery Feb- ruary and the February of the lamb. 0 hituary CLARE W.
