That same year Lorne and Jean also. said in a boat on the sea of matri- mony, now please take note. Bert MacKay was first mate; "What I mean is," explained the insurance salesman to the bewildered rural prospect, "how would your wife, carry on if you should die?" "Well," answered the farmer reasonably, "I. don't reckon that's any concern of mine— as long as, she behaves while I'm alive." the second mate was Mirn, and believe me, everything was done to a turn. To Toronto, Lorne and Jean went to take in the fair, and there just couldn't .have been a happier pair. They stayed in Toronto with friends Marcia Sproat, and from her home they commenc- ed to float aboutall the won- derful sights to be seen, for in that day these two were quite 'green'. "This seeing the sights call- ed for taking long walks, and Lorne sure wished he could go in his socks; but practical Jean in her old shoes her feet seem- ed to suit, but pride pinches you know, and so did Lorne's boots. Now this battle has last- ed for fifty long years, in that time there has been both laugh- ter arid tears; for they, have been blessed with six girls and three boys, and their home through the years has been a comfort and joy. "We want you to know we think you're the best, we hope with many more years of mar- riage you're blest. A gift to The national economy for efficient operation needs both productipn and distribution.
