Ladd -Cow
-Under an .arch of evergreen and
summer flowers a pretty wedding took
place on the lawn of Mr. and Mrs.

Gladys Priscilla, was united in mar-
riage to Mr. John Clayton Ladd, only
son of Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Ladd of
Auburn. Rev, A. G. Hewitt of Knox
United Church officiated.
Given in marriage by her father,
the bride looked lovely in a gown of
white satin styled on princess lines
with a bertha collar and net yoke, long
sleeves ending in lily-points over the
!lands, tiny buttons down the back, and
a short train, Her finger-tip veil was
held in place with a white floral head-
dress, She wore a string of pearls, a
gift of her mother, and carried a bou-
quet of Briarcliff roses. Miss Donna.
Gow, sister of the bride, was maid of
honour, gowned in rose taffeta fash-
ioned similarly to the bridal gown. Her
floral headdress, held a shoulder veil,
and she carried a ba\3ket of gladioli,

blue taffeta frock trimmed with rain-
bow ribbon and matching headdress,

OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
It's a pity that some poet hasn't
seen fit to commemmorate the matter
of pickles in a fitting way. Certainly,
the whole procedure of picking the
cucumbers and assembling the spices
and the tangy vinegar and the myster-
ious ritual afterwards has in itself a
great deal of inspiration for anyone
with an inclination towards that sort
of thing.
Pickling time is a time all it's own
on the farm. Anxiously, the women
folks hover over the cucumber patch,
carrying pails of water from a barrel
left standing in the sun all day, to
Prince's Cale — photo tourten
make certain that 'the heat of the day s
hasn't wilted the vines. This is a job
for early evening between the supper
hour and the washing of the dishes,
and immediately after the picking of
the cucumbers.
Women seem to hover over the
tomato plants and the cucumber vines
these days. A man is liable to find
himself somewhat confused over thi.
cryptic messages relayed at the din-
ner and supper table. "That old lien 1
is back picking the tomatoes again."
I got a six quart basket of gherkins
off the vines today and an eleven quart
of fair to middling- ones and. there I
must be almost a bushel of the relish I
ones,"
it also appears that no matter how
many tittles the vines are visited, the I
elusive cucumber hiding in the green
and dint depths of the leafy vines is
often able to escape the clutching
Lauds. \\latching the women picking•
cucumbers you'll hear one say as she
brings up a monster encumber that
has started to yellow after reaching
maturity, "T thought I picked every
blessed cucumber on these vines last
night."
The tomatoes are whisked off their
'bushes and placed in various places to
ripen. A favorite spot is the old rail-
road tie with the crossarms on it that
we employ as a corner post in the
garden. The tomatoes also find them-
selves placed on the sunny side of the
milk house, along the ridge of the
pantry windows where the halves join
and even on the slanting roof of the
most necessary small building on the
farm.
The smell of vinegar and spices Is
one that makes your nostrils quiver as
you come up the laneway from the
barn, There's a great kettle of chili
sauce, bubbling on the stove with a
hag of spices kept on the stir to give
piquancy to the. great chunks of red,
rosy tomatoes and the. slices of gleam-
ing, white onion,
It's easy for a man to lean back .and
think of the snow swirling around the
eaves on .a winter's night and the
delightful prospect of ladling out the
pickled :mixture that brings summer
mud sunshine into the dullness of the
frosty season.
