A surprise gathering took place at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. 17. Brine-
Hell, of Usborne boundary, when
their neighbors and friends gathered
to spend a social evening together on
the return of their son, Clifford, front
overseas.The ladies were well pro-
vided with baskets, and a ;nod tepee
was spent in all kinds of amuse-
ments.
THE AD AND THE MAN
He saw an ad from day to day
And Muttered "I defy it." -
Their stuff may be just what they say
But I'nn not going to buy it."
As time wore an he made remarks
it would not do to mention,
For he was mad because that ad.
Was forced an his attention.
But in a week, or two or three,
He said "There's no denying
The way that ad gets hold of me --
The stuff may be worth trying."
For just about a fortnight more
He dared mere words to win him,
And then the ad completely had
Aroused the splendid in him.
Next day he drifted in a store
And quietly expended
A few big iron dollars for
The stuff the ad commended.
He found it filled a long felt -need;
It's excellence surprised him.
And now he's glad because the ad
So deftly hypnotized him.
