TO SAVE TROUBLa.
A Xor4hera Ontarjo editor tells of
an
WA iridian that cavae into his (like
o eubscril,e for ',the pauer.
The ,editor took the money. Then
the Indust wanted a receipt, The ed -
roar tried to talk hitt out of it \1r.
Indian 'heisted on getting a receipt.
Niter making it out the editor asked
hart wily he was so persistent _i want-
ing a receipt,.
The Indian said; " :MMC die some ciao
:arid ytr ,o big gate. Sault Peter asks
if I been good Indian? 1 say, les.

TIMES :ItL BETTER.
Time; are better, but we are not
through the woods yet. Times will be
better set if UV keep the sober les-
sons learned 'n the months of depres-
sion. A generation as like a, young
man, he dissipates -until, he gets hie
bumps, buta he ?earns his iesson rt
will make a man of him. One hopeful
sign : not only have the workers gone
back to such large numbers to the" job,
but alien who did riot work during the
r' o. crit y' ,hate also gone back to
job. Prosperity always raises a
small rtemy ot speculators who keev
themselves above the ,necev'''y of toil
by inducing honest workin a eonle to
invest fut things that never produce a
return. Society's burden in carrying
that Crowd has largely been relieved;
they are now producing what they use.
CORRESPONDENTS ATTENTION.
Correspoaiderts will please get the
budgets of news to The Advocate of-
fice
ffice not later than Tuesday, and we
hope always on Tuesday morning, It
is necessary so that the half holiday
be observed on Wednesday for the
summer months.

A bright event took, place on June

their second daughter, Rachel Lou-
ells (Maya was united in marriage

ter, of Danforth Avenue, Toronto.
The bride, becomingly gowned in

mings, veil and orange blossoms,
and carrying a shower bouquet of
Opbella roses and lily of the valley,
entered the parlor leaning on the
arm of her father to the strains of
Lohengrin's Bridal Chorus, played
by lfiss Elsie Cloughler, a cousin of
the bride. The bride was attended
by her youngest sister, Alice, who
wore masse satin with corsage bon-
quet of Hoosier roses. The bride-
groom was atetuded by Mr. C. W.
Cline, a pal, of Victoria College, To-
ronto. The bridegroom's gift to the
bride was a silk hand -bag; to the
bridesmaid, a pearl -set gold brooch;
to the pianist, a sapphire ring and
to the groomsman, a pearl -set tie-
pin. During the signing of the regi-
ster, Mr. B. Allen, of Allendale,
sang "Perfect Day." After a dinner
and appropriate toasts, the happy
pair left amid showers of good
wishes to spend a few days at Georg-
ian Bay, after which they will visit
friends in Exeter and Clinton, Ont.
On their return they will proceed
after a short time, to Saskatchewan,
where Mr. May will take up his
ministerial work.
