HONORED BY FRIENDS
A reception was held nn Thursday
evening lust in honor of Mr. (3111
hits, Earle Popple, of Tuckersmith
who were recently married, at tit
Bayfield Pavilion when ever 30 3
guests were present. The evening
was pleasantly spent in dnncieg. An
interesting feature of the evening was
the presentation of a china cabinet
to the young couple by George Mc-
Cartney and Wilson McCartney while
Edwin Chesney read the address.
Music was furnished by the Murdoch
orchestra and lunch was served by
the ladies.
The address was as follows:
"To Mr, and Mrs. Earle Popple on
the occasion of their recent marriage;
Now Earle was thinking deeply
Not many months ago,
I'm tired of single blessedness,
It's int good for me, 1 know.
I'll not be a stern old bachelor,
From matrimony free,
I'll hunt me up a maiden,
Who'll be suited just to ole.
With this in mind he shook his fist
And firmly did declare,
111 do it now or never,
8o, maidens, all beware!
He dressed up in bis best attire,
Like crusader of old,
Ant! started bravely on his quest,
No lover was more bold.
He polished tap his bridle
And saddled up his steed,
Ile rtished out to the highway,
No limit to his speed.
And on to Olive's house,
To pop the question clear,
Will you be mine, my darling,
And marry me, my dear?
Now Olive, quite excited
13y this time, you may guess,
Looked up at her Prince Charming,
And shyly whispered "yes."
Iinrrah, said Earle. dismounting,
I knew I couldn't miss,
1,0 . take no chance of forfeit,
I'll seal it with a kiss.
They hurried to the minister,
To him their bliss they told,
And very kindly asked him
Their happy lives to mould.
"I do," said Earle, contented.
"I will," said the blushing bride,
And hand in hand they started,
To face whate'er betide.
Tonight we all salute them. ,
Boys, bring the gift to sight,
And many years of happiness,
We wish you both tonight. •
