tractive appearance, the reception

gether, made a spacious enter-
taining suit. All were profusely
decorated with ferns, cut flowers,
potted plants, flags and various
other patriotic emblems. Little

"Better late than never' was ad-
mirably proven. A delayed gift
to the bride and groom was de
livered by Mrs P. W. Price who
read the donors' presentation >s
follows:
As a token of my esteem,
and good wishi-s on this event-
ful occasion, I thought of a
"Bond" emblematic of the
"Bond of Union."
I first thought of a " Liber-
ty Bond", but under circum-
stances of this kind, the word
"liberty" seems so inappro-
pristc—
So 1 decided on "Baby
Bonds". Then, as to the num-
ber of th"m. when T thought
of Roosevelt 'k idea of an ideal
family. T decided to make it
