Fortieth Wedding Anniversary Enter
tainment.

A pleasant event occurred Thursday
afternoon when Mrs. w. T. Wiggin.
upon the fortieth anniversary of her
wedding day, entertained in her home
the Canadian circle, besides neighbours
and friends. in all about thirty guests.
The hostess greeted her friends in
costume of Eye olden time," wearing
a gown her mother wore nearly sixty
years ago. Words of admiration were
expressed over the beautiful needle
work and embroidery shown as the
handiwork of her younger days. OF
her own family were present. besides
the bridegroom, forty years older,
her daughter. Mrs. Anna Wilson, and
little granddaughter. Marion Wilson.
In behalf of the Circle, Mrs. Skinner
presented a beautiful hand-painted
cake set carnations had earlier been
presented, also handsome bonbon
dish and a piece of china. A poem
composed for the occasion by Mrs.
Daniel Skinner, was read to the enjoy
ment of all. A bountiful repast was
served, after which the guests de-
parted leaving wishes for many hap
by re turns of the day.
The poem read, was as follows:
Good Queen Victoria sore was tried
When Yankee William won his bride
From out her loved Canadian girls,
To her more precious than her pearls.
And in his own Green Mountain state
He might have found fitting mate;
But having CHANGED her once to see
His heart as lost to Jennie &.
And she was fair md trim and neat
From well-poised head to dainty feet
And he was bold and straight and tall,
'Mong Barton's SWANS he lowered
Ger all.
Joyful he traversed many miles
! And practiced many artful wlles
And promised, as all lovers do,
That he would evermore be true.
But Jennie was a comedy maid
And other ardent suitors had;
But the Yankee swain was hard to
beat
And forced all rivals to retreat.

G. L. SHAEFFER, Local Editor

Just forty years ago to day
The conquering hero bore away
From home and loved ones, true and
tried,
The willing maid, his cherished bride.
Your Canadian sisters now have come
To greet you in your pleasant home,
Glad to know the years through.
lou each to each have proven true.
Forty years of sun and rain,
Forty years of JOY and pain.
Hand in hand you've walked through
A faithful husband. loving wife.
Full share of toll has been your lot,
Full share of grief the years have
brought,
But through all scenes, or sad or CAV.
Your trust in God has been your STAY.
Mid rural scenes your home you
reared,
And countless friends your bounty
shared.
Earth's fruits you ever wisely stored,
Nor turned one needy from your
board.
Good fruit and pleasant we can see
Has ripened on your family tree.
And cbildren's children have com e
down,
Your later days to cheer and crown.
Thus God has blessed you through the
years,
Has shared your pleasures and your
tears,
And His sure promise is to you
That He will guide you safely through.
, And so we leave you both with Him
dim,
And trust He'll keep you all the way,
Fen to your golden wedding day.
