Now it has never fallen to the lot OF the
bald.headed editor of the TRANscRIPT in
one issue to have the pleasing task OF
speaking his best wishes to SO many
young couples just venturing their first
voyage upon the uncertain sea of matri-
mony and lest he run out of sugary words
and ''best wishes he win have to lump
the Job and wish 'em ala long, jolly,
sunny voyage with never a shipwreck
among them, although of course. there
will probably be number ofittle squalls.
