Threw Wooden Shoes at Bride.

In the shower of missiles hurled after the welded pair something struck the settlement worker with stinging force. "What on earth!" she exclaimed; then quickly added: "A wooden shoe! Who ever heard of throwing wooden shoe at a bride?"
 Most everybody who has attended weddings in this part 'of town has heard of it," said the officiating curate. "It is the custom here to throw wood- en shoes because at some time in her life nearly every bride has worn pair. For the present generation they were not her Sunday shoes, nor her evening dress shoes, nor even her ev. eryday street shoes, but around the house and maybe to the nearby shops in rainy weather she has clattered around often enough in wooden shoes to justify having pair thrown at her tor olc times sake."- Boston Herald.
