the use of AMI and Lucreshia
wastin catch others lifes by pes
term catch other in this fashion yr
after VI when they mite of been
married long ago and enjoying
welded bliss? Praps the reason
they amt been spliced before now
is becuz AMI amt got the spunk
to pop the questshion to Lucreshia
and shes too shy and bashful to
corner AMI and make him speek
rite out and tell her whether ne Is
a going to lead her to the alter or
not. Be that as it NAV we hope
that AMI and Lucreshia and duz-
zens of other similar cases in Bing-

MATTRYMONIUL EDDY
TORIUL

Being as we cant think not1link
else emmy better praps it would be
jest as we'll to take time by the
fourlock Gas we mite say, and
dash off a breef eddytoriul on the
importants of looking forrerd to
the possibilities of next June
(which is only a munth apperox-
inately) as a matryrnoniul munth.
Being as we are now agoing to
let ourself loose eddytoriully on
the subjeck of "Marriage-Its
Perills & Advantages" we ort to
state at the outset that this eddy
toriul is wrote for & dedikated to
the yung folks (of both sexes) of
Bingville & vicinity.
Whot we wish partickler to say
rite here is that June is ca1d the
Munth of Brides. In other wurds
it is the theery that more yung
folks takes each luther for better or
worse during the munth of June
than during any other munth in
the VI.
There is a CRATE menny yung
Fcuppels who has been keeping COM
pany with catch other and who
loves catch other deerly who is SC
sooperstishious that they wouldn't
think of getting married during
emmy other munth but June. Then
there is others who don't seem tc
care a whoop when they git mar
ried or care for that matter
whether they will ever live together
happy ever afterward or fife like
cats and dogs. Here, however is
the pint of this eddytoriul and we
want every yung person of this
neck of woods to pay strick atten-
shion:
Sinst June is the munth of bride:
and. sinst there is sposed to be
more boys and girls git married of
to one another during the aforesaid
munth than during emmy munth Of

idee for the yung peepul in thi:
