20 and "a Ideal Marriage Ages

the postponement of marriage until
the woman is 21 and the man "a
would be an extremely important pre-
ventive measure looking toward elm
ination of domestic disaster.
On the other hand, there are ex-
ceptions to all rules, and long en-
gagements are apt to porve more dis
astrous for both the man and the
woman than early marriage. A cou-
pie engaged over period of years,
seeing each other continually are sure
to get on each others nerves, and the
bloom of romance is bound to wear
off, because Romance, being an airy,
fairy thing made Of cobwebs, will not
endure being knocked about.
Also, an engaged couple stand to
each other in a position which is pc
culiarly full of jealousies and which
must cause many understandings and
pickering, and as result love and
romance just naturally peter out.
Furthermore it is human nature to get
, tired of waiting for any event too
long, and to lose enthusiasm when 1t
drags over long period of time. AS
result, when the engaged couple
finally do marry, it is often just be-
cause they have become a habit to
each other and because everybody
expects it of them, rathe rthan be-
cause they want it for themselves.
Contrary to most theories, matri-
mony promotes love just as surely as
long engagement kills it, because
husband and wife go into marriage
with their love unwasted through
years of waiting: and because mar
riage draws couple close together
You are both young, but if you are
serious minded rather than frivolous;
if you have a full understanding OF
the duties and obligations Of mar
riages; of the sacrifices it entails; if
YOU are financially able to carry on,
| see no greater risk in an immediate
marriage than is taken in marriage at
any age.

How Much To Pay
For A Home

In the pamphlet, How to Own Youl

have been included which the head OF
the family may ask himself before
buying home.

for rent each year!
5. How much of the income is be-
ing saved?
G How much could the family af-
ford to pay out each year in paying
for q house and for the expenses that
go with it?
DR.. Cries and Mr.. Taylor state
"The amount that can be paid for a
house depends partly on what inter-
est rates are charged for money bor-
rowed to make the purchase and the
rate at which the principal is to be
paid off. These fixed payments must
be met regularly, and they must be
met from the family income. 1t is,
therefore, always best to leave some
margin of safety for illness or other
"Tf certain family pays a sixth OF
it's income for rent, it may be able to
devote one-fourth or more to buying

amount thus used may include both
rent and savings. Rent, or payments
On home, may require anywhere
from one-eighth to one-third OF the

IN addition to interest payments and

ewals and repairs, taxes, special as
insurance, water tax, and

Two Sides-Both Need Attention

Those who do become shallow and

"And he whose sould is flat

The thing we need most is time
time to discover ourselves; time to

time to pu Yourselves in other PERSONS
shoes before we make our condemna-
ton; time to romp with the fairies of

Time is what we need most of all.
And more than any of these we
need to visit our own souls, our City
of Refuge in times of trouble.

HUDSON'S BAY CONQUEST
WON BY GRAHAM TRUCKS

The Hudson's Bay Company, oldest
incorporated commercial organization
in the Western, Hemisphere, is now
operating a fleet of more than 100
Graham Brothers trucks and CONNER
cial cars.
This fact is especially significant
to all users of trucks" says T. M.
Walden, of the T. M. Walden Auto
Company, local Dodge Brothers deal
er, "when it is realized that transpor-
tation has been the greatest single
problem of the famous Canadian
company since its incorporation 256
years ago.
"The history of the Hudson's Bay
Company is a romantic story of con-
quest, Indian wars, trade ware and
adventurous pioneering, but most OF
all conquest of distance. Vast will
derness spaces, and snow-covered
mountain passes had to be conquered
before the first trading in furs could
be established. The constant speed
ing up of business as the company's
outposts developed into great depart
ment stores kept the transportation
problem continually to the fore.
"Motor trucks operated by the Hud-
sons Bay company do their work in
summer with temperatures as high as
100 degrees and in winter with tenn
peratures as low as so degrees below
zero. Deep SHOWS and unimproved
roads in some sections are further
gruelling tests Of stamina.
"That Graham Brothers trucks
have superior ability to meet these
conditions is shown by the continuous
repeat orders from the company in
different centers. Some of These
trucks were purchased five years age
land are still giving dependable ser
vice.
Fitzgerald leader enterprise and press., 1927-03-10

"The Hudson's Bay Company's ex-
perience with transportation since
King Charles End of England grant
ed in 1870 a Royal Charter to The
Governor and Company of Adventur-
ers of England Trading into Hud-
sons Bay has covered practically
every mode of conveyance.
"Men's backs were the first means
of transportation used, while canoes
eased the burden where watercourses
were available. Husky dog teams
were the next development, pulling
sledges snow bound expanses during
the winter time. In fact dog sledges
are still used in the frozen north.
"The Red River Cart, compara-
lively small two-wheeled wagon
drawn by horse or bullock was anoth-
er step in the development.
"When motor driven transportation
became available, the Hudson's Bay
Company was Immediately interested
and studied all trucks on the market
with great care before making seiec-
ton.
"Since each Hudson's Bay Com
pany store in different cities and
towns has had virtually free reign IN
selecting equipment without sanction
of the parent organization, it is es-
pecially significant that the largest
stores have selected Graham Brothers
and Dodge Brothers units. These IN
clude the store in Winnipeg, Manito-
ba; Vancouver, B. c., Lethbrldge' Al
berta; Edmondton, Alberta and Cal
gary.
aside from the known satisfactory
performance of the trucks themselves
under unusually severe operating con-
ditions not only in Canada but in all
parts of the world, one Of the strong
est factors influencing the selection
of Graham Brothers fleets by the
Hudson's Bay Company is the high
character of the service supplied Dy

RAISING HOGS BY TON

PRIZES WILL AGAIN BE GIVEN
ALL FARMERS AND FARM
BOYS CAN ENTER

Athens, Ga,-There has been a
great deal of interest in feeding ton
litters for the past three years. In
1925 twenty-three Georgia farmers
proved without doubt that it could
be done, while the ultra-conservative
exponent of "cheap production" was
feeding 'em along slow" and "mak-
ing maximum use of pasture" these
farmers fed 232 pigs all they could
eat, properly balanced. They charg-
ed all of the feeds at market prices
and left it up to the pigs to pay for
them and at the end of 18O days 1t
was found that the little averaged
2378 pounds each; had cost the own
ers s143.39 or 5000 per hundred
pounds gain. They sold these litters
for s275.18 each, leaving a profit OF
s131.79, or 81 per cent in 1870 days.
The litter in 1926 contest averaged
1O. .O8 pigs per sow. The question nat
urally arises: "Can the average Geor-
gia farmer who produces only an
average litter learn lesson from this
method of feeding?" 1t is true that
most farmers cannot, or will not pro-
duce a ton or more of pork in six
months time from one sow. The ton
litter method of feeding and care ap-
plies as we'll to one pig as it does to

The ideal age for marriage is top
ic of wide and unending interest, and
now it has been submitted to scientific
research. Data collected from the
Domestic Relations Court and the
marriage license bureau Of Philadel-
phia by Hornell Hart and Wilbur
Shields offer some interesting conclu-
sions.
In their treatise they have fixed
the ideal age for marriage at about
20 years for the groom and "a years
for the bride. They say, however,
that deviations of four years on either
side of the ideal age for the groom,
or of two years on either side for the
bride, make no noticeable difference,
but that marriages in which the bride
is under 81 or the groom under "a
become rapidly more dangerous as
younger ages are considered, and that
marriage in which either party is 19
or younger from ten to one hundred
times as risky as marriages at the
ideal age.
These conclusions were based on
the fact that premature or delayed
marriage is symptom or permanent
character traits which are unfavorable
to success in family life, and second,
that the boy or girl under 81 has not
had sufficiently broad experience or
has not reached sufficient maturity
to select mate with whom success
full home can be established.
