 As the bride and her father ap- preached the altar John Coolidge stepped out of the Nestry and met them at the end of he middle aisle. Here the governor went through the formaIity Of giving his daughter in marriage, and returned 10 his place of sitting with Mrs, TrumbulI. Meanwhile the ushcrs and brides maids took thcIr places and John and Florence stepped before the Cl-r-yu,n. as Professor William C. Hammond ot Mount Holyoke college played the last strains of the we'd ding march,

 While the service had been in progress, outside the spectators formed themselves into small groups discussing the wedding, the beauti- full appearance of the bride. the generally detected nervousness of the bridegroom and countless other matters. In the surprisingly short period of seven minutes. the cere- mony was completed, the doors were opened and the couple appeared in the doorway. All conversation ceased as another rush 70 the end of the canopy started Men and women crowded and f0Gtlr1 ora amt bar and nechs were crancd.

PROHIBITION NOT NECESSARY.

Decrease in the use of liquors in France and Italy and, in lesser degree, England shows that Prohibition is not necessary in waging successful against liquor with its devastating effects In those countries opposition to strong drink finds its best weapons in education and persuasion. People are being taught that abstinence makes strong and competent and while ardent spirits destroy the mentality and physical force. Abstinence gives people opportunity to improve their material

WHEAT ROLLS INTO RUPERT.

Grain is rolling into Prince Rupert from the Prairie Provinces For the next seven or eight months it will continue, and a stream of ocean steamships will be carrying it from that town to the markets of the world This is all good business for Prince Rupert, and her Alaska neighbors are glad.
 However, the handling of freight is not of the relative importance as community builder that it was once upon time. The scientific devices for transporting wheat over rail and loading it in large steamships do not employ as many people in comparison to the tonnage required in the old days when Baltimore Clippers were the freight and passenger carriers par excellence or even in those later days when doublebrigs from the Clyde coured the winds for favors in transporting wheat across the seas.

PEGGY'S CAMEL RIDE By Mary Graham Bonner

50 you would like to ride in s circus parade, eh?" the little black clock said
 Well, I think we'd better turn the time back a few days so you could go through the streets of an- other town. That would be more of an adventure"
 "Then I may ride in the parade?" Peggy asked
 Certainly" agreed the little black clock.
 DO you suppose I could do some thing, too?" asked John.
 Want to lead one of the ponies?" the little black clock asked.
 That would be fine" John said.
 So the little black clock turned the time back several days, and now they were at some other cir GUS grounds, but with the same cir GUS people.
 The most beautiful of all the cir GUS ladies gave Peggy a lovely dress to wear. It was of a bright yell low and simply covered with flash ing spangles. On her head she wore most lovely crown of golden material.
 John did not have to be dressed up, as walking beside a pony was not a dressed-up job.
 But John liked that all the better. He was not fond of dressing up
 Now they were starting.
 Through the most important streets of the town went the cir GUS parade. Peggy, sitting on a camel, bowed to people along the streets.
 John led the dearest little pony right behind the drum major. He felt very important.
 And for the parade at the begin ming of the circus that afternoon Peggy again rode the camel, and John again led the pony. The camel had the queerest way of walking But Peggy loved it.
 Sometimes she kissed her hands to the people in the audience as she went by them.
 The circus people told her she couldn't have been any better if she had ridden in parades all her life.
 That was the biggest compliment she had ever received.

Our Centenarians and English.
(New York Times.)

The United States census of 1920 listed 4267 persons 100 years of age and over. Many of those so set down were Indians and negroes who had no birth certificates any convincing proof that they had turned hundred. In 1870 the number of cen tenarians stated to be 3522 Proporotionatey there were fewer in 1920, which seems curious
 There is a Centenarian Club in London, and it to list people in the British Isles who are 100 years and over. Recently, Dr. Maurice Ernest. the secretary, advertised in The London Times for information about living centenarians He received letters from twenty persons most of them living in country districts, who claimed to be over 100 years old. With figures already in his possession. Dr. Ernest estimated that there 200 centenarans in the British Isles including North and South Ire land In 1880 Sir George Humphrey, President of the British Medical Association, found only fiftv- two by sending out questonnaire to thousands of doctors"

WHY NOT AIR MAP THE WORLD?

The announcement that Col Lndbergh was ln- specting from the air the evidences of ancient Gen. tral American and Mexican civilization suggests the question: Why would it not be well to map from the air the wilderness sections of the world? Good air maps, such those the Naval aerial photographers have made in this Territory, of the inaccessible regions of Central America Mexico, South America Africa, Asia and other parts of the world would afford the scientists opportunity for lot of work They would no doubt contribute immensely to knowledge of the world it is and as it has been.
 This is no idle suggestion. If the United States would set out and map the world, the result would be a lot more trained aviators, lot more exper- fence in plane and motor construction, and a mine for the scientific researchers. The cost would be spread period of years and would be by no means prohibtve Why not do it?
