THURSDAY, JULY 3, 1924 The foregoing reminds us of an incident given by Mable Potter Dag- gett, a noted woman writer, in the June issue of Good Housekeeping. Scrubbed Them Through In a Pennsylvania factory town, I talked with Mrs. Parker, to whom also the luck has come. But there s a note of hardness in her voice that hides a broken heart. i'I`l'.e only way you can be sure of a man, she says, is when he can t get it. I scrubbed eight children through school while their father's money went for whiskey. The works kept back the rent from his wages, and the Society helped. Now Frank Parker hasn t been drunk for seven years, not since our town went dry locally. He s got $1,100 in the bank. She brought the bank book for me to see. He gives me half the pay envel- ope, she continued. I said l`d `take rrine where I could see it :`.n~l l have. The player piano there cost $250. There s a full coal bin in the cellar. This house I paid $4000 for. I bought it in wartime, and there were some thought the price was too high. But, you see, I've wanted a home all my life. I couldn t wait. Then the location, too, counted. But I said I d lived all my married life in back alleys. Now I d have my house right on Main Street. The Lost Located We sat talking like this in the comfortable sitting room. Suddenly, as I looked into the eyes of the wo- man before me, I knew. The voice had trailed away in an echo that rang from all the homes through which I had passed. Rn fl-a last. time: the iiicli:-re`: wife. wmcn 1 nau passeu. ``So the last time the judge's wife sent for me to wash, I told her I wasn t doing any washing now but] I nvun And it was not alone Mrs. Park- er and Mrs. Kelly and the rest who spoke. But I had found one whom all of us have missed--our Long `Lost Washerwoman. The shadow of her was outlined against the tene- ments and all the miserable little homes across the railroad tracks in all the small towns. She ashed for an instant before me witl`. her bent shoulders and her bedraggled skirts and her slouching .step. Then she was gone. Something` tells me we shall not see her again. Women don t wash for other women when they don t have to. When their hus- `bands don t drink, they don t have fn Oh, I know it s not so good for us-for you and me and the ju(l,rre s wife. But see what it is for the washerwoman s children ? lVI\J\aI"ll\ I :1 Quaint old St. Thomas church. Shanty Bay, beautifully decorated for the occasion, was the scene of a very pretty wedding" on June 28, when Miss Edith Virginia, younger (laughter of Mrs. Reedy and the late Mr. Geo. Reedy, became the bride of Dr. Cyril F. McCartney. The ceremony was conducted by Rev. Basil Thompson of Trinity Metltodist church, Toronto, and Rev. C. R. Spencer, rector of the church at Shanty Bay. The bride, who was given in marria,r_:e b_v her brother, Mr. Harry Reedy, looked very charm- ing.-; in her gown of white Oriental duchess satin, the yoke and drapery over the arms being; of pointe de venise lace, and the train, which fell from the shoulders, lined witl; palest yellow tulle, arranged with a comet of orange blossoms, and extended the full length of the train. Her boquct was a shower of sunset roses and lily of the valley. The bridesmaids, Miss Mary Score and Miss Endicott Johnston, were dressed alike in but- tercup yellow _Qcorg'ettc, made with plain full bodice and full ruffled skirts. They wore hats to match with black velvet streamers, and car- ried mauve sweet peas and sunset roses. The ,L'room was attended by Air. Gordon Hugrhes as best man, and the ushers were Mr. Victor Deverell and Mr. Robert Forsyth, all of To- ronto. The wedding music was rendered by Rev. M. Bernard John- son, assistant rector of St. George s church, Ottawa. Following` the cere- mony a reception was held at Home- leig`h, the summer home of the bride s mother, who received in a grown of black chantilly lace com- hined with black satin dc luxe, a black lace hat and corsaee boquet of mauve sweet peas. The groom's mother was gowned in grey geor- cette and wore a black lace hat. and a corsage boquet of pink roses. Later Dr. and Mrs. McCartney left for a trip down the Saguenay River, the bride travelling in a navy blue tricotine suit. pearl Qrey hat and shoes, and platinum fox fur. On their return they will reside in To- ronto. A4 I ?nn..n.u n Another Side of It McCARTNEY--REEDY n. n _.._-`_y ,1.
