Gettuig married nowadays seems like a noisy, sometimes vulgar oc- currence which is foreign to the old- fashioned idea of sanctified matri- mony. In probably every town the actual marriage ceremony is followed by a fast joy ride through the town in cars which are plastered with un- seemly sigrns and dragging an as- sortment of tinware behind. The cars' boms are sounded continuously and the happy couple are ushered into the holy bonds in an atmosphere of noise, speed and wisecracks. It is reasonable to believe that the young couple who have just plighted their troth do not enjoy being made quite so conspicuous. We believe the wed- ding would be considerably more suc- cessful and enjoyable to both the most interested parties and the i^uests if it were conducted along slightly more dignified lines as would befit its high place in the social structure. â€" Lindsay Post. A teacher giving a lesson on beans asked the children to compose sent- ences containing the word "beans." The usual bright boy produced ''My father grows beans" â€" and the usual bright girl was ready with "My moth- er cooks beans". Then a little one made this effort "We are all human beans".
