CONGRATULATIONS "JACK" The Mirror extends sincere congra- tulations to Mr. John Murray, popular young Stratford Barrister, on his re- cent marriage to Miss Suzanne Clarke of London. Mr. Murray has always found time from the arduous duties of his profession, to take a keen in- terest in the civic life of the town, and is deservedly popular with the younger set. On his return to the city after his marriage, a merry party congregated at his home and shower- ed him with good wishes, as well as serenadiny the bride. The best wishes of the community are with Mr. and Mrs. Murray for their future happiness. Emerson once wrote that no man ever amounted to much who was greatly concerned about what people thought of him, or words to this ef- fect. This is true for what people say of us really does not matter at any stage of the game. It is what we think of ourselves that is the dynamic force in every life whether we think so or not. : Why You Have To Pay For It The colored parson had just con- cluded a powerful sermon on "Salva- tion am Free" and was announcing that a collection would be taken for 'the benefit of the parson and his fam- jy. Up jumped an acutely brunette brother in the back of the church. "Look a-year, pahson," he interrupt- ed, "you' ain't no sooner done tellin' us dat salvation am free dan yo' go askin' us fo' money. If salvation am free, what's de use in payin' fo' it? Da'ts what I want to know. An' I tell you' p'intedly dat I ain't goin' to gib yo' nothin' until I find out. No--" "Patience, brudder, patience," said the parson. "T'll 'Incidate: S'pose yo' was thirsty an' come to a river. Yo' could knee] right down an' drink yo' fill, couldn't you? An' it wouldn't cost yo' nothin,' would it?" "Ob cou'se not. Dat's jest what HE tinued the parson. "But s'posin' yo' was to hab dat water piped to 'o house? Yo'd have to pay, wouldn't you'?" "Yas, suh, but----" "Wal, brudder, so it is wid salva- tion. De salvation am free, but it's de havin' it piped to yo' dat yo' got to pay fo.' Pass de hat, deacon, pass de hat." Husband (planning new house)--lI think I'll build, the foundation of the house myself and save a little money. Wife--But couldn't you employ a few of those free Masons I've heard so much about?
