Rev. O. P. Wood officiated at the ceremony. During the cere- mony and signingof the regis- ter, Mrs. William Campbell pre- sided at the organ, while Eileen and Maureen Campbell sang ap- propriate hymns.

The altar was attractively de- corated with seasonal flowers and the guest pews were mark- ed with bows of white ribbon and miniature wedding bells.

Given in marriage by her fa- ther, the bride was in a full length gown of white chiffon oyer taffeta with chapel train, lace appliques and lily point sleeves. A matching wedding Ting headdress held her four tiered veil of illusion, which was elbow length, and her only jewellery was a pearl drop and earrings, a gift of the groom. She carried a bouquet of red roses.

Attending the bride were Pa- ula Corrigan, sister of the bride and Phyllis McQuaid, cousin of the groom. They were identical- ly dressed in floor length gowns of red velvet with matching head dresses and carried nose- gays of redand white carnations

Following the ceremony a re- ception was held at the Royal Canadian Legion, Charlotte- town for 115 guests. The bride’s table was centered with a three tiered wedding cake topped with a miniature bride and groom. The toast to the bride was pro- posed by Rev..Wood and respon- ded to by the groom.

Outrageous Doctor's Bill

Keeps Family

DEAR MARY HAWORTH: My annual income is $4,500, which just won't stretch to co- | ver my family’s maintenance | needs, plus medical bills. !

Having read much about -hy- | perinsulinism, and having had a depressing health problem for years, I decided to invest in a. medically © supervised . glucose tolerance test to see if ‘low blood sugar” was involved.

. To make a long story short, I

er, and one hospital to another, for months. before I fund a spe-

T had to. wait another three weeks for a check-up. But stall never forget the first en- counter. His clinic was a mar- vel of modern equipment, cost- ing a fprtune, no doubt.

Waiting my turn, I studied a

dow which said: ‘‘You are in- vited to discuss the doctor’s fee with him, in order to avoid mis- understanding at a later time.’’ Oh, how 1 _-wish I had_taken-that- advice: But I assumed his fees would be in line with others: I had encountered. | I was hospitalized immediate- ly after the consultation. The doctor then inaugurated a ser- ies of tests and a program of treatment, the latter continuing after I left the hospital. The hos-

surance paid most of it.

But you should have seen the doctor’s bill! I thought it had to be a mistake, but the clinic bill- ing staff said the charge was correct. When I tried to reach the doctor by telephone, he was out of the country, at a medical convention. I wrote him, res- pectfully requesting his recon- sideration of his charges, in view of my financial means. His answer: “The charges stand; but may be paid over a period of several months if ne- cessary,”

I won’t be out of debt to this doctor for another year or more:,| Meanwhile my family will have to go without much of what many people consider ‘‘the ne-

Safety Council

A series of interesting meet- jings have been held in Central Queens Regional HIGH School during the past.few weeks, spo- nsored by the Safety Council.

Mrs. Albert Craswell chaired all the meetings and there was a good attendance.

A film ‘‘Are You Safe At Home was shown which pointed out jthe angers which we all take so lightly from day to day, but which can bring tragedy to a family.

Mrs. Evelyn Cutimore, Sin- clair Cutcliffe and Norman Mac- Leod_ were present at the first tMeeting.

At the second the guest speaker was Jack Kirby, who brought to the attention of the audience many ideas con- cerning ‘Home safety” in ‘the field of electricity.. He pointed out many ways in which the average citizen is actually play- ing with fire, in the manner in

If the two-job family home- imaker isn’t careful, the weekly food bill will often almost equal her pay check!

The natural tendency to waste food must be watched, for when plenty of money is coming in and there is little time to cock, the use of food oddments (which some persons regard as inconsequential - “l-e f tovers’*) may not seem important. But,

to a dollar—and dollars“. worth saving.

POSSIBLE WAYS

Use: the oddments; yes, all of them in ‘‘quick- cook’’ soups, skillet melanges of rice with , fish and vegetables; in varied omelets as im Spain; in hors d’oeuvres as in France; or in end of-the-week casseroles; Betties or other “quick-cook’’ desserts.
