This Week’s Cover
- Away go the newly-marrieds into their brave new world and thank heaven it isn’t raining. John Clymer is nice about weather; on his covers it hardly ever rains. That church, says Clymer, is located in one state and the landscape in another state, and the honeymoon will take place in the state of bliss always visited on such trips. It is good to note that some awful boys are tying rubbish to the nuptial automobile. The groom and bride will blush as they depart dragging tin cans behind them—yet how sweet is tin-can music as it blends in memory with the Wedding March to affect young ears like the music of the spheres. Those two boys climbing the hill aren’t interested in girls, weddings and such nonsense. What a change of mind they’ve got coming.
