the thcerful jciung talesman of shoes
at the Regal. And J est or has a real
1 e 13011 to know.
Jester was choien to act as best
mail at the Siemens-Low nuptials this
morning. And duly honored by this.
Jester spent ical money yesterday In
gating a new white tie, his best suit
pressed, his shoes shiued. his nails
mnnlcuied and his head treated by all
the haircuts, massagei, shaves, etc.,
one barber could think of.
Kiiithermoie, nlthough the wed
ding win at 6 o'clock, Jester deter
mined to ho the first one at the Low
1 esldi lieu for the ceremony, and to In
suie this he set his alarm clock nt
l::in Then he tumbled Into the
sheets to get his beauty sleep that ho
iiiIkIU look his best on the morrow.
When (ilennlo parted company
with .Morpheus this morning, tbo sun
waa shining brightly In his window.
And It was not tho alarm clock that
aroused him. but an Insistent ham
mering on the door, and a voice an
nouncing that he was wanted at tho
phone.
All tho sleepiness loft Jebter when
be reached tho phono, for ho learned
that It was then after C, and that tho
1 ei oniony was being delayed by tho
lack of a host man. Ho Med to his
'loom, dashed tho alarm clock from
the window, Jumped Into his care
fully arranged raiment, and then
beat all speed records to tho Low
home. He nrrlved Just In tlmo for
breakfast.
Lloyd Low was prossed Into service
as best man, and tho ceremony pro
ceeded without further hitch. It Is
, needless to say that Jestor felt other
wise than as a Jester, for ho was tho
Jest of the occasion, and for onco In
his llfo his keen wit was tumble to
frame up any "como-back."
A search for tho alarm clock to
day proved that tho young man, In
Ills anger, threw the timepiece so
hard that it broke to smithereens,
This Is Indeed uufortunalo, for there
was much speculation as to whether
Jester was so nnxlnus to set tho clock
ut 1:30 that he overlooked turning
on the alarm, or whether tho clock,
being union made, refused to go to
work lioforo 8 o'clock, tho hour when
It has been accustomed to knocking
tho slumber out of Jester,
Jester has ronchod ono determina
