_ â€"â€". Exeuse us if we continue to refer to Phyllis and her marriage, but we cannot réefrain from mentioning the gifts received by this fortunate young couple.: The room in which they were displayed looked like a very overâ€" crowded store. ‘There was everything,‘ including a complete set of crystal for eight, a complete set of Wedgewocd chinaware in the lovely Morning Gory design, a complete cabinet of silverware, electric kettle, pressure g.cooker five lamps, nine Kenwood blankets, a silver teaâ€"service, handâ€" wn sheets and pillow cases, a pretty green glazed chintz bedroom chair, C * a beautiful living room mirror, cups and saucers galore, odd plates, a pewter e tray. three tables, an enormous hassock, relish dishes, salt and pepper _‘ whakers and a raft load of towels and linens, everything for the kitchen s [except a can opener) and many many more practical and lovely gifts far j Jéoo numerous to mention Attending the reception for. Mr, and Mrs. Ron Moyle whicfi was held in the McIntyre Lounge, immediately following the wedding ceremony, _ we had an opportunity to glean a little news of local interest. _"_; Chatting with Mr..and Mrs. Jimmy Keene, who, incidentally, are better following the long seige of illness endured by each of them, 'â€"""y heard that Mickey Splane, who on the engineering staff at the ‘\ ‘Hoillinger mine and: was one of Timmin‘s most eligible bachelors, has T ‘j'oined the ranks of the benedicts, having married a very charming girl from London, England, and they now reside in Matachewan. Mr. Keene reports that Mr. and Mrs. Splane are quite seéttled and very happy and â€"«ishe should know, as Mr. and Mrs. Keene recently vxsited them in Matachâ€" _ eWA o ar a* Ohatting with Mrs. E. H. King, who was wearing a swishâ€" black hat that looked most becoming over her lovely white hair, we learned that her daughter Patricia was terribly disappointed at not being able to attend the wedding as she and Phyllis are very close, lifelong friends. Patricia is now the mother of a bonny young boy named Arthur who will be one year old next Sunday. Mrs, King also told us that she had her brother and sisterâ€"inâ€"law, Mr. and Mrs. John Peters, and their son Larry visiting ber. John will be remembered by many readers as he attended school here prior to his enlistment in the R.CN.V R.. appéatance in Timmins since his f from London Sanatormm we were pleased to note. how much better*and more rested he looked. While in Toronto, following his discharge fromâ€"the â€"SGan, Councillor Roberts received an invitation from Mayor Saundersâ€"of â€"Toronto to attend a civic reception and banquet in the King Edward Hotel which was held in honor of Field Marshall Montgomery.

GCan‘t quite figure out what Phyllis has that we lack, except of course, an ability to write, which is of m importance from an editor‘s point of view.© Here‘s hoping our readers will show the same tclerance and forbearance for a couple of weeks! +« Lawrence, one of our linotype operators,â€"set us off to a very bad start â€"by stating, in no uncertain terms, that setting type for the . weddings is "the bunk" anyway, â€"they‘re all the same except for the names. Maybe he‘ll change his mind about these things someâ€"day. The children of Central School staged another interesting and successful fair on Monday..
