They re- duce profits. They would eat you out of house and home if they were al- lowed to go unrestricted. Someone | must destroy the pests, or they would | destroy us. It is a common thing to | see neglect of the pests --the tents of the caterpillar are thick in some i localities. ! © One of the most fruitful sources of | neglect is the question of responsi- bility. Some caterpillars pitch their | tents on the roadside, others in the fence corners. They are not par- ticular so long as there is plenty to | eat. The main problem is that while | the municipality officials and the pro- perty owners squabble as to responsi- bility, the pests thrive. It is too bad that there have to be so many laws to compel us to look after these duties; but we could afford to be even more forceful in the matter. Another phase of this subject is the | spread of weeds. Between Port Perry | and Prince Albert there are some i thrifty patches of tares and "devil's paint brush". They make a fine color ! showing; but they are bad weeds and should be destroyed. Sow thistle is also greatly on the increase, and very stringent methods will have to be adopted for the eradication of this weed. Prompt payment of subscriptions will be much appreciated $1.50 per year in SWEETMAN-FULLERTON A very pretty June wedding was solemnized at the home of the bride's aunt, on Wheeler Ave, on Saturday afternoon, June 27th, when Miss Elizabeth Jean Fullerton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fullerton, of Paisley, Ontario, became the bride of Nelson Allan Sweetman, B.A., son of Mr. and Mrs. George Sweetman, of Scugog Island. Rev. J. R. Sanderson, of the Beaches Presbyterian Church, conducted the ceremony. The bride was charmingly attired in a lovely gown of chantilly lace and silk Brus- sels net over satin, and carried a shower bouquet of roses and lily-of- the-valley, and was attended by Miss Catharine M. McEwen, as bridesmaid, who wore a becoming printed chiffon over yellow crepe, and carried a bou- quet of pink and white carnations, blue cornflowers and baby's breath. The groom was attended by his cousin Mr. Clair Sweetman. Masses of pink and white peonies, pink larkspur and white canterbury bells, ferns and palms transformed the drawing room into a veritable bower, making a beautiful setting for the lovely bride. After the reception, the couple left for an extended motor trip through West- ern Ontario, the bride wearing a travelling suit of brown with touches of white. They will spend the sum: mer at Highland Glen, on Lake Huron, returning in the early fall to take up residence in Toronto. ROSS-LUCAS In the United Church, Brighton, Ont, the marriage took place of Muriel M., daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Ross, to J. Douglas Lucas, of Toronto, son of Mr. and Mrs. James Lucas, of Port Perry. Rev. C. W. Barrett officiated and Miss Frances Solomon, of Brighton, played the wedding music.

They carried old- fashioned nosegays of sweet peas and roses to match their gowns. The little lower girl, Marie Lucas, of To- ronto, was charming in a peach georg- ette frock with hat to match and car- ried a Colonial nosegay.
