The bride and groom of fifty years ago were presenteq with a purse of gold by Mr. Lorne N. Rey- nolds and the following address read by their grandson, Mr. Ar- nold Jobb, of Oshawa. Blackstock, May 25th, 1931. Dear Mr. and Mrs. Galbraith: It is with great pleasure and good wishes for your continued good health in the future that we, your children and near relatives gather to honour you on this your golden wedding day. For fifty years you have travelled life's pathway together, passed along its smooth stretches and encountered its stony barriers. You have seen the great steps of progress, which have been made during your span of life, in science, in invention, in democ- racy, in everything that combines to give us our modern civiliza« tion. You have witnessed the ad- vance of your country into the foremost ranks of the nations, and undoubtedly it has been 2a great source of satisfaction to you to know that you have had an honourable part in this great expansion. You have seem your children grow into manhooq end womanhood and felt a justifiable glow of pride as they took their places as worthy citizens of our great Dominion, and now you have reached that period in life, when one may rest with the easy conscience of work well done and look back across the seas of life as a Mariner, who though buffet- ed by the elements has brought his stately ship safely to the shelter haven. So let us now present you with this token, though anything of ° material value can only give a suggestion of our deep devotion, and mar we add the' ardent prayer that the Bestower of all good gifts will continue to favour you with His blessings. (Signed) Lorne N. Reynolds, R. Arnold Jobb. An impromptu program with Rev. F. W. Newell, B.A., B.D,, as chairman, consisted of a number of speeches and old time songs concluding with "Blest Be the Tie That Binds", the Doxology and the Benediction pronounced by the pastor. A dainty buffet luncheon in- cluding the proverbial wedding cake added to the enjoyment of the afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Galbraith were both born in the Township of Cartwright, the former in 1852 and the latter in 1859. They were married in Whitby in 1881 and lived on their farm just south of Blackstock until a few years ago when they retired to the vil- lage. The farm is now occupied by their son, Herbert. One other son, George lives in Broadview, Sask. There are two daughters (Mabel) Mrs. E. Taylor, Alberta, and (Violet) Mrs. P. H. Jobb, Oshawa. There are also twenty grandchildren, Those present on this happy occasion were: Mr, and Mrs, H. R., Reynolds, Mr. and Mrs, L. N. Reynolds, Misses Ruth and Kirby Reynolds, Mrs. Robt. Wallace, Miss Margaret Wallace and Mrs. Howard Skinner, all of Toronto.

Burgess With strangers never be too free, For sometimes danger there may be. . ~Farmer Brown's Boy. Farmer Brown's Boy was alone the day he met the ugly stranger. He was on his horse on the de- sert when he saw, slowly moving across a 'sandy place, one of the desert people new to him. It was the color of the stranger that first caught his attention. He was rather handsomely dressed for such an ugly-looking felow, his whee coat from head to end of tai being pink and back. But this was a that was handsome about him. He belonged to the Lizard famiy. Farmer Brown's Boy knew this at first gance, but he was wholly different from any of the other Lizards Farmer Brown's Boy had seen. Most of these he had slim bodies, with long slim tails and astonishing speed. The one exception as to shape was Horny the Horned Li- zard, commonly called Horned Toad. But even Horny could run fast when he wanted to. This pink-and-back stranger was the biggest Lizard that Far- He found some small stones and began tossing them at the big Lizard. mer Brown's Boy ever had seen. He was almost two feet long, and instead of being slim and graceful he was big bodied, with a thick, short, rounded tail, a big blunt head and short legs. He was moving along slowly, and he did- n't look as if he gould move quick- ly if he tried. Farmer Brown's Boy got off his horse and ap- proached him for a better look at him. He noticed at once that this fellow wore no coat of scales, It was decided to postpone the July mecting to one week later on account of the date being Dominion Day and on the 8th to have the meeting in the form ¢f a picnic to Lakeview Park. The Treasurer was authorized to send a cheque for one hundred and twenty-five dollars to church board. The business session over the Ladies had the pleasure of hearing a very interesting talk from Miss Mayowna of W. M. S. at All Peo- ple's Mission, Albany St, who has been doing such wonderful work tor the church and in bringing comfort and understanding to so many lone- ly souls from Central Europe, com- ing into strange ports, Miss Mayowna's keen perception of the 'distress of the people and her modest way of telling how she was able to help them evidenced a noble. woman fitted for a great work. Her sparkling hunior pro- voked much laughter too. The ladies indeed appreciated the privilege of hearing Miss Mayowna speak and heartiest of good wishes go with r. Mizpah benediction was repeated and a very dainty afternoon tea en- joyed. This is June, the month of the blushing bride, but before jumping into the bonds of wedlock young men should seek the advice of their married elders who have had the experience of taking the family on a train trip, when little Willic ate the ticket and they found they were on the wrong train anyhow.

Instead he was cover- ed with little points' like beads under the skin. They were all over him, including his head, taii and legs. "Well," said Farmer Brown's Boy, "you are ahout as unpleas. ant looking a fellow as I have seen for a long time. 1 hope your disposition is better than your looks." The stranger took no notice of Lim, but moved along slowly. Every now and then his tongue was thrust out to examine the ground and it was forked like the tongue of a Snake, His body seemed too heavy for his legs, so that he appeared to drag it along the sand. Now, any other have darted away at the ap- proach of Farmer Brown's Boy, but this big, clumsy-lpoking fel- low merely moved a little faster, faster than he looked as if he could move, but compared with the speed of his various cousins it was anything but fast, "1 wonder if that is the best vou can do," said Farmer Brown's Joy. "I'll see if I can hurry up a bit." He found some small stones and began tossing these at the big Lizard. Two or three hit him. Instead of trying to run faster he suddenly twisted to one side as Farmer Brown's Boy came near, and snapped &t him with a quick- ness that made Farmer Brown's Boy jump to get out of the way. At the same time he hissed in a most unpleasant manner that re- minded Farmer Brown's Boy of Bluffer the Hog-nosed Snake back home. When he opened his mouth it showed black inside, and it also showed a set of teeth that looked decidedly dangerous. Again the big Lizard snapped, and again Farmer Brown's Boy jumped out of the way just in time, "My, you are ugly," he exclaimed. 'You certainly have got a temper. I don't like the look of you a bit. I don't want you to try those teeth on me. 1I wonder who you are and if a bite from you would be serious. You certainly look as if it would. 1 guess I won't try to pick you up." The big Lizard merely hissed in reply and looked as if he -would like nothing better than to fight. Every time Farmer Brown's Boy approached he made a quick, queer, twisting jump at him. He was no coward, that was certain. He showed no inclination to run away. He wasn't afraid and he showed it. He hadn't been look- ing for trouble, but he was quite willing to hold his ground. Al. together he was a most ugly-look- ing fellow, and Farmer Brown's Boy fet a sudden and deep respect for his fighting ability. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W. Bur- | 2€s88) The next story: Grip."
