A gaily decorated Christmas tree was in the living room and Mrs. Santa Claus arrived and greeted the bride and gave the presents from the tree, most of them being for the bride-elect, Miss King. A programme was ,given' and followed by a, lunch. Everyone enjoyed the jolly gathering; 4 HELD CHRISTMAS TREE `FOR A CHURCHILL `BRIDE-ELECT . WALLACE-KING A very pretty home wedding took place at Lefroy, on Thursday after- noon, December 5, 1929, when Helen Isabel, only daughter of Mr. Audus King and the late Mrs. King, became the bride of James Cecil Murray Wal- lace; B.S.A., of Tamworth, Ont., son of Mrs. Wallace, Aurora, and the late Mr. J. F. Wallace. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. J. McEwen of Church- ill. Miss Helen Nelson played the wed- ding music and during the signing of the register Mrs. R. H. Wallace of Hamilton sang For You Alone." The bride, looking very charming in a sleeveless gown of white transparent velvet. cut on gracefully simple lines, carried a sheaf of Sweetheart roses and lilies. The groom's gift to the bride was a white gold wrist watch and to the soloist and pianist dainty jewel-set bar pins. Later Mr. and Mrs. Wallace left on a trip to New York, New Haven, Conn., Hamilton and oth- .er points, the bride travelling in a brown and beige ensemble. with beav- er-trimmed coat and hat of brown vel- vet. They will take up residence in Tamworth, early in the New Year. GARDNER-FER.RIER The home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Ferrier of Painswick was the scene of a pretty wedding on Wednesday after- noon, Dec. 4, 1929, when their only daughter, Alma, became the bride of Mr. Ross Gardner of Stroud. The ceremony was performed by Rev, N. R. D. Sinclair of Allandale in the pre- sence of only the immediate relatives. To the strains of the wedding march played by Mrs. Jos. Ferrier, the bride entered `on the arm of her father and took her place beneath an arch of evergreens and ferns. She looked charming in a dress of ivory celanese. the skirt of which was gathered to a yoke and hung in four points. She wore a. vei1,of white silk net caught with orange blossoms and carried a bouquet of roses and carnations. Af- ter partaking of a dainty luncheon, the bride and groom left on a trip to Toronto and other points, the bride travelling in a dress of brown satin, brown fur`trim_med coat with hat and shoes to match. After their return they will reside on the groom's farm near Stroud. Matches were rst successfully made by machinery in 1840. I I The education, development and amusement of the modern child is given consideration, as never before. The choice of good books for them has been a matter of study and if your children do not have good reading, it is because you have not given suicient time to their `choosing. A wonderful choice is available. If you have not visited the children's department in a large book store it is worth your while to make an effort to do so.
