THURSTON, Editor LITTLE-RUMBLE A very interestinK wedding was uolemnized at St. Andrew's Presby- terian Church, Hillsdale, Ontario, on Saturday, October 8, when Grace M. Humble, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. Rumble, became the bride of Thom- â- a.s E. Little, son of Dr. and Mrs. A. E. Little of Flesherton. The church vas very prettily decorated in brown And yellow chrysanthemums and the «eremony was performed by Rev J. K. West of Monkton, assisted by Rev. Mr. Ritchie, pastor of HilUdalc. Miss Eva Rumble played the wedding march and sang during the signing of the register, accompanied by Mrs. Holmes. Mrs. K. Rumble of Detroit was matron of honor. The groom â- was attended by Mr. John Costa of Noranda and the ushers were Messrs. Lou Campbell and Carlyle McDonald •of Toronto. The reception was held in the church parlors where Mrs. Rumble re- ceived the guests with the groom's niother who was gowned in rust sheer crepe with black hat and corsage of Talisman roses. The happy couple left by motor lor Montreal, the bride travelling in a suit of black vclour du noide with black sable collar and black velvet tricolor hat. They will live in Nor- anda where the groom is manager •of Waite-A-mulet. A magician, performing at Fort Erie on Labor Day caught a bullet fired from a Lee-Enfield 30,S rifle in his mouth, an act that magicians have been leary of and one that has killed a dozen in the past few years. Theodore Annenmann, the first man to perform the act and live, spun around and dropped to the ground when the bullet hit him, and spec- tators cried out, "He's killed." But lie got up to his feet again, and spat out the same marked slug into a saucer. List Of Prize Winiers At Feversnam Fair HOKSKS Draught â€" Pair horses, Frank Giffin; two-year-old, F.

To-night they gavg this timid soul member the most important portfolio in the Cabinet after all. He was duly el»-;ted "Official gcribe", his duty b mg to convey to the folks at home ae goings-on of the Old Boys and Girls in Toronto. It happened sort of accidently. The president had been elected, the first, second, third and so on right down to the last assistant to the dep- uty. Everybody had been elected ex- cept a few modest objectors and this timid soul. He might have secured a nomination for some office, but, be it said, he thoughtlessly, for just a second, pretended to line up with the conscientious objectors and â€" was left out! It seems, now, that this slight dis- play of modesty was accepted with somewhat undue and startling sud- denness. He was only pretending, mind you, just ever so little. He must have looked woebegone. But his disconsolate appearance at length attracted attention. Then ensued a wave of whispering. Osprey ioys and girls had got their heads togeth- er and something was bound to hap- pen. The very high office of "Of- ficial Scribe" was created. Just like that! And as this bewildered soul was the only one not preparing to leave for home, he was hurriedly nominated and elected. Shall he dare say almost unanimously. There was some confusion which fortunately staved off a show of hands of those opposing the motion. After the full realization of their recklessness had dawned, they did the happiest â€" the most magnificent thing. They appointed as assistant scribe, the pretty, young Miss Mary Find- lay. (This oldtimer, family man hopes that any such extemporaneous remarks do not jeopardize his few re- maining tufts of "silver threads among the gold" and he be forced into retirement, causing the expense of an early by-election.) See that comma after the word "pretty" thirty degrees west of north from here. It's his idea but could be a typographical en-or. He feels better now but this timid soul hasn't had such an inferiority complex since he was no bigger than a four-year-old "worry wart." Not since the big, rough village boys, on the way home from school, filled the back-side of his pants with snow. The behaviour that urged them to gang up on them and the drooping stern of his pants really invited the ignominy. Again he must accept re- sponsibility with his eustomai-y be- nign grace. The "built-in trunk" ef- fect of his trousers was, no doubt, due to the economies of the times. They had been designed for a dual purpose; in day time to shield his tender bacon and, at night to join the (shameful) association of several large flannel petticoats, shielding from early and late frosts the cu- cumber bed which always (darned thing) required weeding on the very best trout fishing days. There were still other economies that affected the "tame bee" appear- ance of boys' pants. Besides pro- viding for natural growth expansion, the dressmhker must have anticipated the swelling occasioned by too oft mas.saging by the .school master's maple pointer. ' Pants which were too tight, you see, had very few advant- ages. What could a feller do when gills, whom he had even considered in the light of future matrimony onfy the day before, were snickering be- hind their windows along the village street. He dare not pull the nail out of his suspender. He couldn't get the snow out with his woollen mitts on. So the snow began to melt in the heat of his consuming ignominy, Ht,' hail long outgrown his coat. The sleeves were so short and tight that he had given up trying to yank down a dry place over his chapped, red wrists just to humor a runny niisf. They seemed to shrink back to the elbows at every prospect of contacting the shiny wet sniveller. The stingy little pockets had been designed to barely hold the belong- ings of a four-year-old boy. let alone all the assets of one almost seven. They ctrntained, or partly contained, among other things, a large-handled jack-knife with a broken big blade and a tightly rusted shut little blade, a slippery old slate rag, a large spool peashooter (but a gocxl one), two dandy elm-crotch catapults and an even hundred short, stubby slate pencils. Now where, he asks you, ilid a fellow have room for his red bandana It would be just like buy- ing a money purse on tick. This press-committee has learned that modesty doesn't pay. It just trots you <-lectod to a pick and shovel job like Ihia, They (are, however, , (lotivmiried dt>ggedly to fulfil their j ihities.

The meeting of the members was held in Earlscouit Community Hall. 'We regret to have to report that the old codgers behaved most unseemly; imagining they could square-dance, laughing their heads off like that. The pretty, shy.but albeit critical, assistant scribe are not getting any- where in this reporting business, so they will have to begin all over again, if, as and when they become a little better acquainted. Punishmenlh Fell Short At Guelph a man and his wife were convicted of having contributed to the death of an orphan boy whom they had taken into their home To raise. The evidence adduced showed such heartlessness on their part as scarcely conceivable in any commun- ity, especially one as prosperous os that about the village of Fergus where the inhuman pair lived. The man was sentenced to six months imprisonment and his wife, whom the judge believed "the man of the house", to one year. His Honor was too merciful. Both may count them- selves fortunate that they got off so lightly. Had they been given th« experience of starvation and neglect, plus a few lashes each, it would not have elicited any sympathy for them from the public. Rather would such a sentence have been applauded. Young lives are too precious to b« abused by low minded adults. THE PARTY IS KNOWN An amusing little game of bluff re- sulted in what seems to have been a scoreless tie as played over two issues of a small weekly newspaper published in Perth County a while back. One week this significant ad- vertisement appeared: "The man who picked up a wallet on Main Street was recognized. He is requested to return it." Seven days passed but the bereaved wallet owner was still mourning his loss. Then in the next issue of the paper he read with con- siderable dismay: "The recognized nmn who picked up your wallet re- quests the loser to come at any time and collect it." â€" Chesley Enterprise.
