Lacy, maid of honour, Miss Peggy Wilâ€" liams and Miss Gwen Grill, as flower girls, and Master Art Larivee, The groom was assisted by Mr. T. Harris, groomsman. Mr. J. Harris and Mr. T. Williams were the ushers. The bride was given away by her brother, Mr. W. Harris. About a hundred guests were present. The groom‘s gift to the bride Pretty Wedding at St. Matthew‘s on April 30th was a white gold watch; to the maid of honour, a jade necklace; to the flower girls, goldâ€"beaded handbags; to the atâ€" tendant, gold ring; to the groomsman, a fountain pen. The happy couple were the recipients of numerous beautiful gifts, including pyrex dishes from the L.O.B.A. No. 2552. A number of the presents came from friends and relatives in England, while Timmins and Schumacher friends and relatives also sent tokens of estsem and good wishes. After the ceremony a reâ€" ception was held at the home of the bride‘s parents, 75 Tamarack street, Timmins. : Huntingdon Gleaner:â€"John Glenn driver for the American Railway Exâ€" press, was walking by City Park, in Covington, Ga. He saw a robin. Gleen observed that something was wrong with the bird. He stepped closer. "Hic" chirped the robin, flapping his wings weakly. Glenn picked the robin up. It smelled faintly of liquor. He investiâ€" gated and found the juice of china berâ€" ries, rotting in a damp place under china berry tree. The berries had ferâ€" mented, producing an alcoholic subâ€" stance of sorts. Knowing his story would be doubted, Glenn called in several reputable men of the communiâ€" ty, including Ed. W. Fowler, who first marveled and then substantiated Glenn‘s contention that the ‘bird was indeed drunk from the juice of the rotâ€" ting berries. Gordon Block, Timmins at 11.30 p.m. AUDIO REVIEW Soviet Parades in Canada on May Day Winnipeg had probably the largest demonstration of any Canadian city, but it was without any serious conâ€" Summary Given by the Canadian Press of Activity of Communist; on May Ist, Attempts to Create Disorâ€" der All Forestalled, In Timmins there has been particular interest in the communists and their attempts to create disorder and trouble in as many places in Canada as posâ€" sible. People here will be interested in the results of the work of the paid agents of the Soviet. In Timmins the attempts to create trouble have proved abortive through the efforts of the auâ€" thorities. It was expected, in view of The fiasco in Timmins was repeated all over Canada on Friday last. As nearly as can be estimated not more than 25 communists in the whole counâ€" try were arrested on May Day. Some of these were released as soon as their impdence and freshness had been treatâ€" ed by simply being held in the cooler for a few hours. The Canadian Press gives the following summary of the May Day throughout Canada:â€" the posters, pamphlets and circulars issued recently that the communists were making especial effort to capture May Day. Tihie communists make a specialty of "boring from within" and by this plan have succeeded in caprturâ€" ing or killing several unions and merâ€" cantile concerns. It has evidently been their plan to capture the First of May parades, and in view of the fact that the regular unions consider Labour Day as their special holiday, the communâ€" ists have made progress in this regard. This year they planned to show their strength, and with and other features of conditions toâ€"day to assist them it looked as if they would make a showing out of all propoartion to their real strength. The country, however, is becoming increasingly inâ€" censed at the idea of a group of paid agitators from foreign countries atâ€" tempting to dictate to the people here and wilfully breaking the laws of the land, impeding traffic and disturbing affairs generally. There was a general desire on the part of the public that the alien agitaters should be set in their place. No one wanted to stop them spouting, if they wanted to spout, but there was a general call that they be given no special ptrivileges denied to decent lawâ€"abiding people. In cases where they had outside meetings in specified areas where the general public was not inconvenienced, they were not interfered with, but where they tried to insult or defy the law, they were dealt with.

At Timmins a meeting was held but no parade. The crowd of citizens was hostile to the Communist speeches and sang songs in opposition to the ‘Red‘ choruses. At Sudbury a gathering was held in Bell Park and three speakers haranguâ€" ed the crowd, about 2,000 persons atâ€" tended, many mostly curiosity seekers. There was no disturbance. sequences Eight hundred police gathered at Vicâ€" toria Square in Montreal and effectively prevented a meeting there. One was arrested. R At Norands, Que., there was a street fight between police and Communists. Oone man and a woman were arrested. Calgary had a short but sharp skirâ€" mish between police and agitators when the former attempted to break up parade. Seven were arrested, many sustained slight bruises. The Twin Cities of Fort William and Port Arthur had a few interesting moments, but here too police were soon in the driver‘s seat. Hamilton had an easy time of it. Toronto police hopelessly outnumberâ€" ed the Communists A minor brush occurred before the curious crowd had been dispersed when a shower of bricks struck two officers. Minor wounds were inflicted and three Communists were arrested in retaliation. The scheduled meetings at Sault Ste. Marie and Sturgeon Palls failed to maâ€" ture. At Rouyn about 100 Comunists tried to hold a parade but were dispersed by the police aided by private citizens. Everybody Come and Whoop It Up Round and Oldâ€"fashioned Square Dancing.

The Columâ€" bian Squires, junior organization of the Knights of Columbus, has circles in many parts of the United States and Canada, and is growing steadily. Barrie Examiner:â€"New inventions are making this more and more a thingless world. To mention only three or four, we have bloodless surgery, wireâ€" las telephony, smokeless powder, cafâ€" feineless coffee and now the Germans have developed a nicotineless tobacco. Mr. Wells will also give some interâ€" esting figures on the membership and insurance strength of the Order. The membership as of June 30 was 618,611 in 2,555 councils in United States, Canâ€" ada, Philippine Isands, Cuba, Mexico, Porto Rico, Newfoundland, Alaska and Panama.

One of them, on a salary of $4,000 a year, bought $48,000 worth of securities in four years. At least it is to be said of him that he did not waste his substance in riotous living.

Toronto Board of Trade Annual Tour Torcnto Mail and Empire: Galiant cld mother of free nations! Though she lost a great part of her young manhood in the World War, and though she assumed financial obligations which have made her ever since the most heavilyâ€"taxed nation in the world, she continues to carry her unâ€" paralleled burdens with singular courâ€" age and firmness of purpose. She inâ€" sists on pliying her obligations to the United States, contracted in the comâ€" mon interests, though she can never collect more than a fraction of what she loaned to her European allies. She carries the cost of administering a worldâ€"wide Empire. She meets most 0@ theexpenses necessary for the naval security of that Emp:re. Export marâ€" kets for some of her basic industries were lost during the war, and she has between two and three million people always unemployed. But, in sprlte of all this, she is able to go to the resecue of the daughter nation on the other side ‘of the world in that daughter nation‘s financial extremity.

In order to achieve this distinction, he _ had to sideâ€"track a highly capable boy in Ray Cook, of Toronto, all of which serves to establish the Timmins entrant as the undoubted champion of the rlâ€"ovince. Press critics measured the Toronto and Timmins lads as closely matched, but gave the Northerner the edge on enâ€" during qualities and ability to assimiâ€" late punishment. Hamilton has conâ€" quered all in or around his class in Northern districts, and prior to particiâ€" pating in the provincial finals, freâ€" quently dipped down South to match skill with the best in that area. His ascension has been secure from the commencement, and many consider that he is headed to acquire title honâ€" ours in the Dominion field. Hamilton has achieved pppularity wherever he has shown, and made a host of friends among the 2,000 or more who witnessed the recent championship tourney." Leave Iroquois Falls, 12.00 midnigh May 28.
