WEDDINGS W EBSTER—LENNOX BLYTH — Marriage vows were exchanged by Jean Elizabeth Len- nox, Reg.N., daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Lennox, Sarnia, and George Russell Webster, son of Mr. and Mrs. Keith Webster, Blyth, at a candlelight ceremony Friday evening, June 2, at 7:30, in Pater- son Memorial Presbyterian Church, Sarnia. Baskets of mauve and white lilacs made a pleasing back- ground. The officiating clergyman was Rev. G. II. Young, minister of the church. Mrs. Jean Deys, church organist, played bridal music and accompanied the soloist as she sang "0 Perfect Love," "A Wed- ding Prayer" and "The Lord's Prayer." The bride, given in marriage by her father, had chosen' for her wedding a traditional full .length gown of silk organza over tulle and bridal taffeta. The fitted bodice was of Guipere lace, which also formed the three-quarter length sleeves and outlined the scoop neckline. A pahel of lace featured the front of the bodice and extended to the hemline of the skirt. A crown of pearls and sequins held in place her double silk illusion veil. She carried a cascade of lily of the valley and trailing ivy, centered with a white orchid. The bride's attendants were all members of her 1960 graduating class of nurses of Victoria Hos- pital, London. Miss Carol Jones, London, was maid of honor. Her sheath dress of peau-de-soi was fashioned with short sleeves and round neckline. She carried a small basket of white lilacs. Her headdress was fashioned of mauve ribbon which was worn with a face veil. The bridesmaids were Miss Ruth Ball, of Kerwood, and Miss Sally Nott, London, cousin of the bride- groom. Their dresses, headdresses and flower's were identical to the The Legion Corner (By JACK HOLLAND) Well, Comrades and friends, the official opening"of the new Legion Hall went over without a hitch and was an outstanding event in every way. Program details were. ably conducted by Branch President Al- lan Nicholson, and due to good weather there was a real record turnout by Legion and community members alike. After the hall was officially op- ened, a real enjoyable social eve- ning and dance was enjoyed•by a large crowd, so on behalf of the Branch, thanks to you all who made the event the success that it was. * * * To drop back to yesteryear, do you remember that 17 years ago (it doesn't seem that long), on June 6, 1944, the mightiest armada in military history invaded the coasts of France and Normandy. There were thousands of Canadian servicemen involved in this opera- tion—on land, on sea, and in the air. This mighty, force on the- channelrossing with an aerial umbrella grossing 11,000 aircraft over- head, slielt the word "doom" to Nazi Germany; and the English Bulldog in his broadcasts to occu- pied Europe put new heart into the millions of the enslaved. Slight- ly less than a year later it was all over, and we of the overseas force, started to look forward to the return to our native land. But all this was not without a terrific cost in life, and to those who made our • return possible by their supreme sacrifice I join with my fellow Comrades in this: "At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we shall re- member them." Urge Completion of Agricultural Forms Census enumerators are well ad- vanced in'their work, according to area commissioner James E. Mc- Quaid. Work began June 1. Mr. McQuaid said the only diffi- culty being experienced was that in certain instances it was found rural householders had not com- pleted the agricultural form which had been received through the mail. This necessitates a return trip by the enumerator. Mr. Mc- Quaid said it would assist a great deal and save valuable time if all forms were completed and ready for the enumerator's call. A Redemptorist Father, Rev. Dem- eragh was the guest speaker for the services. 0' maid of honor's. Mr. Tom Webster, of Londop, was his brother's best mar} and the ushers were David arab• Wil- liam Lennox, Sarnia. Following 'the ceremony a wed- ding luncheon was served in the dining hall of the church, where again the decorations were white and mauve lilacs. The bride's moth- er received the guests wearing a beige lace sheath dress with mink stole, rose accessories and a cor- sage of white baby mums and pink roses. She was assisted by the bridegroom's mother, Mrs. Web- ster, who wore for the occasion ai' blue printed silk dress with pow- der blue- accessories.. Her corsage was white baby mums and pink roses. ' Mr. and Mrs. Webster left later on a honeymoon trip to New York State, the bride travelling in a light blue walking suit, white ac- cessories and a white orchid cor- sage. On their return they will re- side at 435 Nelson St., London. Guests at the wedding were from Blyth, Burlington, Chatham, Eg- mondville, Hamilton, London, Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, St. Thomas, Toronto and Weston. CRAIG—WILSON 'BLYTH —;Blyth United Church was the scene of a very pretty wed- ding Saturday afternoon, June 3, at 2:00 o'clock, when Rev. R.

The flowers on the altar were a basket of pink snapdragon and white chrysanthemums. On either side were baskets of pink and white tulips, flanked with potted ferns. Miss Margaret Jackson, church or- ganist, played the wedding music. The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, was lovely in a floor -length gown of white em- broidered nylon sheer over satin. The fitted bodice was styled with a sabrina neckline with seed pearls and iridescent sequins on satin. The full skirt cascaded into a chapel train. Her fingertip veil of silk illusion fell from a coronet of pearls and sequins. She wore nylon mittens, and carried a' nosegay of pink sweetheart roses, white steph- anotis in pleated white tulle and ribbon. Her only ornament was cul- tured pearl earrings, the gift of the bridegroom. Mrs. Lloyd McDowell, of West-. field, niece of the bride, was ma- tron of honor. She wore a street - length dress of pale pink organza over taffeta and matching hat. Her flowers was a nosegay of baby pom-pom mums, set in pink tulle and ribbon. The junior bridesmaids, Misses Maxine and Connie Bowes and Sheila Blake, Blyth, all nieces of the bride, wore dresses similar to the matron of honor's, pale pink chiffon over taffeta. Their nose- gays were also identical, to the one carried by the matron of honor. Miss Lauree Anne Kane, of Mit- chell, niece of the bridegroom, was flower -girl, her costume being identical to the junior bridesmaids. Donald Craig was his brother's best man. The ushers were James Foster, nephew of the bride, and Murray Kane, Mitchell, brother-in- law of the bridegroom. A wedding dinner was served in the church dining hall by a group of WA members.
