After the usual, toasts and an evening spent in social chat, the happy couple left for their home amid showers of rice and old shoes, and the best wishes of the company. Mrs. Dewar recalls that it was pouring rain and awful weather, The Watson lane was about a mile long and very muddy and she felt so badly that her hus- band's fine new buggy was get- ting plastered with mud on the drive to their home on the next farm, In reminiscing, Mr. Dewar said that 50 years was a long time when one looked ahead but for him they'd been good years, the only trouble was that they'd been too short. He recalled that he'd finished seeding on his wedding day and that night it commenced to rain and continued for some days. He'd been the first to start seeding and had it all done be- fore the others on the Sauble Line commenced. Neighbours told him that the seed would rot in the ground, but despite their predictions, he had a better crop 'than any that year. They resided on the Blue Wet- ' er Highway until 191.7 when they moved to their present home in the village. Until about a year ago, he kept his hand in at farming by raising a few calves and working the vegetable gar- den. In his younger days, Mr. Dewar took an active part in commun- ity affairs. He served on the Stanley Township Council for I seven years, two of which he was Reeve. For a number of years he was on the Trustee Board of S.S. NO, 4, Stanley. After com- ing to Hayfield he was a member of the Municipal Council for two years. A life-long member of St. Andrew's Churdh he served on the Board of Management both before and after Church Union. David Dewar Anniversary St. ANDREW'S WA The Women's Association of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church will meet at Mrs. Ed.

Mr. and Mrs. Dewar were the recipients of handsome gifts from their children, flowers, and many cards and .congratulatory messag- es. And to top off a very happy day they had a long-distance telephone call from their elder daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. William L: 1V(etcalf, from Vancouver. We wish the bride and groom of 50 years many more happy years together. With more than 200 young people present, coming from all Sections of the county, Huron Presbytery Young People's Union of the United Church of Canada held its 26th annual convention in Hensel" United Church on Monday evening. Miss Doris Griersorx, Londesboro, the presi- dent, was in charge, Clare Vin- cent, Londesboro, was unanimous- ly elected president for a two- year term'. Guest speaker of the evening, using the theme "I Have A Stewardship", was Rev. W. L. Morden, assistant minister of First-St. Andrew's United Church, London. Mr. Morden pointed out that too frequently men and women only give to God what is left over and-of no use such as some things that might be given to the rag man, if such could be compared to life. Out timeo tal- ents and money should first of all be God's, the speaker declar- ed. One man believed in send- ing his wife to church and his family • to Sunday School while he himself relaxed, and yet if the church or its representatives were ever needed this same man would be the first to call on it. Tre- mendous sums, amounting to bil- lions of dollars, are spent annual- ]y on liquor, tobaccos, cosmetics, theatres, etc., but much smaller sums are spent On churches. The speaker stated that too often the quarter goes to church when the dollar should be going. We often think that our talents are not worth much, but God has given us what talents -we possess for a purpose, and these should all be used- to His glory, Mr. Morden said. The speaker closed, by challenging the group to put God first and not last, and to give proper stewardship of all that we possess. Following Rev, Mr. Morden's address, a film, "No Other Gods", was shown which very aptly brought out the points that Mr. Morden had been mentioning. Worship of the evening was con- ducted by Clare Vincent. The ladies of the church served a delicious banquet in the church hall. Throughout the evening group singing was led by Donald Yungblut, Auburn; Brock Vodden, Blyth; and Benson Sutter, Clin- ton. Greetings were brought from the London Conference by Har- vey Sperling, presider t; Middle- sex Presbytery, Don Deas, past president; Kent Presbytery, Tom Martin; and Lambton Presbytery, Terry Laird.

Mr. and Mrs. Mark Golden (By our Hayfield correspondent) Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. David Devvar who on Tues- day, April 29 quietly marked their golden wedding anniversary. Since their children, Elva (Mrs. William L. Metcalf), Vancouver, B.C.; Anne (Mrs. Ernest Rehn), Detroit; David, Toronto; and James, Kingston, could not be present, they held no celebra- tion, but relatives dropped in during the day to extend con- gratulations and best wishes, A pretty wedding was solem- nized at Maple Grove Farm, the hone of the bride's parents, Sarah Manns and John Watson, Sauble Line, Stanley Township, on April 29, 1902, at seven o'clock in the evening, when their sec- ond daughter, Ada Elva, was united in marriage to David Charles, fourth son of Charlotte Ann Thompson and James Dewar, also of the Sauble Line. Standing under an arch of evergreens and flowers the charming bride was gowned in white dimity trimmed with ruf- fles of Valenciennes lace, fash- ioned with a short train and three-quarter length sleeves, and accented with white satin rib- bon. She wore a white rose in her hair.' Miss Lillian Miller, Clinton, who attended the bride, was pretty in a pink muslin dress trimmed with lace. The groom was supported by Joseph Mos- sop, Stanley. (Both the brides- maid and groomsman have since passed away). Following the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. 3. G. Yelland, Pastor of Bayfield Methodist Circuit, they repaired to the dining-room where a sumptuous chicken dinner was served to 18, the table being WATCH fOR WILLIE IN THE ADS ra MERRILL ,:-.-,.„ RADIO & ELECTRIC g ........., cSaft,i, and c.S.Et vice PHONE 313 CLINTON -.444-4-4-41-4e.-•-•-•-.444-0-4.440-4,44.-+ I CDCI At Home. Marks Silver Anniversari In Present Building (By Betty Lou Nediger) CDCI1 0 annual At-Home this year was the 25th anniversary of CDCI in the present building, It was held on Friday, April 25, commencing at nine o'cloek. Soon the rustle of taffetas, silks, and organdies could be heard, as everyone swayed un- der soft blue 'lights to the in- spiring music of Frankie Banks and his orchestra. Owing' to the anniversary, all the decorations referred back to the dear old CDCI, when it.,mov- ed into the new school in 1927. Suspended 'from the ceiling were, many stars, all different sizes, which made it seem as if you were dancing under real ones. Even the gym was de- eorated to introduce the coming of spring, with flowers, rabbits, reanidlinbgisrds lining the walk and Three lunches were served and everyone was seated at card tables, with candlelights giving the finish-touch., Soon the ice- cream, cake and punch disappear= ed, then everyone returned to the .auditorium for more enchant- ing music. The girls on the lunch committee are to be congratulat- ed for their efforts in presenting us with such a refreshing lunch. During the night there were two special dances which every- one enjoyed. The spot dance was won by Betty Parke and Mel Graham, while the elimination dance was taken by Don And- rews and Mrs. Murray Roy. Each received a gift from some of the merchants of Clinton. Many of the teachers were there in their bright array. They seemed to enjoy themselves. A large number of guests were in attendance, along with numerous students. Too soon, one o'clock came and the National Anthem was played. All persons rushed out of the auditorium with corsages droop- ing, scuffed shoes and aching feet, to get their coats. Members of the decorating committee are to be congratulated for their colourful work, done during the week before the At- Home. Now we shall sit back and wait for the annual dance next year, when we shall return again for another evening of de- lightful music and dancing. Patrons were Principal and Mrs. E. A. Fines, Mr. and Mrs. N. P. Garrett, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. McGee and Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Olde. Decorating committee, headed by Miss Jane Hildebrand ;and Jolm R. Gilbank; lunch commit- t6, headed by Mrs. F.
