WEDDINGS

Wingham United Church, graced
with white chrysanthemums and tall
white tapers hi candelabra, was the
setting for a charming double ring
wedding ceremony on Friday evening,
November 29th,, when Donna Frances,
daughter of Mrs. Buchanan and the
late Harold F. Buchanan, became the
bride of Harold Carl Clark, of Detroit,
son of Mrs, Mabel Arnold of Detroit.
Rev. W. A, Beecroft officiated, and
Mr. A. W. Anderton presided at the
organ. The soloist, Mrs, Douglas Fry,
sang, "0 Perfect Love', and "AlWays".
Given in marriage by her uncle, Mr.
Gordon W. Buchanan, the bride was
charming in a gown of white slipper
satin, with overskirt of white heirloom
lace and bustle back. Her long french
veil, which extended into a train was
held in place by a Juliet cap of seed
pearls. She carried a white Bible with
orchids and satin streamers, and wine
the groom's gift, a string of pearls.
Mrs. John McLeod of Guelph, sister
of the bride, as matron of honour, was
gowned in yellow daffodil taffeta with
black velvet bodice, fashioned with
sweet heart neckline and cap sleeves.
Her large black velvet picture hat was
erownless and faced to match the
skirt with taffeta and ostrich feathers.

slight train on the skirt. She carried
yellow and bronze mums. The two
bridesmaids, Miss Peggy Clark of De-
troit and Miss Joyce Walker, wore
gowns similar to that of the matron

flowers were matching cascades of
mums. Mary Lu Dunlop was flower

ers were Gerald Anderson and Hugh •

IN MANY WAYS
The name January is derived from
the two-faced god, Janus. He Was
originally the god of light and 'day,
however, he gradually became the god
,of the beginning of things.
The beginning of the year was sac-
red to Janus and a, festival in his hon-
or called Agonia was celebrated. At
the beginning of any important under-
taking his aid and advice was sought.
He was worshipped as the guardian
of trade and slipping and he was the
inventor of agriculture.
In addition to secular celebrations,
many religious denominations hold
special services on New Year's Eve
from 9 or 10 to 12 o'clock.
The Methodist Episcopal church
was the earliest,: to adopt this custom
and they are called "watchnight ser-
vices."
In 1944, St. Geprge's Methodist Ep-
iscopal church in Philadelphia held its
BAPTIST CHURCH

OBSERVE HOLIDAY.
s:*
With the exception of wartime, the
date is a legal mason for liberty for
the soldier and sailor. Yes, army and
navy regulations specifically state this
fact.
To quote from the navy regulations:
"The first of January—and such other
days as may be designated by the Pre-
s!dent, including the day of national
thanksgiving, shall be designated as
holidays on board ships of the navy
and all naval stations.
Thanks!
Having disposed of my
bikery business to Mr.
C. Thuell, Ripley, I take
this means of expressing
my appreciation to my
many patrons for their
loyal patronage during
the past twelve years,
and ask for my successor
your continued patron-
age.
In the near futures,, it
may be my pleasure to
serve you again in anoth-

The number of organizations spon—
soring the parade, the divisions- and'.

the years. On New Year's Eve lin

NEW YEAR'S MUMMERS
PARADE BIG EVENT
The Mummer's Parade on New
Year's Eve is to ,Philadelphia what the
TournaMent of Roses :5 to Pasadena—
only the Mummers have a priority on
tradition. .•
The earliest settlers in the vicinity
of present-day Philadelphia were Eng-
lish and Swedes.. The English cher-
ished the traditional Mummer. play
"St. George and the Dragon," while
the Swedes were fond of .masquerad-
ing informally on New Year's Eve,
The two customs had merged long be-
fore the Revolution and it was cus-
tomary—even among the Quakers—to
extend hospitality to the masqueraders
or give them a dole for refreshments.
After the Revolution, George Wash-
ington replaced St. George as the cen-
tral figure' of the festivities which con-
tinued along' the path of spontaneity
until 1886 when the parade was spon-
sored by the Silver Crown New Year's •
association.
The Municipal administration offici-
ally recognized the parade in 1901, and
