relatives being present. The bride
was costumed in a gown of white silk
and carried a bouquet of lilies of the

and hand bag to match. After the cer-
emony a luncheon was partaken of and

The Two Elliotts.
The Stratford Beacon of last Satur-
day makes the following reference to
the editor of The TiMES and his brother
W. J. Elliott, of the Ingersoll Chron-
icle: -Two Elliotts ran for mayors of
their respective towns, W. 3., the edit-
or of the Ingersoll Chronicle, was elect-
ed, and H. B., editor of the Wingham
Times was detested by only 22 votes.
He takes his defeat quite philosophi-
cally and thinks it may be as well that
he was not elected. as he can criticize
the council with more freedom, and
in this he is probably right. They are
both sons of Mr. R. Elliott, the veteran
newspaper man, who served his appren-
ticeship in the office of the Listowel
Banner and after several years of
newspaper work became treasurer of
the High Court of the Canadian Order
of Foresters, and is now residing at
Brantford.
The Weekly Newspaper.
In the county of Bruce the weekly pa-
pers have advanced their subscription
rates to $1.50, dating from Eeb. Ist1916,
finding that $1 is too low in view of the
increased cost of production. The St
Lawrence River Press Association has
raised the $1.50 standard. In some dis-
tricts in the West the $1.50 rate has
been adopted and last week, The Seaforth
Expositor, not waiting for any joint ac-
tion on the part of the papers of Huron
county, announced an increase in the
subscription price to $1.507 to come into
effect April 1st. The Exiositor says: --
"We have not taken this step in connec-
tion with any combination or organiza-
tion, but entirely on our own initiative,
dictated by stern necessity and we rely
upon the intelligence and fairness of
our subscribers to hark us up. We be-
lieve they will do it. The drygoods
merchant, the grocer, the baker, the
butcher, the blacksmith, have all been
obliged to advance their prices to a pay-
ing basis. Even the farmer receives
nnueh larger prices for everything he
raises. In view of these facts it should
not be a matter of surprise that the
newspaper man should also require to
increase the cost of his product." The
TIMES, in common with other weekly
papers, is up against the proposition of
increased cost and by rights the $1.60
rate should have been adopted sortie
time ago. Ste .are still znhintainingotrr
tate at the aid price of $1, however, for
the present.
Has Three Sona Enlisted
Three sons of Mrs. Aitcheson, of
town, have now enlisted for overseas
services, Loehie joining the first contin-
gent and losing his life at the battle of
St Julien, Wallace enlisting in the 161st
):iuron Battalion, while Lorne has enlist-
ed with the Lainbton Battalion from
1•'etrolia,
