In Fordwich, on Wednesday, Aug.
25, 1915, at the home of Mr. and Mrs,
Thos. Wheiler, a quiet, but pretty
wedding took place, when their eldest
daughter, Annie Mae, became the bride
of Mr, Arthur Gladstone Orr, of Owen
Sound, Rev. Mr. Roberts, of Gerrie,
ollleiated, The bride entered the room
leaning on the arm of her father and
was beautifully gowned in white silk
with bridal veil caught with orange
blossoms and sweet peas, and carried a
!nugget of carnations and sweet peas.
She was attended by her sister, Mary,
and the groomby Oscar Wheiler, brother
of the bride, The guests, to the
number of twenty-five, sat down to a
bountiful tea provided for the ocassion.
After several adjournments, Robert
King was fined $50 and costs, making
a total of $77, for having liquor for
sale. The inspectors made a raid on
Mr. King's place and found two partly
empty beer bottles which had been left
over from the night before, which, on
testing, was away over the proper test.
King claimed it had fermented over
night.
Mr. Lannan of the Union was found
not guilty on the same raid.
J. Bedford of Hotel Bedford was
found guilty and fined $50 and ,costs.
This is his third offence, but owing to
some flaw in the first •two judgments,
this had to come in as fir t offence.

School has re -opened and, like last
year, there are more pupils than can be
accommodated in the continuation class.
Thirteen were turned away and twelve
applicants refused, making, in all, 25
of an excess. Mr. Doupe, the former
principal, who was operated on for ap-
pendicitis, has not yet fully recovered,
and Mr. Isbister is in charge.
Harold Aliin and Ewert Cameron
have gone to London to take a lieuten-
ant's course, when they will enlist.
Both men will be greatly missed, as
they were possessed with musical talent
and took part in many entertainments,
besides being generally popular.
Most of the grain around here has
been garnered, and although the rain
did considerable damage, yet the farm-
ers feel the harvest has been better
than in many years: Fruit is a failure
in many lines and also potatoes are be-
ginning to rot,

LIVE STOCK M4RaETS
Toronto, Sept. 6th—Fair runs of both
cattle and sheep were received by the
local yards yesterday. Tliiiiltitipment
of other classes of stock, icularly
hogs, was light.
Choice .cattle are about steady with
last week. Several loads of good
butchers' changed hands at $8 per cwt.
This, however, was about the top
price. Gopd cows sold freely up to $7,
but a large number of the bulls shipped
ip remain unsold. Canners and cutters
are steady.
Stocker trade is again very dull,
several hundred animals being on the
market at noon, and with no buyers in
sight made future prospects for that
class of stock look rather lifeless.
Good milkers are still In demand, the
choice animals selling up to $100. The
big increase in the consumption of milk
during the Exhibition puts life into
this market.
Calves are steady at #5.50 to $11.
Heavy animals are not wanted, selling
about $1 to $2 easier. Spring lambs
are off 25c on last week's prices Choice
stuff, after culling out the poor ones,
bringing up to $8.75
Hogs remain unchanged. Only a few
small lots were handled yesterday.
Light shipments and the usual Monday
market made the packers indecisive.

has enjoyed the best of health, this
being probably the first severe illness
he has ever had.
