Halliday accompanied by some of their relatives a ride' to Blyth and back again which was very much appreciated being quite a contrast to a ride in a lumber wagon on the day of their marriage, In the evening about six o'clock dinner was served after which an address was read by D. Halliday and Mrs. D. A. Dunbar, a daughter, pre- sented the couple with a purse of gold on behalf of their chi)dren. The following is the address :— We take this opportunity vin this your fiftieth wedding anniversary to express to you in some tangible form the love and esteem in which you are held by us. We recall the many anxious hours you spent in caring for our spiritual and bodily welfare, the many hardships you endured without murmur or complaint, of the kindly assistance and advice given to us at all times. When we recall the past we would not be doing our duty, at this time, did we not do something on this the crowning day of your lives to show our appreciation of the many kind acts done for us. We would uow ask you to accept: this purse of gold ar a small token of the love and gratitude we feel toward you and our earnest wishes are that you may live many more years to enjoy the, fruits of your labors.

Then disposing of their farm he bought on the 5th line of Morrie township, Where they lived until 1904 when he agaip sold his property and moved to the village of Belgrave, where they now reside.

R. station to Vic• toria street then up Scott street then. turn up Josephine street and parade the full length to the town park so that thosq who want the best slew of the parade will have the hest oppor- tunity by stationing" themselves on the main street at any point from Wilford'a evaporator to the town park. Immediately on arrival at the park the pre g •amme will begin with the balloon ascension by Miss Dora. thy DeVerno and then will follow the remainder of the programme as ad- vertised for the day at precisely the time advertised, of course on the one condition that the weather is favor able, No programme of sports equal to this has ever been offered to the peo- ple of this part of Ontario and it is up to the natives to show their appreci. atioe by boosting the celebration in every way that lies . within their power. The park is being put in first-class shape and there will be lots of seating room. One real good day of legitimate and up-to-date pleasure is the aim of the committee and if the affair is a sutteee this year from a financial standpoint a still bigger and better programme will be put on next year. CELEBRATIONETTES. Miss DeVonda and her attendants will arrive here on Monday from Blanchardville, Wis. They will work in that town on Friday, the 20th, and after leaving here go direct to the middle states where they fill 4th of July engagements. The committee are taking no chance of disappoint- ments and hence the reason of their arrival here so soon. The fireworks arrived on Monday of this week and are certainly a big cel - lection. Manager Binkley is already getting them in shape's() as to avoid delays. Don't steal under the canvas. The committee are spending $700 to give the people a day of unusual merit. Surely you are sport enough to do the fair thing with them in their efforts to give you a good day.

This will be the only big day in Wingham this year and the commit- tee are looking for the encouragement of every loyal citizen. Robert John Plenty Deceased.

If elected I shall in the future, as in the past, do all I can to ad- vance the interests of ' the greet Province of Ontario and of North Huron in particular. As in 1911, my opponents, having been unable to indnce a resident of this Riding to oppose me, have grrne outside this Riding, and have imported a candidate from another county. Surely such a large, intelligent and influential constituency as North Huron should have as its repre- sentative in the Legislature one of its own people whose interests are in this county, and who resides in this constituency. Huron and Bruce are each, entitled to three members. Why give Bruce four members and Huron tv'o. The Government of Sir James Whitney will, beyond all doubt, be again returned to power, and it is quite reasonable to suppose that a sup- porter. of that Government, and one in friendly relations with it should be able to render more effi- cient service, than a member of the Opposition who has no inter- ests in Huron and who would nat- urally work in the interests of his own county. Again soliciting your vote, I am Faithfully yours, A. H, MUSGROVE. Come to the big celehration in Wingham on Dominion Day.
