Peters, was united in marriage to Willitun Mulholland, of 'Walton, the marriage being perfoTmed by Rev. Mr. Stafford. The bride and groom of 50 years ago were atter.ded by Minnie Mitchell, now Mrs. Ben Cole, of Clinton, and H. B. Peters, brother of the bride. On May 24th, 1926, at their home in Hohnosyille, Mr .and Mts. Mul- holland celebrated their golien wed- ding. Mr. NIulholland's parents livgd near Seaforth. Mrs. Mulholland's father, Dr. James Peters, was a surgeon in the Crimean War and 'Florence Nightingale was his assisting nurse, and he named his daughter after her at Florence Nightingale's request. Mr. Mulholland's grandfather, Wil- liam Small, was one of the earliest pioneer settlers around Hohnesville. In 1833 he and his wife came from Toronto to Goderich Twp. and settled in the wilderness on the "Crown Land" farm, later known as the Mc- Leod property, and at present owned by Michael Flick, on the Huron Road West. The journey was not made in those days in an automobile but in an ox -cart, taking a week or more to make the trip. Those were the good old days, f or the first morning after they settled on their farm they enjoyed a breakfast of fine speckled trout caught in the stream that flow' ed through their farm. Mr. Small in later days was manager of the Piper's Flour mill, the first flour mill in Goderich, owned by the Canada Co. Mr. Small was a man of ,avoirdu- pois, weighing around 250 pounds. At that titre the land on which the GoderIch Court House now stands was swampy ground. Among the pioneers of those days were the Ach- esons, the Holmes, the Rutledges and the Fords. Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland have en- joyed happiness and prosperity through all the years. Their home has been blessed by a family of six children„ one son, Harvey, deceased. The remaining five are: Mrs. W. R. Cole, of Winnipeg; Mrs. Gibson and MOS. Draper, of Detroit; Fred G., on the farm, Huron Road West; John F. in the garage business, Holmes- ville. They have sixteen grandchild- ren and three great-grandchildren living. The two sons, Fred and John, someoell 513aAvram' J,J 4 4:6 .

G.A.Deadnian and their families, had their wedding dinner with the bride and groom of flfty years ago, and the parents had their two daughters from Detroit to visit them on Sunday, May 30th. Mr. Mulholland has a wonderful memory and recalls many interesting and amusing incidents from pioneer days. As a boy he saw the first C. N. R. engine passing through Holmes- ville to Goderich. Ha relates that the church seats in those days were so high that as a boy he could scarce - see over them to view the minis- ter. Up the aisles, uprights 2x4 in. were fastened to the seats and can- dles placed on the top of them to light the church. Mr. Mulholland also remembers being trimmed to the tune of the hickory stick for playing hookey. They have many relics in their home' of former days, being posses- sors of one of the oldest candlesticks used in Goderich township, and they still have the beautiful walnut, cane - bottomed parlor chairs belonging to Mr. Mulholland's mother. 111r. Mulholland has been the "Vil- lage Blacksmith" for forty years in Holmesville, coming here on New Year's Day, from Walton in 1886, where he had already spent fifteen years at his trade. He has been an artisan of the first order and has an joyed the well -merited patronage of the residents of the community and is still practising his trade as occas- ion demands. He has two old anvils, no longer flat, but well hollowed out by the constant fashioning of the metals upon them. Both Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland are held in high esteem by members of the community. In times of sickness and trouble Mrs. Mulholland has al- ways been one of the "ministering angels" who has given her efhcient services gladly and willingly. Both are enjoying good health. Both are still young in spirit, and the sincere wishes of their many friends are ex- tended that they may still be spared to enjoy many years of life togetheg.

Craze Over Old Violins. Requests for information relative to violins which owners believe to bave been made by Stradivari, have become so numerous that one New York house uses a form -letter an- swering questions. Thousands if im- itations of -the work of Cremona's great violin maker were put out while he was alive and others have since followed. With only a few hundred of his instruments regostee- ed, the violM expert quickly reeog. nizes a Stradivarius through its fine workmanship, material and tone. Actual Taxable Value. 111 an article published in the Ap- ril number of the Municipal World, it, says that "the actual taxable value of property is the rental value," Capitalize your rental and you have your "actual value." There may be and quite probably is another "cost price," and even a "selling price" but the actual value of land is the rental capitalized. K. W. McKay, county clerk of Elgin, is editor of the Municipal World, and is recognzed , as one of the leading authorities on municipal law in the province. While the above may put a new construc- tion on the assessment law, we are willing to accept 111 11 Mr. McKay has so decided. Newspapers and the Community. Old Buck, field manager of the Nebraska Press Association, contri- butes the following to the United States Publisher:—The greatest pub- lic utility in the world is the country newspaper. It is privately owned and whatever little profit it may make goes to private ownership. But in a larger sense the paper belongs to the community. It serves the en- tire community; it cannot prosper unless the entire community prospers even more than it does. When a community, through spite or indif- ference, fails to support its news- papers it is causing some loss to the owner of the paper, but it is causing a greater loss to itself. WHO'S OUT THE DOLLAR? A man wanted it ticket to a cer- tain town and only had a two dollar bill. It required three dollars to get the ticket. He took the two dol- lar bill to a pawn shop and pawned it for 31.50. On his way back to the depot he met a friend to whom. he sold the pawn ticket for $1.50. That gave him three dollars for his ticket, Now who's out the dollar? e,sieS THE WIDEST RIVER The river with the widest mouth Is the Amazon, which is more than 100 miles across.
