TO CORRESPONDENTS
We -feel disposed to drop a few hints
to correspondents, regplar•and occas-
ional. We receive from` time to time
items of interest froui' other than s eg-
ular correspondents, and these, when
accompanied by the name of the sen-
der, es a guarantee of good faith, not
far .publication, are always welcome.
First amongst the things that a news-
paper' correspondent needs to remem-
ber is that news should be, sent in
when it is fresh. No editor wishes to
publish items two or three weeks old.
Sometimes, to
eine imes oblige friends'of:the
ge
paper it is done, but old news is never
welcome. . Matter should be written
legibly,' especially names, and only on
one -side of paper. Space should be
left at top, bottom and sides of page,
writing should never be crowded. No
abbreviations should be used, ape"
out each.ysord clearly?, Do not write
mysterious paragraphs, which only
the writer and one lir two others will -
understand. A newspaper belongs to
the public, not to any group or clique.
Always remember to give day and
date for every Happening. Never
write "yesterday„ or "toniorrgw."
The 'editor often uses these terms but
withan editor "today" is the day the
paper is published, no matter what
day the matter is written.
A report of a wedding was sent in
not long ago in which the date had
been left out. Fortunately we could
call up one .of the interested parties
and get the necessary date, but such
an omission is often the cause of de-
lay and annoyance. Do not exagger-
ate any item, just give the plain facts
in an interesting way. A newepaper
eorresponEient is an ilftportant person
and, should appreciate the dignity of
his position, He is interpreting his
eommuaity to the outside world. He
should do it eonscientiously and truly,
knowing that he is not only serving
the paper to which he .contributes but
the community in which he lives and
also the circle of readers who look
for his "stuff" each week and who are
disappointed when it does not appear,
The News -Record kis a very fine
ataf ' of correspondents, who contrib-
ute 'i alucible natter and whose work
is appreciat'ed not only by us but by
the readers• of the paper generally.
We also appreciate the items sent in
by occasional writers, when something
of interest comes under their notice,
We hope they will•,keep up the good
work.
SCHWARZ-EA'GLESON.
From a recent issue of the Aber-
deen.Morning American, Aberdeen, S.
Dak., we clip the following report of
the wedding of the grand -daughter of
Mr. James Stevens of town and the
cousin of Mr. J. L. Heard, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. W. Eagleson:
"One. ,of the prettiest and most
charming brides of the season opened
a new Chapter in the book of life yes-
terday morning at 11:00 o'clock when
.Miss Alma Eagleson, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William Eagleson, 903
South Jay street, was united in mar-
riage to. Mr. Carl Schwarz of Fargo;
North Dakota. The ceremony was
performed in the living room of the.
bride's home before a gorgeous bank
of salmon -pink gladioli and other rare
and beautiful garden a •den .f!
ewers wliienr.
were suffused with the eastern light
of morning. '
Reverend Mr. P. 0.,Bunt officiated,
Mrs, F. G. Gorden, sister of the groom,
played Mendeissohn's "Spring Song,"
at 'the opening of the ceremony and
Luella Eagleson, sister of the bride,
sang "Calm as the Night," Mrs My -
eon Nickerson, also sister of the
groom, sang. "When You ate Truly
Mine;" as a closing not of joy. The
bride earried a• huge arm bouquet of
Ophelia roses.
A ,wedding luncheon was- served at
noon to thirty guests of the young
couple. The tables were decorated in
ivory and green, using ivory candles,
in green holdersa and dainty -place
cards and nut baskets designed and -
painted
ndpainted, by the bride's own artistic
hand in the same colors.
Early in the afternoon Mr. arid
Mrs. Schwarz left for Big Stone City
by ear where they will enjoy the
lakeresort life at Ifuedering Cot-
tage, Chautauqua Park, for about
two weeks. They will then go to
Fargo, N. leak., to visit with the.
parents of the 'groom and thence to
Amherst, S. D to make their hone
forthe following year,
Mrs. Schwn% is well known Own t0
Aberdeen people, having graduated
from Central High,schoolin 1922 and
from the college in 1926. During, her
senior year at the college she was
studentassistant in the art 'depaFG-
ni.ent and the past year she has been
assistant professor of art, handling
many very inteieeting and progres-
sive classes. Miss Eagleson's leaving
is a real loss to the school as she has
always given invaluable help hi all
departments with her, willing and ar-
tistic brush aunl pen. • The 1926 and
1927:Pasques were made most beau-
tiful by the aid of her art work and
pageants and Gypsy Days have been
made more beautiful by her ardent
interest in the "progress of her Alma
Mater. Beaux Arts and many other
clubs :will greatly miss Alma in their
work next year.

VETERAN OF THE ROAD.
A number of citizens went down to
the station on Friday morning to see
old No. 269, a veteran G.T.R. engine,
the old-fashioned wood -burning style,.
one of the first to run on theline be-
tween Goderich and Stratford, . come
in on its way to Goderichto take
part in the Centennial Celebration of
the CountyTown.
The old engine, "Trevethick" is her
name, by the way, looked all spick
and span, having been painted and
polished, up, she and the old-fashioned
coaches site hauled, to take' part in
the Diamond Jubilee Celebration in
Ottawa recently, and she looked as if
she were fully .aware of her import -
geed.
The crew *in charge were ell old
railroad men, J. Collinson, honorary
conductor, who is now retired after
over forty years' service; G. Jeffrey,
the honorary engineer, who entered
the service in 1872; Albert Cox, the
baggage span, and Srakeisstm 3'. Stew-
art.
Aboard were other old railroad nen,
Superintendent W; J. Piggott being
among them.,
OLD BUILDING BURNED.
Fire of an unknown origin, the
building being unoccupied, practically
destroyed -the old frame building itt
the north side of Huron street belong-
ing to the Worthington estate in the
early- hours of yesterday morning.
The fire had got quite a start be-
fore the alarm was given and the
firemen had to, haul the hose wagon
by hand to the scene of the fire, no
team being available, The building
being old and built of inflameble
material the fire made rapid progress,
but the firemen soon had it under eon-
trol when water Isis available, and
the old w9Pden structure beside it,
used by D: Say as a paint shop, built
so close that the water from the roof
of the one runs into the eve of the
other, was scarcely scorched. The un-
occupied brick house belonging to
Miss Websterl on the other side, un-
less the heat Harmed . it, was un-
touched.
These three wooden structures in
the middle of the town have been
something of a fire risk for some
time. They have stood there since the
time when Huron street, instead of
AIbert
was the '
main m business street,

HAD A FALL.
Mt•. A,o T.
C oiler -got a hoes shakingup' the; other day when he fell over a
bad piece of sidewalk on the west side
of the postoffice. He was walking
along, with an armful of papers, talk-
ing to and watching a little boy on a
dray on the street, when his foot
caught a projection of .the -uneven
walk and he fell to, the roadway, cut-
ting his face, and injuring his left
hand.. He wasat once taken . to the
office of Dr, Shaw, 'who fixed up his
wounds. He felt rather shaken yes-
terday but it is hoped he will soon be
his own man again.
SAW DEER ON ROAD.
While driving up. from London the
other clay Mr. W. J. Plumsteel and
family saw a fine, large red deer on
the rend between Exeter and Hensen.
The animal came out of a field at ane
side of the • road, taking the fence
with the greatest ease, trotted along
the road a short distance, and then
jumped the fence on the other side.
This was not So good a .fence, a deep
ditch being on this side, and the deer
missed its footing and fell, rolIinh
over a time or two. But it jumped
to its feet again and trotted off to.
wards a wood
QUEER POTATOES.
Some curious potatoes were dug
in Mrs. John 1ticPhee's garden the
other day. Nice -sized little new po-
tatoes had been putting out sprouts,
some of these sprouts having other
little potatoes at the end, which in
turn were ' putting out new -sprouts.
Looked as if they intended having a
continuous crop• The original potato
was still young, the skin being soft
enough to scrape off.
'Twould be great if one could' de-
velop a potato • that would not need
planting every year, but would just
grow a continuous ',crop of tubers.
