The North Side United Church parsonage was the scene of a pret- ty wedding on Wednesday afternoon October 7t1, at 2 o'clock, when Sarah Ellen; yoiingest slaughter of Mr. and Mrs. MW. J. Slllery, became the 'bride of Mr. John W. Modeland, only son of Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Mocleland, 'Egmotdville, The-cere-• iuony was performed by Rev.' R. Ful- ton Irwin. 'The bride, who was un- attended, looked charming in an en- semble Suitof sand trientine and canton crepe, trimmed with squirrel, with blonde shoes and stockings, 'and crabapple shade hat and scarf. She had a corsage bouquet of Oph- elle roses and lily df the valley. After the wedding the bridal couple left on the afternoon train for Buffalo and points east. On their return ' they will reside 'in Egmondvillc. LIONS ARE LOOSE AGAIN, Thursday night saw the Lions as- semble for their sent' -monthly supper and sing -song. The noise issuing front the Den was sufficient proof that they all enjoyed themselves, During supper the sweet -dulcet tones of Lion Doc Mackay could be heard mingling beautifully with the Irish treble of Lion Denten, while the booming ;bass -of Lion Johnny Best was wonderfully lermiered by the shrill falsetto of 'Lion 'Ferguson. 'l'afl Twister Frank iSI'lis surprised both himself and the company with a well. rendered solo about his love and the deep blue _ sea, a ding-clong •affair. Lion Doc Beebe!), furnished a sur- prise by his accompanist perform- ance,' but. ,then Doe plays as he works, feelingly, and as in his busi- ness,•, the victim always gets a jolt. A new high level was reached when Lion John Iluggard joined in the chorus. Lion Bisson vette gave a very elusive report on the Cedar Point convention, elusive because just at the interesting parts, nteniory failed him and the company lost the lurid details of Lion Barber's in- discretions. However, the report, was' given very interested attention by all the Lions. And then they wished the official reporting job on Lion C. P. Sills hence this effort. Lintz 'Effigy Neelin was proposed but claimed his r'aw meat -days were past, and retired in favor of -a Lion inure capable of receiving brick 'bats. Then the all important question of devising ways and means of paying for .our truly great achievement, the Swimming Pool, was fully discussed. To each and every person who has had the privilege of seeing what en joyment, what real health -giving pleasure, the kiddies r f Seaforlsh had; this summer, to these onlookers came, without doubt, the thought- -the Lions of Seaforth, if they do nothing else, they have at least done this job well. Now that the dress- ing houses for boys and girls have been erected and with the trees and shrubs planted, the people generally can sec, that before very long this spot will be the brightest in our inidst, a place for real outdoor re- creation for our children and a clean, healthy acquisition to our town. It has cost money. The Lions of Sea - forth will pay what they owe, 'but it is up to the citizens to loyally sup- port thein in any effort they make to pay off the debt. So when the Euchre and Dance takes place on Oct. 12th, the Lions- confidently ex- pect a full, nay, a crowded °house. MRS. F, HOLMESTED. There 'was a large attendance at the funeral of the tate Catherine Holmested, wife of Francis Holrne- sted, K.C., whose death occurred un- expectedly at her residence in town on Thursday, Oct. 1st, from a stroke of apoplexy in her seventieth year, which took place on Tuesda • J after- noon, Oct. 6th from St, Thomas' church, of which she was a 'promi- nent member, to the Maitland - Bank cemetery. The service, which was. simple and impressive. was conduct- ed by the rector, 'Rev. 'T..H. Brown, assisted by 'Rev. Dr. 'Larkin.
