FROM ICAILIFORNIA
Miss Vin Buchanan and M'iss La-
nes :Buchanan, of Fresno, California,
were here on Tuesday on their wayto
see the farm once owned by their
grandfather at Chiselhurst. They were
returning by motor from a trip to
New York. Their mother had been
Agnes Wren, daughter of Mr. 'Thom-
as Wren, who was married at Ohisel-
hurst to Robert Buchanan, also of the
district, and the young married couple
had gone to California shortly` after
e the Americana Civil .War. Miss Lillias
h_ Buchanan recalled having, been in
s !Seaforth when she was four years of
age, accom'p'anying her father on a
d visit,
A LONG TRIP
An interesting canry-all passed
through Seaforth an, Wednesday' on
its way to Ottawa from Goderich. T,t
'was a 112,000 bb. truck,"bearing five
men and a woman and five race
horses, hailing from ,Lumsden, Sask.,
the firm being known as Gibbs Bras,
and J, W. Kealey. They covered the
111950 miles to Goder'irih in four -'days
in transit and 2% days stopped, a
total orf seven days. 'They had two
horses entered ss the . civic holiday
races at the county town,' but the
horses were still fired from the long
journey and captured only one prize.
One of the horses in the carry -all
claims Z02 as its time. The tru'c'k was
nearly as ,big as a box car and was
equipped with living ap!artmenits and
stalls. The men said they always re-
moved the horses at night from the
truck to sleep.

The
WEDDING GIFT
of today

fine old family heirloom, passed down
through generations. It may be delicate china, a.
flashing jewel, or age-old silver, but to the bride
it is priceless because it symbolizes the traditions.

come the heirloom of future generations. So no.
matter what you pay, select a gift whose beauty
will last through the years.
The wedding gifts we're showing are the kind
