ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE
Alfred Ducharme, Correspondent
Yours truly and Mrs. Du-
charme returned front Wind-
sor an Sunday after spending
a few days previous to the
wedding of their granddaugh-
ter. Miss Jane Masse, and Mr,
William Borre, of that city.
'They returned with Mr. and
Mrs. Avila Ducharme and their
son, who had also attended the
wedding and the reception
which took place •on Saturday
last.
Mr. and Mrs. Morris Durand,
of the 14th concession, were
Sunday visitors with Mr. and
Mrs. Dolph Sopha, of this high-
way.
From Grand Bend, visitors
with Mr. and Mrs. F. Ducharme
on Monday were Mr. and Mrs.
L. P. Ducharme and family.
On Saturday last Mr. and
Mrs. Dolph Sopha were visitors
with Mr. and Mrs. Harry Del-
trich and family on the Goshen
Line south.
Last week we told you the
mail was carried by David
Spencer. an early settler who
had settled, new St. Joseph,
and at his retirement his son
Samuel took over the mail and
farm business..
In the days before the found-
ing of the new village of St.
Joseph the name of the post
office was Johnson's Mill, tak-
ing its name from the Johnson
:family who had the water power
sawmill a half mile south of
St. Joseph and that along the
lake at the mouth of what was
known as Hyrock Creek. For
the building of the mill, piles
were driven into the ground
instead of frame work to nail
boards to. Until recently some
of these piles could be seen and
perhaps today some would be
visible,
Besides the Johnsons, who
run the mill, a few close -by
citizens were employed helping
the family budget to carry on.
We have been told the pay for
those days was encouraging for
them, receiving the price of
three shillings for a day's pay.
Those who return to their na-
tive birth place at this present
time, comparing their day's pay
of that time with that of today.
To them it seems unbelievable
the change which took place
during their absence. On their
return, looking back at the
many changes which had taken
place in the surroundings of
their boyhood days. It is hard
for them to come to any decis-
ion how the many changes could
take place in just a few dec-
ades past, and for those who
had been a longer time away
from their native land found
the changes greater, especially
in the dressing apparel of men
and women.
Men, half a century ago, wore
colarless shirts, in place they
attached a celluloid collar to
make it more attractive. Also
wearing for dress coats, they
wore the swallow -tail fashion,
and cuffless pants. Women
also had their style, those with
fair means wore the manufac-
aured make, which fit well to
the place it was intended for,
and which fitted well. But
those who could not afford
buying the ready-made ones
made their own

Married At St. Boniface Church
SOUDANT—BANNISTER
Elizabeth Anne Bannister and
Frank Gerard Soudant exchang-
ed marriage vows in St. Boni-
face Church, Zurich, on Satur-
day, September 10, 1966 at 3:00
p.m. Celosia in autumn colors
formed the setting, and Rev.
Father Page officiated for the
double -ring ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. John E. Bannis-
ter, Little Current, and form-
erly of Zurich, and the groom
is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
Theodore H. Soudant, Zurich.
Given in marriage by her
father, the bride looked lovely
in a floor length sheath wed-
ding .gown of delicate white
chantilly lace over champagne
chiffon. The sleeveless bodice
featured a deeply scooped neck-
'line and gently fited waist.
Elegance was portrayed in the
full-length coat of champagne
chiffon which was sleeveless
and fashioned in a cardinal
style and cascaded into a ma-
jestic cathedral train. To com-
plete her bridal outfit, the bride
wore a tiara of shimmering
crystals, over which she wore
a capucine hood of the same
champagne chiffon, in flatter-
ing softness. The bride carried
a cascading bouquet of white
gardenias.
Miss Mary Bannister was her
sister's maid of honor, and she
wore a floor -length gown of
Kelly green chiffon. A capelet
of chiffon delicately covered
the shoulders while the gown
was a sheath with empire waist.
The empire line was accented
by darker green weivet ribbons.
To add a final touch to her en-
semble she wore a matching
Kelly green rosette headpiece
touched with a flattering cock-
tail veil. She carried a cas-
cading bouquet of mums in au-
tumn shades.
Bridesmaids, Mrs. Sarah Jane
Meisner, Cochrane, Ontario, sis-
ter of the bride, and Mrs. Lisa
Regier, Toronto, Ontario, sister
of the groom, were identically
gowned to the maid of honor.
Jim Consitt was groomsman
and Hank and 'Gus Soudant,
brothers of the groom, ushered
guests.
Mrs. Milton Oesch provided
the wedding music.
A reception was held in the
Dashwood Community Centre.
For receiving guests the bride's
mother chose a bonded A-line
wool dress of autumn orange
with brown accessories. A cor-
sage of tinted white and orange
carnations completed her en-

After a two-week wedding
trip to Cape Cod, Mass., the
couple will reside at RR 1,

You could label this week's
column "things to come to your
television screen". The new TV
season is with us and we have
' had the opportunity of seeing
the latest offerings on the three
American and two Canadian
networks.
So, what's new in program-
ming? Not much, really. We
still have comedies, westerns,
mysteries, documentaries and
newscasts. The one thing that
IS new for Canadian is color.
It's here and it's tremendous.
I dare anyone to ask their local
TV dealer to put a color set in
Legion Ladies
Legion Ladies' Auxiliary re-
sumed their meetings Tuesday
evening with Mrs. Harold Camp-
bell, president, in the chair.
A bowling team was named
to go to the bowling tourna-
ment at Wingham this month.
Plans were laid for the 17th
birthday party :to be observed
in October when other auxiliary
groups will be special guests.
Their centennial project was
discussed, with plans to be an-
nounced later. Bingo was play-
ed and a pot -luck lunch served.
BRIDAL SHOWER
A miscellaneous shower was
held at the home of Miss Sharon
Regier for her sister, Miss
Marie Regier, on Sunday after-
noon, September 11.
Marie received many very
lovely gifts, with about 40
friends present.
Lunch was served by the,
hostess, Miss Sharon Regier.
the living room for a ten-day
trial (even five days) and you'll
never go back to black and
white. It's beteg than the down-
town theatres, because it's in
your own home.
So much for color. What
about things to conte? 'Televis-
ion has done just about every-
thing you can think of, All
types of dramas, comedies, mys-
teries, suspense shows, on -the -
spot news events, US Senate
investigations, interviews with
presidents, statesmen, prosti-
tutes, homosexuals and drug
addicts . inaugurations of
all types; the funeral of a presi-
dent; and astronauts in action
. you name it, television
was there.
So, what's left? I can think
of one spectacular that will cer-
tainly be covered "live" and in.
color by television.
If it doesn't happen during
the third world war, it certain-
ly will take place during the
fourth one. You will be able
to sit in your living room and
watch the war "in action". Im-
agine seeing your loved ones
killed before your eyes. Un-
believable? Not Really. It may
not happen in our time, but our
children, or our children's chil-
dren, will experience it.
I'll bet on it.
