Mackie—Bailey,—A v ery pretty
wedding took place on Wednesday,
September 6th, at the home of Mr,
and Mrs. Wilmore Scott, when Miss
Eva Kathleen Bailey, became the
bride of Mr. James Elroy Mackie, only
son of Mr. and Mrs, James Mackie,
of Workworth. The ceremony was
performed by Rev. J. A. Ferguson,
under an arch of evergreens, prettily
decorated with pink and white cosmos.
The bride, who was given away by
Mr. Wilmore Scott, looked charming
in white georgette crepe, over white
silk, with veil set with pearls, and
carried a bouquet of white asters.
The bridesmaid, Miss Beatrice Frost,
was gowned in a mauve organdie with
hat to match, and carried a bouquet
of mauve and white asters. Mr.
Matthew Beattie acted as bestman,
and little Ruth Scott made a charm-
ing flower girl, dressed in pink
organdie and carrying a basket of
pink asters. The wedding march was
played by Miss Essie Dorrance and
during the signing of the register,
Mrs. Ferguson sang "Because." The
home was prettily decorated in pink
and white. The bride received many
pretty and useful gifts. Mr. and
Mrs. Mackie left on a short honey-
moon trip, the bride travelling in a
navy tricotine suit with hat to match.
On their return the happy couple will
reside on the groom's farm near
Workworth.

Sudden Death.—Mr. Ephraim Hew-
itt, of town, was stricken suddenly
on Tuesday about noon with heart
trouble and passed away within a
short time. Mr. Hewitt, although not
well, was up and around as usual
and he was outside when stricken.
He had been troubled with his heart
for a number of years. About 2years
ago he suffered a paralytic stroke
and since that time he has not en-
joyed good health. His age was 68
years, eight months and one day. He
was born near Kitchener. For a
number of years he farmed near An-
derson, later moving to the fourth
line, Blanshard. About nine years
ago he moved to Exeter, where he has
been highly respected as a citizen
and made many friends. He is sur-
vived by his bereaved widow, whose
maiden name was Sarah Fulton, and
five children, three daughters and
two sons, Mrs. William Lamport, of
London; Mrs, H. Rowcliffe and Mrs.
Charles Godbolt, of town; Austin, of
Detroit, and Percy, of town. The
funeral was held on Thursday after-
noon, interment in the Exeter ceme-
tery.
Fifty Years In Business.—Mr. Jas.
Dignan last week celebrated his 60th
year in the blacksmithing business
in Exeter. Sixty-five years ago Mr.
Dignan learned his trade in the same
place that he now owns. After learn-
ing his trade he left town and for
fifteen years he worked in London,
Tilsonburg, Hamilton and other plac-
es. Fifty years ago he returned and
he and his brother, John, went into
the blacksmithing and woodworking
business, For several years he con-
ducted a shop on Main Street south
of the Ross Taylor Co. Later he
bought out the shop of Richard Davis
and afterwards that of Mr. Bucking-
ham where he and his son Ed. are now
located. Mr. Dignan has been a
faithful worker and has missed very
few days from work in that long
period. His many friends hope to
see him enjoy many more days of
health and happiness.

The School Fair.—The third annual
rural schonl fair, under direction of
the department of agriculture, was
held on Friday of last week under
ideal summer skies and with a record
breaking crowd in attendance. Young
and old alike turned out to enjoy
the exhibits, which the prize list
shows was a very great success. Much
enjoyment was taken out of a guess-
ing contest held on the weight of a
5 -months -old pig owned by Master
Freddie Foist. The idea was to see
who was hest judge of the weight of
the porker, the honors going equally
to Miss Lily Fabner and Mr. Christian
Rau, they being only one pound out.
The schools engaged in the exhibits
were Nos. 2, 3, 5, 6 and 14, all of
Stephen Township. No. 1 achooi did

Public Meeting. — Dr. McKenzie
Smith, accompanied by Nurse Camp-
bell, have been visiting our schools
in this neighborhood. They are act-
ing for the Government under the
Educational Department in examin-
ing the pupils as to their physical
condition with particular attention
given to examination of their eyes,
nose and throat and cases calling for
treatment are to be paid for by the
parents, but should they be' unable
under financial difficulty to do so, the
Educational
Department in this con-
nection will give such case or cases
their attention ,and thus often by
quite simple operations, or other re-
quired attention, the lives of children
are spared, and their lives made
much happier and more endurable
somewhat under the old adage, "That
a stitch in time saves nine." On
Tuesday evening Dr. McKenzie Smith
addressed a public meeting in the
town hall, in which she dwelt very
fully and ably with regards to the
diseases and troubles to which chil-
dren attending our schools, were af-
fected and measures devised for cop-
ing with such troubles. Rev. Rivers
of the Methodist church opened the
meeting by a short address, in which
he explained the work in which Dr.
McKenzie Smith and Miss Campbell,
