Per - leer weather supplanted the th-aton- mg elements in she afternon and yup - refine success crowned the clay's pro- gram, While the attendants were confined more or less to the pavilion by the damp atmosphere, this was One of the deciding factors in the day's success since it was easier to meet relative's. "Barnyard goad" and soft ball were the popular games in- troduced by the program committee. Races were run by old and young. The presentation of awards 'co those deserving of special recognition was a pleasing feature of the Jay. l'i±rs. Rheinhardt Gehl, the eldest woman on the grounds, was presented with a basket of roses, and little Kenneth Swartz received a baby pin for being the youngest member present. A dis- appointing feature of the day was the inability of Mrs. Rebecca Woods, the oldest living member of the fam- ily, to attend. In view of the fact that this was the first reunion, no re- cord of the family history was avail- able. A short resume was given, how ever. of how fleet brothers and two sisters cane to Canada with their mother in 1836 and laid the founda- tion for the Woods family. Tribute was paid 'to members of the family who hadiyen their lives in the Great Wan Many sons enlisted in the great conflict and many of chem failed to return. The loyalty of the family to Canada was seen further by the announcement that of 800 family members, only 20 had left Canada to go to the United States. The following centres were repre- sented at the reunion: Waterloo; Kitcheener;, Walton; Galt; Brussels; Oakland; New Hamburg; Toronto; Innerkip; Wingham; Tavistock; Bright; Forest; Ingersoll; Beams- vilc; West Montrose; Plattsville,; Exeter; Ahnonte; Mildmay; Elmira; Odessa, Saskatchewan; Indian Head, Saslnitthewan; Orillia; Hanover; Wroxeter; Hespeler; Blair and Park- hill.

Latest Harold Llody Comedy Sets Fast Pace. Fast and furious is an expression that catoies little weight any longer, owing to its misuse by motion picture press agents, but nothing more aptly describes Harold Lloyd's newest pro- duction "Speedy" which comes to the Grand Theatre next Monday for a 3 -day showing. From start to finish it is literally a whirlwind of comedy, as the name applies. Lloyd, as the breezy character of a New York boy, whose principal vocation is losing jobs, gives one of his most likeable characterizations, and in addition has a story that is appealing, as well as based on facts. Lloyd has a variety of positions in "Speedy" ranging from soda porker, to the chauffeur of a horse car, with a taxicab pilot, and several others sandwiched in between. Finding new fields of comedy is .a job worthy of the sturdiest pioneer, MARRIED BLAIR—WIT.SQN.—In St. John's Anglican Ohnrelr, Iudien head, Sask., on June 00th, 1525, Dr, Allan W, Blair, second son of Mrs, Iiintr met 1118 ata 6,1V, Blair, 11. 0., to Florence M.

Its comedy is the kind that knows no nationality, and while typically American, and ;New'York in particular, will be just !as popular in London as it will be in Manhattan.
