ORUICKSHANH-BAIRD
The home of the Rev. A. A. Hohnes
Rattenbury street, on Saturday,
March 30th, at eleven o'clock, was the
'scone of a' quietbut pretty event
when Miss Dorothy, second daughter
of Ma and Mrs. Robert Baird,Blyth,
h
,
was unitedinmar' ` t N r. James
t Hage o I a
Cruickshank, youngest son of Mr. and
Mrs. Geo. Cruickshank, Winghan.
The bride, "who was unattended,
loloked dainty, gowned in a Paris blue
chiffdn taffeta dress, With,uneven
hemline,: and carried a boquet of,
sweetheart roses and fern. Her coat
-was Paris blue chiffon velvet, with
shawl collar of white, swansdown,
Blue kid pomps, blue .hat, purse and
hoes completed1eted her costume: 'Her
go-.ing -away costume was Frenh beig
tailored coat with hat and shoes in
contrasting colours. •
After the cerentotny the young cou-
ple left on the noon train for a few
northern paints.
SOME LARGE EGGS
Mr. Edward Carter brought into
The News -Record office the other day
a goose egg, which some friend had
given him as an Easter offering,
which weighed 1114 ounces and meas-
ured '9x131/.1 inches. It was a large
egg and ought to have made a man-
sized meal for even a hungry man on
Easter morning.
R. II. Johnson, who makes a
bit of a hobby of chicken -raising re-
ports that a pullet of his, of the Jer-
sey Black Giant breed, hatched last
May, laid the other day no egg 'Which.
measured 6'h x9 inches.
Anc!ther hen egg was brought in
to this office, by a man who does not
wish his naive mentioned, which
measured 6r/1x7,4, not a bad size,
either. And, in view of the fact that
the last-mentioned egg was presented
to the editor, as a contribution to
Eastertide feasting, we are inclined
to award to it the prize. The others
looked all right, but the proof of the
pudding is not in looking at it, as all
will agree. This last was a great egg.
