THOMPSON- PALMETER
The following report of the wed-
ding of Rev. George R. Thompson,
Kentville, N.S., son of Mr. and Mrs.
H. J. Thompson,of Goderich township
is from the Halifax Chonicle:
Kentville, July 16—A very beauti-
ful wedding was celebrated in St.
James' Anglican church here at 11.30
this morning when Ellen Constance,
younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs, A.
A. • Palmeter, of this town, became
the bride of Rev. George Robert
Thompson, rector of the church and
son of Mr. and Mrs, H. J. Thompson,
of Clinton, Ont.
The ceremony was performed' by
Rt. Rev. John Hackenley, D.D., co-
adjutor bishop of Nova Scotia. The
bride was given in marriage by her
father and was attended only by her
sister, Mrs. M. A. Shangle, as matron
of honor. The groom was attended by
his brother, Rev. John Thompson rec-
tor of Trinity church, Durham, Ont.
The twin sons of Walter Wood, Kent-
ville, acted as cushion bearers and
the ushers were G. Robert Palmeter,
brother of the bride, and Willie C.
Hiltz, Kentville. The wedding mar-,
ehes were played . by A. H. Morash,
the organist of the church, and a full
surplice choir of which the bride is
a member, sang the hymns "The
voice that breathed o'er Eden,' and'
"0 Perfect Love."
The bride lookedvery beautiful in
a gown of bride's lustrous satin trim-
med with gossamer lames laces with
a short train. Her veil was of em-
broidered silk net caught on each side
of the face with knots of orange blos-
soms. She carried a shower bouquet
of pale pink roses and lilies of the
valley tied with a bow of white tulle.
The matron of honor wore a gown
of pink organza with small, motifs
of blue forget-me-nots and a large
picture hat of pink organza trimmed
with corresponding blue, She wore
blue satin shoes and gloves and car-
ried a bouquet of pale pink sweet
peas and forget4me-noes.
The ceremony was performed be-
neath an arch of fern through which
was twined pink and white carnations
with a sprinkling of yellow and blue
larkspur and snapdragon. The 'base
of the chancel was banked with pot-
ted fern.
A brief thunderstorm accompanied
by a torrential downpour of rain,
just before the scheduled hour for the
ceremony threatened to mar the oe.
casion, but es 'though in a prophesy
for the future of the happy couple,
the skies cleared just before the ap-
pointed hour and the plans for the
happy event movedon without a
hitch.
Immediately after the service the
wedding reception was held onthe
lawn at the bride's home, the father
and mother of the bride, and Bishop
Hackenley standing with the bridal
couple as they received the congratu-
lations of the numerous friends who
gathered. The guests included the

friends of the contracting parties. At,
the reception the table decorations
were pink and white carnations and
roses in a background of baby's
breath.

THE VETERANS' PICNIC
The Veterans of Huron County
held their annual picnic at Clan Greg-
or Square yesterday, when the veter-
ans and their families from 'all over
the. country gathered to spend the day
together.
It was a fair day and the picnickers
made .it a very pleasant day as they
met and exchanged reminiscences, re
newel acquaintances with members
of each . other's families, ran off a
fine program of sports for the young-
er" members, and generally had a full
and an enjoyable afternoon together.
Each member of the company was
duly tagged, each unit .having sent
out badges to the several members
and their families, and about 650 sat
down to supper, the tables being well
supplied from the baskets brought a-
long by the ladies.
Altogether it was a most success-
ful day and much enjoyed by all pre-
sent, the only, accident marring the
day being that happening. to Jackie
Cook, grandson of Ilfr. and Mrs. J. E.
Cook, who fractured his arm when he
tumbled of the gun in the Square to
the cement base. It was an unfortu-
nate accident and regretted by all.
SHOULD IMPROVE PARE
The Thursday evening open-air
bandconcerts in Recreation park the
last two or three weeks have been
well attended and much enjoyed.
The new band stand is set about
half way between the old and the
new grandstand and the music can be
heard well from either by those who
walk out to the park while there is
plenty of parking space for cars
Without crowding.
The park, of course, is not muoh
of a place for beauty as yet, but the
grass is being kept cut and there is
no hardship in walking through it.
And it could, and if the committee
get any encouragement, it will be
improved. It will not all be done at
once, but gradually trees, shrubs and
it may be flowers, will in time help
to beautify this little bit of public
property.
Clinton •as yet, while it has been an
incorporated town for` a great many'
years, has never had a single spot to
which its citizens ran gather for an
evening's enjoyment. Unlike many
towns situated on the lake front, it
has no beach to repair to and it has
never taken the trouble to cultivate
a park, although this park` lot has
been public property for nearly three
quarters of a century.
It is too bad that nothing has ever
been done to make this park into a.
beauty spot. "It wound be too expen-,"
sive," .somebody remarks. It really
needs little but some enthusiasm.
The, Government would supply all the
trees necessary and as for shrubs,
the woods around thetown would
supply most of them and we venture
to say the owners, would; donate
them gladly. All that is required is
some enthusiastic• people, with a
guiding hand to lay out the ground
to the bestadvantage, and a small.
outlay for work.
Some folk complain about the en-
trance, but en the right there- is
the Public. Utilities property, which.
is always kept in good shape, and
to the left are the fine old willows,
growing around the ' "Pond." The.
pond is at present dry, but it is to
be hoped that it will not remain so.
If this property were added to •the
park and this pond cleaned but and
some system of drainage introduced
so that the water would not become
stagnant, the willows trimmed' up a'
little and some seatsplaced about, a
very pleasant little park could" be
made. In time this may be done,, by
doing a little each year. But, as the
chairman of, the •parkscommittee of.
the town council .,remarked, it will
never be:done unlest h startis made.

DEATH .OF MRS. HARDY
Death came very quietly and unex-
pectedly to Mrs. Hardy, wife of Mr.
T. H. Hardy, Sunday morning, when
she passed away in her sleep.
Mrs. hardy, whose maiden name
was Martha J. Campbell, had not been
in robust health for some years but
she had been in her usual health, go-
ing about her accustomed duties on
Saturday and had retired without
any complaint of feeling unwell. She
had enjoyed a little family picnic at
Bayfield on Friday 'afternoon, and
her passing• was a severe shock to
her husband, daughter and other
members of her family.
Mrs. Hardy was a daughter of the
late James Campbell and his wife,
Isabella, of West Wawanosh,inwhich
township she was born and spent
her girlhood. On Oct. Slst, 1900, she
was united in marriage to Mr, Tho-
mas H. Hardy of the Base Line,
where they settled and remained for
eleven years, coming to Clinton in
the Autumn of 1911. Her husband
and one daughter, Mrs. E. M. Thorn-
dyke ofClinton, survive, also one
little grandson, "Fred Thorndyke, ag-
ed five. Three brothers and one sister
also survive, James and William
Campbell on the old .homestead in
Wiest Wawanosh; John Campbell of
Elert Bay, B.C., and Mrs. W. C.
Nethery of East Wawanosh.
Mrs. Hardy was 'a very quiet,
home -loving woman. She was not
strong enough physically to take on
outside duties in addition to her home
duties and she conserved her strength
for the latter. She was devoted to
her husband and family.
The funeral was held on Tuesday
afternoon, a private service being
held at her late home, Frederick
street, ,conducted by the Rev. F. G.

ing the lead 7-6.
When O'Brien ,earn to bat for.
Clinton in the last of the eighth he
secured a nine single and he stole
second. Holmes crashed out a threes
base hit, scoring O'Brien. Pickett
sacrificed, scoring Holmes, and the
game was in Clinton's bag.
MacEwan, O"Brien, Holmes and
Pickett were best for Clinton, but
all played nice snappy ball. Arcli-,
er hit a smashing home run over the
left field fence for Goderich. Brant
pitched a nice game for Clinton, but
