'In, the Sabbath • school of First Presbyterian Church her 'work was much appreciated, while the fine ex- ample oJ-aroble womanhood site at all tithes held before bee friends and cam- paion's has been an influence for good which will continue down through the, years, 'While we regret her depart- ure nevertheless her home townv ure from o we. are proud to send her forward into new circles as a type of the per - feet young woni'ae. A hest of good wishes .follow Mr. and Mrs. Calder to their' new home in St Catharines, LAWRENCE MET.VITI;E, Mr, Lawrence Melville, a resident of Se'afo'rth for nearly forty ye'a'rs, passed away at his home on Tuesday after- noon, July 31. For seven years he had been in poor health and on Mon- day last suffered another paralytic stroke which' soon brought to a ,close a long and useful life. Mr, Melville Was very well known and greatly re- spected in town and his -home district of Londesboro. Born 79 years ago, ,on of the late Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence 4lelviile,.in the .village of Brooklet, north, of Whitby, he came' when a young boy with his parents;. to Hul- lett Township, With. the exception of the ,Hamilton 'family, they were the first te, settle in the 'dietriet and built r• sawmill and grist mill on the Mait- land ' near Londesboro. He operated the mill until moving to Seaforth fortyyears ago.

Thursday, August 9th, the Lions Club purposes holding its annual swimming meet for the youngsters and garden party for the elders. The funds realized will go towards paying for the necessary repairs trade to the park this year and any balance will be used for the benefit of the whole com- munity. Every effort is being made to have this day the• Red Letter Day for the kid'dies and young people of our town, and the disinterested work clone so far by members oaf the Lions Club should merit the commendation of every -eight -thinking citizen of •Sea - forth. One needs' only to go down to our swimming pool any of these hot summer elays and there be convinced that if the Lion's never do anything else, they have at least done one thing that is sblessing to the ,community and .a boon to all aur youngsters. Oc- casionaly one hears some adverse criticism to the effect that the public pays for all this supposedly gift work of the Lions Club, For the informa- tion of such critics, the annual state- ment just issued shows that the thirty members of the Club contri'liuted per- sonally more money than was derived from all the amusements ,put on by the Cltrb last year. The critics, too, in some instances, imagine: that the Lion members have a fine time at their luncheons at some body else's expense. Each and every Lion pays for Ifs own luncheon every time it is served. And hence the people of Sea - forth serve their own interests wheu they rally to the support of the Club, for it has done much and is willing to do more. The Executive, therefore, hope that on Thtresday, August 9th, the good people of Seaferth and .dis- trict well show their appreciation and favour the Lions Club with the great- est reatest crowd to date at. our Lions Park,. ARCH I;IiALD-KINDREE. A very pretty wedding was solemn- ized at the Rorie of Mr. and Mrs, John -Kindree on Tuesday afternoon, July 24th, when their only daughter. 'Doris Pearl, was united in marriage to Mr. Frederick Archibald, former principal of the Jarvis High" school and young- est son of Mr. and lvfrs. Andrew Arch- ibald, of Seaforth, Ont. The ceremony was .performed by the Rev. P. E. Deeth, of 'Wesley United Church.

The bride entered the drawingroonl on the -arm of her father to strains of wedding music played by Miss Meta MacMurchy, Miss Mabel' Johnson and Mr. A. Ed- ward Archibald, (brother of the groom,. acted as witnesses. Mrs. Kindree, mother of the :bride, was charming in a goavn of champagne •flat crepe and Mrs. Archibald, mother of the groom, very chaste in brown silk with lace trimming. rooms were tastefully Y decorated with pink and red rambler roses and ferns. After the ceremony a very dainty luncheon was served to about 24 guests, the 'bride's table be- ing decorated with roses and the beau- tiful wedding cake with trimitiing of liy of the valley and silver wedding bells. The groom's gift to the bride was a chest of Adapts 'Community Sil- ver, to the pianist a gold bar pin. Amid showers of confetti the happy couple left on a motor trip to Phila- delphia and Southern points, the bride travelling in blue coat with chic felt hat, On their return they will' reside at I3allville, Ont. The best wishes of the Jarvis community go with this very popular 'young couple.—Jarvis Record. TO HOLD LABOR DRAY CELEBRATION A meeting was held in the Town Hail bre Thursday afternoon cast when- preliminary arrangements were made for a celebration to mark the completion of the paving of the Hur- on Road and at the same time come memorate the opening of the Huron Road through' the virgin forest one hundred years ago. Invitations will be sent to Premier Mackenzie Kieg, Hon, G. Howard Ferguson, Premier of Ontario, and Hon, Geo, M. Henry, Minister of .Higliwens. As only s ightly over a' mile of pavement re- • n mains to be laid it is certain the road 4 between Sea$ort'h and Clinton will be i ready for use by the end of August and the date of the celebration was set for Labor Day, One of the 'families whose name will be honored will be the VanEg- nionds, it being the elder VanEgmond who had charge of the Canada Com parry when the road was first laid out. local history recalls that he was the first man to produce wheat in this section of the country, The delegates from the various municipalities put •forth a numlber of suggestions at the meeting, over which Mayor Andrew, of Stratford, presided, and T. R. Orr acted as sec- retary, Mr. Oras duties being added to before the meeting closed by the additional work of treasurer, Mayor Arthur Mutton, of Mitchell, in discussing the pioneers of ..the district, to whom., honor should be paid, drew attention to the record of the Hicks family in Mitchell, For 53 years between father and 'son, ,they had charge of the•poet-oefice in that town, His suggestion was that a cairn, similar to those which are to be placed at parlous places on the high- way, should be ,put up in Mitchell, I't' was explained that the first cairn on the highway would be placed a short distance east of Shakespeare to the memory of the Frydogel family. Mr. Orr said he had taken the matter of .these historical cairns up with the Minister of Highways. Mr. Henry had replied that the Highways Department had never considered it- self called upon to finance these, it be- ing his opinion that they should be looked after by the districts through which they passed. It was suggested that it would be a suitable thing to place a wreath on the grave of Dr, Dunlap at Goderich, who was one of the Canada Company of- ficials: the historical side of the cate- iir'a,tion should be emphasized as much as possible. Efforts will be put forth to have the event ,given as much historical prom- inence as possib•le in the churches of the district on the previous Sunday. 'Considerable discussion centred around the style of cairn to be built at various points; reference was made several times to the one recent- ly unveiled in honor of the Seebach fanitily, that being regarded as a very ,suitable type. Figures will be secur- ed regarding the cost of placing a bronze tablet in these in place of the marble. A tentative suggestion was made that the ;ceremonies should start east of Shakespeare about 9 o'clock in the morning on L'abor Day, then proceed to Stratford, and from there on to Goderich, making stops at the various centres and locatigns wbere caihns are placed. The people from the west Will attend and Join the parade as it heads toward G'od'erich, taking bands along with .then for the final wind-up at Goderich at the evening perform - The Secretary was instructed to is- sue invitations to the Premier -.of the Dominion, Premier of Ontario, Hon. George Henry, Hon. R. B. Bennett, Col, Otter, H'on. James Malcolm, Hon. W. D. Euler, the members of Parliament and Legislature for the Counties of Perth and Huron, the Mayors and Reeves of the various me nicipalities, and the Wardens: In order to make the celebration as notable as possible all along the route, Dr. Mackay, o'f Seaforth, sug- gested that there should be prizes awarded for a competition for the best -decorated farm entrances along tine road. This suggestion was adopt- ed. Int order to have money for the initial expenses it was decided to ask the city council for $26, towns and townships for $10, The committee will meet in Seaforth on each. Tuesday evening at 7 o'clock until the time for the celebration. Those in attendance were—Goder- ich: Mayor MacEwan, Reeve Turner, Deputy Reeve Craigie, Councillor Bailie, Town Clerk Knox, G, L.
