Dancing was enjoyed by the music of Harbuin's Orchest- ra. During the evening they were presented, with a purse of money by Harold Corey and the following ad- dress was read by Robert Wallace. To Mr. and Mrs. Harold Rice—Con- gratulations on the occasion of your marriage. Dear Harold and Janet—,To celebrate your recent marriage, we have asked you to join with us to -night where we can all have a whale of a good time and where we can meet you both and follow the time-honored custom, "Shake hand with the groom and kiss the bride." We have been expecting this event for some time and are truly thankful that you didn't disappoint us and that you are going to carry on the "Rice" farm, which is so well situ- ated, that is, close to school, etc. Many things come to our mind when' we think of your marriage. There has been and still is, great scarcity, of certain commodities during the' war years and even up to the pre- sent. One rationed product which we' think of is sugar, but we know that a pair of honeymooners who are as sweet on each other as you two are will have no worry about that. An- other great scarcity has been that of "Rice". We hope this will be rem- edied from now, on. Again we offer our congratulations and•good wishes for a long, happy and healthful mar- ried life. Will you kindly accept this gift from your friends. DUBLIN A large group of friends and rel- atives attended the funeral of Miss Jennie O'Connell at St. Patrick's Church, Dublin, on Friday, Rev.
