WINGHAM CITIZEN'S BAND TATTOO ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 22:nd, TO BE GALA EVENT The Citizen's Band Committee of the Wingham Chamber of Coin/fleece report gratifying results .in arranging for a splendid evening of varied en- tertainment on the date selected, namely, July 22nd. Bands from the. neighboring towns are offering will- ing assistance and Wingham's Band Tattoo is expected to rank with the best in this section of the Province. Goderich band who were not with us last summer will be one of the new visitors on July 22nd. Their Band is reported to be composed of 32 pieces and to be exceptionally strong this year, Wingham willwel- come the band from our County town with enthusiasm. The 'County town of Bruce will al- so send a band to uphold the honour of our neighboring County.. Walk- erton was not represented last year either, so these two new Bands will lend an added interest to the com- ing Tattoo. Hanover, whose Band holds recog- nized leadership in this district were among the first to offer to help the Wingham Band in their Tattoo this year. Their 'effort at the National Exhibition in Toronto last year re- ceived wide and favorable comment, and we are indeed fortunate to have Them with us again. The splendid co-operation of Hanover among the smaller bands makes the Hanover musicians all the more popular. Blyth, for its size, has one of the best Bands in the district, and if the spirit which supports the Blyth Band in its home town were emulated am- ong the citizens of other towns, the bandsmen, generally, would be great- ly encouraged. Blyth will be with us again on July 22nd, and we hope that our citizens will not fail to ap- plaud the enterprise of our neighbors in maintaining such an efficient band. Several towns are yet to hear from so we have every reason to expect a Tattoo this year which will exceed in popularity any yet attempted here. Wingham Citizen's Band maintains a strong position. Among the veter- an bandsmen here is a goodly sprink- ling gof younger hien which augers well for the future of the Band,` We print below a list of our band mem- hers with the instruments they play. G. A. Schatte, Leader; E. Seddon, cornet; A. Hammond, cornet; Geo. Beattie, cornet; H. Burgess, cornet; E, Coutts, cornet; N. J.,, Fry, alto horn; Wm. Henderson alto hprn; F. Johnston, base horn, Wm. Reid, base horn; Dave Benedict, trombone; H. Newell, trombone, Alf, Mitchell, trombone; C. Cook, trombone; J. Carr, baritone; Carl Mckay, clarinet; J. Ernest, clarinet; Lloyd Hingston, clarinet; Jas. Seli, base drum; M. Templeman, side drum. NOW OCCUPYING LARGER QUARTERS Mr. Wm. Ingham, who for the past ten years thas conducted a tire and. battery business, known as the Wing - ham Tire and Vulcanizing Depot in the Morton Block, has moved his business to a more commodious building formerly known as the South End Garage. Mr. Ingham through an honest en- deavor to serve the public and by his ready advice, gained by long ex- perience on tire matters, has built for himself a steadily increasing business necessitating this prove. In moving to larger quarters Mr. Ingham says he will be more than ever prepared to give even better ser- vice than he has in the past, He has installed on his new premises a lad- ies' and a gentlemen's restroom that should be of great convenience to the motoring public, and has added the equipment to grease, oil and wash cars along with his tire and battery service.

HOLD SUCCESSFUL GARDEN PARTY A. very 'successful Garden Party was held at the United Church, Bel- grave, on Thursday evening, June 18. It was a fine evening and there was, a large attendance present for the ex- cellent supper served by the ladies of the congregation and to hear the program which was presented by the young people of ` Browntown• Tht program consisted of a play, a threes act Comedy entitled "Wild Ginger", musical numbers were given before the play and between acts; Arnold Vint favored with mouth organ sel- ections. Mr. J. McMichael sang a. solo and an encore. The cast of char- acters was as follows: Jake Tallman: A crabbed old mis- er, Chas. Johnston; Virginia Tallman, Jake's daughter "Ginger", Margaret Mustard; Geoffrey Freeman, a neigh- bor, Melville Mathers Sanford Lak- ey, Indebted to, Old Jake, Harry Gar- niss; Marwood Lakey,'Sanford's Osr= er indulged son, Lloyd Turvey;' Wuzy Walker, A would-be Chiropractor, Walter Sellers; Mr. Peterson, A Gro- cery Man, Bert Garniss, Rachel Lee, Ginger's Best Friend, Viola McLeod; Miss Stanley, A Health Nurse, Lil- lian Garniss; Mrs. Walker, Wa zy'a Mother, Emma Johnston; Bonita Lakey, Marwood's Snobbish Sister, Ethel Garniss. The play centres on. Jake Tallman's great greed for money and we find him being in the rudest shack with the daughter "Ginger", who leads a very poor and lonely life. Jake's love for money drove his wife away when Ginger was only a baby so that she never knew her mother but has a great friend in Rachel Lee. As amt. goes on Jake is brought to repent of his miserly ways and as Ginger has managed through aid from friends, and particularly Miss Lee, get some education and a chance to live a life as a girt desires and on completion of her terns at school she returns home to find that her mother who has been in disguise as Miss Lee, has returned and her father has purchas- ed a fine home for them to live itt and enjoy. The parts were well taken and much credit is due these young peo- ple for their efforts in making the evening a success and we wish them the best in the future. Dancing Every Thursday Evening Dances are being held every Thursday evening in Winghain Ar- ena. This week Tony Farr and his orchestra will furnish the music.
