WEDDINGS MITCHELL---MORRISON A delightful lawn wedding took place Wednesday afternoon, Au- gust 19th, at Pickering, when Hilda Morrison, daughter if Mrs. Elizabeth Morrison, and the late Henry Morrison, hecame the bride of Arthur W. Mitchell, eld- er son of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Mitchell, Pickering. The cere- mony, performed by Dr. J. R. Fraser now of the Gravenhurst United Church, but formerly of the Church at Dunbarton, King- ston Road, took place under a bower of fragrant cedar and sum- mer flowers, from the centre of which hung a huge white wed- ding bell. The verandah, where the table was lald with the bride's cake, was also decorated in the same happy manner. The bride presented a charm- ing picture in her dress of blue French net with taffeta applique on the full long skirt. The large hat was of delicate pink. mohair with band and large bow of pink velvet, and gloves, hose and shoes carried out the same tone, & happy contrast for the blue of the gown, Her bouquet was of butter- fly roses, lily of the valley, and baby's breath. 'Her bridesmaid, Miss Margaret Mitchell, wore a gown of pastel pink net, with large mohair hat of the same shade. Her bouquet was of corn- flowers, The bride's mother, as 'did also the groom's, chose black lace for her gown, and each wore a corsage bouquet of roses and lily of the valley. During the signing of the reg- ister Mrs. F. Le Roy, sang "O Promise Me" and the wedding march and other incidental music was played by Mrs. J. McWhin- nie, aunt of the groom. A reception was held immedi- ately after when the guests num- bering about 60, many from out of town, took advantage of the occasion to extend their best wishes to the bride and groom, and to view the display of gifts in the living room, bespeaking the esteem of the two families thus united. Buffet refreshments were served on the lawn, and the bride's health' was proposed by Dr. Fraser and responded to by the groom, The bride was given in marriage by her brother, Frank Morrison and Norman Morrison attended the groom. Messages and telegrams were re- ceived from distant places, in- cluding one from the groom's uncle, A. G. Holmes, of Van- couver. The summer sun, shining through the trees, gave its bene- diction to the happy party, and made the picture a most delight- ful one. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell left in the early evening on a motor trip which will take them to North- ern Ontario. The bride chose to wear a tailored suit of beige, with handsome fox fur, the gift of the groom. His gift to the bridesmaid was a bracelet set with brilllants, and to the best man a scarf pin. They will be in residence in Pickering on their return. ------------------ He was wandering disconsolately round the store. What can 1 get you, sir?" said the floor manager. "ve lost my wife."

Hide when .you can and freeze to remain hidden, but jump and run. when you must. Freeze if you are surpised but are not sure you have been seen. These are the laws for long liv- ing taught the twins by their mo- ther, Mrs. Forkhorn the Mule Deer. And the twins learned and remembered, which is quite as important as learning. They had seen their mother freeze standing right out in the open just at dusk and had seen Farmer Brown's Boy mistake her for a stump and finally go on his way without knowing that he had been looking at a Deer. That was a lesson never to be forgotten. They had been told all about freezing, but now they had seen it done and how it worked. They had seen for themselves the value of it, but not yet had they had real cause to try anything, of the kind for themselves. They had their chance a few days later, however, Farmer Brown's Boy and Stumpy had started out at daylight for a long tramp in the mountains. They were walking quietly and were going up wind. That is they were going in the direction, from which the wind was blowing. So it was ghat Mrs. Forkhorn's big cars failed to catch a warning sound and her wonderful nose failed to get their scent, for the wind was taking it the other way. But her watchful eyes saw them the instant they appeared in sight. She and the twins were in the open and Farmer Brown's Boy and Stumpy saw them just as they themselves were seen. There was a little thicket close at hand and into this the twins ran, crouching low at Mother's warning. They separated as they entered it and one lay down and froze in one place and the other did the same thing in another part of th thicket. Mrs. Forkhorn dashed away, bounding over the bushes and seeking to draw the attention of these two strangers. Now the thicket was of low bushes and Farmer Brown's Boy had marked where one of the twins had entered it. He ran for- ward eagerly. "I know just where one of them is," he cried. Stumpy grinned, but said noth- ing. Farmer Brown's Boy made his way slowly and carefully into the thicket to the placa he was sure that fawn was hidden. Care- fully he looked under the bushes on all sides but no fawn could he see. "This 1s funny," said he. "Those fawns certainly didn't go out of the other side; at least the one I was watching didn't. He must be here." Still Stumpy said nothing, but quietly began to search for the other fawn. Back and forth Fare mer Brown's Boy walked around the place where he had seen the fawn disappear. The minutes passed and still no sign of the lit- tle Deer. He was just about ready to give up and decide that after all he had been mistaken and the little fellow had managed to get out of the thicket without being seen, when what he had first taken to be an old log part- ly under a bush caught his atten- tion once more and he looked at it closely. It wasn't a log. It was the fawn, The little fellow was crouched close to the ground, his long neck and head stretched flat before him and his ears laid back. He didn't move although Farmer Brown's Boy was only a few feet from him. There was fear in his big, soft eyes, but he wasn't yet sure that he had been seen and so continued to freeze. Farmer Brown's Boy advanced inviting on a warm day! A bowl of crisp Kellogg's Corn Flakes with milk or cream. How sensible! For Kellogg's are extra easy to digest. They really help you feel two or three steps and still the little fellow lay as if he were in truth a log. But when Farmer Brown's Boy began to stoop over to try to put a hand on him he knew that he was discovered. In. stantly he boun@ed to his feet as if thrown into the air by a spring , and went sailing over the bushes to join his anxious mother... An instant -later the other bounded after him, for Stumpy had found it. Then mother led them away, hounding high over bush and fal- len trees, and very proud of her twins she was. They had passed their first test. Despite their great fright they had remained motionless until the moment By W. Burgess when they knew they were discov- ered. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W.

It's the bertha cape gollar this time that all smart folk are-wearing. It's such a pretty and quaint style for little girls of 2, 4, 6 and 8 years who like to wear sleeveless frocks. The skirt shows soft gathered ful- ness that permits plenty of free- dom for activities for playtime. Design No. 573 is made with 17% yards of 39-inch material in the 4- year size with 4'%4 yards of lace edg- ing and 2' yards of 1%-inch rib- bon. The medium used for the original Paris model is as illustrated. Yt isa French blue dimity with white dots The ruffling is crisp white organdie. The shoulder bow is blue grosgrain ribbon caught with tiny pink rose- buds on shoulders, Pique, printed lawn, tub silk and gingham checks appropriate. Our large Fashion Magazine shows the latest Paris styles for adults and children. Also modern embroidery and instructive lessons in sewing.

BOY SCOUT NEWS Sea Scout Section Scene--Ship in distress rocky coast on a very night. Rockets soar skyward; flares light up the deck where seamen are seen clinging to the rigging. Edi- off a stormy The rocket and life-saving ap- paratus dashes up to the shore- line. The line-carrying rocket is first over the foundering ship. The "whip" is drawn on board, made fast to the mast and is fol- lowed by the '"hawser." Along the hawser, from the shore to the ship, the "breeches buoy" comes travelling. One by one the sail- ors are brought to safety. The old captain is hauled ashore last and just as he is grabbed by the waiting hands of his rescuers the staunch old gun gives a convul- sive heave ahd breaks up on the cruel rocks beneath, Another rescue. has just been completed at sea. The foregoing is only a sum- mary of the display to be given at the big jamboree in September by the 8th Oshawa Sea Scouts. At every meeting the Scouts are hard at work practising their dis- play and expect to reach a high standard of proficiency in this job of being heroes. There will be a practice to-night (Friday) and also one next Tuesday at the usual time and place. Every Scout, please be present. The Local Association has pur- chased for our sole use a fine 27- ft. life-boat. During the. winter it will be our work to fit it with sails, ete., so there will be no lack of activity around headquarters this season. - Scout Notes Next week will see a number of boys from the local troops doing a good turn for the Legion at their convention. It is a pleasure to be permitted to assist the veterans and the boys will enjoy their work. Who said that the local associa- tion hasn't got its eyes open? Through the efforts of the head- quarters' property thirty-five-passenger life-boat has been purchased and will be loan- ed to the Sea Scouts for their work. The Sea Scouts will work on the boat during the coming winter, and will have it ready for launch- ing next spring. What is your troop going to do for the demonstration at the jam- boree or the camp fire in the even ing? Think up an idea and tell your Scoutmaster. He will ap- preciate your interest and help. Troop Notice 5th and 7th Troops The 5th and 7th Troops have accepted the hospitality of Dr. Rundle this evening, and are to disport themselves in the grounds of the doctor's house at Harmony. Various sports events and games will be played, and the boys are in for a good time. Be there. Be on time (6.30 p.m.). Be ready to play. Have a good time, ce eg Scout Notes Proficiency Badge work in Osh- awa has recently been taking a very decided advance, and head- quarters must be surprised, to say the least, to see the number of cards which are being forwarded from this locality. The Second Annual Jamboree takes place in Oshawa on Sept. 19 and 20. At that time a handicraft dis- play will be held, and local troops will compete for the Marks Tro- phy at this display. It is understood that the last test on the Marks Trophy will be the First Aid, which will be held at a later date. Meetings of the various sub- committees for the Jamboree were held this week,and the program definitely drawn up. The 5th Troop will be week- end camping with the Brooklin Troop at Fifosh, this week-end. This will be about the last camping opportunity for the sum- mer season and the boys are tak- ing full advantage of it. It is hoped that a number of tests will be passed at this camp. We regret exceedingly the re- cént death of Reg. Fry. Reg. was 4 member of the 4th Troop until he went to Regina, and on his return undertook the organi- zation and running of the 8th Wolf Cub Pack, until an older man could be found to take oyer his duties. He was a good Scout and a fine young man, and we are poorer by his removal from our midst, BABY PRINCESS TO CELEBRATE FIRST BIRTHDAY Glamis, Scotland, Aug. 21.-- Princess Margaret Rose, youngest member of the British Royal fam- ily, celebrates her first birthday anniversary at Glamis Castle to- day with a party all her own. The principal guests will be her parents, the Duke and Duchess of York, her nurse, Mrs. Knight, and her five-year-old sister, Princess Elizabeth. But perhaps some neighboring Scottish folk, who are proud that the infant bears a Scottish name, will drop in to shake her tiny hand and see her smile, There will be a birthday cake, a huge layer affair with a single candle set in a pink sugar rose, and a special dinner consisting mostly of rusks, eggs lightly cooked, milk and puddings. There will be presents, too. among them one from Princess Elizabeth. who out of her own pocket money has brought her baby sister one of those '"'cuddly" animals she herself liked so much. Although she was underweight at birth, Princess Margaret Rose has been coming along well. "I hope you don't think I'm con- ceited," he said, after he had fin- ished telling her about himself. "Oh, no," she replied, "but I'm just wondering how you can keep from giving three hearty cheers whenever you look at yourself in the glass." committee a' Times Were Never Better For Saving Money THAN AT WARD'S DURING OUR ANNUAL CLEAN-UP AUGUST SALE.

OLD BIGYCLIST Has Already Pedalled 100,000 Miles, At 72 Years Will Vickery is 72 years oid, and in the past 51 years of his life has pedalled his trusty bi- cycle more than 100,000 miles, a durability record to be envied by the best automobile, But Will hasn't used one bi- cycle all that time, In 51 years he has worn out 11 machines, and has "burned up" more than 100 sets of tires. He rides from his home to his grocery store every day, a distance of four miles, Sometimes he boosts up the dis- tance to six miles by pedalling home for lunch. Despite his age, Will can 'step on her" when he has to. When 1t looks like rain he jumps his speed up to 15 miles an hour. In nice weather, however, he rolls along at the easy speed of six miles an hour, BOYS AND GIRLS DISOWN PARENTS Domestic Rifts Widening In Soviet Russia Moscow.-- A record-breaking number of announcements by Russian boys and girls "disown- ing' their parents were carried in Moscow newspapers emphasiz- ing the widening rift between old and new generations under the Soviet regime. The Evening Moscow, for in- stance, carried 31 such announce- ments, of which the following is typical: "I, Ivan Ivanovitch Pavlov, hereby declare that I dissociate myself entirely from my parents effective August, 1931, and live independently of them." Political and religious differ- ences are usually to_ blame for the announcements, the influence of Soviet schools and political or- ganizations leading the children to despise the attitude of their parents in many cases, In other cases economic conditions caused the break, particularly in the cases of rich traders, Kulaks, etc., whose children would be discrim- inated against if they followed the footsteps of their parents. ---- Mrs. MacAndrew: "My, is this not terrible?

T. IL. Kennedy, Provincial Minister of Agriculture has announced. The north will be given a fresh start in farming with modern meth- ods and scientific appliances' and through elimination of inferior stock and low grade seed. The Government will send in the best registered seed for distribu- tion, to replace grades of grain dis- carded some years ago in the older section of Ontario; it will provide tuberculin-tested cattle at low prices to farmers; it will introduce scientific farming methods, Non- productive poultry and poor grade cattle are to be weeded out. "The north is ready for farming as never before," said Col. Kennedy, who has just geturned from a two weeks' trip in thgt part of the pro- vince. "Settlers hake lost interest in pulpwood and are out to farm. Un- questionably, a big boom is coming up there. It may be some time yet, in the face of the present depres- sion, but it is bound to come, and when it comes we will be ready for it." The two Government experimental stations at New Liskeard and Hearst, Ont., will be the instruments whereby the new policy will be put into effect. In addition, a tempo- rary station will be established in the Rainy River arca. The pro- jected plans, it is hoped, will result in elimination.of weed plagues, and stock diseases which arc prevalent in parts of the country.
