Nutting of Walk- erton, whose left arm, which was bad- ly shattered above the elbow in the war, has heeo giving him so much trouble of bite that he was advised by medical men to have the limb ampu- tated, went to London with the inten- tion of having the arm removed, but Dr. Hedley Williams, an eminent sur- geon, decided to perform the eighth opration on the limb in a final attempt to save it. Aii a consequence Mr. Nutting underwent a severe opera- tion at Victoria Hospital, London, last week, when particles of fractured bone were removed a few inches above the elbow, and a piece of shrap- nel taken from the shoulder. The genial postmaster has recuperated sufficiently as to permit him return- ing home the latter part of this week. â€" Telescope. Durham Orangemen will celebrate next Twelfth of July at home.

Corbett Are The Happy Coufrfe A Very happy event took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. H.Cor- bett, retired postmaster at Proton Station, on January 21st, when they, with their children and grandchildren, celebrated their Golden Wedding. The event was unusually happy, as all the children of the family are living and well, all being present ex- cept the youngest son, who resides in the West. Mr. and Mrs. Corbett and both quite hale and hearty and enjoying life after their strenuous work in the office. Mr. Corbett was also a prosperous farmer for a number of years near Bethel, and was quite active in municipal affairs, being Reeve for a number of years. The home was beautifully decorated in gold and white. The guest room was lighted with candle light, the candlesticks being souvenirs from old Ireland. Even the bride's cake look- ed very tasty in its gold and white mantle. A pleasant part of the evening was a nicely worded address read by the eldest son and the presenting of two beautiful chairs to the happy bride and groom of fifty years ago. Mr. Corbett replied very fittingly in a few well-chosen words. Many messages were received, am- ong which were greetings from their son in the West, and granddaughter, Ottillie Lockhart, nurse in Toronto, who could not be present. Theday was one of the coldest for a long time, but the guests paid little heed tothe howling wind and drift- ing snow. Their thoughts were centred on the balmy days of child- hood when all were at home. After a real enjoyable evening spent in games and music, the party broke up with a prayer in each heart that father and mother may both be spared many years to enjoy their well-earned i-est. The children of the family are : â€" John M. Corbett, Dundalk; Walter, Toronto; Mrs. J. S. Lockhart, Proton; Herb Corbett, Proton; Edwin, Dun- dalk and Dalton at Abbey, Sask. This is the time of year when you can't get downed by falling out of a canoe, but if you look around you can always find some thin ice for skating. €1 • O SIX HILL STORES Wa buy together in order that our cuatomer* in the liz com- munitiea mejr materially ben- •fit individually.
