Johnston of St. Columba United church, in charge, who spoke very feelingly of the de- ceased, and his acquaintance with him on the way over.seas, and at the front.

Nichol, toast master, who after paj-- taking of the Haggis, called upon the Rev. N. McDonald, for the toast to St. .\ndrew, who he said laid the foundation stone for Scotch e-onomy. Aberdonians despite the stor'..!s ot them, are well known to be the most liberal. St. Andrew. was the most outstanding of all Christ's dis- ciples. At this stage W. Ramage, an in- vited guest, sang "Scotland Yet". Mr. Alex. McLean, with his recent bride of Toronto, proposed the health to the King, which was duly and loyally honored, and replied to by W. Ramage again with "God Bless the King, is the Nation's loving cry." Messrs. J. and D. Nichol sang "Bonnie Braes of Loch Lomond" and Miss A. C. Mac- phail gave the toast to Scotland, very cleverly quoting many interesting features, replied to by W. W. Ramage, with a summary of its great men and their deeds, finishing up with the last verse, vocally, of "Dark Loch-Na- Gar". It fell to Mr. .Archie McCuaig to toast the ladies, who were lovingly tcasted musically, as jolly good fel- lows. The proceeds amounted to $35.00.

The troupe move to Feversham from hero. The winner was treated to a pre- nuptial shower on Thursday evening by the young people, so the prize of the fine .35-piece dinner set of English manufacture will come in very handy. Quite a few here listened to the Royal wedding ceremony on Thurs- day morning, as for ourselves we were blissfully unconscious in the arm.5 of Morpheus, and, I am told, the ceremony w^ent on without me!
