ROYAL COUPLE COME Despite the odds quoted by Lloyda acme months ago, Canada had the unique joy of welcoming her King and Queen today. Escorted by two cruis- ers the Royal couple travelled via the C.P.R. Empress of Australia, and were met by most of the Canadian navy â€" our two "destroyers" on the Atlantic coast. Dramatic was the appearance out of the western skies of two tiny specks in the air which became vis- ible as two units of the Canadian air force winging eastward to salute the King. Never did monarch receive warmer welcome or greater loyalty than did George the Sixth and his Queen, Elizabeth. From ocean to ocean Can- adian life is quickened and the fires of homage burn bright. The visit of the Royal couple to the United States is, too, a happy feature of the unique event. , Canada has marked the memorable occasion by a special issue of very beautiful postage stamps, and a spec- ial silver dollar. Decorations in the centres to be visited are very beautiful. While unprecedented, all Canadians join in the hope that the many pre- cedents being thus established, may be but the knitting of a closer Em- pire bond in a world which sadly needs cohesion, tolerance and the op- portunity for undisturbed industry and prosperity. HOLDFAST U. F. W. O. The regular monthly meeting of the Holdfast Club was held at the home of Mrs. Wm, Beaton, with a good at- tendance. The roll call was answered by the members naming a Canadian River. Mrs. J. K. McLeod gave a splendid paper on current events. The topic "Has Hydro been worth the price," created a lively discussion, led by Mrs. Allie Muir and Mrs. John Nichol. Impromptu speeches by each member proved a very interesting part of the meeting. Mrs. Wm. Bea- ton conducted a. contest which was won by Mrs. D. Campbell and Mrs. John Stewart. A donation of bulbs was given by 'Mrs. D. Campbell. The sincing of the National Anthem brought a very interesting meeting to a closo. The June meeting will be hold at the homo of Mrs. McDermid. EAST MOUNTAIN (Intended for Laat Week) Mra. R. W.

Far- mers will be through seeding this week. Early,! fruit trees are coming out in bloom and the valley ia a beau- tiful sight just now. It will be better by next week. The Ladies' Aid had a very success- ful concert and play given by the Vic- toria people. The play was entitled "Over the Hill to Paradise," and was good and well attended. Mr. D. A.

Miss Fannie Aber- crombie at Fairmount. Miss Aber- crombie is over 90 and enjoying g^>od health. We understand that Rev. S. Mc- Auslan has presented his resignation as pastor. We regret it, very much. Rev. McAuslan has given eight years of more than ordinary faithf vil service. We believe he has decided to take a much-needed rest. Men Get Married Too ("Old Bill" in Dunnville Chronicle) John Jones, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jones of Pleasant Villa became the bridegroom of Miss Elizabeth Smith at high noon today. The ceremony took place at the home of the groom's parents and a full house was counted. Mr. Jones was attended by Mr. Brown, as groomsman. As the groom ap- proached the altar he was the cyno- sure of all. Blushing prettily he re- plied to the questions of the clergy- man in low but firm tones. He was charmingly clad in a three-piece suit consisting of a coat, vest and pants. The coat of dark material was draped about his shoulders and tastefully gathered under the arms. A pretty story was current among the wedding guests that the coat was the same one worn by his father and grand- father on their wedding days. Mr. Jones does not deny the truth of the sentimental touch. The vest was sleeveless and met at the front. It was gracefully fashoned and at the back was held together with a strap and buckle. Conspicuous on the front of the vest was tlie groom's favorite piece of jewellery, his fraternity pin, and from the upper left hand pocket was suspended a large IngersoU watch, the bride's gift to the groom, which flashed and gave a needed touch of brilliance to a costume In perfect taste and harmony. The groom's pants were of dark worsted and were suspended from the waist, falling in a straight line al- most to the floor. The severe sim- plicity of the gfarment was relieved by the right pantalette which was caught up about four inches by a Boston garter worn underneath, re- vealing just the artistic glimpse of brown holeproof hosiery above the genuine leather shoes laced with strings of rather chic material.

GROCERIES (From May 18th to 24th) Beneath the vest the groom wore blue galluses attached fore and aft to the pants and passing in a graceful curve over each shoulder. This pretty and useful part of the postume would have passed unnoticed had not the groom muffed the ring when the gfroomsman pased it to him. When he stooped to recover the errant cir- culet the cirulean blue of the galluses was prettily revealed. His neck was encircled with a collar Characterized by a delicate pearl tint of old fashioned celluloid, and around the collar the cravat was loosely knot- ted exposing a collar button of bright metal. The cravat extended up and under the left ear with that studied carelessness which marks supreme ar- tistry in dress. Mr. Brown's costume was essen- tially like the groom's and as the two stood at the altar a hush of admir- ation enveloped the audience at the complete and wonderful harmony of the raiment. Actually you could hardly have told one from the other had it not been for a patch of court plaster worn by the groom over the nick in his chin made by a safety razor. Neither Mr. Jones nor Mr. Smith wore a hat at the ceremony. As Miss Smith led the groom from the nuptials it was noted that she wore the conventional veil and orange blossoms. John .A.. Palmer, slide trombone player of Meaford was awarded a medal at the York Band Festival, held in Aurora.
