Diekens--Coulter A wedding of wide interest taak place Tbursday afternoon, Na- vember 26, in Bowmanville, when Miss Lillian Geraldine Coulter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Manson Coulter, Temperance Street, be- came the bride of Mr. Ernest Les- lie Dickens, Toronto, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Dickens, Winnipeg, Man. The cememany was beld at Trinity United Cburch Parsonage at four o'clock with Rev. J. E. Griffith officîating. The bride ware a pale blue sheer afternoon dress with navy blue accessaries and a corsage of red rases. Her oniy attendant was ber sister, Mrs. C. W. Wright, Bawmanville, who ware a bmown and gold crepe afternoan dress with brown accessaries and a cor- sage of red roses. The graamsman was Mm. Harry DePew, Bowman- ville. Faliowing the *ceremany a re- toriumn to plan the costumes. At this point we were asked for our suggestions. What was Stur- rock to wear as Captain Snark? What came to our mind was the carnival showmen in "My Gai Sal" and coincidently that was exactly what Sturrock was think- ing of. We settled for that. Gil- hooley could be costumed with little dfficulty, it was decided, and Miss Lennox had a costume for Joan. Miss Jeffrey was to go shopping with Ruth next morning for material to make "the Girl's" costume. At this juncture we nad the opportunity to ask Miss Hutchin- son some questions. 11 want to be an actress," she stated. She made the pronounce- ment with the air of a young lady who knows exactly where she is going. "I feel that my music and elocution will help me," she con- tinued. "Your favorite actress? Cor- neli, perhaps?" we ventured. "Yes. And Ruth Draper," she replied. Then she made a startling an- nouncement. '"You know," she confided, "I'mr going to dye my hair black for the part I am play- inDy1e it black!" we echoed. "y don't I do some silly things? But I feel that if I dye it, I ilgt the feel of the part really get into it. I'd cut my hair if it was necessary. I love acting that well," she replied. Then she added: "The dye will come out after a few washings." "And how do you like it?" Miss Jeffrey asked us. "Fine," we replied. "You know it has an O. Henry ending. Do you know "The Man in the Bowler Hat"? It has the same surprise twist at the end." Then we added: "You work when you work, don't you. There wasn't a minute wasted tonight." "No," she confirmed. "They are a fine bunch. Do you know that this is the first play for the boys and they are entering right into the spirit of it. Both are making a sincere effort to get their parts letter and motion perfect. I am well pleased with ail of them." With this pronouncement she flicked the last light off in the high school and we ail stepped out into the crisp night air. SIn The Editor's Mail Carberry, Man. November 20, 1942 Dear Mr. Jamnes: Soldiers' Letters Somewhere Overseas, October 25, 1942 Dear Mr. James: Another year is drawing to a close and I am writing this letter to you ta thank the organizations and the people who have remem- bered me throughout the past twelve months for the cigarettes, etc. which I have received, such as the Lions Club, Rotary Club, Women's War Auxiliary, Girls' Knitting Club, and the St. Paul's Church. It certainly doesn't seem pos- sible that this will be my fourth Christmas away from home, but I am hoping that next year this time I will be dloser to it than at present. In closing may I wish you and your staff, plus the citizens of Bowmanville, on behalf of myself and my wife a very Happy Christ- mas and success for the coming year 1943.
