He also hoped that he might hear his band fill the hope which is set in it. After the School Fair, the Waldhof Band had a Hot Dog Dance arranged. which of course went like a Hot Dog.

A most varied and interesting pro- gramme, very attractively got up, is already in the hands of the Convention Committee, Mrs R. G. Wigle, Dryden. The items included, while of vital con- cern to women themselves, are equally of value to everyone in the community. As the Convention is for the ad- vancement of the general good, and not primarily for the benefit of the organi- zation, all women in the district are invited to attend no charge being made for admission. fe OXDRIFT The Chicken Supper and concert given by the people of Oxdrift Tues- day was attended by a large crowd, which thoroughly enjoyed the supper and programme.
