Immediately after the ceremony the party repaired to the home of the bride's mother, where a dainty dinner was served, the table being centred with the bride's cake.

Decision was taken to proceed-with several important alternations to the Town Hall, a an estimate cost of $3500. Another layer of siding will be added, which will improve its 'ap- pearance, and simplify the problem of heating it. © A much-needed water tower will be built, on top of which a powerful siren will be placed as a five aarm, the latter being part of an ~ alarm system that can be operated from any fire division of the Town, giving the established signals more quickly and with far more effect.

By their victory over the Oxdrift Giants last Saturday night, Dickson's Cubs tied Porter's Sluggers for first place in the Dryden District League. The game was played at Oxdrift and attracted a fair crowd of Dryden and Oxdrift fans, in spite of the disagree- able weather. Teddy Anderson pitched for the Giants and made a great show- ing, striking out 12 men in five innings. Even then he lost on account of poor support from his team mates; though maybe the blame should not be put on them altogether, as the grounds are far too rough to permit good play. Many of the errors of both teams can be put down to the condition of the grounds. If you want to play real ball, Giants, you've got to have the ground in pro- per shape. The Giants were a big surprise to the Cubs after the tussle they gave them last year. We looked for a real fight. Where are all your star playrs of last year, Oxdrift? Let's see you put up a better fight next game. Manager Dickson graced the mound for the Cubs in the opening rounds. He showed considerable speed: and lots of control. We won't say anything more. That's telling tales. Beddome "Thea Sunshine Kid" relieved him in th third frame. go out and a little fellow. come in, made ready for some home runs; but to their dismay the ball from the Sun-shiner made some real funny figures bfore shooting past for a strike. Willard, Sfreddo, Clempson and Charlie with Dusty, formed the infield, with Art Payne, Nymark and Spike Colliss in the field; Dickson, Beddome and Foote, the battery. For Oxdrift, Bob McTavish, J. Jack- son, Jack Adams and Latimer held the front line, Anderson Bros. forming the battery. Russell and Hake were the umpires, with Arthur Pitt as score- keeper, TIGERS Tuesday's Game at Dryden. The Cubs still hold to the top of the ladder by defeating the Tigers Tuesday night, 9--6. The Tigers lost a hard- fought game, and it could hardly be said that anybody threw it away. But two costly errors in the third and sixth left them at the starting point in the League. Kerney again twirled, and you sure have to hand it to him, for he pitched a great game -- and a hard one for any pitcher to lose. It's heart-breaking work, But keep it.up, Frank; he was there with the speed, and showed great improvement in control and box work. Joe Nadon on short, and D. McKay on second, put all they had into the game and made things look pretty poor for the Cubs all through. The Cubs got away to a bum start when the Tigers made two in the first frame, but they tied the score in the fifth, 5--5, showing that they were in for all they were worth, win or lose. Willard on first put up one of hs all- star games, and at bat made four trips around the lot out of four times up-- two singles, a two-bagger, and a three- bagger, If he only had another try, a homer, we suppose. The game was busted up in the third innings by disputes over plays. We all know how hard it is for an umpire to make decisions that please everybody; but when the fans come to our games they come to see baseball, not to hear who has the best line. The rules say, "The Umpire has control of all games and players on the field," and he can use his authority to order argumenta- tive players off.. The rule may have to be put in force if the umpire's decisions cannot be accepted otherwise. Nevertheless it was a good fast game throughout. Beddome for the Cubs . made a big hit, getting in some nice headwork in his pitching. The Sluggers play Oxdrift Giants at Dryden tonight (Friday) at 6.15 sharp.
