In the evening we were all asked to meet at the Tourist Hotel at 8 p.m. when we were conducted to "Bishop- stowe," the residence of Bishop Dewd- ney, and were greeted in a most {rien:- ly way by the Bishop and Mrs Dewd- ney. Avery large and representative gathering was here and ample op- with one another. tions were given, at the close of which a sumptuous lunch was served. This was the Wedding Anniversary of Bishop and Mrs Dewdney, so a double celebration took place. At 10.30 our conveyance arrived to take us home, so after bidding our hosts "goodnight" we departed to our respective homes. Wednesday morning commenced the real business of the session. This opened with Communion Service in the Pro-Cathedral. Communion was ad- ministered by the Bishop, assisted 'by Canon Lofthouse and the Rev.

The Bride, becomingly dressed in a dainty blue Suit, and carrying a ' bouquet of Pink Roses and Lilies-of-the valley, was accompanied to the altar the other visiting delegates have the by her father, her sister Olive acting as bridesmaid, Orval Jackson supporting the groom. The Rev. S. N. Dixon ¢onducted the press even the most uninformed of the majesty and dignity surrounding this beautiful service of Holy Matrimony, as performed in the English Church which has started so many happy pairs out on life's road with a blessing and ' the assurance that "Those whom God hath joined together," no man can put asunder. Mr H. Gammon at the organ, assist- ed by the Choir, took charge of the musical part of the serviee. After signing the register the happy couple proceeded down the aisle to the strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March; and on out into the bright sunshine where a host of friends wel- comed them in true wedding fashion, confetti and other evidences of goodwill being showered upon them as they drove away; while members of the "| families of both bride and groom came Diamond, who also gave the sermon which was a very inspiring one on "Ruth" (who, we all know, was really the leader of missionary women), and illustrated beautifully the work of Ruth as being synonymous with the W.A. movement. We then adjourned to the basement of the Church for a short business session. The address of welcome was given by Mrs McCoombs, who gave it in a very concise and pithy manner, but nevertheless her remarks contained a very great deal. = She likened the W.A. to a body--the Executive to the "Head and Eyes," and the members to the "Hands", which must always be out- stretched to help. The women of to- day were as "Martha" of old--always busy. Still, as she showed, there was always time to do the things that mattered; and as Dr Jewett, the celebrated Divine said, it was the small offering which meant sacrifice that counted. The reply to this address of welcome Eagle River, The Secretary, Mrs Johnson, then read greetings from the Dominion Board and many outside branches of the W.A. The afternoon session was opened by Rev. J. H. Broughton, of Lac du Hf Bonnet, who spoke very sincerely on the need for sending Missionaries to the Eskimo, in the Yukon and to Japan. Mrs Ball spoke of the great work Mrs Caniff had" done for the W.A. this last twenty years, and presented her with a beautiful bouquet of Pink Carnations in token of the love and de- votion all had for her, and hoped her health would be completely restored by a year's rest, to which Mrs Caniff very feelingly replied.

In' the evening a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, when the happy pair were made the recipients of numerous presents, prior to their departure later in the evening for Oxdrift, where they will reside. Golden Wedding Celebration-- A Golden Wedding anniversary, the first to be celebrated in Dryden's history, was held at the residence of D. G. Dingwall, M.D., on Thursday evening, the 21st of May. Mr and Mrs Dingwall, the doctor's parents who have resided with him for the last few years, were the happy couple in whose honour nearly a score of guests gathered round the banquet table, which was tastefully arranged with Yellow Iris, gold centres adding effectively to the decoration. Rev. H. A. Rivers said grace, and Mr R. G. . Wigle proposed the toast to the guests of honour, wishing them health, happi- ness and a long life. The beautiful gifts included $45 in gold, a beautiful dress and a gold- banded p ipe, a golden bar pin, gold banded Eversharp pencil, and a gol 1d clock. to set off the lovely gifts. 'Mr and Mrs Dingwall came from the north of Scotland many years ago and settled in Lancaster, Ontario. Their family of five, three sons and two daughters, were all present at the "celebration, viz: Dr Dingwall, and W. H. Dingwall, Dryden; Mrs McCrimmon and Jas. Dingwall, Sylvan Lake, Alta; and Mrs McLachlin, Lancaster, Ont. Mrs H. A. Rivers, Mrs McLachlin, and A. E. Berrey contributed vocally to the programme, other guests also adding instrumental selections. Con- gratulations and good wishes were tendered the honoured couple.

Negotiations have been in progress for some time to have the Town take a lease of the grounds and have them put in shape to become more useful to the whole district, the Agricultural Society reserving privileges for its annual Fair and similar purposes. There is certainly room for improve- ment. The grounds will be properly fenced, and the field laid out to provide a proper baseball diamond which can be kept in A-1 shape, and a covered grand-stand erected to hold about 150 spectators. The revenues from this alone would soon justify the out- lay, and allow sport to be more gener- ally patronized. The Society will also Sn to build a Community Hall on the ground, which will be of immense service to the annual Fair, and of advantage in many other ways easily understood. The whole question should be thoroughly considered, od a large attendance of those interested should be present to- morrow night at eight sharp. New Beer Saturday-- : The new beer will be on sale at the Dryden Hotel tomorrow. which is the first to comply with the regulations and secure a permit. Other applications have been made, which require the fill- ing out of various forms and th for- warding of a photo of the premises for which a permit is sought. Several merchants and restaurants expect per- mits within a few days, and this latest attempt to solve a very difficult ques- tion will be given a trial. Long Distance Phone Service A wire to Mayor Pitt Tuesday after- noon conveyed an invitation to meet the private car of Supt. J. J. Horne on No. 38, carrying a number of prominent CPR. officials planning a long- distance telephone project. The plan includes a special wire con- necting the west with the head of the lakes to facilitate the handling of the grain crop. A relay station will be constructed at Dryden station with a telephone expert in charge, providing { an opportunity for the Town system to secure long-distance connection with outside points both east and west. A movie film related to the scheme to advertize the attractions of Kenora and the Lake of the Woods, lent by Division Supt. Horne, was shown on the screen at the Strand theatre, Tues- day and Wednesday.
