Mr and Mrs Heenan Honored rain all the previous night and all day until six p.m.--the reception in honour of Peter Heenan, M.P. for Kenora-Rainy River, and Mrs [Heenan was carried out in a most thorough manner by the commit- tee in charge. Dozens of Dryden autos arrived at Oxdrift in time to join up with cars from Quibell, Vermillion Bay, Eagle River, Minnitaki, Oxdrift and Aubrey and after Mr and Mrs Heenan had been picked up at Oxdiift by Dr D. G. Dingwall, Mavor of Dryden, the proces-. sion headed for Dryden sharp at 7 p.m. At the plant of the Dryden Paper Co. the procession was met by the Dryden District Brass Band, torchlight brigade, etc, and then proceeded to town to the strains of snappy music. The dozens of blazing torches, together with hundreds of dazzling headlights presented an inspiring sight, never before witnessed in this part of the country. Streets were thronged with hundreds of Dryden citizens and residents of the surrounding country. The procession finally fell out on the Continuation School grounds in the centre of the town where hnudreds of colored lights had been strung and also dozens of lights on the tower of the Town Hall, setting out to wonderful advantage the large Union Jack fluttering in the breeze. This electrical display, together with a huge bon-fire, gave ade- quate light to enable the official reception to take place under most favourable conditions. Mayor Dingwall officially congratulated Mr Tjeenan on his wonderful victory, and welcomed Mr and Mrs Heen- an and the large delegation of Kenora people to town. Mr and Mrs Heenan spoke briefly, both thanking, in feeling terms, the citizens of Dryden and District for such a magnificent reception. Others [ younger element predominated at the Masonic Hall to the snappy music provided by the Freshmen orchestra, the more conservative clement, old timers for instance, held forth in the town hall to the music provided by Messrs Whitely, Turnbull, Greenhill and Kurtz, with the result that everybody was on their toes from the start to finish.

Peter Heenan, M.P., left for Ottawa Correspondence. The apostles who have been predict- ing that Peter Heenan's popularity was waning must have got an awful jolt on Tuesday night. They had to go up on the roof to make roo for the people who were out to give FP and Mrs Heenan a grand reception the services that they have rendered this town and district in the past yeas. t's mighty hard to find a couple that can go among the people like Mr and Mrs Heenan.

No. 1. Mutrie, wwho took part in this exhibi to show their ability to the audience at the Dryden Fair. No doubt this will be quite an attraction. Mr Joe Arm- strong, the young but energetic princi- pal, of our school surely can be proud of his work. A Conceri by Dryden District Band was a decided success, and the players were forced by a tremendous applause to come back and give the audience «ome more. Especially Messrs Le- Baron, Cross and Perduss, were sub- ject to a warm ovation. All players and their leaders are to be congratulat- ed by giving the settlers at the fringe of civilatior: an entertainment, of such standard. Perhaps we do mot fully realize how much we owe those men who spend so unselfishly so much of {heir time and art, to bring into the farthest corners some clean, high and artful entertainment. Perhaps it is not too much to promise them whole hearted support and cooperation for their future enterprise. Election turned out as predicted by A.D. George. People voted nearly all Marguerite Violet, youngest of Mr and Mrs Arthur A. bride of John A. B.S.C., son of Mr and Mrs Amos Hanna of Parsboro, N.S. Rev. H. A. Rivers of Dryden United Church officiated. Immediately at eight-thirty the bride entered the drawing room on the arm of her father to the strains of Lohen- erin's wedding march and the cere- mony was performed under a beauti- {ully decorated arch of autumn leaves, mingled with flowers. The bride made a charming picture in a russet flat crepe gown in bolero effect, combined with floral crepe with coloured hose and shoe in harmonizing {ones. Shc wore the groom's gift, a handsome rope of pearls, and carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses and Lilies of the valley.

The groom's gift to the bridesmaid was a travelling case and to the best man a Parker pen and pencil set. © The ceremony was followed by a buffet luncheon.
