IX DRYDEN, Ontario, April 11th, 1830 on Vimy Dance That the Ridge commemoration dance would | be a success was anticipated but nov | to the extent it actually was. The assistance. of the newly formed | Ladies Auxiliary had largely to do with th s happy result. Taking charge of the refreshment department the ladies provided a supper that brought for the full measure of praise from everyone present. There may have been a time when the Dryden Branch thought they} could do without ¢he aid of the ladies * on such occasions, but mow it is realised how much their presence contributes to the success of such functions. Mrs J. Gordon, pres'dent of the Auxiliary, and the capable assistants are heartily thanked and congratulated. With a striking patriot ¢ effecy the Mill Hall was beautifully decorated and the favourable commen; there- on reached the profusive stage. For the decorations Comrades A. J. Cole was responsible and his helpful as- 'atants were Comrades E. Deavden iy C. Baker. Dancing commenced shortly hefore Nine o'Clock and before the half-hour the hall floor was well filed with happy couples, barely leaving adequ- ate room for dancing in eotafort. 1% was a joyous crowd, and rarely if ever has there been a more satisfiea one. The M. C. was Harry Gammon The presiden: of the Dryden Legion, Mr J. Winterbottom, presented the prizes, the winners being: Miss J. Milings (radio dance); Miss Carrie Weeks, special prize, (spot dance), donated by Mr W. B. Thorsen, and the two Jucky numbers Mz S. Bartlett and Mr G. Card.

This very generous interest and help is greatly appreciated. The building (it is expected) will be twenty-six feet by forty feet, with a ful-size basement and will seat 140 people. Minister and people are highly ela- original. The background is inten- sly black. It is night. All is over and glent: Christ looks lle some beautiful flower, plucked and wiher- od.
