yder VOL. IX. DRYDEN, ONTARIO, JULY 17th, 1931. No. 29. Orange Celebration at Britton, Ontario Despite the inclement weather of the morning and casual show- es though the day, the members of the Orange Association from Britton, Pine Grove, Dryden and Quibell tuned out enmass sever al hundred strong, celebrating the 941st Anniversary of the Battle of Boyne. The principal event was the dedication of thé new Orange Hall at Britton, built entirely by the effort of this.baby Lodge. In this neighbourhood there is certainly a very fine community and Lodge spirit, in' fact, the future of Orangeism is very bright in the entire Dryden Dis- trict. The dedication of the Lodge was made by Mr. W. J. Wylie, D.G.M., of the Grand Orange Lodge of Manitoba and he was assisted by Worshipful Brother Prouty of Port Arthur, Wor- shipful Brother Baden Smith of Dryden, Worshipful Brother R. McMonagle, also of Dryden and Brother Boyle. The ceremony was very im- pressive to those outside of the Lodge Membership who were there as spectators. Mr. Wylie made the principal address and his subject was, "Need of Continued Community Spirit and why we celebrate what is commonly known as the ""(Hlorious Twelfth."" He eXem- | plified the teachings of the Orange Order and the duty of Orangmen in the cause of broth- Po Mr. Alfred Pitt of Dryden spoke 2 some length on Orange- ism as it seemed to the outsider and with fine commendation particularly of the zeal and en- terprize of the Britton settler. They have really built a very fine hall at Britton that will be useful for many years. Dinner was served at noon and again at night. There was baseball and gener- al sports and about nine o'clock the Hall was packed to the doors with the 'dancing element from the surrounding country. On the whole a most success- ful day. On Sunday, the ywalith, ser- vices were held under the aus- pices of the Dryden L.O.L., 1694 in the United Church and the incumbent of that Church, Rev. J. W. Howes, preached eloquent- ly on "Aggressive Protestant- ism,"' to the combined members of the several Lodges in the District. | ses Announcements ges A Dance will be held in the Town Hall, Dryden, on July 21st at 9.30, under the auspices of the 1.O.B.A. Proceeds in the aid of the Manitoba Protestant Orphanage, Winnipeg. * * * The W.

In an effort to save his life, Dr. Morison am- putated one leg, but this with injuries to the other leg proved too much and after days of terrible suffering, he passed away early Monday. A native of Ireland, McGuire had been in Canada a few and was a ship's carpenter bv trade. He was in his early thirties but would not give any further information concerning the wherabouts of any relatives or tell the name of his birth- place in the old country, the un- fortunate fellow apparently not wishing his people to learn of his tragic end. Burial took place at the Roman Catholic Cemetery Tuesday afternoon, Rev. Father Belanger conducting the service. only months Murder Victim Well Known in Dryden The many friends in Dryden of Abie Levinson, well known fur buyer from Kenora, were shocked to learn that he was murdered in Winnipeg Tuesday morning, while engaged in his business of buying furs, his alleged slayed being an Indian from Savanne Ontario. The late Abie Levinson was well and popularly known throughout the whole district and the sympathy of everyone is extended io the bereaved parents, Mr. and Bra B. Levinson and family of Keu- ora. GOLF NO NOTES The first round for the nresi- dents cup has been played off. The following players won their games and will play off second round as follows: J. Nicholson, 1 up and J. E. Gibson, 9-7. A wedding of much interest was solemnized in Fort William on Saturday, July 11th, when Catherine Mary, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. MacRae, of Dunvegan, Ont., became the bride of Eugene McMonagle, son of Mrs. Jane McMonagle, of Dryden. Rev. Crosby Morris of Fort William - United Chureh } performed the ceremony. The decision of Gene, Dryden's best known bachelor to.join the | ranks of the benedicts was so unexpected that the few remain- ing members of the bachelor crowd are still in a daze. How- ever they managed to realize the seriousness of the incident enough to muster their corps and make an attack on the honie of the newly weds, who return- ed Sunday from Fort Wiliam, to stage the biggest and noisiest charivari that roused practically! the whole town from their beds about midnight Tuesday. Every kind of noise maker and musical instrument was utilized and it was some din. The bride and groom opened their home to the crowd and rewarded the gang with refreshments and eigars. In order to avoid something like the above when the honey- mooners arrived Sunday Gene cunningly decided to leave the train at Wabigoon and drive to Dryden by car alone with his bride, but alas he was met ut! Barclay by a parade of cars and | showered with rice and old shoes and forced to receive the con- grainlations of the crowd.
