The Review extends warmest con- gratulations to the 50-year bride and groom tuurhope to repeat the con- gratulations at the diamond wedding 10 years hence. Mrs McLean was born in Egremont. some 3 or 4 miles from Durham. Mr. McLean was born on the Isle ot Alk. Argyleshire, Scotland. At the. age of live he came with his parents to Can. ada and after six years down country. they moved to the 18th con. ot Egre- mont where he grew to manhood and wedded the woman of his choice. Thirty three years have gone since they moved to Durham where they have since lived, respected citizens and useful members of the Baptist Church. On January 8th, 1384. in the Queen St. residence, now occupied by Me. and Mrs Wm. Bourne, then the Meth- odist Parsonage, Hugh McLean and Abigail Leopard faced Rev. Mr John.. ston. the Methodist minister of the New Connexion Branch and they hare for 50 years stood true to the vows then taken. Tuesday last was the 50th anniver- sary of the marriage of Mr and Mrs. Hugh McLean. well known and respec- ted residents of Durham for many years past. The happy eouple during the day were the recipients of hearty good wishes from many friends, and they had an added pleasure in having around them seven of their eight sur- viving children and also around them not a few or their 26 grand children, all dvvotedly attached to the parents who for 50 years have been the eentre link of the tie that made "home."

Golden Wedding Anniversary A new C. N.

A similar trep- viee is also on Fridays. when one can leave Durham at 3.15 p.m., take the new train from Palmerston at 4.30 p. m. and reach London at 7.05. Each train saves an hour and 20 min. trae. el and Is arranged mainly for com- mercial travellers. or {Aim Clarence, T.

There will be no recount ror the Hy. dro Commlsslonershlp. Mr Laldlaw’a defeat is hard luck for him, seeing he did his full share in bringing the in- atltutlon into the calm waters of " ancial prosperity. Mr Wilson proved a strong man and we have no doubt will maintain the good record of his predecessor. The Band took note or the winners and serenadpd them in front of their homes with fine music. Coming to the Council contest. Tho. 5 members or last year's council are all ro-e-lectt-(l. at the head of the poll, certainly a great compliment to them, which, no doubt they will appreciate. The new man is O. S. Hunter, who heat out an old councillor, Mr Jos. Firth by only three votes. The Review congratulates the winner! and calls attntlon to W. J. McFaddeu's tine vote whlch marks him out as a coming man in municipal lite. J. N. Murdoch's his vote, which loaded him in second place, also shows that the town appreciate. his services. The interest centred chiefly in two contests : that tor the Reeve and that for the By-law. Mr Calder has won out by 46 over one of Durham's pop- ular men, Mr Thos. Allan. Mr Allan entered the contest almost at the last moment and made a plucky run against a candidate, generally admit- ted the best-posted municipal man in towne The by-law, as was generally expected ,was defeated. by over 2 to 1, and some other scheme to provide water for domestic purposes will have to be thought out. Perhaps the great factor causing detvat, was the fear of added expense, but another factor was the uncertainty if the. East springs would prove ample enough for the purpose. The scheme we believe was conceived in the best interests of the town, but many resented the report on the Wells. thinking it. was propaganda lo influence the vote. though there was ample assurance that such was not the case. Not in a long time has Durham wit uessed a Keener municipal election than in 1924. The interest, sometimes nearing excitement. was kept up all day. Sleighs and cutters were much in evidence for toting voters to the polls and hence. a large vote was brought out.

The item in last week's Review re- lating to the fine of Thos. McNanny. for a breach of the o. T. A., we are informed was wrong on Conain points. Mr McNanny says the reason no ad. mittance was given on first call of the officers was owing to their being all away. When the officers did come four days later at 9 p. m., the door was opened immediately. Then the officers went back to Durham alone on this night not "with accused” us the item says.

We should read some ot the classics and for these We must depend largely on old world lit, erature as Canadian writers have as yet written little that can be called classic with the exception of perhaps three books, viz: Kerby's "Golden Dog": Haliburton'te "Sam Slick": and "Maria Chapdalaine" by Blake. She ended with a reading of "The Grand- mother" by Tennyson. $50 IN Gout OFFERED IN PRIZES On Thursday, the 3rd inst, the monthly meeting of the Womou's ltr stitutp was held at the home of Mrs. R.
