THURSDAY MAY 8, 1930 With which is incorporated the Holstcin L :ader Mr Palmer Patterson, Varney, went to Detroit Friday last in response to word received that his mother was seriosly ill at the home of her daughâ€" ter, Mrs W. W. Lawrence. He was accompanied by his brotherâ€"inâ€"law, Philip Lawrence. We are pieased to state that the last word is that the patient has taken a turn for the betâ€" Mr Robt. Smith has sold his saw mill on Saddler St. to Mr Roy Lawrâ€" ence. This old mill formerly turned out cider but by a litle manpulation and change of machinery, now grinds out shingles. On the evening previous to the wedding, a miscellaneous shower was held at the home of Mr and Mrs Rebt Moorhead, when about 40 friends showered the bride with beautiful gifts. A large wedding bell filled with confetti was showered upon the guest of honor at a given time and she had a busy evening unwrapping the gifts and reading the good wishes and verses attached. The bride thanked them all and personally invited them all to come and see her in her new home. , â€" Both bride and groom are what might be called pure products of Durham. For a time the former was at Loretta Abbey in Guelph, where she was trained in voice culture and her sweet voice has been heard on many occasions in Durham. _ The groom is associated with his father in the bakery business here and as well has shown himself active in sporting circles and a valued member of Durham Hockey Club. The best wishes of a host of friends are exâ€" tended to them for a happy married career, for after all that is what marâ€" ried life is, or should be. ROWE â€" LAVELLE A wedding of two popular Durham young people was solemnized Saturâ€" day, 3rd May, at 1.30 a. m. at Trinâ€" ity Church Rectory, by Rev. E. Hayâ€" es, when Sherwood Leighten Rowe, second son of Mr and Mrs E. A. Rowe was wedded to Kathrine Electa, daughter of Mrs James Lavelle, also of town. _ The attendants were the bride‘s brother George Lavelle, and the groom‘s sister Clara, Mrs \Wm. Wilson of town. Also present at the ceremony were Mr and Mrs E. A. Rowe and Mr and Mrs Jas Lavelle. For the cccasion the bride was atâ€" tired in a beautiful navy blue crepe, matching hat, shoes and fur and carâ€" ried a bouquet of Ophelia roses and lily of the valley. Shortly after the young couple deâ€" parted on a week‘s honeymoon trip to Toronto, Belleviile and Kingston, the bride donning a navy travelling suit, with matching brown shoes, hat, bag and gloves. On their return they will take up residence in the home of Mrs H. Kearney which is furnished in readiness for them. After the ceremony, the bridal parâ€" ty returned to the home of Mr and Mrs. Lavelle where a dainty wedding luncheon was served. Rev. Mr Hayes proposed a toast to the health of the bride to which the groom responded. _ To celebrate the §0th Anniversary of the founding of their company, the Eastman Kodak people have disâ€" tributed free, 500,000 No. 1 a Brownâ€" ie Kodaks to the school childien cf United States and Canada. That is to those scholars whose 12th bi:thâ€" day occurs sometime during 1930. Thkere was allocated 450,000 to the States and 50,000 for Canada.. Judgâ€" ing alone by Durham centre, it was a popular move for there were more claimants than cameras for them. The cameras were given out in order ¢/ application and as many more could have been given away in Durâ€" ham . Mr MeFaGden‘s allctment. was larger than that of bigger cen tres of this neighborhcod. The allotâ€" ment was made on the basis of numâ€" ber of cameras and films sold in 1929 and thus is quite evident that the citizens of Durham and â€"community are lovers of the camera and the beauties of nature. The camea is a pretty brown 2 x 3 and cn the cutâ€" side frame is embossed "Gift Anniâ€" versary." As will be noted the disâ€" tribution between town and country pupils is fairly well diviged. Here is the list of the proud 12 year olds who received this fine gift : | are what | CALVES FOR SALE A load of Calves will be sold by Auction at 6 o‘clock at the C. N. R.
