It is Gifficult to realize that about $2340.00 of the Chapter‘s money has been sunk in the Town Hall but such isâ€"the case. The Treasurer‘s books show the apâ€" port.onments this way : Scenery ........ ........ $206.00 Lighting of stage .......... 75.00 TOWN HALL PAID Can _ Greys‘ Chapter, LO.D.E., are glad to be free of their indebtedness to the town, re the‘r share as promâ€" ised to the Town Hall Improvement Scheme. Last week, the treasurer, Miss J. M. Weir, B. A., paid. over the last $25 of the Chapter‘s liabilâ€" ity and while they have not been sorry they cooperatea with the Town Council in the scheme, are glad to have the mortgage liftcd. It is true the Chapter has givenm little time for literary, patriotic or educational purâ€" suits the past two years while thiq debt was on their hands. . But now . this is off their minds, they will ie vcoie their time and energies to other' intere~ts that have been calling. l The Review wishes the honored couple many more years of comparâ€" ionship together. LAST INSTALMENT ON The family are: Mrs (Rev.) John Merr‘s, Wocdstock, (Ethel): Mrs A. McLaughlin, London (Flo) : Mrs H. 8. Jackson, Ottawa, (Ada) : Mrs G. R. Pearce, Toronto (Edna) : Mrs N. Harding, London, (Minnie) : Mrs Arâ€" thur McGowan, Durham (Ottilie). Many other gifts and tglegrnms of good wishes have come to this coupâ€" le, among them from Mrs Chas Mcâ€" Kinnon of Pasadena, Cal. and Mrs. Thomas, North Bay, sisters of Mrs. Ncedless to say, Mr and Mrs Limin were overcome with these testimonâ€" ies of good will and affection from children _ and grandchildren, â€" who number ten, but gratefully respondâ€" ed. Two sonâ€"inâ€"laws, Messrs Alex. McLaughlin and Nelson Harding motâ€" ored from London that morning to share in the festivities and returned later same day. After the festive meal together, another surprise awaited them in the form of a beautifully couched address read by their eldest daughter, Mrs. John Morris of Woodstock. Accompâ€" anying was a gold framed tinted picâ€" tu~~ of the bride to the groom and a gold mesh bag presented to Mrs Limâ€" in, containing a sum of meney for them both. The family of six daughters . born to this couple, while now. scattered throughout Ontario, arrived home toâ€" geiher Saturday as a complete surâ€" ‘prise to their parents. In fact Sun~ day was for them a day of surprises. As a family they all attended Trinity Church together in the morning and on returning home, the bridal couple found a wedding dinner awaiting them, centred by a handsome wedding cake, the work of Coles‘ of Teronto, on which was the gclden inscripticn, "Woeuding Anciversary, 1882â€"1932". Spring floral blcom filled the lving and dining rooms. Most of the married life has been spent in Durham, where the groom carried ca for many years a splendid butchering business, also keeping 2 stock farm for a number of years. _ To have attained fifty years of life together in fa‘r health, endowed with all théir faculties and all of their family around them : also to hold the good will, respect and esteem of the people of Durham and dlatrlpt, is the happy lot of Mr and Mrs E. W. Limin, who on Sunday last celebratâ€" ed fifty years of married life. True, the path has not always been strewn with the roses, but the thistles and thorns were kept in check by the spirit, zeal and . coâ€"operation: they put into their life work of making a happy home. Now they can add with the poet : "Grow cldé along with me, The best is yet to be, The last of life for which the first was made." At Hawthorne Dean Farm, Glenelg, the heme cf Mr and Mrs Jabez Banks cun Feb. 14, 1882, was an interesting event sclemnized, when their second daughter, Mary Dorothy, and Edwir W.

He was checkâ€" ‘ed in front of the nets and fell, but seccpea puck in falling for Durham‘s first score. Two minutes later Elâ€" ; vidge stickâ€"handled in from the wing Eto again bulgs the nets. It was pretâ€" ty work. Durham had the visitors Burrows ‘of Harriston refereed,â€" impartially,â€"but . missed _ several ofâ€" ferses on both sides.

The game was called for 15 min. till he recovered, but Durham‘s punch was then gone. Near the close, Dean was penalized for boarding and K. Wilson with him for back talk to referee. For 2 minutes McDonald and the three Durham forwards stalled off a determined attack, but the old game and round were almost gone before they came back and relieved the pressure. * ( Wiarton‘s veteran defence, â€"Gildâ€" ner and A. Ashley was the locals main stumbling block. Both these forâ€" mer stars displayed great form, Gildâ€" ner making several dangerous rushes while McDonald and Totten, two othâ€" er veterans, were also good. \ _ MceDonald in Durham nets was in #his c.dâ€"time form, while Elvidge and Dcan were most prominent out on the ice. Elvidge and R. McGirr disâ€" played some classy stick handling, the latter working in close on two occas‘ens. C. McGirr, Meliraith, S. Rowe and Murdock did some effective checking and their full share in holdâ€" ing down the opposing count, but lacked the scoring punch thembelves. Wiarton‘s goal came 13 min. after play opened when Gildner rushed and shot. _ McDonald cleared but Crane swooped on the rebound and netted the disc. K. Wilson on defence, blocked the rushes without fear or favor but has a tendency to draw penalties for charging. Dean is the human dynamo and his rushes always carried steam behind them. In actual direct shcts on goal Durâ€" ham was superior throughout. In first period Williams blocked g and Mcâ€" Donald 7, in second Williams stopped 8 and McDonald 4 and in 3rd, Wilâ€" lirms 7 and MceDonald 5. Ornly a few were difficult saves, however and the play proved that either team had to work close in to ccunt. Both goalâ€" ies handled the long shots easily. couldn‘t score In actual play the first period was even, Durham had a margin in 2nd. and a wide one at start of 3rd till Williams, Wiarton‘s goalie, was hurt. After his return it was even up till closing minutes when the Redman with 6, to 4 Durhams on the ice for lead to start, made it 2 when they got the only goal of the first period and they coasted through second, still keeping Durham off the scoreâ€" sheet. Elvidge broke through the rugged Wiarton defence in the 3rd for 2 goalsâ€"just enough to win, and tie up the round, but after that neither team could notch the winnicg counâ€" ter. C > ~ enough to provide excitement, and from a Dyrham viewpo‘int the outlook was decidedly blue until the final period. Wiarton, with a 1 goal 6v loom â€" will khave to show more goalâ€"getting ability to proceed furthâ€" er in the playâ€"downs. . A splendid sheet of ice greeted the hockeyists, but the close checking of beth teams prevented team work to any extent. While not thrilling, the match was .as a big crowd here to view the clash, many motoring from surâ€" rounding towns. The game however, due largely to lack of practice, was nct of champioush.p calibre and eithâ€" had all the best of it but DURHAM, THURSDAY FEBRUARY 1s, 1932 â€"McDonald: defence With which is incorporated the Holstein Leader SATURDAY, FEB. flxt 2 p. m.

Durham boys sold $91.75 worth of bonds, Holstein $31.00 and Hanover over $110,00.
