(On New Year‘s Day, a steady stream of callers wended their way to extend greetings to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Renwick, Sr., at their home on Lambâ€" ton St., on the occasion of having atâ€" tained sixty years of married life. All who attended were delighted to see the muchâ€"esteemed couple in such a happy setting, with seven of their eight children surrounding them. The absentee was James, teacher at Westlock, Alberta, and conditions made it impossible for him to be here though present in spirit. MR. AND MRS. ROBERT RENWICK, SR., Durham whose 60th Wedding Anniversary was on December 29th brated on New Year‘s Day. The home was beautifully filled with potted plants and cut flowers. The two daughters of the home saw to the com:fort of the guests, the sons also assisting in entertaining. The dining room table, from which refreshments were served, was preâ€" sided over by Mrs. Renwick‘s sister, Mrs. Geo. Cushnie, of Mount Forest, who poured tea.

They had only two subs, four good players being unable to come. On the other hand, Durham had ample relief reserves, with an even dozen players in acâ€" tion, but had little condition, while the Toronto boys after a month‘s play, were in good form. Much interest centred locally on the showing of the two new addiâ€" tions to the local squadâ€"G. Rennie now of the Public School staff, and H. Cassidy, formerly of Oakville, now employed with the Durbham Furâ€" niture Co. _ The general opinion is that both will fit in well with the team, playing centre and wing posâ€" itions. From a scoring stanGpoint, Rayâ€" bould with 4 goals and 2 assists was the big noise. His stick handling was effective though Durham might have counted more, had he fed passes to his wings more frequently. Elvidge 2, Casscidy, Rennie and Dean were the other local marksmen. With the Toronto boys taking the only goal of first period, it appeared a tight game was on. In the 2nd, however, goals came faster, each team counting 3, making it 4â€"3 for the visitors. The goalies had a hot time of it in last frame,â€"6 pucks went past each, and they came in bunches. Findlay‘s took first 3, Durâ€" bam 2, Findlay‘s 2, Durbam 3, and finally 1 more each.

At the noon hour of the same day, twentyâ€"five of the immediate family sat down to a family dinner, and the good wishes and felicitations from the friends combined with the devoâ€" tion cf family members, will stand out as a loving tribute and memory to Mr. and Mrs. Renwick in the days to come. The same evening, eight old friends from Dromore came to the Renwick residence, to fraternize with the parâ€" ents and children gathered on this occasion.
