Miss Drew Kelly and Mrs. George Kelly Jr. as Jig‘gs and Maggie. Best dressed man, Douglas Brown as a negro and Best Lady, Miss Janet Brown as a Hallowe’en sprite. Old times, hard times, clowns and other Hal_lowe‘en sprites were among the Masqueradel‘s failing- to win prizes. The rest of the evening was joyously spent in dancing. We congratulate the committee consisting of Messrs. Charles Hooper, Douglas Brown, Newton Brown for putting on such an eventful program. The Mac- Donald orchestra was in attendance. Dogs attacked one of Mr. Henry Hooper’s sheep and no doubt would have killed it if they had not been driven away.

The old one was in bad shape and the new one will be heartily appreciated by the citizens generally. More Reasons Than One iPremier Ferguson is generally cred- ited with being at least a clever polit- ician but as an old subscriber suggest- to us this week he certainly overlookâ€"l ed fixing the weather man. The stea- dy rains this fall have been enoughto make all the farmers vote dry. Misunderstood Referring to the letter of Free Speech in our issue last week Reeve Lunau stated that unfortunately the correspondent entirely misunderstood lthe'motives of the council. He again firmly declared that it was not the intention of himself or any member of the council to interfere in any way with any body or organization holdin religious meetings in Richmond Hifi and that any action taken by them was merely to safeguard the interests of the general public. Permits will be granted for meetings to be held anywhere except on busy corners where the public safety Would be en- dangered.

A most enoyable evening was spent last Friday when Dr. and Mrs. Lockâ€" hart and family of King held a mas- querade party at their home. Their guests were the teachers and pupils of fourth and fifth forms of the High ‘SchooL A One certainly felt that the spooks and evil spirits were flitting around whe we saw the cauldron and light- ed pumpkins at the gate and was met at the ddor by a witch, who, proved to be the hostess The living room. dining room and halls were very prettin decorated with Maple leaves, black cats and orange and black paper tastefully designed. There was a good variety of cos- tum'es, gay clowns, cow boys, sailors, an Irish maid, mother goose, gypsies a jester and a Victorian lady being regresented. Diving into the cauldron for fruit Was very amusing. Lucky we he who obtained a slippery apple without get- ting himself fairly wedged in the cauldron or upsetting it. Anpther tantalizing sport was eat- ing apples which were suspended frqm the ceiling. One was so near and yet so far. A peanutr relay a puzzle game and dancing provided amusement for all Shortly after mid-night a very dainty lunch and coffee were served. Allan White, expressed on behalf of fourth and fifth forms, appreciation for the hospitality offered by Dr. Lockhart and Mrs. Lockhart and fam; ily., Mrs. Lockhart replied very graciously.

' I am keenly interested in the hock- ey possibilities of our district but at present I’m feeling pretty down-in- the-mou .

It seems to ie, Mr. Editor, that the fates are a'gin us. What will we do? Editor Liberal Sir :â€" I Yours truly, ‘ Hockey Fan. Editors note;â€"We are always glad to be of assistance to our subscribers on a wide range of subjects but in this case we would recommend iliat you consult a foot specialist. ‘1 I am surprisedfihat there has been no reply re 0. TV. A. which appeared in your reéent issue. That was sureâ€" ly a splendid opportunity for the meinbers\of the W. C.I T. U. to stick to their guns and fire a few shots in the Cause. The reason was probably that in their secret hearts they all know that pnohibition has been a failure. There is a queer streak. in human nature which always makes the un- obtainable the most desirable thing“. There ‘are hundreds. of young people drinking today because the Govern- ment said “thou shalt not.” Before prohibition a youth who carried a pocket flask was simply ostracizedv today those who do it are, considered smart. Local option is the only solution of the problem. Nobody wants the bar to'come back, but no thinking person wants the present conditions to con- tinue. It is simply a question of moneyâ€"the rich man can drink as much as he likes, only the poor man is deprived of the priviledge. Those who vote for Prohibition are helping the bootleggers. _ I voted for it my- ‘self last time butâ€" l NEVER AGAIN. THOMASâ€"WATSON A very pretty autumn wedding took place in Hope United Church on Thursday of last week when Doro- thy Irene second daughter. of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Watson was united in mat- rimony to Mr. Henry Keith ‘Thomas son‘ of Mrs Thomas and the late Hen- ry Thomas. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. A. S. Kerr and Miss Hilda Crook played the Wedding March. The bride was given away by her father and looked girlish and charming in a dress of white georgett with veilland orange blossoms, and carried a bouquet of Ophelia roses. ‘The bride’s sister Miss Marjorie ‘Watson, acted as bridesmaid. and was gowned in Yellow georgette wear- ing a picture hat and carrying a bou- quet of pink roses. Little Miss Ruth lWatson in powder blue made a pretty train-bearer. The groom was assist- |ed by his cousin Mr. Roy Barker of 'Thistletown.
