lead hail, Sleep on_! “You Heroes of Dieppe”, such comrades cannot fail B. M. Macbeod, Richmond Hill'. For nine long hours the battle raged, then “evacuate” came the command, The objective was accomplished magnificent and grand; Back came the men fzom the jaws of death through an inferno of hot Ere dusk gave way to daybreak, and moon to rising sun Boom! like a. bolt from the blue, the battle had begun; The sky o’erhead was filled with planes, battling- in mad foray, Our naval guns spat deadly fire from inshore where they lay. Our men they stormed the beaches and tanks through barbed wire tore, They met a solid sheet of fire, but onward, onward they bore; Every man was a soldier brave, if he fell, he was facing the foe With courage stamped on his manly brow warmed by the sunrise glow. They covered the beach, then scaled the wall, gaining objective step by step; “Die we may, but do we shall,” was the motto of Dieppe. Through the streets went men and tanks silencing guns by the way, Sacrifice, devotion, courage and valor was the order of the day. While Britain slept strange barges went quickly out to sea Destined for that unhappy land where Frenchmen once were free; Ten thousand men, the pick of the brave annoured with tank and Stood eagerâ€"resolute every man for a reckoning with the Hun. in the sky was a wisp of a harvest moon, and twinkling stars made play As through mine-infested waters they safely ploughed their way, A tranquil peace and quiet prevailed befitting to the morrow, That glorious, immortal, unborn day, imprinted deep with sorrow. a reception was held. Later the cou- ple left by motor and by boat for Tisdale, ‘Sask. where they will reside. T-o travel the bride wore a navy blue tailored suit, small hat and veil, ac- cessories ‘to match, and mink furs. HARRISONâ€"BALL Amid a setting of glaLIioli, asters and dahlias a quiet wedding was solemnized at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Graham. Ellsworth Ave, Toronto, when their s'ster, Minnie Ball, daughte1 of the late M1. and ers. Ball, formerly of Richmond H 11, became the bride of Dr. F. W Ha1ri- son of Tisdale, Sask., only son of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Harrison, Richmond Hill, Ont. Rev. C. A. Mus- ‘tard officiated. The bride. given in marriage by her uncle, Mr. Walter Woods’of Aurora, wore a powder blue frock with torso-length bodice and full skirt. ‘Her headdress was a matching toque and veil and she carried a shower .bouquet of red roses and bouvardia. The bride was unattended. Miss Lorine Graham, niece of the bride played the wedd- ing music. Following the ceremony We don’t know when the premiere will be, but write a five star rating down for this film right now and don’t miss it when it’s at your neigh- bourhood theatre. The Farm Commando movie which promises to outshine Mrs. Minever will be known as “Bringing in the Sheaves” and the caste besides Reeve Trench and Clerk Russell Lynett includes such stars as Boris Karloff Taylor, Wallace Beery Schissler and Edward Arnold Moodie. These “stars” supplied the glamour and some seven other seasoned- “commandos” did the work. Those who participated in the making of the pictures got some idea of the care, skill and patience required in making a film. The only trouble experienced. in the filming was when Boris Karloff Taylor who was cast in the role of water boy, walked off the set demanding more of a he- man role. Cecille B. DeMille Cockâ€" burn, director, finally offered to let him ring the dinner bell but he still felt slighted and with an exhibition of “bad temper” tore up his con- tract. Director Cockburn’s only‘ comment was “Boris always was temperamental in the fall.” Movie camera men have been'in town for two days getting the story of local commando help for farmers for the films. The Ontario Farm Service Board wanted to show movie audiences across Canada just what could be accomplished in solving the farm help problem if everyone went at it in the right spirit. The Rich- mond Hill group was selected to do the job, not because of their beauty but because of the extent of the help they were able to render to farmers of the district. A movie has been made showing Farm Commandos leaving their places of business in Richmond Hill, loading up and going to the farms, and in action stook- ing, drawing in and threshing. Richmond Hill “Farm Commandos" have received widespread publicity for their efforts in helping farmers of the district harvest the season’s crops. In addition to many stories in the press about local commando raids on neighbouring farms, radio commentators have broadcast over the air waves about their activities and this week they broke into the movies.
