BEN TLEYâ€"PRIN GLE The marriage was solemnized‘ in 'St. Mary’s Anglican Church, Rlchâ€" mond Hill, on Saturday, March 6th, 1943, of John Henry Bentley, son of John William and Mrs. Bentley, of Richvale, Ont, and Shirley Thelma Pring'le, daughter of Jesse James and Mrs. Pringle, of Toronto, Ont. The bridesmaid was Miss Hazel Louise Pringle of Toronto, and the grooms- ‘man- was Harry A. Harman of Rich- vale. After a short honeymoon the young couple will reside in Toronto. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. W. F. Wrixon. We will publish our Ladies’ Auxâ€" iliary report in next week’s issue. Best of luck and quick recovery to our boys on the sick parade. God Save the King! Sgt. Major Andrews is now -in Windsor. Maybe that is the reason for the move of the above mentioned. Comrade Andrews is expected home this Friday for a week-end leave. We are all wondering how thOSe two old Elgin Mills “Vets” Heeley and Evelyn have stood thé grind this Winter. It must be true that “Old soldierk: never die”. Sgt. J. Donaldson, another “Vet” is posted at Espanola. How these ‘Wets” see the country. In last week’s Liberal, one of our new Ccmrade's names appeared as Comrade Jack Gordon. This should have read Comrade Jack Jordan. (Ex- cuse me). Those wandering “Vets” Paterson and Masters’ stay in Windsor was cut short. They are now at Peta- wawa. Was it too many crossings of the border, fellows? To those who saw that Ione figure Monday morning on Mm St..shovell- ing snow, our scouts advise that it was Comrade Reeve Johnny Greene digging out the drifts so Dr. Wilson could get through to see Comrade Butler who is still confined to bed. What. next will our Reeve be doing to help the Veterans? Ou‘: entertainment committee along with the Ladies’ Auxiliary met Tuesâ€" day night and decided to run 3. Euâ€" chre on Monday, March 22, if we can secure the Hall. Total proceeds will go for soldiers’ comforts. Please bear this in mind and full particu- lars wil‘. appear in your next week’s issue of The Liberal. THURSDAY, MARCH 11th, 1943 Rugsian Relief With The Veterans J. M.

The World Day of Prayer will be veek withlheld‘ in St. Mary’s Anglican Church Within the small compass of the efficiently planned interior there is sleeping accommodation for four and six can dine in comfort. Other con- veniences include an electric lighting system, a bathroom with a small bath tub, counter sunk in the floor (and covered with a trap door), 15 gallon water storage tank, sink, refriger- ator, a stove for cooking, and also one for heating on chilly days, and plenty of cupboard space. As the holiday season drew near and he was pressed for time, Mr. Watson enlisted the aid of a trailer manufacturer who had stocks of such hardware and fittings as were neâ€" cessary to complete the job. When fully loaded the trailer weighs less than one ton wlfich means only $3.00‘for a license fee as com- pared with the $10.00 required for a heavier model. Securing two wheels and an axe, he began by making a platform of Oak beams, floored with plywood. On this he erected the skeleton frame. the outside of which was covered first with plywood and then with a layer of cotton battingâ€"the latter giving; both insulation and nicely rounded contours. Canvas was then stretched over the cotton batting on the top half of the trailer, and wea- ther proofed with aluminum paint. The bottom half was covered with a good looking maroon leatherette. Inside, the cabin is lined with varn- ished plywood in natural fir finish, and always presents a very clean, bright appearance. There are six windows, one door and a roof venti- lator which operates like a skylight. Mr. and Mrs. Watson, their two children and the family dog have spent many happy weeks in their “home on wheels”. Though they have parked in trailer camps they much prefer less frequented spots, and for several years they rented a. beach on the Georgian Bay. While there Mr. Watson amused himself by carvihg and colouring a likeness of each member of his family including the It seems that back in 1932 Mr. Watson was walking out of a city parking lot when he noticed a parti- cularly light and attractive looking trailer. It was unoccupied so he could not resist the chance to peep through the window. A toy sail boat lay on the table, two big hoops such as English children roll leaned against the wall and the whole in- terior breathed such an atmosphere of comfort and happiness that he was seized with the desire to have just such a trailer for his own family. A plate on the outside bore the name of the “London Coach Go." so he wrote to England for a catalogue and learned that this caravan (as they are called in the old country) was the only one of its kind in Canâ€" ada, and belonged to the company’s agent who was making a coast to coast tour. Though the price of a similar one â€"£500 (or roughly $2,500) was proâ€" hibitive he was reluctant to give up the idea, and after thinking and- planning for about two years he started to build one himself. When asked if he did much wood carving Mr. Watson said “no”, that he just. happened to be passing when an Oak tree was being cut down, and bought two thick slices of the trunk to see what he could make with them. However, a little further con- versation drew out the fact that he had built a cabin trailer. If you visited the Red Cross Handicraft Show in Thornhill last June you probably noticed two in- teresting stools with bases carved in the form of elephants. These were designed and made by Mr. Hal Wat- son of Thomhill, who in business hours, writes, and sometimes draws the cartoons for advertisements. On Sunday evening next the Unit- ed Church choir and Mr. A. Melecci, organist. will present a 25-minute re- cital commencing at 7.45 after the regular service. The music will be composed entirely by Dr. Healey Millan, one of the greatest Canadâ€" ian composers and musicians. Al- though English-born he has resided for some years in Canada, and with his St. Mary Magdalene choir he as- sisted at the May Festivale in the United Church a number of years ago. There will be a special collec- tion for the choir, and the program will consist of two organ solos, “Schema” and “Epilogue”; anthem “In the Name of Our Lord We Will Lift Up Our Banners”, in which the solo is taken by Mr. Oliver, and solo by Miss Nixola Fisher, “My Lord, My Life".
