RITCHIE The muse inspires me to pour forth my lay, Howe'er unworthy to recall the day, When in old Scotland hearts and hands were given In sacred trust till earth shall merge in Heaven. So long the years may seem to look ahead, Yet on swift wings of love these days have sped; And ever as they go the ties bind tighter ',Vith joy increased and all earth's care made lighter. Miss Ella Tabor of the B. C. Telephone stafF, has left for Buc- caneer Bay, on a two weeks'a- cation. Love and good will and fellow- ship abound Where'r your happy influence is found. And friends today would wish you every one Life's choicest blessings many years to come. o'r.

Martin, late of West Vancouver, have been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Alee Gray of Ambleside Beach. o A particularly large and beau- tiful specimen of Dahlia (The White Single) has grown and blossomed in the garden of Mrs. MacNab Thomson, at Esquimalt and 11th. Also a large Cactus Dahlia, full)ctfil+ inches in diam- eter, and in addition a splendid "show" specimen of a large size. At this early season this is very remarkable as showing that West Vancouver gardens are fairly well advanced as to yield of flowers generally.

Seldom has a happier or more unique gathering been held at "The Clachan" than that which met on Saturday evening to cel- ebrate the 25th Wedding Anni- versary of Mr. Slid Mrs. George Baldwin. The room was gay with flow-ers'nd festoons of mauve and silver, and on a centre table was a handsome three-tiered wedding cake. After the reception of the guests a short service was held (almost identical with that of twenty-five years ago), and at the close the wedding hymn "0 Perfect Love," was very beau- tifully sung by Mrs. Bruce. The Rev. A. M. O'Donnell spoke in his usual apt and genial way. He referred to the pleasant rela- tionship with Mr. Baldwin in the work of the Session; to the years of unselfish service of both to the community, and especially to tne splendid example of an ideal Christian home--a priceless her- itage to hand down to coming generations. Mr. O'Donnell also read the names of many friends and relatives from many distant parts who sent messages of con- gratulations. Not the least interesting part of the evening was the presenta- tion from the congregation of the United Church of a hand- some silver covered dish, a cut- glass bowl, and (for Charlie) a silver pencil. Mr. and Mrs. Bald- win suitably and feelingly replied and several friends of younger days who were present also spoke. Songs were sung by Mrs. Bruce, Mrs. J. Watt and Mrs. McIntyre, and recitations were W. B. A. The regular meeting of West Vancouver Women's Benefit As- sociation (No. 24 Review), will take place on Monday evening.
