CARTER-CALVO WEDDING
PROVES EVENT OF THE WEEK.

Returning TO first principals-and
the theory that brides are society's
first interest in June-thc Carter
Calvo wedding was the event OF the
week. 1t was big church wedding,
solcmnized in st. Pauls Church on
Wednesday morning, and everybody
seemed to be there. Miss Celina CAL
vas father. the late Senior Don Joa-
ouin b Calvo, was for nearly twenty
years Minister OF Costa Rica to the
United States, and Nine. Calvo has
always kept up her affiliations with
her husbands colleagues. SO that ac-
counts for the presence OF most OF the
older-in point of service diplomats'
Then. again, Senator Carter OF Mon
tana" Mr.. Carter's late father was
almost a landmark on the Republican
side of the house, and the town rs
filled with official folk who hold him
ia affectionate remembrance and are
or the friendliest terms with Mrs.
ThomsT II. Carter, who makes her
home here. SO that accounts for the
big official contingent among the
guests. As for the resident set-well,
both the bride and bridegroom grew
up here and both are genuinely popu-
tar and have hosts OF friends.
The church wedding was followed
by a breakfast at Nine. Calvo's hous
for the members of the two families
and the bridal party-a bridal party
which included among others Miss
Calvo's two sisters, Miss Maria Calvo
and Mrs. Thomas B. Harrington MAR

AZ well as three of her brothers and
l brother-in-law. Mr.. Harrington. One

EvangeIine's Home Today

Whether Evangeline ever lived or not. her name has endowed spot with more graciousness and fragrance than has fal- len to probably any other spot on North America What gives the subject par ticularly pleasing interest now is that a statue of Evangeline is to be erected at Grand Pre-, adjoining what is commonly called "Evangelines We'll" which statue is by descendant of Acadans.
 Before he died two years ago, Philippe Hebert, the greatest of Frech-Canadlan scu1ptors, was engaged upon a statue rep resenting Evangeline leaving the land of her childhood and looking back in sor- row Although perfectly happy exile in Montreal, he entered into the spirit Of the poem as perhaps no other sculptor could. The name Herbert is found amongst those of the adventurers who landed on the shores of Nova Scotia with Chan1plain in 1894. Philippe Hebert' s son, Henri also distinguished sculptor, is finishing the statue, which is this year to be cast in Paris in bronze.
 The well which is called after Evan geline-whose actual existence, of course, is doubtful-is of a type common in rural Nova Scotia. A pole stuck into the ground few feet from the well, and about te infect high, supports longer pole which moves lever-like, raising and lowering sthe bucket down the well. Near this particular well some blacksmith 5 tools have been unearthed, sufficient to justify the local legend that this was the site of the village smithy over which Basil the Blacksmith presided.

 It is needless to say Miss Bomar will carry with her to China the love of the entire citizenship of Marion. and more especially that of the young people with whom she has grown up, which is but q just tribute to her charming personality.
 The sentiment of the community is voiced in the following:
 Louisa. thou art indeed so fair, That wealth and ease would gladly share
 Their transient joys with thee; And all the worlds alluring charms Come to thee with outstretched arms,
 To pray thee queen to be. But thou art wise as well as fair, To thus disdan the worldly snare
 That fain might play thee ill.,

 Speeches were delivered by President N. H. Hobdy and Rev. ". NJ. Gladen. In his short talk the president gave a brief history of the Christian society from the time it was started by him a year ago until the present date. He fm- pressed his members with the fact that they must all pull together if they would succeed, and that he hoped to make the Christian Union Society a great power for good among his people. The func- tons of the organization are to insure it's members against neglect when they become sick. When a member becomes sick, the society immediately sends fellow member to look after the sick member and call in a doctor if neces- sary The society takes care of the doc tors expenses and also pays the sick member liberal sum until he is able to work again. Tn addition to this the society pays the burial expenses of any member that dies. The president ex- pressed his desire to branch out into educational lines and make the society a popular organization for the young and old alike

FEW FOLKS HAVE
 GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are Using Recipe of Sage Tea
 and Sulphur

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull ana lifeless, is caused by lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so at tractive, use only this old-time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" which dark ems the hair so naturally, so evenly that nobody can possibly tell 1t has been applied. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that. be- sides beautifully darkening the hair after few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.-Adv.

At this meeting there will be complete reports from the unions of the work accomplished since October, 1919. how they have grown numerically and financially and the worth of their moral influence to the community.
 An unusually large attendance is ex- pected at this ccSvention because of the effort that is being made by some interests in favor of a less drastic en- forcement of the prohibition law, and that will permit the sale of wines and beer. Though it is believed by the
