BUCKINGHAM It was fojrtunate that the "man with the hoe" unwittingly betook himself to eradicate the weeds in the monu- ment enclosure before the big United Church Sunday School rally took place nearly two weeks ago. Perhaps not- ice was not taken of this "Pro bono publico" act. Had the weeds remain- ed they couldn't miss seeing them as evil is more readily taken notice of than good. The young people of this neighbor- hood and beyond met at the hall on Friday evening for the purpose of extending congratulations and best wishes to the popular young married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Reiley. At an appropriate time Mr. Arthur Bell, teacher, called the meeting to order and stated the object of the gathering.
