Wednesday, December 16, 1942 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE I i > Y VANDELEUR Quite a number from here attend- ed the golden wedding: anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Baker at Eugenia on Monday nfternon, Dec. 14th. Mr. and Mrs. Baker and fam- ily were for many yeara highly re- spected residents of this community, and their many friends tender their heartiest congratulations and best wishes for many more years of happy wedded life. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Kelso and fam- ily moved on Friday last to their new home in Hamilton, where Mr. Kelso has had a position for some time. The Kelso family came here from the West and conducted the store for ^he past four yeara and made many friends, a ll of whom wish them health and prosperity in their new home. It makes quite a change in the community without the little store on the, corner. Our teacher. Miss Dawn, and. pup- ils are making big preparations for the Christmas tree entertainment an evening this week. Mr. Frank Taylor of Ebenezer spent a few days with Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Boland and family.

Want List of Officers The Advance is anxious to publish the names of newly-elected office*? of the various local and district or- ganizations. Here it might be point- ed out that it is the duty of the corresponding secretary (or press secretary) to see that these are placed in the publisher's hands. We cannot too strongly urge that the report of the annual meeting, to- gether with names of officers, be re- ported immediately after the meet- ing takes place. Please do not wait until Tuesday or Wednesday to place these in the publisher's hands. It is easier to attend to such items im- mediately afterwards, rather than leaving them for days and, perhaps w&ks, which make them only so much stale news. Give the names of newly-elected officers promptly to your home paper. Fine job printing at reasonable prices at The Flesherton Advance.
