HE WHO GOES UP . . DOESN'T ALWAYS COME DOWN
Mr. Gordon Mote, Yass modern home furnisher, recently uncovered a 1928 edition of the 'Yass Tribune' when he took up some linoleum. In the paper he read a par concerning Mr. W. E. James, ex- Yass motor cyclist and ace racing car driver, who is now a director of Wollongong and South Coast Aviation Services and managing-director of Ronald Mackellar Pty. Ltd., Wollongong. The paper described how Wally James, the youth, went up Yass' steep cemetery hill road at 72 m.p.h. on a Harley Davidson. Commented a recent edition of the 'Tribune': 'That was 18 years ago . . . and, unlike a lot of other folk, James went up the cemetery hill and came down again."

The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a shaving outfit. The bridesmaids were Miss Alice Mote and Miss Hilda Wales.

The wedding breakfast was partaken at Mrs Fred Fisher's, where the Rev. Mr Weston presided and the usual toasts were honored. Mr and Mrs Mote left by the evening train for Sydney, where the honeymoon is being spent. Their future home will be at Yass.
