Golden Wcddinj ol Mr. and Mrs. S. H
Mead A Happy Event.
<>n the evening of the isth, it be
ing the fiftieth winkling anniversary
of Mr. anil Mrs. N. Meail, a large
number of invited guests gathered
at their home on West Main street
to ofli r congratulations and join in
celebrating the happy omirance.
After the guests, numbering up
wards of one hundred, had assem
bled, Mr. and Mrs. Mead took seats
beneath an arch of evergreen on
which was placed the words lettered
in white flowers, "Married f»0
years." There they listened to ap
propriate remarks by lie v. S. Jf.
Engler.
They were the pictures of happy
old age, and reading from the page
of history stamped upon their brows
showed that the hand of time had
lain lightly and gently there.
Their cheerful countenances gave
assurance that life had been worth
the living, and turning the search
light into their hearts was found
abiding peace. With all these com
forts of life they joyfully received
tribute* of love and kind wishes of
friends for happiness through all
t heir remaining years.
The comfortable home was turned
over to the possession of the guests
whom were all made to feel many
times welcome. A luncheon was
! served before the friends departed
and with all the efforts made by
hungry mortals to clean the festive
board of delicious refreshments of
endless variety, the assault proved
hopeless and distressing to those with
large appetites. Beautiful mus
ical selections on the piano and violin
by Hev. E. lleim and Misses May
MuHley and Olive Harrows added
much charm to the occasion. Many
valuable and useful gifts was present
ed to the host and hostess. Friends
from distant points joined in this
memorable celebration so greatly
enjoyed.
There will be.a special teacher's
examination held at La Porte, Fri
