CONSTRUCTION LTD. 1 23.6-4679 ZURICH Former couple r married 50 years Saturday, July 5, 1975, proved to be an action -packed day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bev Beaton, of Blyth, formerly of Hensall. Their house was decked with ribbons, bells, streamers and beautiful home-grown roses. A stunning three -tiered cake with pink rosettes caught all eyes as the guests entered the living room. What was the special occasion? Dorothy and Bev were celebrating their golden wedding anniversary! It all began on July 4, 1925, in Hensall, when Beverley Beat- on and Dorothy Green were wed. The attendants of 50 years ago were Miss Pearl Beaton, sister of the groom, and Mr. Bill Green, brother of the bride. The anniv- ersary festivities were made all the more pleasurable by their attendance. Following their marriage, the happy couple resided in Det- roit for six years. During this time Bev was employed by the railroad Later, they made a decision to return to Canada and so made their home in Seaforth where Bev became an employee in a bakery. In 1946, the industrious couple decided to go into business for themselves. Thus, for 11 years they operated a successful bak- ery in Goderich. At this time, they moved to Hensall where they carried on the "baking business" until 1973. TYhey retired at that time and came to reside in Blyth where they have made many friends. The numerous cards and gifts received by the couple remind us of the high esteem in which they are held in this com- munity. Approximately 150 guests from Blyth and other areas attended. In the afternoon, Mrs. Joan Beaton greeted the guests and had them sign the register, which will serve as a precious reminder of the day. Mrs. Wes Green and Mrs. Dorothy Milliken assisted by pouring tea. Those serving sandwiches and cookies were Mrs. Pearl Koehler, Mrs. Marie Green and Mrs. Marg Radford. When the festivities recom- menced in the evening, Mrs. Ruth Stewart received the visitors at the door. Mrs. Pat Sparling and Miss Isabel Fox poured the tea while Mrs. Fran Campbell and Mrs. Marge McNall grac- iously served the lunch. Those who aided in the kitchen for the day were Mrs. Dorothy Gwyn, Mrs. Betty Bowes, Mrs. Connie Bromley and Miss Maxine bowes. To top off the happy day, the couple received congratulatory messages from Prime Minister Trudeau, Governor-General Leger, Robert Stanfield, Robert Nixon, Bob McKinley and Murray Gaunt. In addition, a commemor- ative scroll from the Ontario Government was presented to them.
