Now you have reached the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary, We did not wish to let the event of your silver wed- ding annivereary pass without showing in some way, the esteem in which you are held and to extend our best wishes. Many of as owe to you, Dave, a debt of gratitude for the times when a broken piece of machin- ery would have stopped our farm- ing operations for many hours. If yen had not applied your skill to repair the break. You have not digged in the earth and hid your talents as a welder and mechanic but have ever been ready to give of them to others in need. During the past few years since you have added a back -hoe to your equip- ment you have gone many miles to work with it but 'still contin- ued to find time for those deeds which are the mark of a good neighbour,. You, Mildred, Imam always been for us a shining example of the woman described by the greatest of kings "who looketh well to her household nor eateth the bread of idleness." Under your care flowers bloom andgive to us a thing of beauty to admire and enjoy. In spite of the busy life you lead in your home, you have shown on many occasions the qualities of generosity and kind- liness which have endeared you to each of us. We rejoiced with you when your little daughter was born to be the light of your home and a ray Of sunshine in the commun- ity. At this time we ask you to accept these gifts which we trust will show in some way all you have meant to us dpring the past twenty-five years. With them go our best wishes for God's great- est gifts, happiness, health and prosperity. May the joys and blessings you have known ' ' Increase from day to day Until you celebrate again Your golden wedding day. --1Signed on behalf of your friends and neighbours.

"Gol- den Anniversary Year:" 'Tway in the horse and buggy days. 50 years have passed 'tis true, When you. dear mother and dad, Sol- emnly declared "I do!" When the celebration Was over, You happily settled clown, On .this, the good Those 50 years of wedded bliss, Those 50 years you wouldn't miss; Hand in hand for 50 years, You've shared each other's joys and fears, Through till those years, your loving hearts, Are still as much aglow, As the days when both of you, Were just a belle and beau. And as each. an- niversary comes, And every new year starts, May that glow, dear n1a and pa, Keep shining in your hearts. And so, tonight with spirits bright, We bring you this small token, May it remind you of the years, Of wedded life unbroken. When evening comes and chores are done, 'Tis time for a well earned rest, Just sit right down, Parents dear, And enjoy life at its best. Our wish for you is good success, Along with health and happiness. Our future hopes will always be, The celebration of your next Jubilee. As you look back on fifty gol- den years—And all the precious moments time endears—May all the love you've shared along life's way, Add special meaning to this happy day! From the community: -With hat in hand, this dashing beau, Set out in quest, asyou might know, To win a fair young lady's hand, And bring her to the promised land. Which way to go, he hardly knew, Yet all the while his steps they flew, Down to the corner, where a lovely lass, Wait- ed outside, where he would pass. Scarce did he see this vision fair, Her 'big brown eyes and curly hair. Says he, "Come, Mary, and be my wife, And I will love you all my life," 1 -ler parents blessed them with words or joy, For he was such a nice young boy, A golden ring he then did bring, A wedding day was set for spring. The wedding over, they sett)ed down, On the 1.0th of Mc- Iiillop where they still can be found, A happier couple you never did see, Good neighbors and friends toy ort and to me. The years pa&Sed along and Gott in His right, Blessed this happy couple with hours of delight, Five boys and two girls filled this little home,. No better to find wherever you roam. To work at home, he was more than content, But the public said, "131)1, there is much to be spent, Foe our roads need care, our bridge's cement, And you are the men who must 11e sent" For 82 years. rain, shine, storm or. snow, 13111 ryas always willing to go; S.Vhile Mary kept the home fires burning, And waited long for his returning,
