• CELEBRATE 50TH ANNIVERSARY
Many Friends and Relatives Gather to Assist in Celebrating Occasion of Golden Anniversary. A tribute, dedicated to Mr. and Mrs. M.T. Edwards of Austin, on the occasion of their golden wedding anniversary, by Mr. Howard Charming:
They live here on a mountain top,
Through smiles and sobs and tears;
They stand, a sentinel to love
Through ever changing years.
The flotsam and the-jetsam of A noisy world go by;
But heart in heart, and hand in hand
Adversity defy.
A youthful scribe salutes a song
Of heavenly melody
A song of fifty golden years
Of perfect harmony.

Surrounded by a large group of friends, and all of their children, Mr. and Mrs. M. T. Edwards celebrated informally in their home on Wednesday evening, November 30, the occasion of their fiftieth wedding anniversary. A full course mid-day dinner was served to the members of their immediate family, and open house was held throughout the evening.
The program consisted of a prayer by Rev. McGarvey, followed by several appropriate and beautiful vocal selections by Mr. Howard Channing, who was accompanied by Mrs. Virginia Mette. Under the direction of a most capable soloist and "cheer leader" as well as the peppy music of a quintet of stringed instruments played by Austin boys, impromptu activities soon held full sway, and the enthusiasm carried over well into the evening after refreshments had been served. Mr. and Mrs. Edwards were presented with many beautiful and useful gifts as well as many beautiful flowers.

Mr. and Mrs. B. B. Daniels, daughters, Rita, Elpha and Aletha, and Paul Doane of Knoxville, Pa.;
