A GOLDEN WEDDING.

Mr.. and Mrs. j. B. West, Sr., of Liber-
ty, celebrated their fiftieth marriage an
niversary on last Saturday evening with
their children, grandchildren and several
of their friends. The celebration was
most enjoyable and delightful to all who
were present. The supper prepared fer
the occasion was sumptuOus, and with the
various floral decorations, was a thing
OF beauty. The presents given Mr. and
Mrs. West by their friends were tasteful
and handsome. Among those present
from distance were Misses Ora and
Annie Love, of Raleigh, Josie Love and
Bertha Lloyd, of Winston, Madames H.
b. Jones and children, of Pittsboro, G. ID.
Martin and children, Of Rockingham;
Messrs. Z. A. Griffin and B. |. West, of
Sanford w. b. Petty, of Goldsboro, Mr..
and Mrs. / f West and children, of
Greensboro, and others
Mr. West was born in 1927, in Chatham
county. On March 13, 1851, he was mar
ried to Miss Julia Petty, of his native
county, with whom he has lived a happy
life. Bro. Vests home is truly an ideal
Christian home. In it the Holy Scriptures
are honored and adorned and our Lord
beautifully magnified. This home has
fallen under my immediate observation
for about two years, and if there is any
in contrary to Christian religion l have
failed to see it. but on the other hand,
in the hearts of both parents and chill
dren / have found exemplified Christ like
dispositions. Mr.. and Mrs. West have
had nine children, seven of whom are
living. May these good people live to
celebrate their diamond wedding, is my
prayer and desire.

Substantial Food the Kind the French
President Like.
Besides his salary Of $3.50, 900 a year.
the president Of France has a civil
list OF $126.OO 0 a year and an allow
ance Of $780, 900 a year for travelling ex-
penses. This allowance for travelling
expenses was voted to Marshal Mac
Mahon to keep him from running
wild" with the Bonapartists, but he
never touched a franc Of 1t. It was
allowed to accumulate until M. Grevy
became president, when that worthy
drew the arrears and pocketed them.
The allowance for travelling expenses
Is largely clear profit, for the presi-
dent travels free, and all he disburses

Of tips. He Is exceedingly generous
in regard to tips--as we'll he may.
In spite of his large income Presi-

there Is q handsome set OUT but the
fare Is more substantial than luxur-

according to what guests are to be
present. When only ordinary people
have been invited to partake Of the
presidential hospitality the cost is
about 81 a plate. When a lot OF really
first chop" people are to be present
the cost Is SO a plate. and when a Wis
iting royalty is coming to dinner the
cost goes up as high as IS a plate. The
dinners are supplied partly by a pastry
cook shop and partly by the kitchen
force OF the palace. After dinner the
wife Of M OF the officers OF the pres
idential household slips out and holds
q consultation with the chef, at which
1t Is decided what Is to go from the
dining room TO the servants table and
what Is to be fixed up for tomorrow's
luncheon. Dishes supplied from the
pastry cook shop and not broken are
taken back at a reduced price. Yet
