RECEPTION GIVEN TO
BRIDE AND GROOM
Residents OF Murphy Tender their
Congratulaiions TO Mr. and
Mrs ii. l.. Reid.

Murphy people always enjoy them
selves. Even tradition points with
pride to the social gatherings of the
Applegate as far back as the days of
the Crescent City freight teams, aud
Why shouldn't they be happy? They
have every surrounding to make them
so. II the ceaseless song Of flowing
waters, the odor Of an endless forest,
the sunlight reflected from the snow
capped hills, together with a moral
nature and a satisfied conscience would
not produce happiness, then this earth
hasn't the conditions necessary to its
development,
That the people of our neigbborhood
understand the fact that to be happy
ones self is TO make others glad, was
fully shown last Monday night when
more than fifty of their friends gath
cred at the home OF the newly welded
Mr.. and Mrs. II. /. Reid.
No, it couldn't have been a chari-
vari. for that awfully spelled word to
us means all the horrible. unesrthly
and supernatural sounds the human
ear is capable of recording, and like
football and pugilism, stands for the
lack of oivilizati II yet to overcome
barbarism in the human makeup.
I.....I 90 t,urfnn, th.. ufdtur, off rho
house, breaking the windows, or blast
ing up the doorstep, the presence of
the visitors was announced by singing.
They were met at the door and invited
in by the jovial Mr. Reid who, with
his new wife, received the well wishes
of the crowd some of the older ones
speaking from the knowledge of what
such congratulations mean; the
younger ones knowing not and worry
.ng not over the meaning Of such
wishes, and others of us caring to
learn that mystic meaning but having
as yet found no teacher.
After the congratulations carefully
prepared program of recitatiOns, vocal
and instrumental music was rendered 4;
then came the time honored treat ,
of the bride and groom which consisted
uf bountiful supper of oysters, sand
witches, pickles, pies, cakes and coffee.
At late hour the company wended
their way homeward, each with tie in-
ward desire that every person of every
clime might feel aS contented, have ~
many friends, and live in as favored II
community as was the good fortune of
the residents of Murphy.
May time never dim the memory..oi
this new year to Mr. and Mrs. Reid.
May each succeeding year with its
trials and its joys, its hopes and its
fears be as happily commenced as 1906,
aud although the rapid recurrence of
new years day briggs the inevitable
truth that the sp.n Of life is shorten.
ing, may it also impress us with the
fact that to live is more fearful than
to die and that mans goodlv inti0enoe
stops not at the tomb.
