A MARRIAGE ANNIVERSARY
 If stranger had been driving through Roxbury on Tuesday eveing, June Il, he would have paused at the Congregational parsonage in surprise. All was light and jollity, the entire community was gathered there, regard less of creed, to wish Rev and Mrs c. D. Chunn many happy returns on the fifth marriage anniversary, their wooden wedding" There were many pretty flowers, among them conspicu- ous bouquet of bride roses, the gift of Master Bennett Preston, and pretty gifts, suitable to the occasion, In the chapel where the refreshments were served, on appropriate wooden dishes, as unique wedding cake with five can dles was displayed. The figures, 1902 1907 were on it, also an elaborate frost ing apparently of cocoanut, but alas this structure was delusion and a snare as it was of wood and sawdust and caused much merriment. No one cared that it was only to be looked at as they were regaled with sandwiches and cake, lemonade and ice cream. During the evening generous purse gathered together by Mrs David Gil lette was presented to the happy cou- pie from their many friends assembled, with happy little impromptu speech by Mrs Joseph Colt, to which MI Chunn responded in highly felicitious manner. MT and Mrs Chunn are very popular, as was attested by an evening long to be remembered.
