family, and his wife, whom he
married two years ago in Arkansas,
this being his first visit home since
he Joined the ranks of the Beue-

time with Mr.. Jones parents, and
the remaining members of the

points, including Mr.. and Mrs. }.
L. tones of Mercedes and o. EN-
Jones of Hidalgo, also came home
to meet the new sister and give
the newly married pair welcome.
Mrs. Jones had made extensive
preparations for the home gather
ing of her sons and daughters,
and when the entire seventeen
were gathered about the long table
with its snowy linen and tempting
viands, the father and mother at
either end must have felt truly
happy at being surrounded once
more by all of their children.
1t was a joyous occasion, and
one which will be treasured in the
memory of the participants as
long as life shall last.
