JOHNSTON LETTER.
Advertisers Christmas Edition
Admired, Beautiful Silver
Wedding, Mary Ann
Buie Chapter

We were made to realize that
Christmas was truly at hand when
the last issue of The Advertiser was
unrolled. The frontspiece, with
"Old Santa" and all his accom-
paniments was beautifully and ap-
propriately gotten up, as well as the
entire edition, and it has been
heartily enjoyed by both old and
young. The Advertiser is one of
the finest county papers issued and
its arrival is always welcome.
| On last Friday Mr.. and Mrs. A.
NJ. Nickerson celebrated their silver
wedding in a very. happy manner.
In response to beautiful invitations
done in silver and white, about rs
friends gathered to celebrate the
occasion.
The guests were received by Mr..
and Mrs. .Claud Lott, and ushered
into the parlor to greet the happy
bride and groom of 25 years, who
stood in an alcove decorated with
ferns, and circling across the top
the dates, lss4-l9o9, in large silver
letters. Miss Maud Nickerson and
Mr.. Charlie Nickerson stood on
either side of their parents.
After the assembling of all, Rev.
NJ. L. Lawson, pastor; invoked the
continued blessings of the Heavenly
Father upon this home and prayed
that no misfortune might befall the
inmates.
Some beautiful vocal and instru-
mental music was listened to, and
the selection, "Silver Threads
Among the Gold," sung by Mrs. L.
Q. Latimer and Miss Dosia Wertz,
was especially enjoyed. During
the evening a sumptuousi wedding
feast was served, and upon leaving
the dining hall, master Wat2n
Nickerson and little Miss Fran ses
Lott presented each QUE with,
small silver bell, with lss4-l9O9 on
it as souvenir. The gifts sent in
by loving friends were many and
made a beautiful display.
1 At the close of the evening the
guests departed with good wishes
| for Mr.. and Mrs. Nickerson that as
they went hand in hand through
life their pathway might always be
strewn with roses and sunshine.
