The pleasant home of Mr.. and Mrs.
John 3. Cook of Greensboro was the
scene of very enjoyable occasion on
the afternoon of Nov. 14th when
about 125 of their friends and relatives
assembled in honor of their 45th we'd
ding anniversary. Dainty refresh
ments of sandwiches, cake, coffee and
cocoa, were served, after which Mr..
Cook expressed in very fitting terms
his appreciation and gratitude to
the friends, and especially the young
people, for taking the pains to visit
them on this anniversary. He had
