WOOD HAVE GOLDEN
WEDDING
Celebrate Fifty Years of Mar

Near St. David

Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Wood, of
st. David, celebrated their golden
wedding, the fftieth anniversary
of their marriage. Wednesday aft
ernoon at St. David. A large as
semblage of friends and relatives,
quite a number from Benson,
were present as guests at the most
enjoyable occasion. Friends be-
gan to arrive about noon, and it
was soon seen that the crowd
would be too large to be aceommo-
dated In their dwelling house, SO
they had recourse to the church
building about a hundred yards
away where the celebration took
place.
The wedding was gone through
with again, Rev. J. e. Ferris, of
Benson, performing the ceremony,
the bride arrayed In white amid a
church decorated with flowers ia
profusion and the building we'll
filled with the invited guests.
After the ceremony there was sing
ing and general good time.
Dinner was served at about two
o'clock--and such dinner
Everything in the way of good
things to eat anyone could posi-
bly, desire. Long tables were
spread and filed with the most
tempting of edibles. Chicken in
every style, meats and vegetables,
pies, cakes, pastry, sweets and
everything in the greatest pro-
fussion. The visitors did full
justice to the tempting repast.
Mr.. Wood made an interesting
talk, reminiscent of his long life,
which was highly appreciated and
enjoyed. In all he gave credit to
his estimable wife for the good he
had accomplished, saying that
without her sustaining help and
encouragement he would have
been powerless in his church work.
