years, respectively, after having
celebrated the seventy-first an
niversary of their marriage at
their home. At the anniversa-
ry celebration there were, in adj
dition to scores of guests, five
children, eight grandchildren
and sexteen great-grandchil-
dren.
Mr.. and Mrs. House were mar
ried in 1845, when the BRIDE
groom was nineteen and the
bride sixteen. eve were very
much in love when we were mar
ried, and we are just as much
in love with each other now as
we were seventy-one years ago.
they declared. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. House, in spite of their age
have excellent sight and "the in
vrmities of age The former
believes that after man has
passed the half century mark he
should b allowed some prviile-
ges, and therefore he revels in
the luxury of using as much
tobacco as he wishes. He never
touched tobacco in any form be-
for he was fifty.
