Married so Years.

Last Friday, Aug. 30, was the thir-
tieth wedding anniversary Of Mr..
and Mrs. 0. G. Luther. About forty
of their friends were invited to cele-
brate the occasion with them. The
dining room of the Hotel Austin was
transformed and handsomely decora-
ted for the purpose and guests were
met and welcomed by Mr.. and Mrs.
Luther at the entrance. Music,
singing and inquiries of the married
men concerning the color and texture
Of their wives wedding gowns, took
place, and the latter feature did not
show up the memories OF the bene-
diets in way to be proud of either.
Elaborate refreshments were then
served after which the guests depart
ed wishing their host and hostess
many returns of the day.

Park is thronged with motor cars, as
it used to be in sprinEtime when
polo was the order OF the day and
spectators afoot crowded in about the

On days when two or three flyers
are up or when an exhibition by some
noted foreign aviator has been pre-

enough TO be troublesome. and Fifth

no greater traffic problems than does
the driveway about the polo grounds.
