Phoenix tribune., 1919-09-20

were sent TO all of their friends invit-
ing them to be present Wednesday
evening at the A. NJ. E. church The
Mobiles were kept in darkness, but
everyone else knew the object of the
meeting. A large crowd gathered and
Mr.. Phil Green arose to announce the
object of the meeting. He began by
saying that a report had leaked out
about some scandal in which Mrs
Noble was implicated. The meeting,
he said, was to clear up the matter
before the public and put stop to
those scandalous reports that were 60
ing around. Mrs. Mobiles eyes filled
with tears and her head dropped as
though something awful was about to
be revealed. She is the lady who
writes the Sense and Nonsense ar
ticles for the Tribune, and she rea-
soned that someone had excepted TO
her writings and was seeking revenge.
Mr.. Noble was as much in the dark as
his wife, but he was too much of q
man to cry, so he got "all het up and
deem burrows were seen to form on his
brow. Mr.. Phil Green continued
his speech in roundabout way, pay
ing no attention to the discontinue of
the Mobiles, finally ending his speech
with these words: The scandal is
this A report is current that Mr.. and
Mrs. Noble have been married twenty
nine years and we are assembled here
to celebrate their wedding anniver-
sary." You should have seen the look
of relief that came over their faces
and their change from anxiety to gen.
uine surprise. The guests all brought
penny for each year of their mar
riage and these with other compli
ments were showered upon them. Ice
cream and cake. and other delicacies
were then brought in and all enjoyed
sumptuous spread. 1t was the most
complete surprise party ever given
and no small amount of credit is due
Mrs. Luada Walker for her skill in
managing the affair The Mobiles, who
reside at q South 4th avenue, are still
wondering how it all happened.
