their first marriage anniversary by
inviting few of their friends to
enjoy with them a six o'clock barbe-
cue on last Thursday evening at a
quiet neat spot two miles from Gale
donia, known as the Goolsby Springs.
1t is an ideal spot for such a gather
ing. There is strip of ground shad-
ed by giant oaks and other timber and
nearby a spring of fine sparkling
water comes gushing from the hill
side. During the evening there was
a social converse and forgetfulness of
care and toll for everybody, and every
body seemed determined to make the
most of the true southern hospitality
of these good people, while nature
lent her hand to the festivities by
providing one Of those bright August
evenings combined with the most de-
lightful atmosphere. And these pos
sessed one of those gala evenings
which give us greater faith in human
ity and makes us feel that life is
better worth the living. May there
be many more bright pleasant anniver-
saries for this popular young couple
just starting out on life's voyage. 1t
is needless to say that the memory of
this happy gathering of friends and
neighbors will ever remain green in
the memory of all those present.
