ana NelPnDOrS surprise lnem
Mr.. and Mrs. William r. Davis, on
North Main Street, observed quietly
their fftieth wedding anniversary
Monday, last, the 9th inst. Mr.. Da-
Wis presented his wife with a substan-
tial check. Owing to the condition
of Mrs. Davis health they had not
planned to make an occasion of it
for they have many friends whom
they would like to have enjoyed the
event with them, but that evening
unbeknown to them about fifteen of
their neighbors dropped in and offered
their congratulations and good wishes.
There was a little repast served and
at the close of the evening Mr.. John
P. Hudson arose and read a few vers-
es he composed which were delight
fully received by Mr.. and Mrs. Davis.
Not many of Mr.. Hudson's friends
knew he possessed poetic ability and
his verses, therefore, made the chit
of the evening. They are as follows:
Annie" and Bill" went on a trip
For fifty years just like a whip.
Annie was thrifty. and liked to work,
And Bill was never known to shirk.
For fifty years they trod lfe's path together
In fair. in cloudy. and stormy weather.
In friendly spirit they've been good neighbors,
As they travelled along in this worlds labors,
Until they have arrived at this half hundred
And they agree they've never blundered.
May they have a number of years,
Without any cause for regret or tears.

MEETING TO BE HELD IN CLAY
TON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 5

to Represent Kent County on State
Committee of Grain Producers

The grain producers in Delaware

purpose Of handling the grain on a

explained to a larger number of farm
! ers in the state. 1t is with this view
in mind, therefore, that two meetings
have been arranged for Kent county

growers as possible attend these
meetings which will be addressed by
Mr.. Remsberg. One Of these meet
ingS will be held in the office of the
Delaware State Farm Bureau in Do

office in Clayton on Tuesday evening
May 5, at the same hour. Mr.. Harr!

ed to represent Kent county on tht
committee of grain producers from
the State to take charge of this work
but it will require the assistance ant
cooperation of several other interest
ed farmers to place this Organization
in d position where it can be of benefi
to the grain growers of this state. l
is therefore of great Importance tha
the interested farmers Of the count.
attend these meetings at Dover and a
Clayton to learn how this Graf
Marketing Company can be of assis
tance to them in securing highe
prices for their grain each year.
