CELEBRATED S5th BIRTHDAY

Mrs. Annie P. Williams, who re-
sides on Causey avenue, celebrated
her eighty-fifth birthday on Friday,
August 9th. Mrs. Williams is in the
best of health and most remarkable
for her age. She does not leave her
home due to the fact that she enjoys
seeing her friends there and having
them visit her. Many of her friends
called in person or by telephone to
congratulate her on her natal day,
while she was also the recipient of
numerous cards which she appre-
ciated greatly.

60-grain perfect ball pink pearl in
Black river, ON Julia Dean Bar, below
Pocahontas Friday. The gem is said
to be worth in the neighborhood Of
$500.
