GOLDEN WEDDING

A beautiful observance of the gold
en- wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. John A.
Olson took place at their home at
Walnut Grove, Friday, April 6th
with a. one o'clock dinner and re-
ception during the afternoon and ev-
ening. The arrangements for the
observance had been made by the
children, and a most enjoyable day
and evening was spent by all.
All the children were present for
the golden wedding: the sons, Chas.
F. and A. w. of Walnut Grove and
Fred of Denham; and the daughters,
Mrs. C. A. Werner and family of
Strandburg, S D., Misses Lydia, Mary
and Lillian, and Miss Anna of Den
ham. Among the guests, there were
four who attended the wedding fifty
years ago, Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Lund,
Mrs. A. P. West and Mr.. August
Hult. Otu of town guests were Mr..
and Mrs. Rudolph Swanson of Scan
dia and Miss Rose Lundell of Clo-
quet.
The home was prettily decorated
with Sunbeam and Sunburst roses,
Southern SmilaX, Easter Lilies and
ferns.
A three course dinner was served
at one o'clock to relatives and old
time friends. Mrs. Chapman sang
two solos, accompanied on the piano
by Miss Kathryn Hesnault, and af-
ter dinner talks were made by Rev.
Paul j. A. Gustafson, Mr.. w. J. Nc
Donald, Rev. o. ]. Govig, Rev. R. K
Chapman and Miss Anna Olson. Mr..
Charles E. Lantz acted as toastmas-
ter.
The golden wedding couple receiv-
ed many beautiful gifts, including
many lovely articles and coins, and
a number of congratulatory kilograms

Mr.. and Mrs. John A. Olson were
married fifty years ago at the home
Of Mrs. Olson's mother in Johnson
vile, Mrs. OlsOn's maiden name be-
ing Miss Britta Maria Swanson. The
officiating clergyman was Rev. Car
Ryden of Bernadotte. They have
lived here ever since. For many
years they farmed on the south side
of Johnsonville and then about %
years ago moved to Walnut Grove
where Mr.. Olson was for some time
engaged in the implement business.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olson are among the
few pioneers left in the community
but are enjoying strength and gooc
health and enter fully into the COM
munity life, and their many friends
considered it privilege and an honor
to help this worthy couple observe
their golden wedding. The snow
