Mrs. EVELYN GIBBS GIVEN
PARTY AT BUXTON

Mrs. Evelyn Gibbs was guest
of honor Friday pm. at surprise
going-away party given by the
Buxton W.S.C.S. While she was
visiting a sick member the others
gathered at her home with gifts
and refreshments. She returned to
find II ladies to express their re-
grets at her leaving. Mrs. Gibbs
has been active in church, school
and other community work where
she could be of assistance, and
has spent three years here. Every
one loves her and will miss her
very much. She was never too
busy to do church work and to
visit with the sick and shut-ins.
We wish her all the good luck
she deserves as she leaves Bux-
ton, making her home in Florida.
Present at the party were Mrs.
Sue Williams, Audrey Robinson,
Pearl Midget, Gladys Dickerson,
Dina Daley, Patsey Robinson,
Retta Dudley, Tittley, Odessa
Gray, Laura Hooper, Cynthia Roll
linson, Evelyn Gibbs, and three
ladies from the Hatteras church
representing their group. Mrs. Lii
lie Peele, Maud Austin, and the
minister's wife, Mrs. Sparrow. Be-
cause of illness and being away
from home at this time there
were several members unable to
attend. Mrs. U. B. Jennette is a
patient in the Albemarle Hospital
in Elizabeth City and Mrs. Cora
Casey is confined to her home. We
all wish them speedy recovery.
