THE FLESHERTQN ADVANCE Wednesday, February 19, 1936 ! : l-"'*, :v^ LOGALDISTRICT NEWS CENTRELINE Another blizzard hit this commun- ity on Thursday afternoon and night which blocked the roads again.

The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Fred Taylor. Owing to bad roads our pastor, Rev. Bushell, has not been with us for three Sundays. He has a long hard trip every Sunday, about 20 miles or more, and on roads such as these a horse cannot make the trip In the short time he has to do it in. On Friday e^ning a large number of friends and neighbors gathered at the home of Charles Weatherall and showered the happy young couple. A â-¼erp pleasant evening was spent and all returned home happy in spite ol bad roads. While Robt. Osborne, John and Victor were working in the bush on Saturday afternoon, John met with a very painful accident. They had lodged a tree and John went up to try to get it down.

Mr. Knox feelingly thanked every one for their presence, and kind wishes. The address: â€" Dear Father and Mother: What a joy and gladness it gives us to gather with you to day to! celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of I your marriage, we are indeed grate- , ful to God who has spared you both to reach this happy day. Many friends will turn back to the day you happily started forth on life's way together, to-day you have reached the fiftieth mile stone along life's way, you pause, The backward gaze reveals many a joy and many a sacrifice, but yet with David of old you will say, "the lines have fallen to us in pleasant placesi. Surely goodness and mercy have followed us all the days of our life." This anniversary gives us an opportunity to show our sincere grat- itude and appreciation of your labors, love and tender care for us in the early years of our lives. And now, mother and father, we ask you to accept these little gifts, not for theii value, but as' a token of our good wishes to you both, and we trust they will give warmth and comfort, and ;ibove all, our wish is that you will enjoy many more years of health and happiness together. Fifty years ago today You happily ventured forth On Matrimonial Seas. Skies were not always sunny, .^nd often rough the weather, Rut down the road together You have travelled many a mile. Every grey day turned to golden In the sunshine of love's smile. Now the path before you beckons Through the pleasant autumn land; May you follow where it leads you. Still together, hand in hand.
