Next Friday, April 24th, Mr. and 
Mrs. R. E. Newman will abserve the 
25th anniversary of their marriage 
at their home on Pleasant street. 
No formal observance will be made 
of the occasion other than the gath- 
ering of a few of their relatives and 
friends. The anniversary will mean 
all the more to Mrs. Newman inas- 
much as her daughter Mrs. Cora M. 
Maedonald and four children who 
have just come on from the Cana- 
dian northwest to make their home 
here, will be with her.
