MN» T. WHAT AM THE ink. . V'*5 "" > The following account of a very pleasant surprise is taken from the Burlingame (Cal.) Advance of Oct. 27 issue. The couple referred to were former Me Henry residents, Mrs. Colby being a sister to Charles Wright of this place and Mr. Colby a son of our highly respected citizens, Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. Colby: One of the most pleasant eyenings in the history of Burlingame Chapter No. 275, Order of Eastern Star, was held on Saturday evening, October 21. A few of the members, having learned that it was the worthy matron's twen­ ty-fifth wedding anniversary, quietly prepared to celebrate it in a fitting manner, which proved to be a complete surprise to Worthy Matron Clara I. Colby and Senior Past Worthy Patron Fred T. Colby. Mrs. Colby being in attendance at the grand (chapter held in San Francisco during the week the lodge members were ablev to carry out their plans. A banquet had been pre­ pared in the newly completed banquet hall and after the close of the regular business meeting a wedding march was played by Sister Wisker, at which time it first dawned on Mrs. Colby that this was her silver wedding anni­ versary. At the request of Worthy Patron Bee be, Sister and Brother Colby led the march to the banquet room, followed by the newly wedded couple, Sister and Brother Berg, and members and visiting members of the order. The floral decorations of red and green were tastefully arranged and about seventy sat down to the table. A large wedding cake was placed be­ fore Sister and Brother Colby, which Uras cut by the worthy matron and passed to all at the tables. Worthy Patron Brother Beebe then in a few well chosen remarks presented to Sis- and Brother Colby, on behalf of the chapter, a silver Tern dish and table mirror. Altho taken by surprise, the worthy matron responded in a lovely manner, closing by repeating verses written her twenty-eight years ago by the one standing by her side. Brother Colby also responded and thanked the chapter for their loving kindness and good wishes. A visiting sister of the order, one of the first acquaintances made by Sister Colby on arriving in Burlingamci five years ago, then pre­ sented a token of love and esteem--a silver pie knife in shape of a trowel, hich was sincerely and lovingly ap­ preciated by Sister and Brother Colby. Words of congratulation were then ex­ pressed to the worthy matron, Brother Colby and the chapter by the newly elected and installed grand associate matron, Sister Addie I. Sleeper, who had honored Burlingame chapter with her first visit and for this special oc­ casion. A card of congratulation was presented to the worthy matron from Sister Mary E. Partridge, past worthy grand matron of the general grand chapter of the United States, and also verbal greetings were brought her from the new gTand officers and past grand officers of the grand chapter of the state of California, O. E. S. It was an evening that will long be re­ membered by those present and will be a cherished memory by the worthy matron and her good husband, senior past patron. CONGRATULATIONS. With hosts of friends, I would conspire To make your silver wedding bell Peal forth in sweetest chime. Your days would stretch if my desire Could work the' magic spell, Unto the end of time. (E. S. B.) May all surprises in the future be as thoroly enjoyed as the one just passed, is the sincere wish of COMMITTEE. mwm ttmwm . C11T SAM MEET M KEQOLAFT BOKTBLY . ^ Council Booms, Nov. 6. 1911.
