They vesided at Johnsburg for ten years, following which they moved to Minnesota, settling at Rich Prairie. Eight years later they moved to Little Palls, where they have shrce made their home. Hie golden wedding anniversary was celebrated at their home in this dty Sunday, when the children, grandchildren and great-grandchil­ dren and a few invited guests gath­ ered there to help them commemor­ ate the event. A 6 o'clock dinner was served the guests, the centerpiece at the table being a bride's cake with fifty candles. The rooms were pret­ tily decorated with yellow daffodils. Nine children were born to this union, seven of whom are still living. All the children were here Sunday with the exception of J. M. Blake of Minneapolis, who was unable to at­ tend. There are also twenty-nine grandchildren and three great-grand­ children. The guests present were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kiewel and sons, Dewey and Charles, of Crookston; Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Gravel and son, Peter, of Pierz; Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Blake of Sauk Rapids; M. B. Blake •wH Misses Mame and Adeline Blake at city; Mr. and Mrs. Jac Kiewel and Rev. J. P. Altendorf. Mr. Blake is seventy years of age and Mrs. Blake is sixty-six years of •(• and both are enjoying the best of Hie McHGnry high school basket ball five went down to Crystal Lake 'last Friday night, where they were taken into camp by the local five to the merry tune of 26 to 17. The students of these two schools have been bitter rivals when it comes to athletics for some years past and the rivalry was plainly vis- i ible the very moment the two teams took the floor last Friday night. Crystal Lake got the jump on the local outfit and thru hard and per­ sistent work they succeeded in keep­ ing the lead thruout, altho McHenry tried hard to overcome the lead that the home crew was able to affix dur­ ing the first half of the evening's melee. The first half ended with McHenry trailing their opponents by eleven points. To be exact, the score stood 15 to 4 when the referee's whistle sounded the dose of the first stanza. McHenry took the floor in the second half with a grim deter­ mination to make up for lost time and in this they were partially suc­ cessful as they succeeded in piling up thirteen points, while Crystal Lake accumulated but ten. But, as previously stated, the handicap gained by Crystal Lake in the first half was too much for McHenry to overcome* and our lads were obliged to leave the gym with the sting of-defeat as their reward for their efforts of the evening. However, the boys find some con­ solation in the hope that they will get another chance at Crystal Lake on the McHenry floor, where they feel that they will be afforded an ex­ cellent opportunity to avenge Friday night's defeat. The line-ups and scores of the two teams follow: Crystal Lake (26) C Thomas L. F. Lowell R. F. Andruss L. G. Cowan Hayford 2; Frett, 2; Executor's Notice Alford H. Pouse, Atty.
