Sunday)' October 14, was an other big day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wallace at Mo ravian Falls. A surprise birthday dinner for Grandpa Wallace has in late years become an annual event, so that it Is now almost Impossible to Inject the element of surprise Into It. He has learn ed to expect it and look for it, and would be disappointed If It didn’t come. This occasion was to celebrate Grandpa Wallace’s 82nd birth day, which comes on October 18. He was expecting the dinner to be next Sunday, the 21st, and to that extent his children and friends were able to surprise him —by having It a week earlier. It was the morning of the first frost In this section, and the air was cool and bracing. During the forenoon hours the cars kept coming, and by 11:30 about all the parking space around the house was filled, and a fine crowd of people—children, relatives and friends— spent the next hour or so In friendly 'and familiar chat, congratulating Grandpa Frank on being 82 years young, and always hunting up Grandma Mary and making her feel that the day was hers too. Their bright and pleased faces showed that they were en joying every minute of It. Silas Franklin Wallace Is the father of eight children—five daughters and three sons—all of them living except one. The first death in the family occurred June 17th, 1934, when Mrs. Cora Pearson was taken away. Mrs. Pearson was a semi-invalid for many years, but she always tried to be at the birthday dinners and the family reunions. The thought of her absence on this occasion gave to the day its only note of sadness. No doubt many silent thoughts travelled to the near by cemetery where she sleeps peacefully. At the dinner hour the good ladies brought out baskets and filled the long table to overflow ing with many good things to eat. Grandpa .and Grandma Wal lace were seated near the table. Miss Lucy Stout made a short but very splendid and appropri ate talk, and Mr. Z. D. Jackson, of Winston-Salem, offered pray er. Then of course the eating be gan, and there was more than a- plenty for all. Bobby Laws did a magic “dis appearing act” with a piece of cake, which shows that he will grow up to take Houdini’s place. Gray Jackson, standing on an over-turned box, had such a big piece of pie that he broke through the box, skinned his leg and dropped his pie. He said the loss of the pie was the worst part of it. It was noted that sev eral of the girls made repeated trips to the pickle jars until they were all empty. What is that old saying about love and pickles? Billie Dove Wallace, w'ho is going to be a movie ac tress when she gets as old as Shirley Temple, was disappoint ed that Bruvver Frank didn’t bring his moving-picture ma chine. Among those present from a distance were Mr. and Mrs. Cal vin Wallace and two daughters and one son, of Union county: Mrs. Margaret Lampley, of Mar shall, N. C.; Mr. and Mrs. Carl C. Wallace and family, of Wins' ton-Salem; Mr. and Mrs. Z. D. Jackson and family, of Winston- Salem. Others present were Mr. and Mrs. Monroe Wallace and family; Mr. and Mrs. Rell Wal lace hnd family: Mr. and Mrs Bud Lowe and family; Mr. and Mrs. Dock Davis and family; Mrs. Dora Laws and daughter; Mrs. Ada Laws and family; Mrs. Vedie jSloop and children; Mr, and Mrs. John Edminsten; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Sloop; Mr. Ed ward Parlier and daughter; Miss Lucy Stout, James Larkin Pear son and others. As the sun went toward the west the visitors departed, many expressing the hope that they might come back one year from now and find Grandpa and Grandma Wallace well and hear ty and ready for another big day.—Reported. Man Dim At^ Home Neir W. B. Pipkin and Attorney R. H. McNeill, of Washington, D. C., who were to have appeared on the program Friday, were de layed and could not be in the city at that time.
