A SURPRISE BIRTHDAY DINNER' On Sunday, May 10th, at tfhe home 1 of W. W. Harris, being the only son, we the children of Mrs. Ellen Harris, gave Mama- a surprise birth day dinner. We -are saw it was quite a surprise for she didn't even think of such a thing until about the last family arrived. Early in the morn ing her sister and husband came in Ur. and Mrs. J. A. Painter, and after awhile the children began (o arrive with their husbands and children, which were ' Mrs. C. M. Oakley, husband and children; Mrs. Bob Satterfield, husband and con; Mrs. Willie Forbush, husband and children; Mrs. Charlie L. Fouthee, husband and children; Mrs. Nick Frederick, husband and son. Mrs. Tack Cash, husband and children did not come, we knOw not why, but We sure was sorry, for they missed an enjoyable day that can never be recalled. We had with us four of .mama's sisters and husbands, with one ab sent. Others present with us -were Mr. and Mrs. Painter, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Jackson, Mrs. Emily Jones Mrs. Weldon Whitfield, Elder White the Baiptist preacher of Roxboro, and I'm sure he enjoyed the occas ion. Just before the noon hour we arranged a long table in the shade where we spread a bountiful din ner, after which we presented the presents, which were many and use ful. May God bless co-h one present and spare Mama many more such birthdays is our wish and sincere hope. God bless the family circle and draw them closer together is my prayer. ? The Children.
