With all the children grown and settled in homes of their own, Mr. | and Mrs. Rogerson had only pre- i pared a small but a very appetizing : dinner and expected a quiet day for the golden wedding anniversary. The 1 dinner was cooked, and Mr. and Mrs. Rogerson, following a custom of a number of years, went to church i services that morning. Her surprise was great when she returned horned and found the large number of un expected But always welcome visi tors. Much upset though she was when she saw the'large number there and realizing how far short the lone fowl would be in meeting the de mands at the noon-day meal. All was happiness for her and all the family and relatives when she learn ed that they had prepared a huge feast. Fifty years ago that day, the then young couple started out in life to gether. In a humble log cabin they founded their home, and from that beginning the couple strived ever on ward, better their own lot and rear ing six children as time passed on. Under greatly improved conditions, the couple continue to live at the old home place. The six children there for the an niversary were Mrs. Claudius Rob erson, of Jamesville; Mrs. W. S. Gur ganus, of Williamston; Messrs. J. S. Rogerson, of Kenly; A. 8., N. R., and C. G. Rogerson, of Bear Grass. ♦ Meeks Family Reunion Friends and relatives of Mr. and Mrs. VV. J.
