On Sunday the annual family Thanksgiving dinner was enjoyed at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. P. Sanborn a few days early complimentary to the newly-weds, who left Tuesday morning for Council Bluffs.

Guests were the wedding party, the same guests who enjoyed the festivities on Saturday evening, and Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Sanborn of Lime Springs. A reception was held in the evening and ice cream and cake were served to neighbor friends.
