In these times of diurnal divorces It'doea one's heart good to see an old couple standing together, ready and willing to undergo the trials and' tribulations of life, to act as prop and help meet to each other, t be the ever watchful companion through the Journey.Such a love has blessed Mr.and Mrs. Christopher Stadler who at their home, 1136 South Seventh Street,are today celebrating the golden wedding anniversary of their marriage.The observance of the anniversary is In the nature of a family reunion and at which children, grand children and great grand children are pesHUt; and the home is indeed a happy one. At 8 o’clock Solemn High Mass was. celebrated at St. Boniface church by Rev. Father Pell and many friends of the bride and groom were present. After the service, the home was thrown open to friends and neighbors and Joyous pleasure reigns supreme, Mr. and Mrs. Stadler recelvlug their guests .with welcome greeting that testifies a love of association and friendship.Fifty years ago at a little hamletin Bnxony, Germany, a country ladand a blushing comely lass stood before the miuister of God and exchanged the solemn vows that-united their destinies and made them man aud wife. Today, at the gathering as they look upon the four generations assembled, their thoughts must revert baek to the time of half a.century ago when they started in life together. Then they were rich only in each other’s love—a love whose flame burns brighter to-dayjplt; at the close of fifty years of wedded life, than on that eventful day when they faced the world without money, but with good health, and now they have reached the evening of life with a comfortable competency and can look forward to the enjoyments of comfort and peace in the remaining years of life.Mr. and Mrs. Stadler have been residents of Manitowoc county forty five years Leaving their native land in 1856, they came to Amer-lo ijand Wisconsin Bettlmg at Two Rivers, where they continued to reside a number of years and then removed to Neshota.
