The 55th wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Horn was celebrated with relatives and friends present, Tuesday afternoon, at the Memorial Home in Neillsville, where Mr. Horn has been a patient since March 24 of this year.

Mrs. Horn, the former Mary Woepse, and Henry Horn were married October 4, 1922, by the Rev. Otto Vriesen, pastor of the Immanuel Reformed Church in Greenwood. The ceremony took place at the home of her parents, where the Horns farmed after living in Thorp, the first two years of marriage. The farm was 8 1/2 miles northwest of Greenwood. Their present home for the past 1 1/2 years is located on the farm of their son, Lloyd.

Other children are Donald of Greenwood, and Mrs. Verne (Laverne) Vollrath of Janesville. They also have ten grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
