Birthday- Hook, William V.

Mr. and Mrs. W.V. Hook entertained a large number of relatives and friends at a noon luncheon Sun. in the city park in honor of Mr. Hook's 72nd birthday anniversary. Gov. Clyde M. Reed had been invited up for a short talk. He arrived about an hour later than expected and many people had left the gathering before his arrival. However he spent a delightful hour following his talk on topics of interest to the pioneers and their descendants, in meeting the individuals in the gathering. Gov. Reed is an interesting talker.

The city band played a number of selections early in the afternoon.

Mr. Hook who is the oldest native born citizen of Shawnee county had the time of his life greeting old friends from his boyhood home at Tecumseh and scores of others from communities surrounding Rossville.
