Yocum Cele brate Golden Wedding Bride's Mother Is There Share Happiness. to GOLDEN WEDDING COUPLE'S TIPS TO JUNE BRIDES. Don't get the idleness habit. Keep separate bank accounts, if possible. Be honest, industrious and un selfish. Work hard the first few years. Be tidy and clean. Learn to give and take. Don't be self -centered. Forget there is a divorce law during the first five years. June brides take note! Fifty years ago a lad and a lass met. married and lived happy ever after wards, and yesterday they held a golden wedding celebration. The bride's mother was there, and the chat during the afternoon was worth a place in any June bride's notebook. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver C. Tocum were the principals in the golden wedding yesterday at their home, 269 East For tieth street. Two score and more rela tives and friends assembled to con gratulate them and shower them with good wishes. What would you teu June bridesT they were asked. Well, sir, the secret of married hap piness should be learned by all June brides and bridegrooms, spoke up Mr. Yocum. "I don't like to give advice. because, as a rule, no one wants it, and most people resent its being offered, but I will give the watchwords for those who would like to have and hold happiness. They are 'honesty, industry and unselfishness. Mr. Yocum Wed at 16. 'Bless his heart," put in Mrs. Yocum, who, by the way, was Ann Robertson, kin of several of the real pioneers of Portland, "he's always been unselfish. and we've both been honest and Indus trious." Mrs. Yocum would say to the June brides: "Don't get into a temper and get angry and say 'I 11 have a divorce' the first time things don t suit you. Just think it over. "The trouble with most girls is they want their own way and the men the same. "Both are too headstrong. "They should learn to give and take and not be so self-centered. She was only 16 when, as Ann M. Robertson, of Yamhill County, she met Oliver Yocum at the Good Templars lodge and he fell in love with and mar ried her. but she knew the value of dollar and knew how to work. We've both kept our separate bank accounts." said Mr. Yocum as he told his friends the secrets of happy mar ried life. "How does any man expect his wife to have any business sense or to love him and respect herself," he asked, "If she has to come and say 'please give me a few cents to buy something for dinner?' and then have him answer, 'Where is that dime I gave you last week?' Pioneers Settled In Yamhill. Mr. Yocum came to Oregon in 1847 and the Robertson family arrived in 1853. They 'settled in Yamhill County and were pioneers in all the good meaning of the word. They were among the founders or the community in which they lived. For 23 years Mr. Yocum was known to all travelers who visited Mount Hood, where he acted as guide. He knew every crag and cranny of the mountain and all the country round about, and, he says, could go there now on the darkest night and never miss a step. Incidents and stories of his life there he tells simply but in a manner most interesting. While he was a guide, estimating timber and roaming the out-of-doors, M rs. Yocum was in charge of the hotel. They both worked. "Why, we couldn t get along without work," declared Mrs. Yocum, and her husband added, "That's right, we hope to die in harness. It would drive us mad to be idle. That's what's the mat ter with most people who are unhappy and who think they are ill and miser able; they don't work hard enough." Now Mr. Yocum is compounder and dispenser and has charge of the stock room at the North Pacific College. Be fore he ever went to Mount Hood he was a photographer worked for I. G. Davidson at First and Yamhill streets years. ago. He is a student, always studying and improving himself, his wife says. It's never too late to learn. they declare. Mn. Yaotm'l Mother Present. Mrs. Yocum's mother, aged nearly 86 was among those present at the sur prise party yesterday. "It isn t every girl' has her mother for a guest at her golden wedding anniversary. proudly remarked Mrs. Yocum. Rela tives and friends came in motors from Clackamas, Yamhill and other nearby counties and with them they brought the best of "eats" and a handsome gold watch and chain for each of the hon ored ones. The house was a bower of golden flowers and a large basket of yellow Iris was sent with the love and best wishes of the north Pacific Col lege and the dean and faculty all went to pay their respects. Mrs. Yocum wore a white dress, just as fresh and neat and trim as could be. "She's al ways like that," said her husband, "al ways tidy and a wonder or a house keeper. Well, come again," as the guests departed, "come and help us celebrate the next anniversary." Mr. Yocum has been a reader of The Oregonian since its first issue. He had copy of volume l, numoer l, out n was stolen from him, he says, together with some famliy heirlooms. The his torical relics he owns he plans to give to the Oregon Historical Society. WOMAN SEES FATAL DIVE Evidence of Suicide of Dr. Miller Is Given by Festival Visitor. The funeral of Dr. J. H. Miller, who committed suicide by throwing himself from the office of Dr. J. C.
