     "Mr. and Mrs. F. G. DAVIS, 200 East Commerce, will celebrate their 50th Anniversary (Friday, Oct. 27) today. They were married at Perryville, Ark., and lived there a short time before moving to Oklahoma in 1922. Mr. DAVIS was a farmer and in 1943 became an upholsterer with locations here and Mrs. DAVIS as seamstress.

     In 1966 the DAVISes retired from upholstering and now "do a lot of fishing and vacationing, mostly in Arkansas."

     The couple has five children: Grover DAVIS, Mrs. Carl A. SHORES, Sr., Mrs. Edwin MORGAN, all of Oklahoma City; Raymond DAVIS, Tulsa; Paul DAVIS, Westminster, Calif. They have 23 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren.
