Mildred and Bogart had been married for twentyfive years. Since swans mate for life, it was a blessing that they got along so well. The Bette Davis Actors Guild threw a party for the Swan Couple that was a smashing success. There were flowers arranged beautifully in gold doily bedecked vases, each tied with a bow. Lollypops and other hard candies were spread around the table in honor of their sweet reputation. The cake for all appearances looked like a birthday cake due to the candles, but it was, in fact, a twentyfifth wedding anniversary cake. It was decorated with hearts and stars. There was a gag gift from one of the other swan couples. A jar was filled with twenty five marbles for in case they lost theirs. The couple toasted with tea cups. A jazz band played in the background. Outside the building, the Korean flag waved proudly. Yellow birds acted as hostesses for the swans. There was love everywhere. It was a wonderful celebration for the couple known as the Korean Kissing Swans.
