Tho Haines township Sunday
school picnic, which was held in Wink
elblech's grove last Saturday was one
of the largest we ever attended. 1t is
estimated that 1000 people were on TIE
ground. The six sunday schools Of
said township combined themselves for
this picnic, and the people turned out
en- s,aSSe. The Farmers Store Band
furnished the music during the day.
The weather was just what could be
desired and so everybody was in good
spirits.
After the schools were seated in the
morning the exercises were opened by
prayer, followed by able addresses by
Rev. j. Tomlnson, Rev. j. A. Bright,
of Jersey Shore, Rev. 7. c. Weidemyer
and Rev. G. w. f. Siegel. The peo-
pie then dispersed for their dinners,
which were composed as usual at such
occasions of the choicest and best
things in large quantities.
The grove presented lively picture
in the afternoon, when everybody was
moving and talking pleasantly until
nearly evening, when the crowd went
to their homes well satisfied with the
enjoyments of the day.
