Last Friday about 50 from Ore Hill and 9 from Lakeville availed themselves of the Sundfiy School excursion to Twin Lakes. The day was fine and all report grand time. Capt Bartle, wife and thirteen children and three grand children did much to make the occa- sion success especially as the Capt procured the steamer, Jessie, of MT Bishop, and gave us all turn around the lake.

We would sooner think the meeting had been planned by the young people, as all seemed to be entertaining the others. Our folks were all so we'll filled that even our pastor cared not to take tea with his old parishioners. :. Supt Opdyke, Road Master Merrill and M. B.
