OF truth, the CaledOnians know well
how to entertain their friends.
El Campo, one of the most pleasant and
popular summer resorts in the State, was
the scene of this particular very enjoyable
entertainment yesterday. II was cap
tured by the members of the St. Andrews
Society. the well-known Scottish organiZa-

gramme rendered.
The commencement of the games was
announced by the ascension of a balloon

evening there was sport for everyone.
There were ra es of every conceivable
kind. Races for boys, for girls, for men
aud for women; three-legged races aud
sack races.
Prizes were also given for tug-of-war
contests, boat races and the best bouquet
of flowers gathered on the grounds. There
were also the old-fashioned grab-bag
prizes for the ladies.
The little folks were not forgotten. and
under the care of courteous attendants
they were gathered around the games en-
closure, where they could enjoy the sports
ana be free from danger. R,ch one was
given some little token in remembrance of
st. Andrews picnic.
The management of the games was per-

and the winners of the first prizes last
year were debarred in that particular game
this year. The prizes were distributed at
the conclusion of each contest. and the de-
cisions of the Judges in each case were
heartily approved.

guests came from the Scottish music dis

Golden Gate Park band. National airs,
strathspeys and reels were rendered by
accomplished pipers in full 81 ghland CO.'S
