Willow Springs Picnic.

The 4th Of June was an appropriate
day for picnic. The people OF
Willow Springs, and surrounding
towns took advantage Of the fine
weather and came out to have a good
social time at the annual picnic held
by the L. NJ. church of Willow Springs
1t is safe to say that no one was dis
appointed but the good time expected
was realized. Dinner was provided
for all who desired 1t, and If any one
went away hungry it was their own
fault.
An interesting program was ar
ranged for the afternoon, and all who
took the opportunity to hear 1t were
we'll pleased with the speaking and
singing. Rev. Kent, Of the i. Nj.
church, and Rev. Straw, of the NJ. f.
church, both Of Mineral Point,
occupied the stand, and their remarks
were well given and the people well
appreciated them. Mr.. Hawkins and
other members of the Mineral Point
choir furnished some good singing.
Our glee club was somewhat crippled
but did the best they could. Mrs.
Hendra, in her admirable way recited
"The Railroad Crossing" and was
tncorcd.
We acknowledge the kindness of
j. G. Martin, for the use of his large
tent, in which the people were com
fortably seated while the program was
carried out.
