annual picnic to Coal Kiln corner Satur-
day and it was jolly party that left

The football game was of the kicking
kind, and two large footballs and three
gas balls were constantly flying through
the air, and kept all who were out on the
grounds lodging. 1t was participated in
by both ladies and gentlemen.
The croquet games were very interest
ing and exciting, and honors were about
even in the different contests, but the
shots of Mrs. Captain York, Mrs Edward
Foss and Mrs Findley were frequently
applauded.
In the ring toss Mr. Edward Robinson
and Mrs. Lizzie Pettes were tied for high
est number and decided to toss off the tie
at the next picnic.
The baseball game was very amusing
and was witnessed by the members who
were seated in the barges, which were

and gave it up. The features of the game
were the home run by Captain York, the

the viands and were loud in their praises
The party arrived home about Z o'clock,
tired, but all declaring it the best of the
many picnics enjoyed by this enterprising
lodge. The success Of the occasion was
largely due to the untiring efforts of
