THE MAY DAY PICNIC.
Scholars Off for the Banks of the
UmatilIa

There was hustle, hurry and excite
ment in nearly every home in Athena
Saturday. This hustle and excite
ment commenced at an early hour, and
was caused by the anxious youngsters
who are at this moment enjoying all the
fun and frolic OF a May day picnic, on
the Umstilla river, near Oayuse station.
At four O'Clock in the morning, the
school house bell changed out 10 brazen
tones. announcing that it was time to be
up and preparing for the eventful trip.
At 6 O'CLOCK, the bell was again rung,
t ling one and all to come 10 the school
house where the wagons were waiting.
Starting from the school house, prompt
ly at clock, the procession came down
Third street to Main, where several songs
were sung by the scholars, accompanied
by Miss Eloise Huntington on an organ
which was in one Of the big wagons.
After salutation to the stars and
stripes, the Athena public school cry was
given in chorus, and then the picnicers
we're on their way to the river for day
Of pleasure.
Three big wagons, on which were
comfortable seats, made by Professor
Reid himself, and drawn by four horse
teams, we're required to transport the
scholars to the picnic grounds. Those
wagons were decorated with flags and
bunting, and two Of them contained May
poles. The other contained an organ
and number of young lady singers.
These were not the only vehicles OF
transportation in the procession, by any
means. There were rs other wagons,
carriages and buggies, containing the
parents of many CT the scholars Several
country families were observed among
the picnicers, and many went direct from
their homes without coming to town.
Last, but not least, there was brigade
Of young horsemen, who had their ponies
decorated in many fsshy colors. The
day is fine and the first annual May day
picnic of the Athena public schools viii
be nothing but grand success.
