"A Dam Picnic"

Last Thursday morning 3 wagons
loaded to their utmost capacity with
young people and large number on
horseback left town for the dam at
the head of the water works, bent on
having a picnic. They arrived at
at the dam, which is about 6 miles
from town, at IL o'clock, and at
once proceeded to investigate the sur
rounding country for suitable place
to spread the dinner. At last they
decided that the large rocks on the
bank Of the stream were most desir-
able, and the ladies proceeded to
spread one Of the most sumptious
feasts imaginable. Everything was
there that hungry picnicers could
desire, and plenty for everyone.
After dinner the crowd went on IA
trip up the stream, which displays
some Of as fine mountain scenery as
can be found anywhere. The
gigantic rocks on either side covered
with green moss, and the huge
boulders scattered in beautiful and
magnificent state Of chaos IN the
middle of the stream, with the water
whirling and tumbling around and
over them, and the trees with their
dark green foliage, made picture of
magnificent mountain scenery. which
the writer's pen is unable to describe.
AS they were going up the stream,
climbing over the rocks in places and
crossing the stream in others, it was
a frequent occurrence for members OF
the party to step on slippery rock,
let one foot in the water, and some
times both. but the girls said it went
with a dam picnic" and they didn't
care.
Late in the evening the crowd COM
pletely tired out returned to the dam
and in short while started for home,
where they arrived about 7 o'clock,
all saying they had never spent
a more enjoyable day.
The picnic was gotten up and
planned by Mr.. j. l.. Jennings, Miss
