Spring Park

The past week has been we'll
filled with plcnics and parties,
the first being an ice cream party
given by MIR. and Mrs. Fred Ca
boon to some of the young people
on the evening of the Fourth and
was much enjoyed by those pres
emit.
Miss Bertha Strunk gave
watermelon party the evening of
July 9TH to both old and young,
and after being treated to some
fine instrumental music for the
first course, the company were
invited outside, where, under the
wide spreading grape arbor, a
most pleasing as well as tempt
ing sight met the vision, the
whole place being made brilliant
by lanterns suspended from above.
In the center was large table
just grooming under it's weight of
most luscious, red water melons,
cut in quarters and arranged in a
circle, and each piece looked of
sufficient size to satisfy the long
ings of a whole family, while
there were water melons piled
here and there IN reserve to draw
from, and vines coming nearly to
the table that have made such a
growth since the rains began
that Mrs. Strunh remarked that
if they kept on growing they
would spread all over the Park
and they would have melons
enough to feed a regiment.
Games were played by the young
people and after a pleasant chat
with the older ones the company
dispersed feeling that they had
spent a most enjoyable evening.
Miss InCz Martin gave a birth
day party to several friends and
nelghbors on the evening of the
Sth. Interesting and amusing
games were played in which
nearly all present took part, after
which refreshments were served,
consisting of delicious ice cream
and cake, with Mr.. Duncan as
the genteel waiter. So pleasantly
and quickly did the evening pass
away, it was nearly midnight be-
fore the company separated, alter
wishing Miss Inez many happy
returns OF the day.
