In Butte.

which to repose care free and away
from the scorching presence of the sun,
In this campaign society has succeed
ed in discovering an ideal spot-the
Columbia gardens. This is not the
only place contiguous to Butte, how
ever. where one or more or a whole
block, for that matter, can go and
enjoy the delights of nature. There
are the famous springs and resorts
are all patronized during this long
warm spell. They've forgotten all
about winter and its rigors, its long
rigors It's strange indeed how very
hard it is to satisfy human being.
Last winter people growled because
the snow and ice were here and warm
weather wasn't. Now they complain
because the warm weather is here and
ice is high. Verify Butte is a marvel
all around Every evening large par
ties go to the gardens and eat lunch
under the trees. Families are in the
majority. and the children before re-
firing for the night say, Give US this
day our daily trips to the gardens"
In the meantime the Golf club Is pre-
pairing grounds out near the cemetery
Here the game, the fad, will be played
Wy bultt tNpeTtS anu utNUttes. De-
sides this Is the bowling alley. This
diversion is the favorite ON the East
ern card. 1t is the rage, and Butte
Is falling in" The bowling alley will
be lit" for at least season or two.
A more jolly and social party has no,
gone out of Butte for a days outing
this season than the members of the
Hennessy Social and Benevolent asso-
citation that picnicked in the canyon IA
miles below the city last Sunday The
day and occasion were enjoyed by all,
but more especially by those of the
party who are spending their first
summer in the Rocky mountains, and
to whom a midsummer picnic under
the shadow of snow-capped mountains
was an experience pleasant and
unique. The party was chaperoned by
those experienced mountaineers. Mr.
and Mrs. John Flynn, who evidently
are familiar with every nook and
Granny in the mountains in this vicin-
ity Be that as it may, a more ideal
spot for basket picnic than they Sc
lected would be hard to find or mag
the. Judging from the extensive COM
missary provided by the young ladies
Of the party. they must have under
stood that they were out on a weeks
vacation, or possibly they had listened
TO exaggerated stories OF the appetites
of the picnickerE. One thing is GER
tain, more generous or highly ap-
preciated banquet is seldom seen. Take
1t all in all, the day will be long re-
membered as one of the particularly
pleasant ones in the history of the
Hennessy Social and Benevolent asso-
citation. Those comprising the party
were Misses Alice Thompson, Ada
