The picnic at Lake View Tuesday
was one of the largest in the history of
the Lake View club. The club is COM
posed of Topeka and Lawrence peo-
pie, with a few from Kansas City, Kan.
The Topeka crowd was by far the
largest. numbering 395. The plug car
ried down quite a crowd, and there
were nine coach loads on the special.
which was run down at $50; great
many more went down in the after
noon. Two or three hundred people
from Lawrence were in attendance.
Lake View is an ideal place for a
gathering of this kind; flags were fly
ing from the club house and cottages,
lending a patriotic air to the scene.
The verandas and lawn were furnished
with comfortable chairs, and the mem
bers did everything in their power to
make their guests have good time,
and it is needless to say that they sue
ceeded as they always do
a large platform was erected for
dancing and good music furnished; the
dancing was kept up from early in the
morning until the last train left for
home. In the afternoon there was a
cake walk; the prizes was won by Miss
May Sexton of Minneapolis, a student
at the university.
Fishing and boating were the especial
attractions of the day. There were
swings and hammocks for the children
while the Inevitable merry go-round
received its share of attention.
About half Of the Topeka people re-
turned on the plug" the others reach
ing home about 10 o'clock.
Few accidents occurred to mar the
pleasure of the day but the most ser
iOuS was that of Miss Lillian White
lock. A crowd of the young people
were playing crack the whip and Miss
Whitelock fell; she did not get up for
several minutes, and when she did,
nearly tainted from the pain in her
arm. DR.. Menninger was called and
pronounced it a fracture The injury
is very painful and it viii be at least
a month or six weeks before Miss
Whitelock will regain the use of her
arm.
