left the city in the afternoon and pro-
ceeded to the picnic grounds, where
they had all kinds of fun. Swings,
hammocks, games and splendid sup
per with plenty of ice cream and lem
onade made the day most enjoyable
one. The Baptist Sunday School is
one of the best in the city. and is de-
servedly popular with the children.
