! The 18th Annual Campfire of Fl. S.
Swift Post held Tuesday evening, Feb.
5th, was a grand success at the opening
of the Goth century. The weather and
roads were perfect and by the light of
beautiful moon many hundreds of peo-
pie enjoyed sleigh rides and bountiful
bean supper, after which the program
was successfully carried out. Mrs.
Grinnell, Department President of the
w. r. c., very forcibly set forth the
necessity of the organization, showing
that it was continuance of the work
done by the loyal women during the
days of the civil war in hospital and on
the field Rev. L. l.. Thayer enlarged
upon the cost of our country at expense
of loyal lives. The several others who
assisted in singing and recitations were
highly appreciated Comrade James E.
Croft of GAINESVILLE, briefly related the
repulse of the Confederate forces at
Altoona Pass.
Over in the little village of Cam
bridge they believe in spinning out good
things and making them cover as much
territory as possible. The Happy New
Year" greeting lasts about as long in
| Cambridge as does the good old fash
Toned German wedding in the Father
land, from four to six weeks Ever
since the dawning of January first
nineteen hundred and one the Cam
bridgeits have been going about wishing
one another "a Happy New Year." and
they not only exchange this greeting
when they meet upon the street, but
they publish it for weeks in their village
paper. In the advertising space of one
of the leading merchants that time
| honored greeting still attracts the read
er's attention. II Cambridge people are
not happy, it is not because they neglect
wishing one another happiness. IF all
| other holidays are observed with the
same unrestricted way as New Years
| Day, then it must be one continued
round of pleasure to dwell in the little
village of Cambridge.
