The first train left the city at 1920
Ithis morning carrying fair sized
3crowd. The 1920 train had
Ia larger crowd and all the trains there
|after were loaded to the guards and the
5resort presented another scene Of
{crowded humanity such as Is seldom
witnessed there. The early part of the
kday being excessively warm II was a
ftrylng ordeal for some OF the older
members Of the party to get to the
.trains, hut the lake breeze was a most
|eracious boon and none suffered from
|,he heat there, except the younger por-
3iOn Of the crowd, who could not re-
{slst the waltzes and two-steps.
Late this afternoon an lmpromptu but
Entertaining program was carried out
In the dancing pavilion, consisting of
IAN eloquent address by President Snow;
|solos by Horace $. Ensign, George d.
|Pyper and others.

lApostles, the First Council Of Seven

2ttake and their wives. all OF whom
t1nade sixty guests. The repast was
Nery appetizlnk and the free and easy
|spift that prevailed al the table invest.
'ed the occasion with a keen enjoyment.
There was one venerable form that
was missed In the throng. II was
Aunt llna D. Young, the most beloved
woman In al Utah. She Is In Canada
Visiting with her daughter and was
unable 20 he present In

that she was with them In spirit and
sympathy The other members OF the
general board who were present as
quests Of the committee were. Mrs.
|Jane $. Richards, Mrs. Bathsheba w.
