A School Reunion.

The ladies who attended Lyndon
Academy in the years from 1870 to 1875
have planned delightful reunion to take
place today as a picnic, and the place
chosen, Mr.. Ides woods, is one held dear
in the memory of those who lived here
as children. for there they often gath
cred in early spring to enjoy a Vermont
"sugaring off" or in the sumner months
for picnic or ramble after wild flow
ers. The invitations include also the resi-
dents of the village in the years referred
to and the plan seems to meet with
warm appreciation as many answers
from distant parties indicate. Mrs. c.
D. Wicomb and Mrs. G. P. Ide (Fannie
and Emma Morgan) have been active in
forwarding the arrangements and an oc-
casion of unusual interest is anticipated.
A list of those present from a distance
will be given next week with full ac-
count OF the proceedings. On Tuesday,
Mrs. Geo. P. Ide entertained at dinner
such of her former schoolmates as have
already arrived.
