$ Rolla Reynolds enjoys a picnic about
4 as well as any young man in
r this country, especially when he has a
5 nice girl to enjoy it with him, but
r last Sunday the charms of picnicing
faded away very fast to him, when one
of his horses skipped out just as he
was ready to come home after spend
ing the day under the trees down by
Arne Luckason's. The horse would
go little ways, then stop and eat UNI
| til Rolla got close to it then away it
went and kept that game up for about
six miles when it was caught down by
| Watne's. Rolla hiked back to the
picnic ground with the horse arriving
| about IL p. m. only to find the rest of
the party-who had borrowed a horse
| at Luckason's- gone. That was the
last straw that broke the camel's back
and Rolla heayed a sigh that sounded
like the exhaust on threshing en-
CINE, and took up his march for town,
