races for both sexes, three-legged
dashes, potato races and sack races
with less strenuous forms of amuse-
ment for the younger element.
At the noon hour sandwiches, soda
water and other refreshments will be
spread under the shady trees and after
quiet hour the regular details of a
Sunday school picnic will be carried
through until it is time to go home,
when tired but happy crowd of
youngsters will once more mount the
cars for home singing their school
hymns as they disperse

their relatives and friends of the Por-
tuguese church, back of Emma square,

silhouetted the exhibit palaces against
the night, periodically the iliumina-

drove the Cascades gradually died
down. The light faded steadily.
