w. II. {. Annual Picnic.

The annual picnic OF Capt. George
Stow W. II. G. of this place was held as
usual, at the home of Mr.. and Mrs H.W.
Ledebur, German Hill, on Thursday last,
and was perhaps the most enjoyable one
of the long series of similar gatherings by
this excellent organization, which is say
ing great deal, for the ladies scored
many a noted success in that line in the
past. A laIrer day could not have been
wished for, being neither too hot nor too
and Mrs. Ledehur is an ideal one for such
an occasion, located as it is on a beautiful
stretch of farm, with a thrifty orchard
fronting the spacious house, under whose
inviting shade are spread the long tables,
being thus excluded from the sun at all
hours of the day, and with agentle breeze
always astr there is no reason why the
most fidgety or fussy may not take COM
fort. By the time the viands were dis
played upon the snowy table cloths up
ward OF hundred merry souls had gath
cred TO participate in the festivities, and
when the dinner bell rang the tables
"were fairly groanng" under the load Of
deicacies as well as substantials.
When the great feast was over the ta-
bles were turned, as it were, and it was
the erstwhile hungry mortals that
'groaned" instead of the tables, for it
was hard to pull oneself away from that
royal layout. Those who have heretofore
had the good fortune to be present on
these occasions declare that each succeed
ing picnic is an Improvement on its pre-
decessors, and this one was no exception
to the rule. Old and young alike enjoy
them to the fullest extent. In fact there
are never any old folks present. Some of
those who attend are past the three score
and-ten allotment, to be sure, but y0u
could scarcely distinguish them from tue
kids on one of these occasions.
As all evidence of this youthful exu-
berance, and to prove they were 'Just as
young as they use to be-" the veterans
inaugurated a jumping match, and to see
hiNah PSi i'i III hhN h'p IN lP ohh aNb
was enough to put he younger element
to blush, The pleasant afternoon was
whiled away in social chat, crcqnet and
other games and emusements, and when
tine sun began to hug the western horizon
the guests reluctantly took leave of their
genial host and hostess, and prepared for
the pleasant homeward drive. Besides
those from Tionesta and immediate vi
cinity there were number present from
Hickory, Endeavor, Kellettyille, and Ne
braska, and the guests from a distance
were Mrs. C. NJ. Whiteman, OF Butler,
Mrs. c. S. Kirchartz, of Reynoldsville,
Miss May Sloan, of McKeesport, Miss
Georgia Banner, of Clarion, and Miss
Emma Theman, of Pittsburg.
The picnic of 1901 was decided sue
cess in every particular, so voted unani-
mously, and with those present it seems
like a long time to wait for the next one.
