NIGHT PICNIC.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sam Jones Enter
tain in Novel Manner.


One of the most novel and de-
lightful entertainments ever given
in this country was the night pic
mic at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Sam Jones on Cottonwood creek,
last Friday night. The event was
Ia honor OF the closing OF very
successful term of school in that
district. Invitations were sent out
for everybody to come and have q
good time. The grounds were pro-
fusely decorated with bunting and
Chinese lanterns and long tables
arranged on the ground where the
banquet was served. Music was
furnished and dancing on the lawn
was one Of the features. After the
banquet Prof. Lewis delivered q
highly appreciated address and it
was nearly morning before the
pleasure seekers started for their
homes.
A large number went from here
on big four horse wagons and ii
was estimated that over 200 we're
in attendance. The success of the
affair is largely due to Mr.. and
Mrs. Jones who proved themselves
royal entertainers.
