last Thursday. After the children had eaten their
luncheon under a large tree Of the mothers
who went with the party said, they were all SO
thankful for the happy day they had had that each
should pray for the kind Sunshine friends who
had given them so much pleasure, Then all the
children repeated a prayer they accustomed
TO in their church. After this. the school songs
sung. The branch president said. Never
have the children had such a good time" Il was
known at the office that OF the little ones
invited TO this picnic did not always have as nuch
20 eat as they needed, so the president was IN
structed TO provide a substantial luncheon gener-
Gus in quantity. and extra money was given ior
this purpose. The older children were allowed 10
ride on the big wheel and the younger ones en-
joyed the merry go-round; lemonade and popcorn
were looked upon the extras. The party dld
