Night
PLEASANT AFFAIR

The Canton Outing club, which has
become famous, not only for its en-
tertainment of guests at their regular
outings In Oxford, Mich, but for their
social sessions during the winter, gave
their Thanksgiving banquet Tuesday
night. This banquet was given in
honor of Peter Obringer, who has Wis
tied the club on two or three occa-
sions while they we're in camp and
highly appreciated The banquet was
served in the dining room at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Bernard, con-
nected with the organizations meet
ing place and consisted of fish fry
and many other good things to eat.
The affair was presided over by Presi-
dent Herman Raedel and a few hours
of enjoyment was spent at the table.
At one end of the table sat President
Raedel, with the guest OF honor Mr..
treme end was seated Mayor Turnbull
and Joseph Reigler, who enjoys the
distinction of being the oldest man
that ever visited the jolly campers.
The others surrounding the table were

Harding, Grief of Police H. W. Smith,
Fred S. Talbot, William Thorn, Paul

dulged in personal "reminiscences and
many tales about the different campers
were told, much to the enjoyment of
the banqueters. Several of those who
visited the camp during the past few
seasons were unable to be present, ow-
ing to the fact that they had previous
engagements or were out of the city
at the time. This organization, which
has camped at Oxford, Mich, for sew
eral seasons, is now making prepara-
tions for the coming outing. They
have decided upon purchasing several
new tents and replenishing other parts
of their paraphernalia, making it the
most complete camping outfit in the
city. The membership of this organ

make preparations for visitors from
the city and those who visit them
