Never in the history of Bounty
Land has the sun shone more bright
ly at night than it did last Friday
night, when quite number Of the
young people of the community met
at the school house and enjoyed a
box supper. Even Lady Moon re-
vealed her smiling face-no, they
say 1t is a mans face we behold
when we look at the moon. But be
that as 1t may, the light of Lady
Moons fair countenance is not OBJ
scured by the presence OF that face,
and we feel sure that the rays OF
our little society would have been
more bright and far-reaching by
the presence of few more mascu-
line faces Friday night, although the
young men who were there reflected
credit to themselves, some buying a
number Of boxes. A neat little sum
was realized, which will be used in
Sunshine work. After the boxes
had been emptiod of their delicacies,
which were enjoyed to the utmost,
lively games were played until 1890
O'Clock, when all departed for their
respective homes.
Misses Carrie Smith, Julia and
Myrt Davis visited at the home of
