DUCK GROVE.

The fifteenth Of August was ushered
in with heavy downpour of rain and
things looked very dubious for the big
picnic but it stopped about ten o'clock
and after dinner people commenced
to come to town and by evening the
usual crowd was present. Two fine
suppers were served at six o'clock and
midnight, and the way the chicken dis.
appeared wasn't slow. One lady said
she counted 80 cut up for the six
o'clock supper and then. she quit
counting. The ladies of the congre-
cation who so cheerfully slaughtered
the feathered pets certainly deserve
the thanks of the whole community
The dance also was success and
everybody seemed to have a good time.
The money taken in amounted to
about S167. There are still some bills
to be paid, but not many. The largest
expense was the music which was
$22, with some minor expenses, which
will leave a nice sum to the credit
Of the church. Those who gave their
time and help at the supper deserve
special praise as that Is hard work
and should be shared by all to make
the burden lighter.
