A most enjoyable informal picnic
was given at DiXon's Chapel Tuesday
afternoon by the ladies of the Main
street Christian church honoring
Mrs. John Cochran, who is the guest
of her sister, Mrs. j, T. Spencer. The
usual diversions were engaged in
and were appreciated more than
usual as some time has passed since
these friends had met at such an oc-
casion. WaXahachie is to be congrat-
ulated on having such a lovely, nat
ural park and while it belongs not
to Waxahachie, the owner, MIR. Dixon,
kindly allows the people to enjoy 1t.
The luncheon spread on this particu-
lar afternoon was ( most delightful
one, las if any lunch were not good
on an outing, especially one prepared
by those particular LADIES', Mrs.
Cochran will leave for her home at
Meridian on Monday.
