Lawyers Have Great Time at
Annual Wakarusa Picnic.
Went Swimming Like Boys in
Waters Of Greek.

There was no judicial dignity at the
picnic of the Shawnee county lawyers
at the Frank Coverly grove, near Wa
karusa. The lawyers were for a day
all boys again and cut up accordingly.
John Dawson, the states attorney gen.
eral, was souzed-souzed under the
waters of the Wakarusa for failing be-
fore a court martial to prove any quail
ifications fitting him for a position on
the supreme bench. The souzing
came after long chase and strug-
gle. Later Ed McKeever was ducked
for venturing near the swimming hole
in clothes which the swimmers con-
sidered too neat.
The camp was conducted just like
a lot of Boy Scouts would have done
1t. Major A. M. Harvey was in COM
mand.
To Mrs. A. M. Harvey and Mrs. L.
L. Kiene, who, assisted by two colored
cooks, prepared the big dinner, much
praise was given for the excellence of
the "eats." That picnic probably av-
eraged the greatest per capita con-
sumption of food in one meal OF any
ever held in the state.
The camp was named in honor of
Chief Justice w. A. Johnston, of the
supreme court
Those at the picnic were:

In addition to this the city health ano

The best man on earth could not ef-
