A combined wood cutting bee and
picnic formed an all day affair We'd
lor on the Wallace road. 1t is an an
nual event when neighbors and friends
gather for helpful and jolly time to-
gether, the men to fell the trees saw
and split them, ready for use and the
women to prepare the dinner. Edward
Loose was on hand with his gasoline
saw and others were armed with cross
cuts and axes or were ready with team
and wagon for hauling. The ladies put
in an appearance with heavily laden
baskets of good things for the inner
man. Fancy work of several kinds was
also much in evidence.
A sumptuOus hot dinner was served
at twelve O'Clock in a beautiful fir
grove not far from the river and close
to the working men. The long table
covered with snowy linen, cleaning
with silver and loaded with the best
of the season s dishes proved very at
tractive to them after their morning s
arduous labor. Work was taken up
again after dinner and continued until
late in the afternoon when supper was
served in cafeteria style.

ready for the shed at the close of the
day and the general impression was a
