CLUB FOURTH
Happy Time Enjoyed By Members

Country Club members celebrated
the Glorious Fourth in their usual

the club house was quiet, but dinner
was quite lively with one Of the larg-

spirits! Following the dinner, and
after the arrangement of details for
their fireworks, they began touching
off the display, and they were beauti-
full. Some novel things in the line
of the pretty sparklers were shown,
and some of their sky rockets were
most beautiful. Balloons in all sorts
of fancy and fantastic shapes were
sent up and amused the Riddles as

gan a little later in the evening and
the door was filed with couples. 1t

BEES SWARM IN AUTO
An Unple SAINT Experience of Party
s,'.... on the Highway.

Constable Arthur S. Shaw of the
Laffollette justice court had some
what unpleasant. net to say unusual
experience, last Sunday while enroute
to What Cheer. Art was at the
wheel negotiating a stretch of good
going and was hitting it up at 'pret-
ty fair hickory" Just about this
time a huge swarm of bees took a no.
ton to cross the highway and auto
and honey makers collided The
bees we're in the car by the hundred.
They were caught on the wind shield,
on the sides and the cushions. They
crawled over everything and every
body. MI Shaw asserts he never
before had seen so many bees at one
and the same time, in fact he didn't
know there wore that many bees.
Keep OH going lively" shouted one
Of the passengers from the rear seat
land they will soon clear" After
the first moment of scare and as no
one appeared 70 be suffering from the
presence of the insects, Mr.. Shaw fed
the machine little more juice and
within few hundred yards every bee
was out of the car and not a single
sting had been experienced by any OF
, the party. ..#
