Two Hundred Former Residents of
Dixieland Gather in Lithia Park

other former Dixieite whether he had
met him before or not.
DR.. T. B. Ford, chaplain of the
State Editorial Association and dis
trict superintendent of the Salem dis
trict of the M. E. church, made the
response, likening the southern Ore
gon hospitality to the famous Dixie
brand.
B. r. Greer was called upon for a
talk and mingled sense and nonsense
in short address.
George H. Hines, secretary Of the
State Historical Association and a
pioneer of Oregon who is down here
for a few days enjoying an outing
and gathering material for the histor-
ical association, spoke in an enter
tanning manner.
The program was followed by "a
picnic dinner with delicacies of the
south much in evidence.
After the program "reminiscences
were INDUCED in and old southern
melodies sung, finishing with stir
ring rendition of Dixie" after which
the gathering adjourned to the neigh
borhood of the bandstand in the park,
where the Ashland band entertained
with concert in which old southern
melodies played a prominent part.
The gathering was one of the larg-
est and most enjoyable yet held in
Lithia park, and the Dixie Association
looks forward to another like affair
next summer.
