Meyer, who is in training at Platts- burg spent the weekend with his pa rents MT. and Mrs. Julius c. Meyer.
 Lifting the shade at five o'clock Monday morning it was a pleasant surprise to find standing upon the porch table just without an exquisite ly arranged vase of flowers in the national cOlOrs; the red being poppies from Flanders Field" Of course it was the gift of MT. Leon," who later put out our flag and the Community flag on the crown of the Hill as well, and who at sunset took them in. The training of the service boys tells in every day life, wherever you find them.
 The farmers who celebrated by get ting in hay, as one observed, Were glad of the chance" A few attended the sports at The Get-To- -Gether club picnic at the Pine Grove, and enjoyed it. It was real fitting weather, with out showers, and altogether memOr able day, made more so by the opening of the Gift Shop and tea room that | was a very suspicious occasion attend ed by the Hill people who enjoyed | their call of Saturday and notable friends from South Wilmington and | motorists from a distance. All ex- pressed themselves as much pleased at the beauty and variety of the at ' fractions.
