ber of guests enjoyed picnic Mon
day evening that will be long re-
membered. The place selected for

places high up In the face Of the
huge rocks surrounding the natural
amphitheatre. excavations had been
made for the building Of small bon
fires and these together with sus-
pended japanese lanterns and the
main fire in the large natural fire
place furnished at once the needed
illumination and a lighting effect Of
rare beauty.
The evening repast consisted of
a beefsteak fry. with potatoes.
cauliflower. pickles. jelly. various
salads and coffee, followed by Ice
cream and cake.
The program Of stories, talks.
clog dances and many songs sung to
the accompaniment Of an organ

for the occasion. WAS entered into
with the usual Rotary xest and
completed q social event that goes
into first place among the success

unique and pleasing idea. George
