NATIVES OF IOWA
GATHER AT PICNIC
Sons and Daughters of
Hawkeye State Hold
Annual Reunion

more tnan TOUR nunQreQ people at
tended the Iowa picnic at the John
Woods farm above Shelley Sunday.
The day was perfect, the grounds
were in fine condition and a row of
tables were prepared by Mr.. and
Mrs. Woods, besides a great guam
tity of coffee and fried chicken pre-
pared and added to the great spread
made by the guests. The tables
were loaded and dinner was served
cafeteria style, there being the pro-
verbal five loaves and four fishes
remaining after the multitudes were
fed.
Short addresses were made by
Senator M. B. Yeaman of the Times
Register of Idaho Falls, C. s. Bee
bee of Blackfoot, Charlie DeCanp,
lC, G.. Kellar and j. H. Mulberry of
Idaho Falls, and there was singing
and musical program. Provision
was made for pitching horse shoes,
and many of the men took turn
at 1t.
Secretary Trego suggested that
they adopt definite policy as to
whether future picnics should be
held at farm homes or in public
parks, and they resolved to hold
them at farm homes. A reception
committee was appointed to register
the visitors as they arrive next year
and pin large cards on them giving
their names and the Iowa town they
came from. The same committee
will attend to the roll call and those
who do not respond will be account
ed for by friends or acquaintance
who happen to know what has be-
come of them. A committee on ar
rangements will select the time and
place for the picnic, the time to be
about the last Sunday of August or
first Sunday of September, the idea
being to have it come ahead of the
threshing period A program COM
mittee will provide the entertain
ment and speakers, and the 1925
picnic will probably be held at some
place not far from Shelley on the
south, and not far from the high
way.
John Woods of Idaho Falls, R. F.
D. No. 6 is chairman and Byrd Ire
go of Blackfoot, secretary for the
coming year The committees were
to be named by the chairman after
he had time to make careful selec-
ton.
An effort was made to register
those present and roll call will be
made next year. Not all the adults
registered, and none of the young
Or ones. The registration shows the
.own they came from in Iowa and
heir present address. To shorten
he work, the initials, 81. F." are
lsed for Idaho Falls, Idaho, "Sh"
Tor Shelley and "Bft" for Black
DOT.
