Picnic Ju|y 20

3 . Dear Libby Friend, in and aroun
s Portland:
! Last year some ,eighty-six of u
: former Libby residents gathered to
: gether at Washington Park for
picnic, and in spite of the shove
at the end of il, the gathering wa
i adjudged most decidedly worth
: while. So again, at Washington
I, Park, Sunday, July 20, at 1;Ol
a p. m, you're supposed TO be there
That means well be ready to leai
/ at J p. m. but come as early as yot
|, can. Look over the Rose Garder
. and Zoo, after the picnic if you
/ like, but we want everyone to-
gether at one time, around / o. m
,, To make sure that every former
Libbyite in this section knows OF
the picnic you be sure to drop a
penny postcard to either Mr.. Wood
or myself, or use my telephone num-
Der, MU 2l04, informing US of any,
one else 10 whom a copy of this
announcement should be sent. Your
corrections will be appreciated. (Mr.
Wood still keeps his little black
book of Portland Libbyites.) Some
so announcements are being mailed
compared to 80 last year so our
crowd could well be proportionately
larger. An advertisement is also
being placed in the Western News.
Last year one of our good ladies
from Libby received a copy of the
advertisement while visiting in Cali
fornia, in time for her to stop over,
on her return, just to attend orr
picnic.
One provision this year requested
by many of last years visitors, IS
that all are asked to deposit their
lunch on the central table which
will be under the supervision of a
competent former Ladies' Alder,
who will plan TO dispense the food
cafeteria style, thereby mixing the
food as we'll as the crowd. Bring
only your picnic lunch, cup and
silver. The paper plates, coffee. /
cream, sugar and ice cream will /
be provided for all at only a nomi- +
nal donation of Csc from each faith +
er present. Some have asked if
they might bring a Special Friend
a sweetheart, hubby" or wife, as
the case may be. even if they have
never lived in Libby, to which we
say, by all means, to make sure Won
arc there, bring any close friend Or
relative you feel would enjoy our
