Fishermen Flock to Ladd Creek So - cial Affaire on the Lull. ' Ladd Canyon, Oregon, April 23. (Special) Although the April show ers are occasionally accompanied by cold breeze from the west, is seems to be fine growing weatherj neverthe less, as the newly-sown grain fields and gardens and the meadows and hill pastures appear to 'be springing up wonderfully. Farmers have taken nearly all their stock to the moun tains for the summer, some time ago and they are doing fine. It is pretty hard lately to obtain very much news for the paper, sup posedly on account of every one be ing too busy with spring work to go or entertain) very often. But then that is a pretty good indication of a prosperous neighborhood, - as every one knows who is familiar with Ladd Canyon. Many people were fishing in Ladd Creek Sunday and there was quite a good many automobiles going through to Hot Lake. Only those who have ever attended a party given by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mattson know how very delightfully they can entertain. They were host and hostess to about a dozen ''couples last Saturday evening whom they had invited in to participate in a dancing party, and a very, nice ,lap supper was served at twelve o'clock. . Those who made the evening merry were Mr. and Mrs. Alec Furgason, Mr. and Mrs. Dick Peebler, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Grandy, Mr. and Mrs. Law rence Drumsmith, Mr. and Mrs. Tom as Bates, Miss Dora Geiger, Law rence Spencer, Miss Irene Mulholland, Jack Walker, Miss Mabel Bates, Mr. Peterson of La Grande, Mrs. Wright of Tacoma, Wash., Edward Doolittle, Bert Ravenscroft of La Grande and Joe and Keith Bates.
