July Quiet Month '
In.Sciciety Realm
- :
.This month finds but few club and
Church group meetings and only an
occasional alter noon party in local
society. While tho three months of
summer are usually quiet next monta
Is expected to prove especially so.
Visitors from out of town and
weekend trips for many living here
seem most popular at this time of
year. Wallowa lake drow Its usual
share of appreciative visitors over the
past weekend, the South Fork proved
a mccca for the camper and fisher
man and tho Imnaha was ravored by
others.
Those who have remained "at

swimming pools, the drowsinea3 of
lying beneath a shady tree and tho
fascination of tho golf courses.
