OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, JUNE 15, 1906. NEWS OF THE COUNTY f MAPLE LANE. The banket social at Mapla Lane was a marked success, both socially and financially. There were between 80 and 100 persons piesent, and the ladies took in between $30 and $40. Basnets sold from ofio to $1 30, and ruoro could have been sold had they been in evideuce. Eight gallons of ice cream and a goodly number of cakes supplemented the baskets. After the old folks left, "they do say" the young people tripped the "light fan tastic" for a short time before going home. Alotgethet it was a most joy ous and orderly crowd. The amateur theatrical troupe of Maple Lane Grange give a free per formance, covering ten or twelve numbers, which was enjoyed by all, and was a great credit to the ladies who took part in it, and in behalf of the committee, I take this oppor tunity of thanking the people of Bea vflr (freke and MhdIo Lane for their liberal patronage ; also for their ap preciation of the prorgam. Maple Lane Grange No 209 mot in regular sossion June 2, with an atten dance of 32, maki' g an average at tendance of 37 1-3 for tho quarter just ended, as against 36$; for the first quarter, or 8? for the iirst halt of the year.

' Maple Lnne has lost three members during the year, and has gained four new members and there are four ap plications pending so you see we are still alive.
