I'iciili; nl Oyster City,
On Tuesday last the members of
the Oyster City Sunday School gave
an entertainment and picnic, which
was thoroughly enjoyed by all
those who were present. The pro
gram consisted of vocal and instru
mental music, speaking etc., and
under the direction of Miss Cora
Gregson. Everything passed off
without anything happening to mar
the enjoyment of auyuue,
The day was simply perfect, just
enough breoie. blowing to keep
things cool, but in spite of the
gentle winds the young folks were
glad every once in a while to quit
their games and seek the shade of
the fruit trees in the orchard of Mr.
Geo, King.
After the speaking the dinner
was announced, and to see the will
ingness with which all pitched in
would do any ordinary mortal's
heart good; ''hard times indeed" if
any one has got it into their head
there are hard times on Yaquina
bay, he had better attend a picnic
at Oyster City and be at once un
deceived,, . . .
However all things must have an
end (yes even dinners) nd every
one was obliged to confess they had
had enough, although some of the
boy looked sorry when they saw
the remainder of the good things
being packed up, but sorrowful
looks quickly gave place to smiles
as the girls suggested games, and
then all were busy again until half
past four, at which hour the picuic
came to an end, all being united in
the opinion that they had spent one
of the most pleasant days of. (he
summer.
May prosperity and success at
tend the efforts of the members of
Oyster City Sunday School, and all
the citizens of that little burg who
behaved so royally to their visitors
is the w ish ol their friend
