Mrs. Alfred Young, on behalf of the
guests, presented Mrs. Easterly with
an electric Iron as a memento of the
occasion. The presentation poem,
entitled "The Nineteenth of June,"
read by Mrs. Young, is given below :
Way off down in a southern clime,
So it has been recorded in the book
of time,
A tall old bachelor wandered one day
And found a little widow alone in her
way.
She was short and pretty and very
sweet,
He was tall and lank but very slick.
Her sweet smiles she then cast at
him.
And he did not know whether he was
fat or slim.
But one time his heart got too full
for the test.
And he popped the question, and this
is our best.
Right there siie was taken so un
aware, That she promised his love and his
sorrows to share,
And then the next question, what day
it should be,
To make them a happy one, not two
or three;
But this was a small question after
landing the fish.
And poor old Henry was to get his
dear wish.
So she said, "I think the 19th of
June will lie
i ne day for us to go to Salt Lake City
and see
How the Mormons their marriage
vows tie.
So that we can't break them bv and
by."
Well, they were married on that
bright June day.
And then way up north their home
they did lay,
Until Anna got tired of the cold a
little bit.
They wandered south and in old Ash
land lit.
And we are all so happy that this
day
Has been offered to us to come up
here and pay
You both our congratulations, and
may many years
Of blessed union be yours, without
tears.
After our invitations, we wanted
something to take,
Just as a token of our love for your
own dear sake. -
We pondered it over and we pondrtsed
it well,
But nothing was right and no one
could tell,
Until Strickfadden, with his wise old
knot,
Said, "Get her an iron that will keep
red hot,"
And so that we have done, and we
give it to you
With our good wishes and friendships
true,
And when things go wrong and your
temper is at stake,
Just grab up this coil and the iron
from the shelf you can take,
And attach them together, and the
current from above,
Always remembering every one of us
with love.
And now, dear Anna, don't get dis
couraged filling Henry with pie,
He'll get over that appetite in the
sweet by and by.
Keep right on and pull his leg,
But for another invitation we sin
cerely beg.
Those attending the celebration
were Messrs. and Mesdames Hintze,
Nisbet, Applegate, J. F. Rocho, James
Sayles and Watkins; Messrs. F.
Strickfadden. Cliff Payne and Glen
Young; Mesdames Gummaer, Alfred
Young and Samuel Williams; Miss
Parker.

CELEBRATEJOWA DAY
150 MciiiIm-i-s Gather in . A. U. Hall
for Second Annual Reunion
Ijst Friday.
In spite of lowering skies, the sec
ond annual picnic and reunion of the
Iowa Society was a signal success
last Friday, about 150 individual
members and their friends partici
pating In the feast and exercises of a
varied nature, embracing musical se
lections and short talks on vital is
sues, historic, reminiscent and other
wise. Fortunately the society met in
Grand Army hall, those headquarters
affording ample room. Inasmuch as
the gathering was driven indoors on
account of inclement weather, It was
well that the aforesaid hall had been
reserved in due season for the re
union event.
The dinner was all that could be
desired, and not only the substantial
were in evidence, but many delicacies
in addition. Iowans are noted for
being "corn fed," but they appreciate
the side dishes also, consequently it
might not be amiss to state that
three gallons of sweet cream, three
crates of strawberries, and seven gal
lons of ice cream were consumed "on
the side," in connection with the
main items on the banquet board.
After this fine repast there were
several vocal selections, Mrs. C. L.
Cunningham acting as accompanist.
The initial one was the "Iowa Song,"
by the entire audience; a solo by
Miss Esther Silsby; a quartet by Mr.
and Mrs. J. H. McGee, Mrs. Burns
and Mr. Schwimley, and a solo by
Mrs. C. B. Wolf, all of the singers
being heartily encored. O. H. Barn
hill, J. W. Hicks and C. B. Wolf gave
brief addresses pertinent to the day
and its observance, brimming over
with humor and expressions of good
fellowship, while Rev. John McAllis
ter, the main speaker of the after
noon, supplemented these talks with
a most fitting climax to the order of
exercises, closing with a due measure
of praise for our present surround
ings in Oregon, viewed from the
standpoint of state, county and mu
nicipal environment.
Twenty-one additional names were
added to the list of 112 enrolled last
year, viz.: Mrs. E. J. Wollencroft,
Dr. J. P. Johnson, -Mr. and Mrs. C.
B. Wolf, J. A. Kohagen, R. L. Mof
fitt. J. M. Welch, J. W. Hicks. Mrs.
F. B. Welch, Mrs. M. McNeill, George
and Casey Van Natta, J. W. Milner,
J. M. Brooks, Mrs. John Patty, Miss
Alice Finley, J. Howard, W. R. Kin
caid, Mrs. H. L. White, Mrs. L. Min
gus and Mrs. S. J. Torrence.
The choice of officers resulted in
the re-election of the old ones, they
being Rev. W. A. Schwimley, presi
dent; C. B. Lamkin, vice-president;
E. V. Carter, treasurer; W. H. Day,
secretary; and on motion the officers
were to constitute an executive com
mittee. Preliminary to adjournment, the
society appointed a committee to de
vise ways and means to participate in
the Fourth of July celebration. Such
committee was as follows: O. H.
Barnhill, chairman; J. V. Milner, C.
B. Wolf, and Mesdames W. L. Moore,
C. B. Lamkin and W. H. Day. This
committee meets at the secretary's
office, Commercial Ciub rooms, Mon
day evening, June 24, to adopt a
float or other representative feature
which shall in the best measure rep
resent Iowa in the grand parade in
Ashland, July 4.
A financial statement revealed the
fact that there was a balance in the
treasury of $26 carried over from
last year; receipts this year, 7 4 mem
bers at 25 cents "each, $ 18.50; total,
$44.50; expenditures incident to re
cent reunion, $29.90; balance,
$14.60.
The following poem by O. H. Barn
hill met with hearty applause, re
plete, as it is, with suggestions of the
good and bad things left behind in
Iowa:
Back to Iowa.
Take me back to old Iowa,
Where there's clover fields and
corn,
Maple trees and oak and hickory
Where I lived when I was born;
Where there ain't 'no irrigating,
'Ceptlng from the clouds above,
And they work the roads all sum
mer Land of Hawkeyes that I love.
Take me where there's hogs a-plenty,
Fattening steers and colts and
calves;
Where they ship out things by train
loads. Where they don't do things by
halves;
Where the noble Mississippi
Flows along past Keokuk,
And the steamboats on Big Muddy
Miss the channel and get stuck.
Let me hear again the wagons
Rattling o'er the frosty ground,
Hurrying to the waiting corn fields,
Where the ears make cheerful
sound
As they hit upon the bat-boards.
Where by strong, young arms
they're throwed
Who can beat a husky Hawkeye
Piling up a golden load?
Take ine where there's good, hot
weather,
Where the mercury can climb
Right up through the torried nine
ties, In the good, old summer time.
Where the blizzards from Nebraska
Come a-whistling o'er the hills,
Blowing like a thousand furies,
As the air with snow it fills.
Take me where the Nlshua Botna
Flows through fields of golden
grain.
Past the town of Shenandoah,
Loveliest city of the plain;
Where the Western Normal College
Lifts its spire to Heaven's blue,
Looking o'er the blue-grass praries
Don't you want to go there, too?
