Many of our citizens who could not go to the neighboring towns to help celebrate our greatest of na tional holidays determined to have a little celebration of their own and the city park was chosen as the prop er place. So early in the day little groups of people, numbering from three to thirty, were found scattered around, under the shady trees and on the green grass, all seeming to enjoy the cool, beautiful day. The biggest of these little pnrties was the Baptist people and a few Invited friends, accompanied by well filled baskets and a big can of ice cream. Two of the gentlemen had resolved that a big Rogue river sal mon wns the proper thing to decor ate the center of the big table, so early in the morning, equipped with the necessary regalia, they made a bee line for the river. Not returning, the ladies thought beBt to leave out of the menu salmon a la mode and prepare the belated dinner. In the fore part of the afternoon the two Izaak WaltonB were seen approach ing from the horizon of the river. They were Immediately the center of attraction and as there were no vis ible signs of salmon, questions by the score were hurled at them of how and what and where was the catch? To all of which the gentle men maintained a modest and dis creet silence. However, if they did not bring bnck any "game" they did the proverbial fisherman's appetite. A dozen or more appointed them selves head waiters and soon enough food to supply a regiment was placed at the disposal, with all the knives and forks and spoons on the ground, Including a big soup spoon brought for the purpose of dishing out the Ice cream, and which one of the gentlemen accepted, much to the E1SHOPS Arc prepared to care for your HOT WEATHER NEEDS Porous-Knit, H.

While these two gentlemen returned to the river, hoping for better luck, the rest of the company celebrated the after noon in conversation, rowing on the river, teetering, swinging and play ing In a number of youthful games, in which the gray haired boys and girls joined in the fun with as much relish nnd enthusiasm as the younger players. While the ladles were pre paring a Bltnple luncheon as a close to the day's festivities, some sweet evening songs were sung by Mr. Lovett and some members of his congregation, which was s, fitting close, to a day so pleasantly spent.
