If tho older people lack in pa triotism here in Spray the child ren have not forgotten the day on which this Republic was born Under the juniper trees that form a beautiful arbor in R. L. Greene's yard, the children of D E Baxter and Mr3 Olive John son gave an ice cream social in memory of tho one hundred for tieth anniversary of our national Independence. The following invited guests were present to help them enjoy the occasion. Mr and Mrs R L Greene, Mr and Mrs W H Osborn, Mr and Mrs D E Baxter, Mrs Olive Johnson, Prof R L Greene and R D Price. Toast making was the order after the repast, and some of them seemed to us quite vision ary, especially the one prophetic of the condition of affairs fifteen years from to day, by Mr O'iborn His views were quite pessimistic and not very encouraging. We hope that the people of Spray will see far greater improve ments than was prophesied on the above occasion. The gath ering was greatly enjoy by all especially the ice cream and cake which was the main 'feature After the fragments had tteen cleared away a part of the guests went to watch the operation of a new pumping plant lately in stalled by Prof Greene, but bj special request the others re mained under the junipers.
