Originated several years ago, largely at the instigation of Mrs. Sarah Booher, one of the oldest pioneers of the county and a resi dent of Lexington, this occasion has come to hold a place of deep af fection in the hearts of pioneers as well as of the hearts of everyone It has given a largess of good fel lowship without ostentation or show, affording occasion for renewing old acquaintanceships and friendships largely through one of the oldest and best mediums known to man that of feeding the inner man. It is not justice to say that the Lexington occasion has its main at traction in the always bounteously set dinner table, o'er which is of fered in pot-luck fashion the best in culinary achievement of many of the county's best cooks, though there is no denying that this feature in years past has been much talked about. However well satiated appe tites make for contentment and leave pleasing recollections, and in doing this part exceedingly well the Lexington reunion has established a reputation. There is always a pleasing pro gram of entertainment in the af ternoon, and traipsing of old-fashioned fandangos and new-fangled dances in the evening to round out a day exceptionally well suited to promote social intercourse. All too many of those early day empire builders of this county have reaped their last reward. Their ranks are becoming thinned each year. Those remaining are entitled to the evidence of esteem held by those . who have shared the benefits of their accomplishments. All who can should join in the day set aside for the pion eers at Lexington Saturday.
