The Pioneers Meet-
LEXINGTON will be the mecca
for all Morrow county pioneers
who can possibly get there, Satur
day, when the annual pioneers' re
union will be staged.
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.
