Presbyterian Church Holds
Fine Congregational Picnic
(By Rev. H. C. Feast)
And all had a good time, a happy
afternoon, down by the bush and
;stream on Scott's farm. .The attend-
ance? Well over two hundred and
twenty --five. The field was dotted
with cars: forty -thee in all. Cer-
tainly all committees worked and
worked well and to these 'several com-
mittees is due the splendid success
of the church picnic. To begin with,
the short trip by auto was filled with
adventure. We had to drive through
a stream: quite like our forebearers,
they with ox -cart, we with modern
cars which balked a wee bit. And a
whip is little use to a stuibborn car.
The happy afternoon started off with
e sort of a game of softball between
the - married and unmarried men.
Three short innings tuckered out the
married fellows. The game was call-
ed in order to run off the field sports.
for the youngsters and some of the
oldsters. And what a list of con-
tests. And splendid prizes for first
and second in each event. The men's
walking race displayed all the native
cjualities of the Scot. Two clung to-
gethe•r. Together they would win
and divide the first prize. Precisely
they did that: after practice? no one
;:news. Called from the field to the
4 -able, the 'bas'ke'ts were loaded with`
sand'wicb-es, cake, 'fruit and every-
thing that goes to make up- a picnic.
Just an abundance of everything plus
hart and cold dr'ink's. The Scott's,
through their accustomed goodness
had -provided a cut and trimmed field
and a platform and two young men
book upon themselves to deliver
chairs, tables and organ from the
church, and this work done with such
an eagerness and promptitude that
Weft all in their debt, then, with Mr.
Scott, Sr., as leader of song and chor-
us and Mr. J. T. Scott in several hap-
py soles, with Mns, McMichael at the
organ, the happy afternoon came to
a close in a community sing. And
,sc, agood time was 'had by all, and
the word went round that in Sep-
tember we must have another get-to-
gether picnic.
The following are the results of
the sports events: Girls, 5 to 7, M.
