Notwithstanding tho? continued
and sovoro inclemency of tho weal
hor for tin- lind few days, tho
Tournament und Hot Supper ap
pointed ul this place came oiT on
Friday thoiiOth, al thc time appoin
ted.
F.arly friday morning tho
Knights and spectators commenc
ed coming in, and hy noon a good
ly number woro assembled. There
wore several from Spurtunhurg,
and a few from ('ros-; Keys in Un
ion County. So much rain liad fal
lon in tho lasl few days that it was
impossible to got Cae track in good
condition, yet nothing daunted tho
young men were determined to
have the ride. There was about ton
Knights who rode in tho contest,
Tho contest commenced about 2
o'clock and WUSCOUl inned for about
two hours, and resulted in Mr.lohn
Casey, tho Knights of Cross An
chor winning tho lirst prize, and
crowning Miss June M un joy as
Queen ol' llcnuty. Mr ICIijuh il.
Kay, tin* Knight ol'Cross Keys, won
tho second pri/.e, and crowned Miss
('ora Patterson Isl, maid of Honor.
Tho third pri/.e was won by Mr A.
C. Cox the Knight of true blue and
Miss .Janey Mills second M a'ul of

Although tho track was in such

was a success beyond our ox pinda-.
tums. Tho tables fairly groaned
with good things t<> eat. Although ?
tho assembly was largo wo could
bave led as many mort; as partook
of lt. Ham, Turkey, ( 'bb kens, Cake, ?
Custards und Flos were (lu rc in
profusion, and during Ibo whole
evening- not a single incident oc
curred to mar Ibo enjoyment, and
went merry asa marriage hell. And
tho youirg folkes seemed to enjoy
themselves so much wo nlmosl
wished we "were boys again."' Wo
had a good sociable time, and can
not help thinking (hut If such occa
sion wore to come oftener in every
community ii would draw us closer
together, and make the bonds of
fraternal love stronger all over Cle
land. lt is good lo dwell together
in peace and tinily, and the moro
mich social reunion; are fostered
in a neighborhood, Hie grouter and
more lusting aro tho pleasures of
those who participate in Hmm. lt
brings neighbors closer together,

I cultivates a >pirii of friendship and

1 ti single individual who contributed
to Hie adair, but what felt thal they
were aiding; and abetting a good
cause, in trying lodo what they.
COllld to linisli up our School I louse i
as well as cementing closer togo th- '
er the bonds of friendship and love
in our community.
Aller the supper was over Ibo
young folks had a nice social party.
Timi o who wanted to "trip I lie
light fanth'tic too" did so, and those
who did liol Wish to participate in
the dance joined In social converse, ;
and all scene d to lay aside tittil
ear.- lot' a SCtlSOII and give them
selves o respite for enjoyment, lt
Wits a notable fud that every one
seemed bi exert themselves to
make the occasion as enjoyable as
possible.
