DIAL SNEWS * Dials, Sept. 6.--Despite the depres ion gf the times, the 'people of this community are of a iprogressive na ture and are qrdent ibelievers of the "get-together" movemenit, and that "a little nonsense now and then is relish ed by the wisest men," and one of the nost enjoyable of these inovements was that of 'Saturday afternoon, Sop tember '3rd, when the entire commun 4ty "turned out" and enjoyed an af ternoon picnic at Pinowood Lake. "Pinewood Lake", with its beauti ful surroundings, is .well adapted to outings of this kind, and has been the scene of a number of such gala affairs this summer, none more enjoyable, however, than the one of Saturday af ternoon. Mlr. B. H1. Gray was the pro moter of the affair, and much of the success and pleasure of the occasion swas due to his efforts and that of the Curry families. The guests -began to arrive quite early and 'by mid-afternoon all had assembled. The children and younger People 'went in swimming, while their elders formed congenial groups along the grassy shore, rimmed by stately plines, and induiged in a regular talk feast. At 5 o'clock supper was served which consisted of barbecue meats, fish, loaf, hot coffee of the best (as Mrs. Ropp had charge of that delpart ment of the drinks) and ice water. All were invited to partake, prayer being first offered by Mr. J. W. Wells. All good things, however, have an ending, and when the. sun had set, till of all the brilliant spectacle, naught remained but the crimson streaks across the azure of the sky proclaimed the hour of departure the guests, bade each other good-bye and wended their homeward nway. Those present were Mr. .B. 1-1.
