AUGUST 28. 1902. > i | Seen ai Smith's. I I A delightful picnic was given j ? at the residence ot Mr. W. P. Mc- J f dill last Tuesday. Quite a number of people were present and the day was pleasantly spent by all. The morning hours sped all too quickly for the young folk in in social chat, punctuated with merry laughter, while the older ones discussed more serious affairs, J i their ininds reverting to incidents of by-gone days. ^ At one o'clock we gathered about a table heavily laden with dainty edibles and every one seemed to be blessed with a hearty appetite to enjoy the elegant spread before them. The afternoon was devoted to games and other diversions, including dehghtlul music rendered on the organ by Mrs. W. B. Gregg, the beautiful and attractive daughter of Mr. and Mrs. VV. 1\ McGill. 'Ihe guitar in the hands of Mr. S B. McGil! lent its exquisite chords to the harmony of the organ. ('old lemonade invited '.hirst ?.n,l 11 iwitu'itpil it whpn :t came.

The day was some- j ^ what warm and sultry, but a good ; , ** | crowd was in attendance, and all j seem co enjoythe occasion. About I j. two o'clock the baskets were on- j ^ loaded, the table spread, which! seemed to groan under the weight i to of all kinds of eatables. The pic- j ^ nickers did not hesitate to relieve j ^ the table of its burden. All spent ; 14 the day pleasantly, some discuss- j ing politics, others playing games,! (J buggy riding, etc. Late in the a!- & ternoon a break in the crowd be-: pan, but the young folks stayed j i until after supper, which included a pindar boiling. All had a good time and went home happy. Mr. W. E. Snowden made a flying trip to his home folks last Sunday. We have had heavy rains re- j ceutly, and it is feared that .should I there not be a change in the weather the open cottr?n will be seriously damaged, and rot in the boils, there is in places at least j tialf of the cotton open, and if P1 that is lost a short crop will be the result. \Y\ S.
