The cream sta tion at Simeon is very convenient for the dairy men , and is paying a good sum each week for cream. To say that there was no mo notony around Simeon this past week would be putting it mildly. Three picnics with basket dinners should please the most exacting. The fishing party in honor of Rev. Parsons , from a fishing stand point was not very successful as the fish were too modest to bite. However two fine bass did Eev. Par sons the honor to allow themselves to be caught. Seeing this a num ber of sun fish did likewise. Children's .day was observed on Thursday. Eev. parsons gave a splendid sermon in the forenoon. A basket dinner was then served , and such a dinner. There was abun dant proof that isviis very satis factory to those partaking. The program in the afternoon was well rendered. Mrs. Hudson told a beau tiful story to the little folks. The quartette furnished the music aided by the school. The school is very grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Daniels for the use of their giove for the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Stilwell desire to express their deep and lasting gra titude to all who helped in the search for their little girl when she was lost ; also to all those who showed so much interest in the hunt by coming for miles to the celebration of the event. They feel that words cannot express their thanks to these friends , nor pay the obligations which they feel under toward those who ren dered such willing and efficient service. They regret exceedingly that anything occured on the day of the celebration to mar in any way the feelings of rejoicing and friendship with which all gathered there ; and they desire to state that all bills and expenses for that occa sion were incurred without their consent or knowledge and that the collection asked for was not ap- * !

R'C. SH0CKLEY , 'Clerk 1 ' 1-r r proved by them. On Saturday the celebration in honor of little Lucv Stilwell was , held on Blackberry Lake at Milton Latta's place. Aft-sr a dinner spread on the grass ths meeting was called to order by C. W. Bennett. The quartette sang a hunting song. Mr. Bennett then introduced Mr. Milton Latta , who gave a vivid rehearsal of the search to find the lost child , after which the quartette sang "The Vale of Night Descends. " The call then for all who had saddle horses was made and soon a large troop was formed. A few instructions by the captain and the command , for ward march , was given. One could not repel a thrill of admiration as those men and boys whose lives have been largely spent in the saddle , moved orderly forward by fours and formed in a long search ing line to represent the real search. In a short time Lucy was found and brought in amid cheers and waving of hats. Various pictures were taken of the gathering. An exten sive write up will be made later giv ing in detail the events of the day. Grant Spain has moved his res taurant into the remodeled store building north of Shepard's bar ber shop.
