Sunday School every Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. We are trying to learn some new songs and would like for every one to come. A large crowd met at the home of Mr. W. R. Joines Friday night and practiced singing. We enjoyed it so much we hope it will not be the last meeting. Saturday night when enroute to a party, Mr. Tedo Koch's mules ran away throwing all out of the wagon. Merritt Singleton was quite bad hurt and the rest bruised and badly shook up. The best mule of the team broke his leg. We were all sorry to hear of Mr. Koch's misfortune but glad there was no one seriously hurt.

Stayton, superintendent; Miss Lilly Joines, secretary and treasurer; Prof. Harbison, Bible class teacher; Mrs. Martin, Intermediate teacher; Ruby Joines, Primary teacher. The box social Saturday night was well attended and the short program given by the pupils enjoyed by all. Uncle Hiram will give us some more good laughs in the future. The cake went to Miss Lillie Joines, the pie to Robert Joines. The net proceeds were $22.61. This will be used in and about the school house for the benefit of the school.

The morning was spent in fishing, W. R. Joines and Mrs. Carvell being the champion fishermen. The young folks played volleyball until the feast was cooked over the camp fire, which consisted of fish, bacon, ducks, sweet and Irish potatoes, besides cakes, pies and loads of other good eats. After dinner everyone took part in either the volleyball or baseball games, Nathan Dahlstrom being the star volleyball player. As the sun was going toward the west a tired but happy bunch started home hoping for another holiday.
