Cle (NG yo ~~ L.EG'ESON, Agent, Dryden a i ithe deceased and Mrs Max Nau- District News MINNITAKI--The Annual school picnic was held at Eagle Lake on Tuesday last, and as usual everybody had a good time. We took our cream to Dryden in the morning, and waited while the Creamery made it into Ice Cream, and had it on the grounds by noon, and of course we all voted it the best ice cream we had ever tasted. Perhaps this was because we did not have to buy it. Just imagine, ten gallons and every bit free. Some of our kiddies were so happy that they could not eat any supper. One kiddie inform- ed us that she had eaten eleven cones, and they were not the five cent cones one buys, for our wait- er was vern generous and filled them as full as possible and many were dangerously overflowing Lunch was served at moon, anc then we. all had a swim, and then there were races, etc., and a Bail Game between the Ladies and Men, and we are pleased to say that tue Ladies won by a score of 27 to 1. We then had supper and the men challenged the ladies to another game, as they were not satisfied with the score. This game was very well 'played by both sides, the result being the same, the ladies winning, but we won't mention the score this time. We would like to comment on the fine playing of Scotty Gibson and A. Maynard, especially the former, who took his defeat so very nicely, when time after time he was put out on first owing to the excellent play of Maggie Lounder and our pitcher, George Ruete, jr. By the way, George took his Dad's hat off once with the ball. All the ladies played well, some even sliding into the basis as good as any of the men. The game only terminated with the dusk, and then we all went the summer vacation. Jack Ayres left, for Dryden on Monday to write his fifth class examinations. Miss W. Rhind returned Mon- day from a visit to Mrs Jacques, at Ignace. Rev. E. Jacque came up be- tween trains on Saturday to visit the Nauman family.

PINE GROVE--A _ lar ge crowd assembled in Pine Grove School [uesday evening, for the purpose f organizing a Young People's Society. Conducted successful by Mr Jack Trot the gathering was quite buoyantly demeanoured. Open for nominations, prelimin- aries. were carried through with- out a hitch. Mr N. Moore and S. Davis were closed for presidental run. Mr Moore carrying highest vote was then called on for a speech, whe proved to be admirably fluent. Miss L.. Mackie carried the un- animous vote of all, and was pre- sent to take the minutes of the first meeting of the Y.P.C. The voted officers for the pro- gram and social committee were Misses B Pollock, and Mildred. Messrs V. Davis and C. Oberg. ° After advocative freedoms the meeting was deferred to a later date in July. The community showed gener- ous appreciation, by gathering in Pine Grove School, Monday, after the said meeting, for a farewell party for Miss Richardson. The remaining evening was spent in home wet, tired, grubby and all he rest of it, but nevertheless as {happy as could be. The men vow" they will get even at a ball game vet.

DINORWIC--The death occur- red on Friday of Frederick Nau- man, aged 53, after a very short illness. The cause being apoplexy. Mr Naumann only ar- rived with his wife from the Old Country just a month ago, intend- ing to build a home ad live near their only daughter Mrs F. Eger, and their two married sons, so his passing away so suddenly was a great shock to the family, to whom 'deep sympathy is felt by all the community. The funeral took place from the home of his son, Max, and the service was held in St. George's Church, Saturday afternoon, by the Rev. E. Jacques, the interment being in the little cemetery adjoin- ing. The church was packed to overflowing and there were several floral tributes, one of which was a spray of violet and carnations from the St. George's Girl's Guild, of which the grandaughters of man are deligent workers. The hymn "Jesus Lover of My Soul," and "Nearer My God to Thee" were sund and in the course of his address, Mr Jacques expressed the sympathy of the community with the family in their sudden sad bereavement. The members of the family who were present as mourners were : MrsEger (daught games, recitations, songs and dancing. Refreshments were 'served at midnight. Amid cheers of farewell a light-powered car, with Iir E. Davis at the wheel, drew up to receive Miss Richardson, while the low tingle "of cans made of tin were heard above the din. Upon inspection was later discov.red @ that the ' zealous merry-makers had nicely decorated the honoured car. We are glad to say we are having Miss Richardson with wus next term.
