HlA reign is supreme, and the crown roy

the glinting beams of scarce n'x suns
have played hide and seek, and proud
father and happy mother, and submissive
brothers and slaters, gracefully acknowl

the home circle.
The little tots, and a few who were
not so 4llminutlve, from the neighborhood
of Haxlc, Third and fourth streets, with
fall basnets and Hamper*, and everythin^,
ehe calculated to enluace the pleasure ot
a ttrst-ciasa picnic, were placed aboard
the South Macon car last Thursday mora
les for* a Jaunt and outing at Ciump’*
Park. And a happy-fated group they
were, as the smiles of anticipated pleasure
passed over the.r features. The grou»>
was In chafge rtf Miss Agn*s Taylor, as-
sited later by Mrs Bamuie Pitlnian, Mrs.
John Pair and Airs. Bealer, who during
he day were indefatigable und untiring
in their efforts to Tuake a highly enjoy
able season for all. They were gathered
around the table after a romp and ramble
over the grounds and pavilion, and lor
un hour they. Hushed und hungered by
the exercise, feasted to satiety on the
good things provided by Indulgent parents
and friends who saw to their wants. At
the setting of the sun they were all safe
at home, without accident of nny nature
whatever.
