TWENTY-FIFTH ANNUAL MORGANVDLLE PICNIC (Conllnued From Seventh Page.) a quaint picture with its verticle siding and barely visible weatherbeaten coat of white paint, now stands to the east of the grove. It was moved to this point several years ago from another sight just south of the Morgan grove. Here it stood for many years and housed the owner who ran a general store at this road corner.

The old store is still to be seen in Osbern-ville, where it was moved many years ago and now stands in comparative ruin. The store still contains some of the old fixtures among them a rough bar over which the old settler received his drinks. Alwaya Big SaecfM. From the date of the first picnic in 1S88 the Morganville picnic, as it came to be called, has been a great success. Each year the officers of the alliance who have had the picnic have striven to make the picnic more attractive than ever before and their efforts have not been put forth in vain as is testified by the number of people who attend the picnic year after year.

The Farmers' Mutual Benefit association, as it exists at present, is lacking in the original cooperative lunc-tion, but the name is still held to and the farmers support the organization loyally in its present chief function of promoting this big gala day. You would be surprised how many people would want it if they knew you wanted to sell. "3 Lines 3 Times 3 Dimes. A Herald Want-Ad does the business."
