We attended the St. Johns
Day picni? at Oxford on Thurs
day. We were entertained by
Mr. D. N. Hunt, Rural Carrier
and we ceriainly enjoyed the
visit with this pleasant family.
At Oxford we met several of
our friends and enjoyed the visit
so much. Miss Margeret Hays
went with us. As usual it rained
in Oxford. Arthur Garrison of
No. 8 and Will Trollinger of
Glenco also went to Oxford

The Best Hot Weather Tonic
GROy E’S TASTEIyESS chill TONIC enriches the
uggested at the re.,ent Missou*
ri State-wide conference in St.
Louis, where a proposition _ was
made that each county in Missou
ri should have a rallie on thai
day. This led to the suggestion
that the day’s celebration should
be turned into basket picnics
wherever possible, at points
selected by the county chairmen.
The idea vi^as immensely popular,
and Walter Brown, of Ohio head
of the organization work of the
National Committee, who was
at the St., Louis meeting* at once
took it up with other States.
The result will be a nation-wide
series of county Progressive pic
nics or other meetings on August
5.
