It was a day of fun. fesstlag and friendship. And yet. In the Isnguage of Hiram's candid confeaslon, "It wsrn't no oncommon good day fur plcknlckln', nuther." A aptendld. big gathering of near relatives snd Invited guests met at the old Oaatan home place of the Emanuel Rudlelll family yesterdsy and spent the dsy In the reunion of the children, grand-children and great-grand-chlldren of the parents of the older members of , the family line.

Three generations were there; and no gathering of kinsfolk could have boated a fairer, prettier or more ac complished group of members, as few reuld claim a line so honorable and so little unbroken. A beautiful day It wss. a gay board was apread and an abundance of health and Cheer was In evidence: while the eld people snd the young people sparred for po sition, parrying on the one aide, light admonition Which, In turn, was met by revs-rent witticism In defense. The meeting Is annual, and many hopes s bound for the serious good fun and fellowship when the family meets It self again one year from the day. The mule waa there, the boys were there, the big family was there to see snd meet each Other, but, desplts the gsy, glad echoes which still best In upon ths gusrdeO ways of memory for one who waa there by Invitation, here's luck to the hasard, In the modesty of Hiram, "an It warn't no oncommon good day for plcknlckln', nuther," I E.
