At this time of the year the call of the fishing pole and the “deep tangled wildwood” is heard. One of the chief joys of the season and of out door life is the picnics.
The Farmville Enterprise notes three of these this week. A Sunday School picnic of the Episcopal Church was enjoyed at Ballards Friday; the Spizarinktum, a club composed of eight girls of the younger set and a few invited friends had an outing and picnic at Hill Crest, and the |Farmville Post of the American Legion and their invited guests enjoyed a delightful picnic dinner Friday in Monk’s Warehouse. W.G. Sheppard and W.A. Ananes, Post Commander of Fitzgerald, Ga., made the principal speeches of the occasion, while Messrs. T.C. Turnage, J.T. Thorne and J.H. Payior, Commander of the local Post, made short talks. Mr. Sheppard led in the singing of several old melodies.
