After the more serious events like the race for four-year-olds and under and the fat man’s race have been run off it helps the fun of a Sunday School Picnic or Garden Party to have a few more bur- lesque competiti. ns. Everyone knows and enjovs thegPotato Race, the Egg- andâ€"Spoon Race and the Thread and Needle Race but there are a few which are not so well known. Newspaper Race. For this each contestant is given two folded newspapers, one for each foot. The object is to move the papers along with the hands so as to step on them all the time, anyone step- ping off the paper must go back and start again. This race may be varied by using inverted flower pots instead of newspapers. Honeymoon Special. This race, of course, is run by couples. Each couple is given a suitcase which they must carry to the end of the course, open, sort out the clothes which it contains, put them on, carry the empty suitcase back to the starting point ,and reâ€"pack the clothes. The more ridiculous the clothes are the funnier the effect. For the lady pack an old-fashiond coat, an enormous scarf and an over-trimmed hat; for the man a small boy’s hat, an old raincoat and a gaudy ‘tie makes a neat outfit. Buit‘con Race. This is also for couples. The girls stand in a row at the far end of the course and each one is given a button and Cl piece of thread. Each boy runs to his partner, she threads the needle, sews the button on the lapel of his coat and he runs back t.‘ the starting point. Zoological Race. This causes much amusement. Each competâ€" itor draws from a hat a card on which, there is the name of the animal bird or reptile which he is supposed to represent, and the character must be kept up all through the race. For instance, whoever draws “Snake" must wiggle and walk with a creeping motion, hissing; the “Horse” neighs and gallops or trots; the “Frog” progre: cs by means of hops; the “Duck" waddles and quacks; the “Sparrow’ chirps and hops with both feet together, and so on. The unearthly noises which result from this‘menagerie are, of course, part of the fun. In this race handicapping is necessary. Snakes and Ducks must start well in advance of Horses and Dogs. But the difficulty of the race lies rather in keeping up the character than in actual speed. Needle-inâ€"a-Haystack Race. Half a dozen knitti 1g needles are hidden in a pile of hay and a corresponding number ->f competi‘gors hunt for them. The first to arrive at an appointed plvee with his or her needle wins the heat. Tortoise Race. This is oxi bicycles and is always popular. The object of the competition is to be last instead of first to reach the end of the course, but the riders must not dismount or put a foot on the ground in order to do this. Soda biscuit Race. To see who can be first to whistle after eat- ing a soda biscuit. Cherry Race. For this a number of plates must be provided each containing an equal number of cherries. The cherries must all be eaten and the stones returned to the plate with the hands tied behind the back. In keeping with our aim to maintain The Liberal as a purely Canadian newspaper free from Americanized sy di- cate productions the Editor has secured the Canadian jourâ€" nalist, Joan Selkirk, for the contemplated Woman’s Page. This new department will be of general interest to eva- body but is chiefly for women with something to please the kiddies as well. We want our readers to suggest a name for our new page. One Dollar is offered for the most suitâ€" able name submitted. This contest closes on July 3lst. If there is no suitable title submitted by that time we will have to strain the Editorial brain sufficiently to think up one for ourselves, and will be forced to award ourselves the prize. The contest is open to any resident of York County and the Editor will announce his decision in the issue of August 5th.

This meant days of preparation beforehand Mother and the big sisters bakingI bread and buns and cakes, cooking chickens and pickled pork, bringing the last crock of apple butter up from the cellar, cutting large sand- wiches and finally packing every- thing in the wooden pails which \ 'ould come home from the picnic full of berries. Father and boys were b1. 'y too, for they had to go to drive th big wagons and had to do extra wrgk so as they could spare the day. I" d little Celia helped everybody, es- ; r cially the summer she was five; e'."‘ry other year she had been left a: home with Grandma but this year Mother had said she might .go too. It meant an early start in the mor- ning for the berry patch was nearly ten miles away and it was a rough trip over the rough corduroy road Celia was hardly awake when she was dressed and given her breakfast and then they were off in the cool morn- ing as the sun was just getting up. When they arrived at the patch Celia was given a little pail of her own to fill and until dinner time she picked very well, always keeping close to Mother or one of the big sis- ters. But after the jolly picnic she became more venturesome and wan- dered off by herself. The older ones didn’t worry as each one thought she was with someone else. And Celia didn’t worry either, she was having a lovely time. She strayed on through the woods and came to a little stream where she played for a while, she ate all her berries and drank out of ithe berry pail and picked a bunch of flowers to take back to mother. But when she wanted to go back to Moth- er she couldn’t find the way! She wandered on and on, crying and call- ing, until she was tired. out. Then at last, too sleepy to go any farther, she crept under a bush and went fast asleep; but first she hung her little red socks which she had got wet in the stream, on a branch to dry. Meanwhile Mother, thinking Celia was still with big sister, Went home with the first load of berrypickers. The others gradually drifted back to the wagons and started for home also, thinking Celia was with Mother. And what consternation when they arrived there! “Where’s Celia?” as- ked everybody “Where’s Celia?” But Father and the boys didn’t wait to ask questions. Tight-lipped, they ran for their guns and fresh horses and lanterns and started off, chores quite forgotten, for Celia was lost in the bush! How they searched, up and down through the berry patch, crossing and reâ€"crossing the little stream, calling, calling, calling. Then the moon rose and shone through the trees as bright as day and helped them in their trouâ€" ble. As dawn broke Father was almost giving up hope when suddenly he saw something red on the branch of a low tree. Stooping, he lifted the branch and there was Celia curled up fast asleep. “I knew you’d come, Father she said drowsily as she cuddled down on his shoulder. I wasn’t afraid even when I woke up once and saw three great big doggies playing in front of my tree.” Berrieess and Bears Her father knew that there Were no dogs in the neighborhood so he looked down at the soft sand at his feet. It was as he thought. The ground was covered with BEAR TRACKS! mured never This good old world we live in, Is mighty hard to beat, We pick a thorn with every rose But aren’t the roses swaet?
