More than 8% picnickers, laden with ca- pacious lunch baskets and attired In sum- mer costumes, hied themselves yesterday to Sunset Park, Santa Cruz Mountains, to attend the annual excursion and outing of Cathedral Council No. 39, Young Men's In- stitute. That every one who took the trip had a good time was evidenced by the smiling faces and expressions of delight seen and heard on the homeward journey. The day was perfect for a plenic and the attendance all that the members of the organization could desire. The crowd was select by reason of the fact that the affalr was strictly invitational. Every- body went to have quiet enjoyment, and in this all were satistied. An excellent band discoursed music throughout the day. The dancing plat- form was crowded with moving couples. Those who did not care to induige in this pleasant pastime rambled through pretty valley or waded in the brook that runs through the picturesque grounds. The committee having the picnic In charge decided that the usual games of the ordi- nary picnic could be dispensed with, and in this dispiaved wisdom. The games wera not missed because of other attractions. During the afternoon an interesting pro- g&mme was rendered in the pavilion. Mr. illiams and Miss Stevens did a graceful cakewalk, Miss Irene Callahan did a fancy dance and Miss Quinn recited.
