Portlind Lumbermen's Picnic Big Affair

The several hundred Portland lumbermen and their families who attended the annual picnic July 2l voted it a huge success, and there wasn't a dull moment from the time the golf tournament started at 9 A. M. until the dancing was concluded at 11 P. N{. The Manufacturers' captained by J. E. Cool, Central Coal & Coke Co. beat the Wholesalers' team. Elmer Xanten, hard-working organizer of the picnic, found time to win the lst prize for low net score.

Jack Dionne, publisher of The Gulf Coast Lumberman, was the only speaker on the program. Mr. Dionne, who with his family is paying an extended visit to the Northwest, in a brief address expressed his pleasure in once more having the opportunity to renew old friendships among Portland lumbermen. The three Misses Dionne charmed the crowd with their splendid dancing in the Charleston contest, and with the assistance of their father won all the prizes in this contest, single and double. Two of these young ladies also won the first and second prizes in the bridge game.
