monotonous scenes of winter bannockburn schoolpicnic the annual picnic held in millers grove- on monday afternoon under the auspices of bannockburn school wis very success ful in every respect upwards of one hun dred and fifty picnickers having been pres ent the tug of war seemed to be the all important eveut of the afternoons enjoy ment and the bannockburn team were extremely anxious about it lest some other team should prove too many for them bat their challenge was not accepted by any other school section iu consequence of this sides were- chosen from among those present and a lively pull took place with messrs john minn and alex gordon act ing as captains the teams were as fol lows john mann john shaw alex law- son graham mcdonald wo shaw and arch mann against alex gordon john hunter
