A Trip to Steamboat Springs.

"Get the tickets while I watch
for the lunch," "Has the watermelon
come yet?" "I want a
seat on the shady side of
the car." These and like
exclamations were heard as
a merry party of summer
school teachers and students
gathered about the V. and J.
motor car bound for steamboat
Springs at 1 P.M.
Beside the huge clothes
basket of lunch containing
food for all, each jolly
picnicker carried a lunch
basket a carton of olives,
a roll of sandwiches, or a
bag of fruit.
[Even?] Miss Day, although
she left her package of
sixteen ham sandwiches
on the depot platform, a
tempting dinner for the first
hungry dog, smilingly entered
the car carrying aloft a
small box of candy. Miss
Howe struggled on with a
huge water melon that measured
2 1/2 ft by 4 ft for actual weight
apply to Mr. Morton.
