Many Expected to Make 1t DecOra-

The Century run given on Memorial day by
the members of the Century Road club prom
ises TO be much larger affair than the pro-
moters at first anticipated Names are being
received by the local centurion, Archie
Matheis, 26S Nelson avenue, from all parts of
the city, among them being many ladies. The
invitation Is extended to everybody, and
good days fun on the wheel Is promised. Ar
rangements have been made at Mortified for
a good dinner for as many as care to 20.
The hotel being considered too small, Odd
Fellows hall has been secured, where dinner
will be served, but it will be necessary to
know just how many will start. Everybody
is therefore requested to send in their names
as soon as possible to the local centurion.
1t Is believed that at least three hundred
riders will start on this run from the two
cities. How many will return on their wheels
will be told later. The time scheduled will be
followed near possible to this time card:
