lively newspaper, the Fontanelle OBJ

as charming little girl of ten years

Through misinformation given to
our reporter at Audubon last week one
of our items was made to read that
the Commercial Club were arranging
for Log Rolling for the 80 of August
This item was given US by one who is
not Woodman and evidently he got
things rather mixed. The Neighbors
of Audubon desire to have it known
that the Woodman Log Rolling will
be held by them independently and
without the co operation of any club
The date is August Sd. On that day
we want everyone to come to Audi
bon and participate with US in the
best time ever had in our town. There
will be a free dance, free ball game auC
free lemonade all day long. Severa
hundred dollars will be awarded ir
prizes and every dollar raised by tn
management will be expended tt
make the big crowd happy. An effor
is being made to get speaker of nat
ional repute-one whom people will
come dozens of miles to hear and fee
we'll repaid for the effort.
