BLOOMINGTON CELEBRATED.
The day was warm and pleasant
and there was large attendance at
our celebration. The music by the
Fennimore band was satisfactory to
all, both as TO quality and quantity.
The vocal music by number of our
vocalists was well received. The
Grafton by Prof. Rienow of the
Elkader schools was enjoyed by
nearly all. 1t was a timely and
patriotic talk. Albert Kalt of Glen
Haven read the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. There were speeches by
a dozen of our local celebrities. The
field sports were interesting. Bagley
beat Bloomington on the diamond
by a score of z to 8. The tug of
war between north and west was
not decisive on account of a mis-
understanding. Ed Porter and
Harold Wilson won the three legged
race, Lee Harvey the foot race, S.
Davis the fourteen-year-Old race,
Emil Roethe the sixteen-year old
race, Arthur Goldberg the eight
year old race. A large crowd re-
manned TO see the fireworks IN the
evening, which were worth seeing.
Something like 125 couples attended
the dance in the evening. All
seemed satisfied and contented, and
so we may say that the day was
success.
