TO Organize.

Recently at an informal meeting.
in this city, of quite a number of peo-
pie from the South. the idea of get
ting all of the Southern people in the
valley together for days outing or
a picnic, was brought up an met with
such favor that a meeting was called
for Thursday evening, August 29th
at p. m. in the rooms of the Rhone-
Walker Realty company, over the
Union Trust and Banking company
for the further discussion of the pro-
ject, and for making definite arrange
ments to carry it out If enough peo-
pie We're present or signifed their
willingness to aid in the matter to
make il a success.
Everybody from the South or who
has lived in any of the Southern
states, including Missouri, is request
ed to attend the meeting on next
Thursday evening, to discuss, plan
and aid in the matter.
The idea was first suggested by
Rev. George f. LeClere, who came to
the valley two years ago from Texas.
While he is a great booster for the
valley and has invested largely in
ranch property here, he has not for
gotten the seventeen good years he
spent in the Lone Star State, and
feels that 1t would be pleasant for the
people of the South to get together
for day and get acquainted.
There are not enough people here
from any one Southern state" he says
Ito make a very big picnic, but IL
those from all these states get to-
gether, we will make a pretty good
showing. No politics and no theology
goes in this gathering. we will Just
get acquainted, discuss ourselves and
