Fourth CELEBRATION
WAS GRAND SUCCESS

Old time residents of Phoebe
declare that the Fourth of July cele-
brution here this year was one OF
the most successful ever held in the
camp. There was not quite SO mucn
ostentation displayed as on some for
mer occasions nevertheless, every
body had q good time and the COM
mittees having charge OF the arrange
ments came in for a goodly share
of praise from the populace.
Notwithstanding that the holiday
fell on Sunday, the festivities be-
gan on that day with the thunder
ing tones of exploding dynamite.
The patriotism displayed by the cit
liens having charge of this portion
of the pyrotechnics was terrific in
the extreme and long before the sun
began to shoot it's rays over the east
ern mountains many slumberlng CIT
liens were ruthlessly reminded tnat
the Fourth had arrived.
Next on the program was appro-
pirate exercises at Thompson's opera
house at 1920 o'clock, where the
meeting was presided over by Jesse
Simmons. Among the feat-
ures of the occasion was the read
ing of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence by William E. Orr and an ora
ton by Chas. Lee Horsey The sing
ing and flag drill by ten little girls
was greatly enjoyed; while the patri-
otto songs rendered by the choir
made it seem like an old fasnloned
Fourth. There were recitations by
several small children and the song,
"My Own United States" maze q
distinct hit with the assemblage.
In the afternoon, on Lacour street,
there were races for old folks, as
| well as young folks. The nail driV-
ing contest especially arranged 1ol

amusement as any of the happen
