that it was the finest parade ever seen
on the streets of this village, and
many say, none finer in the county.

the surrounding country and had
there been clear day, without doubt
there would heve been record break

The field sports began at 1 O'Clock

We're Prof. Fletcher and A. O. Austin;
starter, @. V. Wiley. The tug of war
between the village team and the
team from the e. L Chandler Co., ten
men on each side, was won by the
village team.
During all these conte is there was
more Or less rain, but the large crowd
that braved the storm was good ma
tured and enjoyed the sports. 1t final
ly began raining in earnest and the
ball game had to be called off to the
great disappointment of all.
The closing event of these enjoyable
entertainments was held in the Opera
hall on Saturday evening when a
| grand concert was given under the
able leadership Of M M. Taplin. Even
though it rained almost the entire
evening, there was large audience
present. Since the writer took part
in the concert he can only give YER
dict of the audience which was, that
it was number one. Miss Margaret
Robinson of Lyndonville, recent
graduate of the Emerson School OF
OratOry, gave several readings to the
great delight of the audience, which
recalled her again and again. The
new piano was thoroughly tried and
found to be most excellent instru-
ment. and beauty besides.
The net proceeds were $341 go, and
everybody is highly elated.
The lecture committee wish to take
this opportunity to most heartily
thank all who, in any way whatever

Salt Lakes.

The Great Salt lake is gradually dry.
ing up, and the inhabitants Of Salt
Lake City seem quite surprised. They
ought not to be. All salt lakes owe
their salinity to the fact Of their hav.
ing no outlet, and lake without an
outlet is dying lake.
Nor is death usually long delayed,
speaking geologically. Lakes Koko
Nor and Lob Nor were undoubtedly
extensive inland seas not so very many
decades ago, yet Sven Hedin found
them reduced to mere acrid puddles
set in the midst of well nigh limitless
salt deserts that once were their beds.
The terrible Taklamakan desert, too,
IN which Hedin nearly died Of thirst,
was once the bed of just such a lake.
So also were the salt deserts Of Persia.
Northern Tibet is studded with salt
lakes in process of desiccation. The
Aral and the Caspian seas were at one
time far more extensive than is now
the case, proving that they, too, are IN
dergoing the inevitable process of des-
location to which all such bodies Of
water are sooner or later invariably
subjected.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.
