|BER|ANS At FRANKLIN,

The fair for the benefit of the Catho-
lie Church. held Saturday and Sunday
at Franklin. under the auspices OF
Franklin Council No. 1920, Knights OF
Columbus, was success. 1t was esti
mated that fully 2oO0 people attended.
The total proceeds were S937.
One of the interesting features of
the program on Sunday was a live
bird shoot for a gold medal. The
teams and scores were as follows:
New Iberia
l.. +. Lalland, 10 straight.
Leonard Mestayer, 8 out of TO-
Franklin
Aug. Ehrhardt. 10 straight.
A. B. Chaderick, 8 out of 10.
The score indicated that the New
Iberia team, as a team. WAS the victor
As the medal was designed for an in
dividuas the tie between Ebrhardt and
Lalland, 1t was adiudged, should be
decided by another shoot. six of the
remaining II birds being allotted to
each contestant. Lalland led the way
by dropping the first ; birds and miss
ing the 4th. Ehrhardt followed and
killed his first 3 birds, missing the
fourth. Lalland bagged his 9Th bird
and Ehrhardt tied the score again.
There remained but one bird apiece,
the score tie, Il dead birds to the
credit of each, interest on tip-toe. and
all eyes on the gunners, when Lalland
took his position for his last shot.
That bird went down. Ehrhardt scor-
ed another tie. A toss of coin, there
being no more birds, awarded the
medal to Ehrhardt.
Our boys declare that no host could
be more hospitable, generous or con
than were their Franklin
friends.
The riding tournament was another
good attraction. John r. Colgin, an
Dther Tex 1berian, was the winner Of
The first prize.

went out through the keyhole. The
next day she came with three bottles

the fairy. they contain your sons

Now when the time came for Sam
