farm and the surrounding territory,
Tuesday evening, to hear the twilight
concert and witness the display OF
fireworks that marked the close OF

So dense was the crowd that II en-
reserved for the fireworks display
and ruined about $3.50 worth Of
pyrotechnics. II took the d. u. r.
several hours to take the crowd away
again.
All in all, II was a day long to be
remembered in the northwestern sec

schedule. From the parade in the
morning until the last rocket went
soaring skyward, ther was not q
hitch and everybody haa good time
In spite Of the heat. The committee
In charge had invested about $1,000
In fireworks and q pair OF experts
was brought In from outside to touch
them on. Thus the chance Of an ac-
cident was reduced to a minimum.
The games. drills and athletic
events, during the afternoon. were
also well attended. and the partici-
pants entered into the various events
with enthusiasm.

ton was well received by large
