OLD SETTLERS PICNIC AT
ELKS' PARK THIS YEAR

The closing OF Central Park for
the season. or rather the fact that
the park will not be open to the pub
lie this summer. has left the Early
Settlers Association Of Las Animas
county without Il place to hold their
annual reunion and picnic. The date
of the dlocst,lcrs' picnic is August
rs. There are no available groves
In close proximity of the city where
a picnic can be held. 1t is probable
therefore that the old timers will go
before the Fair Association and ask
for the use OF E.lks' Park for the pic
mic.
Central Park has never been a
paying proposition the owners say
and IL was decided this year not to
open II. For years II has been the
city picnic grounds as there is ample
shade and attractions there. Aside
from the city league baseball games
lcvcry Sunday there has been nothing
of interest at the park this summer
1t is rumored. however. that the park
Is to reopen for two or three days AT
the time of the department cncamp-
mcnt of United Spanish War Nctcr-
ans and the Dell-ChavcZ boxing con.
test will be staged at the ball parh
