tory. Fully 10000 good road boosters

cided to mark every telephone pole
on the route from one end of the
state to the other. Two hundred metal
signs and the same number of wood
signs will be ordered Immediately.
One of the first things to be done will
be the marking Of the route through
all the towns on the road. The mem
bers of the committee appointed to
take charge of this work are w. M.
Kelley of Washington, Louis Evens Of
Des Moines, and W. H. Fowler Of
Pella.

MAY HOLD ANNUAL
? |C MIG At HOME
MORRELL's EMPLOYEES DISCUSS.
ING PLANS FOR THEIR YEARLY
OUTING NOW.
SOME FAVOR KEOKUK.
Many Desire to See Big Dam; Circus
Day, August ID, Is Date Most
Pleasing; Committee Is
Appointed.

I Talk is now rife among the hun.
dreds of packing house employees as
! to the date and place of holding the
annual picnic This outing has been a
feature with the company for the past
score of years, and every year some
/ place is decided upon and the plant
| shut down in order to enable those
employed there to take the day off for
pleasure. Their wages go on, notwith-
standing the absence from duty. For
several years they have gone to some
city within fifty to 100 miles from OF
tumwa and special trains have always
been run to accommodate the p1cnick-
ers. This will be the nineteenth an
nual outing.
The meeting of the P H. M. A. A..
executive committee held this week
appointed the men who will have
charge of the outing this year A. b.
Osler, Joe Hanrahan and Carlton
Hughes were named. The matter Of
place is still to be decided although
considerable talk has been INDUCED in
relative to suitable city that will be
convenient. Among the places men.
toned have been Fairfield, Keokuk
and at home in Ottumwa. Many have
expressed desire to go to Keokuk,
but the matter of a reasonable rail-
road fare is the question that causes
hesitancy on that point. All want to
view the wonderful power dam, and
Keokuk people are DESTROYS of having
the Morrell employees for its guests
again. That city has been used before
and pleasant time was had.
~ a
would hold the picnic on August IA,
when the Barnum & Bailey circus will
show in this city. They argue that it
would be less expensive and supply an
ohting that -wodld not prove fatiguing
as a trip out of the city. Just what Is
to be done remains to be seen as the
committee has much time between
now and August IA to decide.

Mrs. G. G. Carpenter, sister Of the
