NO RMAL DAY

Yesterday, Normal D ay, was one
that will long be remembered as
one OF the most notable events in
the history of this city. Never be-
fore has this city, or, we believe,
any city in the state, enjoyed such
harmonious picnic celebration as
River Falls did yesterday. From
early morning, when the citizens
and visitors first caught sight of
the beautiful decorations along
Main street, until the closing strain
of the final selection of the band
concert program in the evening,
every incident of the day was pleas
ing, and heartily appreciated by all.
This week we have time and space
for but brief review of the DAYS
program, but in our next issue we
hope to give every detail of the af-
fair thorough mention.
Normal Day actually commenced
when, upon arrival of the morning
train, the parade formed, and head
ed by the Hudson band, with Frank
Thayer as major, marched to Glen
Park. There was brief Interrupt
ton at the park while a slight
shower delayed the appearance of
the speakers and musicians on the
platform. Soon, however, the
clouds dispersed, and for the re-
mainder of the day, the weather
was ideal.
The program, from first TO last,
was listened to with the deepest in
terest by the large crowd, and it
was a splendid one.
THE PROGRAM
Music-Orchestra
Invocation-Rev. D. B. Spencer
Reading telegram of greeting from
former president and Mrs. w. D.
Parker, by Atty. w. P. Knowles
Address of Welcome-Mayor Stiles
Response-Senator Akley
Song-by chorus under direction of
Miss Willett
Address, by local Regent, George
Thompson
Address, by Senator Geo. B. Skomo
Song by chorus

ton from Supt. ]. F. Detzel, of
Nebraska, and Sen. Geo. E. Scott
of the 18th Dist.
Address, by President Crabtree
Address, by .Supt. Bowman of Me-
nomonie
Music, orchestra
After the program the picnickers
assembled in groups for their pic
mic lunches, and after lunch the
athletic program was co mmenced
on the ball grounds. The chief at
traction of this program was the
River Falls-Hudson ball game,
which was won by the latter by a
score of 9 to S. The Hudson band |
provided excellent music during
theseevents and also gave a splen-
did concert on Main street in the
evening.
Normal Day was a big and de-
lightful success in every respect,
and demonstrated clearly and force
fully the deep appreciation which the
people of this city and vicinity have
for those who have workrd so hard
and faithfully to furthur the pros
perity of the River Falls Normal
school.
