The foregoing program is subject to
slight changes to provide for addition
al events.
An entrance fee of 10 per cent will
be charged for all horse races, ex-
cept the ladies race.
The decorations committee makes
special request through the Ga
zette that both business houses and
residences, especially along the route
of parade on the 4th, be prOfusely
decorated. 1t is the desire of all con-
cerned to make the town as pleasing
to the eye as possible.
S. Il. Stanton will have charge as
marshal of the day, and Judging from
the record he has made in the past in
a similar position, the public is as
sured that the evnts will be started
promptly on time, and there will be
no tiresome and annoying delays.
Provisions will be made for keeping
perfect order, and while every latitude
will be given celebrators, no unseemly
conduct will be permitted
There will be rest rooms provided
for visitors, and every resident of the
town will join in an effort to make
strangers feel at home.
Now that the final arrangements
have been made, let everybody forget
any petty grievances and join hands
as a whCle community in making the
celebration of 1913 the greatest event
in point of pleasure that has ever
taken place in OkanOgan county.
