FIaa DAY for oraa Jubilee.

Des Moines, May 27.-The dragging
of the roads of the state as the most
patriotic way of celebrating flag day.
Saturday, June ID, has been approved
by tho state highway commission,
which has named that day as drag
day for Iowa. Considerable success
has attended the road drag jubilees
held in several live Iowa towns, and
the highway commission believes that
the time is ripe for the farmers of
the state to unite in one grand road
dragging jubilee, Commercial clubs
in the various cities over the state,
as we'll as the farmers, are requested
to get behind the movement. The ad.
visibility of the commercial clubs
offering prizes for the joint celebra-
ton day has been suggested by the
commission. Every farmer In Iowa is
asked to decorate his team with an
American flag and drive it to the
nearest market place hitched to an
old fashioned king drag. The univer-
sal display of the flag and the drag
should make the jubilee great sue
cess, members of the commission be-
lieve.

Union services that have been held
under the auspices of the Mahaska
County Federation for the past few
weeks, was held at the Central NJ E.

weather a large audience was present
and the service assumed the form of
"a get together" service for the sup
port and encouragement of the Fed
eration'S future work. During the
evening special music was provided
by the Hawkeye Male Quartette and
by Carl Woodford with his violin.
President Yer Ploeg, of the Fedora.
ton presided and DR.. |. o. Kemble
offered the opening prayer.
Prior to the presentation of the
speakers, Chairman Yer Ploeg made a
few informal remarks. in which he
stated that although this campaign so
far had resulted in favor of the tenn
perance people. that the work and re-
spOnsibility had not ceased and the
work of the Federation in the en-
forcement of law was to go on I'M
ceasingly. He was gratified with the
hearty support and encouragement of
the people and predicted still great
er victories in the future. The ex
penses of the campaign had been
about $1,000 and about 800 was need
ed by the Federation in order to bal
ance accounts.
It was proposed to hold a large ban
quet in June and for this purpose a
committee was appointed to make
necessary plans and arrangements
and If needed to appoint other COM
mittees as they were required. DR..
John l. Tony, Mrs. B. J. Snyder, Mrs.
S. J. Dutton, Miss Helen Jordon and
Mrs. w. I. Holmes we're named as this
committee Frank NJ. Collard. Of
Cedar Rapids, was the first speaker
and he congratulated the people on
the results reached. The campaign
had been peculiar in some respects
IN that It had been a campaign of edu-
cation along the more practical side
of the temperance question, and the
money side OF the proposition had
been emphasized and enforced to a
marked degree.
Other localities are greatly inter,
ested in the outcome in Oskaloosa and
during the present campaign over
forty of the prominent business men
of Iowa have been in Oskaloosa to
assist in the work. Mr.. Collard was
followed by Rev. Roy e. Deadman, OF
the Christian church, Rev. Alfred
Cave, of the Congregational church,
Rev. s. j. Malone, of the United
Presbyterian church. and by DIR. ID.
NJ. Edwards, of Penn College, all OF
whom emphasized some important
feature OF the work At the close a
vote of thanks was given to Mr.. Col.
lard and the officers OF the Mahaska
County Federation for the excellence
of the work done in this campaign.
