The Border Days executive
committee has held a number of
sessions this week and at a meet
ing Monday decided to abandon
the plan to improve the grounds
west Of the city in time for this
fall s show and the big event will
be staged at the ball park where
it was SO successfully put on last
year.
In anticipation of larger crowds
and additional acts and perfor-
mances the committee has arrang-
ed to acquire approximately seven
acres Of ground lying south of the
present ball park which will be
enclosed within the Border Day
grounds and the present fence
around the ball park will be en-
larged and heightened to en-.
close the entire lot. 1t is also
the plan of the committee to
vacate the street running along
in front Of the Bowman and Bris.
coe residences in order to acquire
needed room for the big show.
Increase Seating Capacity.
The seating capacity of the
grandstand will be materially in
creased and when the gates are
thrown open on September II
seating capacity of from 5000 to
1000, exclusive of the bleachers
and private boxes, will be ready
for the crowds. The bleachers
will seat thousands also and the
private boxes, new feature of
which there will be number in
front Of the grandstand and
bleachers, will probably aceommo-
date several handred more.
The committee is united on the
plan of furnishing ample room
for all the acts and performers as
well as comfortable seating
facilities for the crowds and has
devoted great deal of time to
the solution of the question. The
preparations made along this line
so far would indicate that ample
Accommodations for all will be mad.
However, the committee in charge
will be in readiness to erect ad-
ditional bleachers on a days no.
tice should the excess crowds de-
mand it.

Children 8 Day.

Children's Day.
A crowded house greeted the children
of the Methodist Sunday School when
they presented their Children IS Day Pro
gram last Sunday evening The beauti-
full day brought out both young and
old. At the morning services five
babies had been baptised and this ten
der service had stimulated interest in
the evening program, consisting of
songs, drills, recitations and concert ex-
ercises participated in by about forty
children and young people from the
various grades. The effort of the little
people are always appreciated and the
occasion furnished no exception. One
and all played well their parts. The
offering amounting to six dollars, goes
to swell the Children's Fund, fund
administered by the Methodist Board
of Education in aid of poor and de-
pendent students.

Paul D. Sargent, acting director of the
office of public roads in the United

effect that the department will send an
expert road builder here this summer to
give a practical demonstration OF road
building. The expert is to be accompani-
ed by an eminent lecturer on the subject
Of good roads. The date for the road
building days is not yet decided upon
