1t is safe to say that no time
in the history of Baraboo has
such a successful event been
carried out by the business
men of the city as the one that
took place in the shape of a
a Booster parade under the
supervision of the Commercial
club on Monday.
1t was Labor Day and the
first time that it has ever been
celebrated in a fitting way.
Every work shop in the city
was closed and the business
folk lined up in one automobile
caravan and went for an outing
into the country. Before the
day was over each merchant,
labOrer or professional man,
who was on the trip, realized
that it was the most profitable
day he had ever spent. Each
one felt that he had grown

The First Stop

The weather outlook was ideal and
the merry crowd sped along the level
pavement in an eastward direction to
Johnson's corners, some five miles from
the city. Here the Baraboo band left
the cars and forming in circle beside
the road played couple of selections
for the small group of farmers who had
gathered at the place.
Soon the journey was taken up again
and the line of cars extending along
the road for three miles, wound it's way
over hill and valley and crossing the
Baraboo river at fuckers bridge,
mounted the Baraboo ridge to the Ach-
terberg farm.

ing the day and of the good they had
derived from it. "The trip, said
Mayor Thuerer, twas to promote each
other welfare, not merely each indi-
dual's selfish business motive.
Attorney E. A. Evans closed the
speaking program with short talk at
North Freedom and he expressed the
sentiment Of every person Con the trip
when he said, 1.-THE people of Baraboo
who have enjoyed this ride today are
bubbling over with JOY tonight. -
nome Sweet Home
About O'Clock the cars began to
leave for Baraboo and it was beauti-
full sight to see them all lighted up as
they rolled along the road on the home
ward spin. Not only was it beautiful
sight but it was an evidence of the
prosperity of Baraboo. One lady in
North Freedom was amazed when she
learned that the great delegation OF
cars were all from Baraboo and
said she thought they had come from
7 all over the United States. She said
it was the greatest sight she had ever
witnessed.
When the cars arrive I'd in BarabOo
they assembled about the square and
before the crowd broke up selection
was played by the band on the bank
corner.
Were No Serious Accidents.
Aside from a few punctures and
minor breaks on cars there were no
accidents. The members of the COM
mercial club, who had charge of the
trip, had everything planned SO per
fectly that things ran smoothly all
through the tour.
Thanks to Commercial Club.
The people of Baraboo are greatly
indebted to the members of the Bara-
boo Commercial club for their efforts
an promoting this successful event.
Especially are tie people grateful to
the president of the club, L. S. Van
Orden and those who acted on the COM
mittee in planning the trip; William
OFT, James McGuan, William Ode, Paul
Gust, A. r. Reinking and Roy Peck.
Let's Have More.
Why not let this be the initial trip
and have one of the same nature every
Labor Day? The value to the city of
Baraboo and to each individual bust
nees man cannot be estimated. The
Commercial club, as was stated by one
of the days speakers, has justified it's
existence if it never does another thing
for Baraboo, in the planning and carry
ing out of the present trip.

Greeted by Cattle

The second stop was at the Achter-
berg farm where the band once more
furnished music, Here T. F. Risley
delivered a short address telling the
farmers that the object of the Booster
trip was to create a cooperative spirit
between the farmers and the business
men of Baraboo.
While the band was playing it was
amusing to see a herd of about three
dozen cattle come Looping from feeding

The next stop was at the Cheese fac

Farm ers Along Roadside

All along the roadside little groups
of farmers gathered to welcome the
BarabOO people. Men in the fields
nearby stopped work and waved their
hats in greeting. Now and then a ru-
raj school was passed and the teachers
allowed the children to witness the pa
rade. 1t was pleasing sight to see
the smiling faces and waving hands of
the country boys and girls.
The third stop was at Alloway in
Caledonia. Here the band played a
couple of selections and the trip was
continued.

Sidelights on Sports
BY A. II. C. MITCHELL

Gilmore would have had no more
chance in getting publicity than a
SNOWFALL in the Internal regions.
But he played his cards at the
psychological moment and in "a
hours the Federal League got
about 100000 worth of advertise
ing through the signing OF Joe
Tinker.
HE leader of the Feds has
worked secretly and whenl
man does that he has the other
fellows guessing. Included in the
other fellows" are the reporters.
Many conflicting statements are
being made regarding the "out-
laws" however. In fact, the pro-
motors of the organization are
giving out conflicting statements,
An Indianapolis magnate says,
for example. that Tommy Leach
has been signed to manage the
Pittsburg club. Leach denies It.
So does Gilmore and so does
Barbour. president OF the Pitts
burg club. But while several Of
the Federal League club owners
have their signals mixed and their
wires crossed Gilmore has thus
far said but little and has made
good on his statements.
It HE Federal League Is long
way from winning its fight
but so far Its leader in the per-
son of Mr.. Gilmore has created a
favorable impression on the base
ball public.

~ GORGE TYLER, southpaw
r of the Braves, says he pre-
fers to stick with Stall
lines, but If he is snapped to st.
Louis he will jump to the Fed
eral League.
EVERY ball player has an aver
II sion to playing in St Louis
because the weather is so ter
rifically hot in summer. 1t is bad
enough to have to go there as
member of visiting team for
eleven games a year, but to be
there S0-odd days in a playing
D., season is something the average
ball player ducks whenever pos
sible.
I T Is the general opinion among
ball players that the reason
the st. Louis clubs make such a
poor showing in the American
and National League races Is be-
cause OF the hot weather that
prevails there most of the sum-
mer
Lou Criger, who played a sea-

say: "Many's the night I have

rather play for $1,000 In Boston
than for five times as much in

THIS Mr.. James A. Gilmore,
president of the Federal
League, seems to be master of
the art of publicity. He jumped
from the coal business to become
leader of the outlaw" organiza-
tion. Doubtless he realized that
his talents in the publicity line
were being wasted in the coal
business. Publicity in the coal
business Is not the right kind Of
publicity. II usually runs to ref
erences to coal barons and the
numerous advances in the price
Of the commodity
THAT didn't suit Mr.. Gilmore
Besides he said that coal
baron stuff was a joke and that
there wasn't much money in coal.
So. although a novice in the
baseball business. he took a
plunge and has succeeded in an
incredibly short space Of time In
