THE SAITH BAND AT
DELTA'S CELEBRATION

Sigourney, Aug. Gully 200 people
from Sigourney boarded the Rock
Island passenger train Wednesday
morning bound for Delta to attend
Deita's second annual good roads day
celebration. The coaches of the train
were partially loaded when 1t reached
Sigourney and after the crowd from
here got on the train was filed to its
full capacity. The town Of Delta was
nicely decorated for the occasion and
presented gala appearance, but the
weather was against them. 1t COM
menced to rain about 10 o'clock in the
morning and kept on most Of the day
at intervals and on account of the
Indictment weather the crowd was not
large and the people Of Delta felt their
disappointment keenly. However, a
good program was carried out. In the
morning at 1890 Gov Clarke COM
menced his address from the platform
in the school yard, but the rain drove
him away and they had to adjourn to a
church where he finished his speaking,
good sized audience being present
In the afternoon the program con-
sisted Of speeches by local men and
music. A comic opera entitled: THE
New Minister" was given by the Will
liamsburg choral union which was
much enjoyed by the audience. The
Fifty-fourth regimental band OF Ottum-
wa entertained the crowd with their
excellent band music at intervals dur
ing the afternoon.

MANY BENEFITED
THROUGH ICE FUND
COURIER READERS ARE LIBERAL
Nv DONATIONS FOR AIDING
cITY's POOR.

With the return Of warmer weather
the need for ice increases, and with It
the suffering of those mothers and
babes who to do not have the where
withal to keep supply OF this common
convenience IN the house.
Those upon whom the world smiles
need not think about that which keeps
their food sweet and fresh from one
meal to the next, for the Ice man stops
and keeps the box filled without any
attention from the housewife. But the
mother who does not know the boon of
having this supply attended to and who
knows that the milk which she buys
for the baby will in the course OF a
few hours become sour and unfit for
the little one Is deserving of the as
sistance Of more fortunate men and
women.
1t takes but few cents to buy a
cake OF ice large enough to bring joy
and happiness to many homes found
right here In Ottumwa. A dollar will
keep the family supplied for many
days, and may be the means Of bring
Ing the glow back to some baby's
cheeks. or the smile back to some tired
woman.
The Courier is asking it's readers to
consider this serious question with
which the poor Of the city are con-
fronted and to aid in making 1t pos
sible for them to enjoy the comforts Of
the frozen commodity To date $3.50
has been contributed. A committee OF
three women who make q study of
conditions among Ottumwa's poor are
aiding The Courier In the distribution
Of ice tickets purchased with the fund.

TRAFFIC RULES
TRANSFERS ACCUSED OF CUT
TING CORNERS AND VIOLATING
REGULATIONS.

The drivers Of vehicles of all kinds
especially transfers are showing a
lapse of memory as regards traffic
regulations according to Commissioner
Bremhorst. The official In speaking of
the disregard for street rules by the
drivers said that many are cutting the
corners and otherwise violating the
law governing traffic. The head OF the
police department does not intend to
permit this to continue and it is prob
able that reminder will be given
those who disregard the rules. The
taking of the traffic cop of the streets
was not missed for a time because the
people had been inst. Icted how to
drive and consider their neighbours
rights on the down town streets. A
number of persons, chiefly teamsters,
have been reported to have forgotten
the rules or to have willfully taken adj
vantage of the absence of the officer
and abused their privileges on the
streets The police will make an ex-
ample of some of these in order to up
hold the regulations.

sentiment of his fellow countrymen al

slams from Ottumwa will 60 back to

why should we 60 back there and

turn home and take up arms"
: The Courier representative did not
see Mr.. Rice until number of other
Russian employees had been interview
ed and all of those seen gave q mega
tive answer to the query. The general
sentiment seemed to be one Of indif
ference. They are here and able ia
make living, In some cases better
than at their foreign home and none
seem disposed to permit their patri
otism to get the better of their prac
tical judgment. They prefer America
and peace.
When asked IL the Russian govern
ment could compel the return of any
of the subjects of Russia In this city
Mr.. Rice smiled knowingly and said
They will have to catch W. first"

TWENTY SEVEN,
ENTRIES IN RACE

Fairfield, Aug. 6.-The continual
downpour of rain Wednesday after
noon did not in the least dampen the
enthusiasm of the crowds who attend.
ed the second days program of the
Jefferson county fair. Not for many
years has there been such vast crowd
in attendance at the second days ex.
hibition of the fair. 1t is estimated
that fully eight thousand people at.
tended and remained during most of
the day.
The drawing card for this day was
not the excellent races which were
given nor the fine balloon ascension
which occurred during the afternoon,
but was the giving away of the auto
mobile by the merchants of Fairfield.
The car war awarded at 4:30 o'clock
and was given to Belgian resident OF
Fairfield.
In spite of the steady downpour OF
rain the races scheduled for the after
noon were given and with twenty
seven entries in the two races, the 2:20
pace and the 1926 pace there was live.
ly interest taken. 1t is said by COM
petent judges that these two races
were the best which have been wit.
messed in Fairfield for several years.
The thousands of people were good
natured and seemingly bent only on
having good time in spite Of the
nasty weather. 1t was more Of car
nival spirit which prevailed during the
entire day and everybody went home
in happy frame of mind.
Friday, the closing day of the fair Is
expected to be another big day as at
this time the fair association will give
an automobile away.

was a sweet, lovable child, and his
sudden death is great shock to the

WAR HAS AFFECTED
PRICES Of FOODS
oTTUMWA WHOLESALERS RE.
PORT ADVANCE IN MANY
STAPLE ARTICLES.

The war has already affected the
prices Of various food stuffs in Ottum-
wa and more are expected to change
in the near future. Sugar has gone uI
forty cents a bag. or 100 lbs. This is
owing to the fact that the countries
where the war is being carried on are
depended upon for large part OF the
beet supply. and in all probability the
men will be engaged in warfare when
harvest time comes.
Thousands of acres Of foreign wheat
fields will be wasted If the war con-
tinues. The advance in the price OF
American wheat has affected flour
causing an advance Of forty cents per
barrel, or about fifteen cents a sack
Even this is not as much as in some
other cities. Wholesalers report an ad-
vance Of nifty to ffty-five cents per
bushel on beans. Since beans make UP
a large part Of the army and navy bill
of-fare, this Jump Is easily accounted
for.
Canned meats. although not yet at
fected in Ottumwa. are expected to
advance. Canned milk, another pro-
duct which will be in much demand in
the warning countries, has gone ul
from fifteen to twenty-five cents on
the case Cereals are steady at present
but a change is looked for In the near
future. Imported articles, such as olive
oil. canned fish etc. are likely to ad
vance
Vegetables and fruits are remaining
at the same prices and are not likely
to change. Butter and eggs are also
steady. In some cities bakers consider
reducing the size Of their loaves. OF
piled with flour and the retail trade
will not be affected unless big adj
vance takes place.
