TO HAVE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
Move in Neighboring City Of Cotton
wood Backed by Business Men.

At meeting held in the village
council rooms Tuesday evening, which
was attended by about 35 of the young
men of the city, decision was reached
to form an athletic association and,
after appointing committees to draf
rules and regulatins and to ascertain
the approximate cost of paraphenalia,
the meeting was adjourned until Sun
day afternoon at o'clock when it is
expected the final organization will be
perfected.
The intention is to rent suitable
room in the center of town, perhaps
the old printing office building, and
equip it with athletic goods, thus pro
viding a place where the young men
and business men of the city may go
for exercise and amusement. The ideas
advanced thus far are to make the as
ISOLATION follow along the lines of the
German turn wereins, where athletic
sports of all kinds may be fostered, and
where the small boys as well as the
older men may join and receive the
benefits of athletic training and physi-
